Is there a time table for other Clans such as Clan Cloud Cobra to join?

Do we need more meaningless pictures next to peoples names on the forums?

I wouldn't mind seeing that happen, but until factions become more than just eye-candy for the forums, I would hold off on that.

I wish factions meant something more. I am proud of my affiliation with Clan Nova Cat but it needs to be allowed to be so much more.

You're not wrong though. I really want to get rid of my Wolf Icon in favor of a Goliath Scorpion Logo.

Steel Wolfs? lol

I would be happy with Clan Wolf in Exiles since they are in the Civil War timeline and stuff, also I don't see any problems with other clans or spheroid factions popping up in the game.

[SCHLIMMER BESTIMMER XXX]

they can add CLAN "insert animal name here".
even WU TANG CLAN....
at this point it dosent really matter anymore

they shouldn't have any clans that were not apart of the invasion. People don't even play faction play anymore so their is no point in adding more

Clan Wolf In-Exile is the "true" Clan Wolf and uses the same "logo". My unit is Clan Wolf In-Exile 4th Wolf Guard: https://mwomercs.com...__fromsearch__1

People don't play FP anymore, unless there is a FP event, because PGI made factions pointless, since you can now switch to the winning side without any penalty.

The pictures are not meaningless to players who care about the IP, that if it did not exist, this game would not exist.

If I want lore i'll read a book. Those symbols are supposed to identify faction affiliation for CW. They no longer mean anything as there arent really factions anymore. So they are no longer necessary and should go.

Some want to keep at least some semblance of lore in this game, having a picture beside your name does not affect gameplay at all, so why would you want them removed?

[Spare Parts Bin]

I care about FP. I wish it was What it was years ago but it is not.

I do not love it any less. QP and FP are not perfect but they are a bright spot in my world. Playing against others even when I lose is better than a day at the office without a few games.

Y'all do what you want to I want more Clans and Factions to create a draw so others can see what I see.

Eh, I prefer my lore in decals and Faction/Totem Mechs. I agree with you though, factions should have been so much more than eye-candy or as a way to look cool on the forums. However, I see the opposite though. Since we know how factions are now, people could urge for new factions if they wanted to.

Or just treat it more like a sandbox game and just make all of the icons available so we can make our own lore-based units (if we haven't already). Also there are already many faction-specific Mechs and variants in the game, at least two for each faction.

Also, Will, add "Give the Clans their HAGS" to your sig also.

I will like to be able to field drop decks based on the favoured Omnimechs/Mechs of each Clan but that is the future. At the moment I am just putting together two Invasion Drop Decks with 100% Hero Omnimechs/Mechs.
