Infinite should have clans which would help a LOT in many ways. I play mostly solo or with 1-2 friends most of the time. There’s a lot of people out there looking for groups and others to play with. Outside of bringing people together to play in larger groups, it would help on replayability as well with clan progression. All of this should be implemented inside the game and not require external apps and services to arrange groups/games/schedules.
Things that should probably be included are:
- Ranks (with permissions/responsibilities/strings-practice squad etc)
- Recruitment Options (open/closed, minimum rank or bp progression)
- Calendar/Schedule (for practice/custom games/tourneys/etc.)
- Blog (so members can post news/rules/tips/events/etc.]
- 50+ Member Cap (so always find members online and play large custom game matches)
- Progression (Daily/Weekly/Monthly Challenges like you’re own personal challenges, but on a clan scale. These could award experience and unlocks and an internal ranking structure of who is contributing and how much.]
- Clan Logo [as a nameplate/armor icon, maybe enough options to customize it from a variety of shapes and designs on a multi layered system like your own personal spartan icon like back in the old halo days]
- Monetization (new features needs to be funded so why not allow clan members to buy a “clan” pack that gives all members 2X swaps + 2X double xp]
- Hangout Room [The last thing to add for a clan but is a bit of a stretch would be to have a hangout room. Kind of like when people are in your fireteam in the lobby. Mostly used for open chat among all members where people currently online can talk about whatever, arrange games, talk with new members, etc.]
