CJ can you give some preview as to how clans will be integrated? SE clans have longer application processes/requirements than games like Clash of Clans.
Well we actually have most of the clans stuff done however it's been a while and we just need to do some final polish stuff which always takes time.
We plan to make it so that anyone can start a clan by purchasing a Clan stone. The one who purchases the clan can then assign leaders chat mods ect. Then Leaders can invite and accept new recruits into the guild which will automatically be new recruits until such time as a leader gives them full status by whatever means each individual clan requirements are outside the game.
Each Clan will be able to opt in or out of Clan Wars (or whatever we call it). This will be a leaderboard that tracks the rating of each clan. The ratings will be accumulated by a member of a clan battling a member of another clan. The result of that battle will result in a Clan rating separate from and in addition to the regular player vs player rating. So When battling a player from another clan that has opted into Clan Wars you will have even more at stake as far as ratings are concerned.
I would like the Clans to have the ability to choose a Clan statue or flag or something which would become the statue used for each member of that clan for all games.
These are the basics and we are trying to keep it as simple as possible. Like I said most of this is in place right now but we have to do a lot of testing to make sure things don't break the game.
Should be fun !
