Yes, the game has a fog of war that is reminiscent of classical RTS games and is influenced by terrain (hills, dunes, etc). It has 3 levels of concealment, listed below:
- Unexplored (black, nothing can be seen in it)
- Explored (partially transparent, can see discovered buildings but not units)
- Visible (transparent, can see units, buildings and so on)

Important to note is that the fog of war is not present in the FPS perspective, where everything is as one would expect of a standard FPS. The crossover is in how units are detected, where both perspectives share common data. A target (unit/building) is detected when either within view distance (the distance at which fog of war is revealed) or by line of sight (distance depends on object size, movement etc). The exception to this rule is units that are considered 'concealed', explained in the next question.

Disregarding concealment, mentioned in a previous question, a building is detected when it is within line of sight or within view distance where fog of war is revealed. Units are also detected in the same way but their detection depends on how fast they are moving, how fast the observer is moving, which direction the observer is looking and so on.
 

For greater protection from cheaters, consider finding servers that use the integrated BattlEye anti-cheat engine. Server administrators have control over various anti-cheat measures. Use the server browser filter to find these servers.

This may be caused by several things. You may be running a different game version (e.g. servers on the experimental development branch), or servers may require the use of certain (user-generated) add-ons and mods. Finally, there may be connection problems between you and the server due to firewalls or other obstacles along the way.

Try to configure your in-game video options to match your hardware setup (use auto-detect as a basis). It is also recommended to install the latest graphics hardware drivers for your graphics card(s). Should you not be using SSD storage devices, consider defragmenting your drive(s). Finally, use the Steam client to verify the game data integrity automatically.
