If we do that we would be dominating the non testers when the game comes out in terms of experience. But yeah we should but it would be hard to know if someone was a tester or not unless if there's some indicator.

I like it. If most testers committed we'd be a force before the game even starts. It all sounds pretty cut-throat, but that's what EVE is all about, isn't it? It's a very interesting idea.

FPS players who are objective orientated and more concious of the goal than the killing will most likely mobilise one hell of a fighting force.

Owning a MIC and setting a squad commander/working as a unit will put us much further ahead, the power of teamwork never fails, even on "Kill Consuming" games such as Call of Duty those who work as a team tend to dominate

console FPS had lots of successful clans and groups. the problem is almost no games has any tools to support clans any more, no I am not talking private matches.

On the original xbox Battlefield 2 modern combat had a great clan system, you sent invites like friend invites, to get into a clan match you would put a map and hit start, when another clan accepted the game was on, you could then send a message to all your other clan members to get in the match to win

these days nothing is in the game. the only things you can really do are useless clan tags.
