The Cycle is match based FPS where players complete quests while making and breaking temporary alliances. Anyone can attack anyone, and anyone can ally with anyone.

In The Cycle the explored galaxy is controlled by massive Factions, but the mysterious outer reaches are still up for grabs. In their race to control these frontier resources, the Factions need contractors to do their dirty work. You are one of these contractors, competing for objectives such as collecting minerals or hunting wildlife while being careful to avoid or take down the competition.

Features:
A new Frontier: Explore the world of Fortuna III - a hostile, beautiful new world, full of fortune, alien life, and other players looking to take its riches.

Storm: The cycle leaves only a narrow window of opportunity - stay too long, and you will be trapped on the planet.

Pacting: Players can meet on the surface of Fortuna III and join uneasy alliances with one another as they complete contracts
Black Market: Players have a wide arsenal of weapons and gear available to them, all with different playstyles, that can be purchased during a match

Crafting: Players can spend their precious credits on creating new gear to take into the next match

Quests: Shooting may give you an edge - but the best prospectors are those who can take on dangerous jobs for factions during a match

Customization: A wide selection of gear that players progress through, tailoring their character to their individual playstyle, with more options regularly added

On epic games client.. Im lvling on my first faction lv.(lv6)
It's a mix between fornite n borderland. Though game is pretty short. 20mins maximum. Because after that , ur aeroplane will fly away and everyone not evacuated will die.
And take note , for the last 2-3min before evacuating plane fly, opponent faction will camp by the plane to gun down anyone who tries to board the ship. Prepare to buy hp /shield and importantly a bike. It'll make your escape pretty easy.

The video looks cool but there're still no proper guide to the game.

Here's the biggest issue when i started new with a lv1 faction on korolev.
We started out with a secondary gun. U get to buy primary only after u went out killing monsters and doing drillings to get credits. U can also turn in brightcap mushrooms. Primary guns cost 200Credits. Sniper type 500 and Rocket launcher or something is 800.
Shields ,turrets and a temp bike are cost at 150credits. For shield and turrent,u must craft them before u can use in game.

For korolev, u had a weak start untill u craft ur first hammer gun or something. A secondary weapon.
It has 8 shots before reloading, punches 80dmg per shot. Compared to SMG that hits only 30-35 although with 30shots.But that's enough to get u to gun down any starting opponents at start. But if u prefers to use the one that's already at start, u'll find it so weak that it could barely scratch ur opponent.
Especially dealing with folks who had a damn flachette gun. Those are primary guns and they had a burst shot that hits 4-5 shots in one shot. U probably notice that ur shots only hit 30-40dmg on them like stripping off 20% of shield gauge while their shots already strip off your entire shield to 10% left. Some had upgrades that will hit off your entire shield leaving u vulnerable to shots. And it'll surely accompany with a 2nd or 3rd opponent protestant nearby sending u out of the game.

I've not started on the rest of the faction.. And i'm not sure if u can use overlap weapons on different factions. Will try tonight.
