1.  you dont need clan members but it sure is more effective to partner up with people who knows what they're doing instead of running like a headless chicken

2. this is a tactical warfare game, you cannot expect to charge head on without observing your surroundings because there are 32 players on the other side and someone will definitely spot you and start shooting. it is not hard to shoot accurately. another fact that there might be dedicated spotters meaning snipers will use their scope to scout that area to mark targets for his team. Supression fire will also reveal your location in a rather big ass red box

I have once partnered with someone and the entire game he camped on top of a silo and only spot without even firing a shot so that he will not reveal himself, we won that game of course but imagine a huge area near the silo has been marked at all times, tanks, tank mines, land mines, players, all revealed.

3. There are hackers in the game but its fairly easy to spot them. when its too  obvious, others will be calling out that that guy is hacking etc. just do your part and report those buggers.

as for dropping bomb accurately on your tank, its pretty easy too. Just need someone to mark the tank either by scope or getting hit by class perk. It reveals the tank on the map itself and the plane will bombard it.

and one more thing, fly slow when ur up in the air to observe your surroundings. you can spot the tank firing, hard to see but still noticeable. just open ur eyes wide wide
another method i used is when i got killed in an area and i notice quite a number of tanks near that zone. I'll just hop on a plane and bombard that area till kingdom comes.

plane shooting like cannon? they have upgraded a a weapon that hits damn hard but has slow fire rate.
Seems like you're very new to the game, u gotta learn and stop charging like a mad cow like what COD players do

using speakers? best to play with headset, you will know when u r getting shot and also the location where the shot is being fired from.

yeah, took a 1 month break because of some bug issue where my mouse pointer was stuttering like mad and not playable. came back after 1 month and so many new things to try.

This game is not about racking alot of kills, its all about holding/fighting for objectives but alot of ppl prefer to just kill kill kill.

there are times where you see a deadlock  where everyone is fighting non stop in an area. I just hop in one of the taxi trucks and drive all the way to the other end. Players will automatically spawn on ur taxi and capture points that''s far away from the hot zone. you dont need to get off the taxi or cap a point. your role is to allow your team to spawn on you. its a mobile spawn point
that will throw the opposite team off balance and they will start spawning at areas far away from the hotzone and that will allow ur team to push forward. Sometimes gotta sacrifice some fun from killing to win the game.
