Depends: sort of had mixed of what I like as far as Mech Chasis and weapons layout. Guess we'll cross that bridge when we get there!

ill join clan sea fox/dimond shark when they show up becuse i like the fact that they are more flexible with the cast system than other clans, becuase the're some of the greatest scientists and merchants in the clans, and the're responsible for the development of one of my favorite light mech, the solitare

Said it once, Said it twice, will say it a thousand more times. I don't care how much fire power you can put on to a hundred tonne mech. If you come to my planet claiming to be in the Name of the Star League, or that coward Alexander Kerensky, you're going to leave in scrap. Nothing good came from the Star League when they invaded my forefathers in the Outworld. And your kin will bring nothing good to me.

Once more i say nay to the clans, Bring your guns for i will bring mine to stop you.

1) Fight for the FRR against Draconis Combine

2) When Clans invade, fight for the FRR against the Clans

3) Collect Clantech weapons and mechs

4) When FRR is mostly overrun, use captured tech to create merc unit called 'Clan Kevlar Sloth'

5) Attack Clans using advanced tech and berserker rage to get revenge

6) Clans retreat in abject humiliation from the IS after being beaten by such a stupid sounding unit

7) Return to fighting Draconis Combine

This is my masterplan. What could possibly go wrong?

I think I'll follow this plan, except my group will be called the Clan Rampant Lemming.

[The Goof]

No.

I'm pretty much hoping that isn't even an option. If we get limited salvage from beating the clans in battle, then I'd be okay with that, but there is no way that you can force a player to "fight like a clanner" and we will just end up with IS tactics in clan 'mechs.

a gross over estimation of how the majority of us will function as a Clan Faction Player. A lot of us are absolutely die hard Clan <insert totem animal name here> fans and will function as best as we can given what ever mechanics are in the game. While, there will be a portion of players who have 0 respect for the lore and history that will be as dishonorable as they can, this does not reflect the majority.

[Khanahar]

Gotta say, I'm torn. See, I like the idea of a faction fighting (at least in the eyes of its more honorable members) for a better world. That kinda leaves Davion and Crusader clans, with JF being the best of the bunch. Obviously, there are problems with both, and cynical/bloodthirsty members of each group get in the way. And we do know that no-body's about to win and remake the Star League any time. I'll probably stick with Davion though. The Clans kinda fell from grace, whereas FedSuns has been wallowing in the mire for a while and still (sorta) have their heads in the game.

[Kenyon]

Nope

[Accuso]

as a merc... whoever pays best gehts my quadro ppc in action :-D

[shadowhawk102]

i am thinking it will be done in a way where for a short time the clans will be better, then there will be a balancing thing and the tech will be there for all, other wise every one will be running clan mechs and the is will sorta cease.

[ElcomeSoft]

I seem to prefer IS Omnimechs over Clan Omnimechs.

To this end, I may be using Clan Omnimechs until something like my friend, the Templar or Sunder, come along... though some of the post-invasion, pre-omni IS designs are quite nice too

[Kier Ordo]

It depends on how much I have invested in the game when that happens. If I never have a chance to play anyway, it won't matter and I will probably change.
However, if I play as much as I hope to, I will absolutely stay IS.

[Todd Lee]

All the odd RPing aside, yes, I will definitely be switching. I like the look of the clan mechs more so than the inner sphere mechs. I always did enjoy the Summoner/Hellbringer/Mad Dog/Timberwolf/Warhawk more than anything else.

[NOVADOG]

No.I hate clanners :l

[Cordel Ordo]

Depends for me, I'm planning to stay IS but if a clan player and I are RPing and he claims me as a bondsman I will switch. Only way I'll be going clan. Otherwise, Inner Sphere Forever!!!!!!!!!

[SaintGordon]

I dont like the clans.
i fight them, i kill them!

[Ramius Hazen]

Depends: on how it's implemented in MWO. If it were an option now, I'd be rejoining all my sibkin in Clan Jade Falcon from the get go. But it's also possible that, by the time they're playable, I'll be too loyal to my lancemates in House Davion to leave. But then we're all playing wait and see at this point.

[Max Payn]

I will change.
As soon as Clan Ghost Bear joins the IS. If that happens just like it did in the (history)books ;-).

[Thorgar Wulfson]

if i joined the clans then how could i crush their skulls under my booted feet?
