Hey there peeps just wanted everyone to share there thoughts with me. Whats the good things and bad about playing for a clan and not playing in clan.

For me not playing for a clan gives me much more time to do wat i want.
Play when i want dont need to worry about things like shit this weekend i got game v blah an i cant go out Sad
Or have to worry about about how i play.
I can play bad if i want. For me im playing whenever i want an just enjoyin the game right now or when i can at least Happy.

But downside to be clanless for me is.
missing friends havin fun togther being part of somthing. knowing when im playing im doing good for the clan helping them to become better etc

But to be honest i dunno if i want to join a clan again. I know im an ok player an lots a clans would like me with them. But what is it you should go for?
Playing with top clan or playing with friends?
Coz this is a game an were here to have fun?

in my opinion its much better to have a clan Big grin

1) in a clan you have very much fun (cw/fw)
2) in a clan you learn a lot from other members
3) in a clan you meat nice people Big grin

IMO there are no disadvantages.

there are disadvantages on one side.
if u are the leader of the clan, u are the man who needs to be at all major events of your clan, cw fw's etc.
while ur members warmup before a cw, u need to make the organisation.
personally, having no clan is freedom, being in a strict clan is just for people who really want to be in a clan and being in a less strict clan is freedom combinated with the advantages of clan gaming.

Being in the clan has one big advantage for me, no game on the public servers has so much tense as in the cw. Of course there are "easy" cw's where you play for fun, without worrying about the score, but mostly you have to be 100 percent concentrated, and this great for me. Friends, mates, blabla, for me only the tension on cws counts.

well im not the leader, mow is, but i like doing most of the work as long as the members listen to me Tongue but thats just cause im a manipulative sadistic bitch Big grin

Well anyway, i sacrifice my time because of the ppl, cause a clan = ppl, in my case, the ones i love more then words can say, even more then some of my friends in real life. And i dont care that we are not the best, i just care that we have fun when we play, and we really do. thats why i love 2!Sweet <3

Remember Zack, whatever you do, you DONT exist because of yourself, you exist because of others.

the first creature that existed - it was something deep down in the ocean - DID exist because of itself, it ate its own brain xD

(im not kidding)

advantages:
trainings, cw's, fw's, friends, fun, you get to know more ppl, you improve

disadvantages:
less freedom, maybe a rivalry between your and another clan

im for having clan (maybe cos i almost all time while playing games (cs, q3, bots2 and other..) have clan and enjoying in it Winking), with clan is more fun, you meet friends having fun and training with them, but clan sometimes is like duty, cos you should be on one or other cw, prefer for event and cant do other things (sometimes is very tiring). Now im happy that im clanless and trying to enjoy this status as much as posible Happy but i think it will not be for long Big grin Cool

If I have no clan I wouldn't probably be in e+ anymore, so if you ask me i'm for having clan, but clan where you have friends. It is sensless to join some clan to help them if you don't even know the ppl in that clan, i'd rather join some top clan [if i have some friends there] then joining some weak clan to help them [with no friends in it].
Someone already said about public playing, it is becoming bored.. way too much nubies there, so it is twice better to play clan vs clan or something like that.. you ain't gonna get adrenaline while playing in public i'm sure, but trying playing against some skilled clan and then this game will be twice more funnier Winking

If it weren't for DRT i would have left e+ ages ago.

Only reason why i'm here is having fun with my second family.

So clan > public.

like my clanmates can say im "very horny". i want to play every day but on public i can stand only 2-3 maps. Why?

because playing with your clanmates in some organized way makes much more fun than playing in public. U are forced to show your best side... its like in sport competitions - on trainings (fw's) u are training hard but also have perfect time with your virtual friends, on cw's u can show what have u been learning every day since the beginning of your pr0 way Big grin.

My point is: mixing fun and hard game is the best.

I think the best alternative to being in a clan is to be part of a team - Funteam, national team, league game team, whatever. There towards the last three or four months I was active last time, I played with xXx almost exclusively in organized team games, and when playing duel gametypes I used E+ Pickup and private organized games through MSN more often than any other method. Private games, whether it's with 12 people on teams or three or four people in rotating duel / tournament style gaming is the best, really, because you don't have to deal with people joining at random, people you don't know, people who just stumble onto the server playing the game for the first time, et cetera. Which is all a big headache. Winking
