@evreyone I Was Thinking Very Briefly About SSM Implementing A System Of Rank Insignias Within Clans, To Signify Who Is The Leader Of The Clan As Well As Who Is The Second In Command And So On .
This Would Give The Clan System Added Depth It Needs To Keep Clan vs. Clan Battles More Interesting And Competetive, It Would Also Give Each Clan A Idea Of Who To "Look For" During The Match Ex: A Higher Rank Member From One Clan Looking For The Other High Ranking Member In The Other Clan .Lol
A Example Would Be To Use Military Ranks Since This Is The Closest To The God of War Theme .
For Example A 4V4 Clan Battle Scenario With Rank Insignias;
Hypothetically Speaking Of Course .Lol
Clan Erebus: vs. Team EKIA
Highest Rank: Colonel: metlgearsolid200 Colonel: d1v4d
Second Highest: Captain: Goldhawk1 Captain: DaJizzle
Third Highest: Lieutenant: Lord-Kratos23 Lieutenant: stripesmarine
Fourth Highest: Sergeant Major: ... Sergeant Major: ...
As You See In This Clan Matching, Clan Leader Colonel d1v4d Would Take A 2 Second Glance At The Ranking System From The Opposing Clan, And Know Automatically Who He Will Scout Out For In The Arena Map, Other Clan Leader Colonel metlgearsolid200 Of Erebus .
The Ranking Insignias Go Until 10 Ranks, With The Top 3 Being Military Officer Positions For Those Warriors In Leadership Billets, While The Other Seven Are Enlisted Warrior Ranks Each Earned Through Their Advancements Within The Clan. The Three Officers Would Each Have The Ability To Promote The Other Members Within Their Clan (No Matter The Size Assortment Of The Clan) For Promotions Based A Leveling System SSM Would Figure Out .Lol Or Based On A Empty Position From A Higher Ranking Member Who Left The Clan And Is Now Available For Replacement Of The Specific Rank Below It .
The Other Ranks Below The Fourth Are As Follow;
Fifth Highest: First Sergeant: ...
Sixth Highest: Master Sergeant
Seventh Highest: Gunnery Sergeant
Eighth Highest: Sergeant
Ninth Highest: Lance Corporal
Tenth Highest: Private/ No Insignia
I Know This May Sound To Military For A Ranking System In God of War, But I Think It Does Resemble A Lot To The Story Of Kratos Being A Captain In The Spartan Army And His Ability To Command Spartans In Battle .
It Might Not Be For Every1 But I Think Many Of Us Would Agree On A Clan Ranking Insignia System To Solidify Our Position Within The Clan To Other Clans .
I Know Team Leader d1v4d Has Developed His Own Rank Insignia System, It Just Gives Clan Members A Incentive To Continue Pushing Forward In Order To Make The "Grade" In Their Respective Clans .
If Human Psychology Taught Us Anything Is It Of The Human Mind Wanting To Progress In Any Regard .
Any Disagreements, Suggestions, Feedback, Modifications, Enhancements, & New Ideas Are Welcomed ! : )

^ F***** brilliant idea.
This would help me out (and I'm sure all clans will have this problem) because of the "ranks" I/we want to give our members.
I don't think this should be in the game right off the bat, but maybe in a patch or DLC (can this even be DLC?
)
so that they can focus on it while we help them out with finding bugs/glitches etc.
Overall though, I like the idea a lot, once again ![]()
Great job m8 ![]()

@d1v4d You Already Did It So Perfectly Mate !
Yours Has Eleven "Shade" Ranks Instead Of Ten Regular Military Ranks .
You Just Keep The Insignia Constant, But Altered The Brightness Of It To Signify The Members Ranking And Nomenclature .
Simply Ingenious Mate !
I Just Want SSM To See This And Say This Exact Line "This Is Exactly What Our MP Needs, Rankings And Insignias To Further The Player's Decisions Amongst A Clan And Deliver Depth As Well !"
+1 Kudos Mate You Make Me Feel Honored By Your Magnificent Ideas ; )

@stripesmarine
There are 11 ranks, yes, but the highest one "Psychopomp" is almost unacheivable. Very complicated to obtain.
I enjoy the cropping, btw ![]()
I also hope SSM understands that clans are KEY to competetive play, they should understand.
We'd all be pretty fu**** happy!
P.S: I'm glad my idea is well-portrayed. You understand it perfectly.

I Feel You My Mate .
I Just Hope That When Do Release It, Either 4th Quarter This Year Or Next Year, The Manufacture Suggested Retail Price Is Not More Than $399 At The Most .
But I Also Might Wait Until They (Sony) Release A Uncharted 4 Or A Brand New Exciting IP Unlike Anything We Have Seen From A 1st Party Developer .
Will You Buy It Mate If It Was That Price Or Lower ? Or If Specific Games You Wanted Were Announced ?
I Just Feel That Being A PlayStation® Gamer Is The Best Feeling In The World Right Now !
Do You Agree Mate ? .Lol
Long, Live, Play .

@d1v4d I Also Think That Way Being A Sony Loyalist .Lol
To Honest With Everyone Last Year (2012) I Only Bought One Game, Yes Only One Game .Lol I Even Pre-Ordered It Months Ahead Of It's Release. That Game You Might Be Wondering Is Max Payne 3 (Standard Copy) .
I Did Not Find Any Other Games Interesting For Some Reason That Year, I Might Of Been To Focused On School To Think Straight .Lol
But I Do Agree That This Year Looks Like The Best Year That Sony PlayStation® Is Going To Have With First Party Exclusives, But I Also Think They Have Many More In Store For Us In The Clandestine 4th Quarter .
Are Also Thinking About Buying GTA: V On Launch ? I Have No Option Since I Already Live In Los Santos/Los Angeles .Laughs
