I'm pretty new here and I heard about factions since some players are recruiting in the open world, I tried searching for it in the game thinking maybe it's in the PvP but found none(or maybe I just didn't look hard), I was looking for it since I thought I could make a faction since I thought just a simple group or clan like in other games, but after researching a bit I really found few to no introductory about factions. From what I read, it's pretty serious RP groups like there are documents to do or submit and stuff, I wanted to make a small faction or group for the few of my friends since from what I've heard it has some benefits like playing together gives more money and specific stickers or costumes? not really sure my bad.
If someone could enlighten me, like could I make a small faction for like 5-15 members? if we made one, do we need to participate or fight in faction war if there is?(not sure about this but from what I've seen there's like pvp in the open world? so I'm just assuming), are there requirements like we need to RP or play together for specific times, documents?. Sorry for being clueless, hope you guys understand and thank you in advance!
