For Honor would benefit so much with a guild/clan system
Social aspects matter.
For Honor is an amazing idea, but what the game needs is more social aspects added to it. We go bark on about balance for an eternity, and it'll never be satisfying enough for people. Balance isn't what makes people stay for a game, it's only a factor, what truly makes people remain are the friendships and relations they have with other people in a game.
New heroes are great
New reworks are good
New events and maps keeps the game fresh
For Honor needs a guild system where people can hang out with each other, have fun time dueling or see who has the biggest D amongst themselves. The idea is pretty simple.
Before we can get into the actual system, however, something else has to be added first.
Global chat in the multiplayer menu
- Small window with 1-3 tabs where you can type a global message
- Option to toggle said window on or off
- Whisper function
Now we got that out of the way
Guild/Clan system
This can open up so much potential that really makes the For Honor grind worth something.
As mentioned, it's a simple idea. Each guild/clan has a guild master, jarl, clan leader, president, king or whatever you wanna call it, and is the one responsible for managing the guild. The leader can create sub-ranks that he can give out to his members.
The ways of earning power in the hierarchy is entirely up to the leader. It could be anything from reaching a certain rep to competing in trials organized by the officers (like winning a 1v2 match against guildies), or even make a system where you can challenge someone for their position through trial by combat.
So what even is the point of all that? Yet again, it's simple. With a guild (and a guild chat) you now have people to play with all the time. You can at any point make the decision to play with people that you know, and I guarantee that it'll enhance the For Honor experience greatly. Chances are you'll make a discord server, as most groups do, where you'll get to know each other even better.
How many of you actively have friends to play with in this game, yet alone a community?
You can do even more. Guild wars. Clash against another guild in dominion or breach and collect fame, ranking and compete to be the best guild out there.
Put as much customization option onto this as the heroes themselves (emblem editor is horrible), and you have the potential to make an outstanding banner or other form of representation that'll make you feel like you're "in the zone".
