Subject: Clan USMC and clan colors

Greatest of all time

Topic one: Is this clan [USMC] any good? A guy tried to recruit me and i checked his stats and they sucked. So i was wondering if anyone has ever heard of this clan. He also claimed they were sponsored by bungie and ebgames (i thought it was total BS).

Topic two: He wouldn't let me join because i didn't want to change my color. I personally believe that clan colors are stupid. Let us be what we want, its a 2 and a half year old game! Does it really matter? You don't see friends walking around wearing the same clothing do you? Who here thinks clan colors are pointless?

Im sure they suck if they claim to be sponsored. Bungie dosent sponsor ANYONE. Any clan that claims to be sponsored is talking out of their asses, only teams get sponsored. Some teams are affiliated with clans though so sometime the whole clan thinks they are sponsored because the team is.

XGC isn't all that great though. The only reason they are sponsored is because they are so big (same with KSI).

Most of the high ranking people are d1ckheads and cheaters, trust me i've been in both clans

No, Code of War isnt sponsored...nor do I want it to be. XGC is not sponsored, only the teams that you send to MLG are.

Kids make such a big deal out of being sponsored these days. Just because youre sponsored dosent mean youre good. All it means is that youre too cheap to pay your own way to MLG and you conned someone else into it. Companies will sponsor just about any team if you can sell them on the idea but if you dont deliver and repesent their name well then theyre gonna drop you, but hell if you dad gives you 5 bucks for a hamburget at the tourament then he sponsored you. Everyone needs to quit making such a big deal about sponsorships.

lol yeah clan colors are pretty pointless and someone who claims to be sponsored is usually a total fraud, ESPEIALLY if they claim to be sponsored by bungie and EB games. what a loser.

I dont think ive ever lost to XGC, KSI, MOB or any of these other fad clans.

  • 07.02.2007 11:15 AM PDT

Greatest of all time

I personally think clans fail also because the best players sometimes aren't even too high in ranking. I believe that the best players should be given high ranks. But no, its usually only "close friends" or people who have been in a long time. If i joined the clan and after two days i've proven that i am better than someone who has a higher rank then me and has been in the clan for a few months shouldn't i be given a higher rank then him?

almost every clan i joined i was either better than the guy who recruited me or one of the high ranking people.

btw, by ranks i mean ranks in the clan, not the pointless number next to my name

KSI are total BS for the reason that they recruit anyone been in it and was told we need to recruit 100 by 24hrs regardless of skill or rank (well not the regardless of skill rank thing but they didnt care).

XGC have many subnets but seemed like a good clan well orginised, had meeting and training sessions. i was checked out by a higher ranked person after being nominated by someone on my friends list my only issue with them i like my armour colour and don't want it to change then also them being in the US and me in the UK i wasnt gonna be at any of there meetings or training. Cant speak for other subnets of XGC.

on my time on live ive only been recruited by XGC twice and ksi countless times. Also there are probably loads of fake KSI clans that some random person made up just to be KSI

Finally the clan u mentioned i aint ever heard of

  • 07.02.2007 11:46 AM PDT

Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your going to get... but you can bet it will be chocolate.

The idea of clan colors is only good if the clan is huge. It kind of intresting to go into a game and on the other team you know they are from your rival clan from their colors. The rank in the clan i like but like one of you already said... the best players dont get the best ranks, just the best freidns. When i play a team game i like to know who everyone is by their symbol. But if everyone has pretty much the same symbol you cant exactly tell who is who.

Send A Friend Request to Schloxictonkey if you need a good teammate and you are good

ive been through xgc a few times, ive never joined ksi, and last week i joined DOG. not a fan. lots of people on though. but they suck. and im orange. if promoted, it would be purple with a star. still its better than being in no clan or one with 5 people. I was even in code of war for a few days, i regret leaving it seemed like a good place to be. I wrote this 15 minutes ago.... damn discovery channel

i'd rather not be playing halo then have to have matching clan colors

Its pretty obvious now that USMC is a sad joke seeing as though they claim to be sponsored by bungie and yet not a lot of people on the forums know about them
