Let me catch a silly firefly trying to do military callouts with guard down like a total larping Bii***atch.
Hunters all day. Don’t come near our cities with your classism and superiority complex. All I got are clap backs when I take your team mates lives.
Naughty Dog will some day shut down the servers.
It's a pretty inevitable conclusion. Even if it lasts much more than expected, let's say once PS8 launches in 2040, and Naughty Dog thinks no one cares about Factions anymore, they'll shut it down.
I hope when that day comes Naughty Dog will have to suffer a storm of shit never seen before. The way they handled Factions (announcing it as part of Part 2, canceling it for Part 2 because they'll release it as stand alone, canceling the stand alone, never releasing Factions with Part 1) is downright disgusting. I still remember some post where some PR guy said "guis we LOVE Factions as much as you guis". Yeah Dog that's how you show love to people you love, by ignoring something until it finally dies?
It's no coincidence people started reverse engineering a Part 2 multiplayer. The fans know in their bones, even if only subconsciously, that one day they'll have no one to rely on but themselves.
input lag?
i’m noticing some slight “lag” or sensitivity issue on ps5. i’ve been recently playing the last 3-4 months after a 5-6 year hiatus. since i’ve picked it up, it played fine. i moved a month ago and since ive been in my new place it feels as if there’s a slight lag, sway or sensitivity issue with my gameplay. scope movement/sway feels off, as i can’t hit my shots to save my life, and i always mained the hunting rifle, and now it feels like im just touching a controller the first time. i can only have solid luck in melee fights and stealth, but aiming and gun play- my inputs suffer greatly. there is seemingly no wifi/connection issues, as my playstation is connected and all is good to go from an internet connection stand point. i did get cox internet and the last place i lived i think the owners had google internet but im not 100% if this is the issue. i made sure the internet i got could handle online gaming. any ideas would be appreciated.
Have you many any pro players/legends recently?
Hey everyone.
I used to play this game back in the PS3 era and even played a bit of competitive games on fraggednation.
There were so many era defining and legendary players like ticemack, xshoT, LudicroudlyLiam, silencedisgolden
Or the world champions Vironz, Lordidude, FABOLES etc.
Are any of them still active?
I started playing again occasionally and of course wondered about the good old days.
I'm kind of nostalgic for the drama, the intense games and race to the crown on FN.
I wrote a song about Factions
I thought it would be fun to write a song from the perspective of a hunter in Factions so here it is
I used AI for the music and vocals but I wrote the lyrics myself and it took a while because I'm not very creative but I think it sounds cool for AI slop 😉
Hope you guys like it

Limit of deaths per match
I always thought that there should be a death limit. Look at this match, doesn’t matter how good you play if your teammate dies 10 times
W_Factions
Has anyone played with that person? I played probably, not exaggerating, 20 Supply Raid matches with him and the entire time he stood and slightly moved up and down but never shot or moved from his spawn point…what is the deal with that? Why would someone sit on a game like that and do nothing. Every match he was 0-0-4/5ish
My ways of fixing the most annoying shit in this game
Ive been playing for years, picked it up again and im losing my mind at the thought of what factions 2 could have been, so here it goes. They are listed from most OP to less.
Combo Shooting: believe it or not this is the worst low skill/high bullshit ratio exploit in the game, and the fact its so widespread and accepted makes it worse:
-Increase holstering/unholstering time, based on a weapon's weight and capacity.
Tactical Shotgun: Close second, it would be as simple as:
- No silencer for this weapon, increase reload time, also decrease base magazine from 3 to 2.
FAT 1: Now hear me out, this perk isnt annoying at all when playing, but it is annoying how absurdly broken it is, it makes no sense, a loadout without this is instantly a weak loadout:
-Reduce efectiveness from 75% (lol) to 40% or so.
Sharpshooter: idk who thought it was a good idea that you would get health for shooting people:
-Simply remove the heals, increase the other %bonuses if necessary
Covert Training: Althought the less broken of the listed here, some adjusting could be done to reduce the frustration of getting shit on by it:
-Make it more expensive OR variable effectiveness based on distance ( user could still be visible in listen mode, just at very short distances, and their shape would be very distorted)
!However my case for covert training is that it would get indirectly balanced by just negating most of the weapons from a silencer, meaning the only true silenced weapons would be bow, crossbow, and 9mm.
Aim goes down when aiming
I have seen that sometimes when I try to aim in, my player aims staright at the ground and not ahead when it should be aiming.
Is this some type of mechanic placed in to stop the aim spam or something or is my game tripping?
Need help with a trophy
I'm trying to get the trophy (knowing the basics) I just need to win a game of survivors but I can't get a game in the public match making because I guess the mode isn't popular.
13 years later and I’m still fining new things about the game
Just randomly found the spot out
