I signed up, got the confirmation email, then it wouldn't let me go in. Read the reviews and I think I saved mysel a big mistake. ALWAYS read the reviews first.
I started playing Feral Clans about 4 years ago. I was on hours and hours a day and spent money regularly. That was when it was owned by someone else and went by another name. The owner respected the players and took no $#*! from anyone, but he did listen to concerns and he made it fun.
Now, the only thing that happens is banning or refusal of service. The players complaints about cheating and unfairness are met with bans. If you are not friends with the owners, then you could be banned for anything at all. They read your mail, they read what you write off game if they know your real name. They take everything that happens very personally and when they don't like it... kiss your butt goodbye. People are ban without proof or only claimed proof that no one gets to see or get a chance to argue.
They claim free and you cannot play free. Not if you want the game to be enjoyable. You can't train enough to be worth a clan and without a clan the game is severely limited. Play at your own risk, but you're wasting your money and will probably end up band before the month is out.
The game is ok. I don't play the game anymore now becuase frankly i got bored after a couple years. This happens to me a lot though so it's not the game that's the problem. I just like to switch games frequently. However i have nothing to say against the game. I never used any RL money to become a strong player, it's true i never became one of the strongest 'cause i never paid but aren't all games like that? You pay and you get a strong player, you don't pay and you're left in the dust.
Also one time while i was still playing i got caught cheating. I was stealing bvs from the system and you know what the Admin told me? "Send the bvs back to me or you will be banned" I did what she said and i stopped cheating and i was never banned. So i REALLY have nothing to complain about and before you say anything. No i'm not the Admin's favorite, in fact before i started cheating i never even spoken to her before and it's not like i pay RL money to play the game so she really didn't have to be lenient with me.
So i honestly have no idea why everyone's complaining the Admin does give chances. It just depends on how bad the infraction is. Also to the person complaining about the rules. It's common sense not to allow people make comments about someone's gender or race. It's amazing that you can sayt that with a straight face. Why do you feel that you need to be a bully to have fun in game? I think you're the problem not the Admin.
ADMIN DONT allow you to put your view across. IF they cant win, THEY BAN YOU. Or REVOKE your account. The LIST of rules are ridiculous. Its a war game. Rated 18 not farmville. ALL THEY WANT IS YOUR MONEY... DONT GIVE IT TO THEM!
The Umm person Julie j is a player known as Queen, she loves the Game cause she is the Number 1 player and spends, a ton of money to get there. As soon as you disagree with her she will label you as a racist. But that's not half your problem if you play this game. It is rule heavy and dont think your gona get away with call anyone names or trash talking cause you wont. Here are some examples of their rules.
FC is a role-playing, social online game. We are not responsible for things said or done outside of the game.
We will not tolerate comments in the game based on another players sex, sexual orientation, race, creed, religion and anything else the law protects.
This includes our FB page, the forum and anything else under the name Feral Clans, LLC.
If you are intolerant of others who may be different, have different values, opinions, etc, then FC may not be the right place for you, or any other form of social media that allows you to interact with others.
We will also not tolerate players calling each other names based on their possible RL positions. Ie, calling a player homophobic, racist, bigot etc.
Ok now also add to this as other players have said. Yu\ou want to play its gona cost you big time
I'm sorry Gamer F but Farmville and bejeweled are way to rough, I'm looking for a pansy a** game and if you people are too, do I have one for you... go check this game out because I know that when I sign up for a "free" game only to find out that if I don't pump a crap load of money into it, I am automatically at a disadvantage... I like that sh*t... I also love it when I make friends, talk about things... you know, be social. Only to have them turn around later and f*kk me royal... that's what I look for in a good friend... oh and if you also want a game where admin are fair and treat everyone equally, then leave now because FC offers the best in money hungry owners and weak, ball-less admin... but then again you really don't need them when the top player runs the game...
This game has everything a backstabbing drama queen suck a** could ever want... IF that's you, come on in and join the rest of the idiots that make the game absolutely ridiculous and not worth the change I find in my pocket...
I agree with Maya B. Completely. Like Maya, i was also caught cheating by stealing bvs and all the Admin told me was to stop cheating and to send the bvs i stole back to her otherwise i would be banned. I listened and never cheated ever again and i was never banned not even for a little while. I also wasn't Nibby's favourite either. I'd never spoken to her and i wasn't a donor either since i never spend rl money on online games.
Although it is true that you won't become one of the top players in the game if you don't start paying a ridiculous amount of rl money but every game i have ever played was like that even the so called 'free' ones. In the end, games are created to make a profit not to entertain people.
However despite the fact that i was never able to become one of the top players i was still able to become a Lvl 65 something player with all my stats somewhere around 1k if i remember right so i still manage to create a pretty decent player without paying so much as a single real dollar on the game.
Really people only get banned from the game because even after the Admin warns them like she did me they keep repeating the same mistakes over and over. And as for comments about gender, race, sexual orientation, etc, etc. Well of course there are rules against that. This is the 21st century, children, and comments like that are called discrimination nowadays. And frankly i agree with the Admin if you lot were banned because of your smart mouths. You can easily have fun in a game without resorting to bullying and putting other people down. So grow up!
I played and payed good money for 5 years. The censorship of the Administration is not encouraging to say the least. The game has become extremley censored and heavily one-sided. With that being said if you decide to play FC, read the reviews and take heed. One day if you fall on the side I and many long term player friends did you will have no opinion and you will be wrong and social banned, then banned for 20 + years, lastly a permanent band.
I have been a gamer for sometime and I have never been to a game that is free but you pay for the type of player you want to be and sink real hard earned money and get treated like a child in a time-out.
I give the game a max 5 thumbs down.
For a text based game, there's a lot of fun to be had at feral clans. It's not like the the other powder puff games floating around it's got a bite to it. I play mostly PC games but, I spend a few hours a day on the site and there's always crazy stuff going on. Never seen it rain fish until FC! Lol Anyways, if you're used to farmville and bejewled, you may not appreciate feral clans. May be too rough for you. Those who have played Vampire Wars/Bloodlines will probably find some of your old clan mates there. Made some good friends and some rivals. That's how it goes in war games. Admins seem cool. They seem to be pretty tough on the cheaters which is one of the reasons I've stuck around. Cheaters ruined VW. When I'm not at work or raiding in a PC game, I'm usually hanging out in FC.
When the former owner was in game, he cared about the players not the money. Now that he has passed away. The new owners care about the money not the players. There has been several server changes, and they seem to get worse with each change. The admins get way too involved in the game themselves and have their own accounts. They can be owned as pets and I have seen them orb players, yet they tell you they don't play the game.
Super drama heavy, choppy and bad graphics. There seems to be a big worry about the top player in the game and the admins cater to her and her clan. Why this is I don't know.
This is a wonderful game, and when you follow the rules you don't ever have any issues with the admins.The owners have put in many hours and many dollars to keep this game. I want them to know that I appreciate them keeping the game. Awesome
I read the other reviews, seriously, someone that didnt get their way, or got banned is whinning like a two year old, this is a wonderful game, and when you follow the rules you don't ever have any issues with the admins.The owners have put in many hours and many dollars to keep this game. I want them to know that I appreciate them keeping the game, and I love the avatars, nice work. Thanks again!
FC is cool as hell. It's kill or be killed... stand up or shut up. Been playing it for 3 or 4 years & always having a good time. I like how they allow things that other games are too up tight about, keeps things interesting. I'm still trying to win the game Lotto though! Haha There are some who have nothing better to do than whine & moan about not getting their way but, it is a tiny group of babies who most of us just ignore. Tons of stuff in the game to do & really cool friends who play too. I've made great friends there & we meet up when we can. I looked at some of the reviews *& that's what made me come here. The admins are so chill, I don't even know what some of these people are talking about. They only time I've ever seen them jump in is when there are cheaters or were asked to. I'd bet a BV pack 6 the ones crying on here are the ones that got banned. How you gonna blame them cause you were caught cheating? If you don't like them or the game, maybe you should just log out (if you even HAVE an account) & let the rest of us have a great time. Leave the site to us grown folks who have some sense about us. Ignore the haters & come do a clan raid with us! Luv my FC family! PEACE!
At first, maybe 3 years ago this game was fun and had loads of potential. That's when the game was owned by it's original owner Repo. Then a tragedy happened and the game got taken over by Nibby. The game held onto a very small bit of itself but was on a huge down slide as Nibby but mostly the current owners had/have NO interest in the players or the game itself but ONLY the rl cash donations.
If you're a old or former player and not ridiculously blind to the facts or ignorant then you know the current owners only try to buddy buddy up to players in the games chat when donations are down. They will also be forgiving to big donors UNLESS said donor puts them into a position where even the most ignorant of kissing assing players will swallow a owners dingle berry and question the situation.
The events there went from bring worth the time and effort to being so ridiculously greedy and penny pinching on the side of the owners. I can't see why this game is still breathing. The make you spend a ton in supplies to get either a handful if that of war supplies or a display item that doesn't do anything in game wise.
Every update to that sorry excuse for a game has been to EVEN further the spending of donations AND minimize the overall use of supplies to get players to spend even more.
Worst part is that they care nothing for the players, if the game messes up and per say like it did to me once. Where the daily spins froze and as I clicked around on a froze screen it ate up my resources on spins I did not want. After when I sent in a help ticket explaining the situation in full. They told me "tough $#*!". And only gave me back maybe 5 percent of my resources because the logs showed that the problem happened on the same milli second one time or so they claim.
Also, with 95% of the game being donor only to play, there "Free to play" advertising is skating the line to an extreme. You can't see simple war pages, chat in the game chat, send most items, use the auction. Plus other features I can't at the time think of as I no longer play.
But stay away from this hopefully soon to be dead game unless you're into heavily overpaying, kissing $#*!, corruption and blatant ignorance.
But now I bid you a good day.
Do not buy the BS that this is a free game. I started playing in June 2010. At one point I believe I was ranked number 23 in the game. That is the best I ever reached. According to paypal I spent $6,207.00 to achieve this rank. Yeah, I know it is crazy but I want you to understand it isn't even close to free if you hope to have any status in the game.
My thanks for spending so much money in this game? I was denied service because I posted a comment I called the "FC death watch" as a joke on a non-game, closed Facebook site. At least I assume that is what I did wrong because admin never even bothered to tell me why I was denied service. $6,200.00 I paid them. Pure profit to them and I wasn't even worthy of receiving an email telling me why I was no longer allowed to play.
BTW, if you're curious my last "death watch" showed 58 online players at 8pm MST on a Tuesday night. Most hadn't been active in over 15-minutes.
Bottom line if you want to spend a fortune to hang out with about 60 people FC is the place to be. If you'd rather play a game with a reasonable economy, actual active players online at any given time and owners that value your business I suggest you keep looking.
The drama in this game is the worst I have ever seen in my entire life. There are bullies everywhere and when you complain about it, you get made fun of by the other players and the admins. All they bother to do is say "go find another game" which is fine. I did and I don't miss this worthless game. And when I say bullies I don't mean people who hit you because thats part of the game. I mean people who call you racist and sexist slurs, tell people bad things about you that aren't even true because they don't even know you, people who obsessively hit you for days and days on end. Lots of bullying just like lame high school bullies. And these are all "adults" according to the games rules. If you hit someone they get mad and have dozens of people attack you. And you HAVE to hit people to train. Its a really bogus hypocrisy of a game. Waste of my time and my money. Ive seen people get banned for cheating, but Ive seen even more people get banned for standing up to bullies and the admin who is friends with most of the bullies. Those ones are allowed to do anything they want, even in direct violation of "rules" they can do and say anything they want. She just lets them and craps on anyone who gets upset. If you don't pay money for the blood and supplies then she has no time for you.
DONT BOTHER. They say its a free game. But thats crap. You cant do a damn thing without buying a DONOR pack. IF you dont buy, your considered a dead account... There is ONE rule for the RANK ONE player & her pack. And another for the rest. IF you dont bow and scrap, your called a racist and bullied, SHE will spread untrue lies about you, just to get anyone that will listen to her, sympathy! Claiming we are ONLY attacking back. Cos of her skin colour, which isnt true. ADMIN called us KEY BOARD commanders, cos we complained. Showed them MANY TIMES she was cheating using BOTS and programs to play. SHE had family members play her account so she was online 22 hours straight. And still nothing was done. And we were banned or silenced... SHE WILL hound you outside the game. Falsely accuse you of stuff. YET this is not allowed and STILL nothing was done. ADMIN DONT allow you to put your view across. IF they cant win, THEY BAN YOU. Or REVOKE your account. The LIST of rules are ridiculous. Its a war game. Rated 18 not farmville. ALL THEY WANT IS YOUR MONEY... DONT GIVE IT TO THEM!
Do yourself a favor and just stay away.
The game is dying and isn't worth your time or money. And it requires a lot of both.
I thought that it is a fun website. I have been playing for over a month and everyone is friendly. It is well made and fun to play.
This web site is terrible. First let me just say the lady who runs Feral Clans (formerly known as Forsaken Clans) is a bully and a hypocrite. She has "rules" that she enforces on everyone EXCEPT for her friends. And everyone in the game sees it, they just don't have the guts to call her on it because everyone who has, all got banned for doing it. It started out as a "war" game involving Vampires and Werewolves, and turned into a place where she makes money and lets her friends bully the other members. The players who spend the most money are ranked higher and they almost always get away with breaking the rules. She gets away with it because she didn't create any of it, and by the time she took it over there were people who had put in hundreds and hundreds of dollars.
Now about the game itself, it's crap. It's a text based "role playing" game with standard basic NON ANIMATED pictures. There are no animations, no customizing of anything, and no story. All you do is attack other players to get experience to level up, and train. It's all point-and-click, and as I said NOTHING is animated. No flash, no java, nothing. The only story you can get out of it is what you create, supposing you can even find another player who's willing to participate in your story. And the fact that everything derives from your interaction with fellow players, usually ends up in someone getting mad and then there's a giant fight. This game has more cyber-bullying, more drama, and more adults who act like children than anywhere else on the internet. It's a really lame game, it's a really sad and hostile environment, and it's run by someone who doesn't care about ANYTHING except money, and her friends... unless you're one of the players who buys thingsto fill her pockets, THEN she'll listen to you, if only just to shut you up.
