So first of all, once the game comes out and i make my character name him and all that will i be required to join a company before i can play any multiplayer at all. If so will i only be able to play with people in my company or will i be able to play with random people. If say i joined a line infantry company would i never be allowed to play as sharpshooter, cavalry, or artillery.
Also if i join a Union company will i ever be able to play as a confederate. This im curious about in particular because some of the kickstarter rewards obviously would only be available to one faction.
If these questions have already been answered somewhere could you link me the thread? Thanks.
