I just wanted to share my thoughts about clan ranks and why its good. It's kind of like having all your players a dedicated number, depending on the amount of players each clan has; for example, in my clan I assigned certain ranks to players based on their skill or experience, even effort. I think its good because you know where each players skill is kind of located, and can be used in a clan battle, if he is a lower rank, higher ranked players can help the lower and so on forth.
I also think its good because it keeps rivalry between players, ( a good one ) it also depends on the amount of players each clan has. When I say: "such and such day will be a clan battle" if that happens I will have around 10-12 guys wanting to play, in my opinion it would be easier to say: rank 1-9 can join, or something like that. The way to 'bust' up your rank could be a FFA between the members, that way lower ranks can show their ass kicking than, its fair to me that way.
Its something for the leader to think about, its fun, and you get to play against your own team in a challenging way, you learn, and then fight other clans, I think it will be really good for crysis 3.
