Remember the Old clan system on Halo 2? You could send clan requests and they could join or decline, you had ranks, and all that shenanigans?
Then there was a playlist to challenge other clans?
I already made a thread about things they should remake.. But seriously, I want them to bring this back. It was cool.
Who else thinks they should bring it back, or why not bring it back?

That would be pretty cool. Clans were one of the best things about Halo 2, especially clan battles.

That's 9 e's.

I 100% support this. I'm not entirely sure why Bungie took it out.

GT: FatalxXxFrenzy -Check out my fileshare!! Map titled "Lagoon"

I think they took it out because microsoft (or whoever makes the decisions about dashboard stuff) had mentioned maybe making a clan tab. Bungie didnt add the clan thing into halo 3 because of this. They however... did not make a clan tab in the dashboard. So therefore we dont have clans in halo 3, well at least an option ingame.

I DO hope there is one in reach.

Multiplayer
Clan settings
Settings.. or in settings put the clan settings..

I fully agree with having clans. Clans could be so much more than "just another friends list" with halo reach. Eg clan pages on Bnet so you can view and compare your clans stats and even challenge other clans, maybe an overall clan rank which is earned through playing as your clan in a special playlist (with whole new rank titles etc), clan leaders and other positions within the clan (like halo 2 had), they could even add some sort of chat room function so anyone looking for a game can just enter their clans chat room and see who wants to play.

clans are good as you can seperate your xbox live friends with you halo friends. Your also able to meet new people much easier rather than through customs or matchmaking.

I think clans would add a whole new dimension to matchmaking and increase the competitiveness but these are just some ideas anyway... not sure if they would work well or not but thats what the betas for so who knows...

Sucks having to team with with random friends and some of them not into a much competition as you are. HArd for me to play H3 competitively, people whom i meet with regularly just don't give a damn.

And Im Sure Having an Accesable Clan System Making It Easy To Make A Clan And Keep Tabs On Them , Will Keep People More Intrested In Halo Multiplayer A Lot Longer Than Usual : ]

Yeah, at least you had something to do with friends when you played clan matches, instead of sometimes not even playing with your friends.

ODST for life

I miss the old clan matches from Halo 2, they provided some of the best fun I had playing that game.

Sadly Microsoft wont ever allow them to do it again. Having a clan in theory would be like having another friends list and Microsoft isn't cool with that. That is why it was never in Halo 3 and that's why it will never be in any other games released. *sad face*

Well, I think they should do the same as what other games have done to get around this problem which is to use clan tags like in the recent COD games and Resistance 2.

If they put this is then I will be more than happy.
