Was thinking about this today, pretty unique time way back in my gaming past. Belonged to a clan that would play things like War Rock (old F2P game), Battlefield 2, early CoD games, etc.
It was really the only time I belonged to a gaming clan, and I remember (maybe through the lens of nostalgia?) having a great time with it. Someone was always on voice chat, I think we used TeamSpeak then switched to Vent, then finally Mumble?
I remember it being fairly small group, so everyone knew each other. There was also a really wide range of ages as well, so it was almost more like a strange family than a group of friends.
Just funny to think back, how frequently we all talked to each other, without ever having actually met in-person. Then it just kind of faded away slowly, I couldn’t even tell you why / when I stopped.
Anyone else have similar experience / memories? Do you still belong to any gaming clans today (new or old)?
I played unofficially with the same group of guys on CoD MW and the sequel to the point where we just dominated every match in hard core. My HC win streak was over 150 games when one of the guys I played with jumped to the other team just to stop my streak and bust my balls. We would hold a side, have one guy per lane with two floaters and just played so often together that we always knew what to do on each map to support each other and get the win. Never had a clan name or anything but we were a gang for sure. Good memories :)
