It would be really nice if people had a good reason to join clans. Like clan based dungeons/events/objectives. etc.
for sure on board with that personally. The clan functionality does feel a little off right now. almost like it doesnt belong in the game. Lets hope there will be some big stuff in the future that gives a bigger sense to clans!
just being able to track clan activity and last time members were online would be nice at this point
I agree. Honestly it is a little sad that Diablo Immortal has better Clan support than Diablo 4.
They can give all the reasons in the world to join a clan, but in all other games, I refuse to join them for one reason or another.
Also, they have world bosses, that is pretty much where a clan could be handy.
Nevertheless, I highly doubt they will introduce anything into the game that solely has people joining clans.
Any such event or addition to the game, will work the same way World Bosses work, where independent/solo players will just partner up with random others, to never ever see them again after the objective has been completed/failed.
In addition, if they do add clan stuff, people will just join to reap the rewards and leave. You will also have a bunch of people just hogging a spot to benefit, but give little to no effort to contribute.
Clans need to have major purpose and contribute positively to the game. Been working on a post for it but its proving very hard.
i have joined several clans, sadly they have always been dead clans. I.E. 140+ members and 2-3 people online at any moment. They need better clan tools, as well as better looking for clan options.
It is low on their priority list, check back in 6-12 months or so and weāll probably see something.
well, why not.
But, there shouldnāt be any kind of item , event etc⦠locked behind clan in my opinion.
Extra things you can get already even if solo : why not (like some extra cache or something) but not titles or cosmetics or item you can only get if in clan in my opinion.
Diablo is afterall a franchise mostly played solo.
if you gate content behind clan, and more accurately force you to go in big clan : it would be very bad in my opinion.
Itās an aarpg not a mmorpg after all.
But if itās thing like hunter / tree cache which only give random items etc⦠why not.
like this?
Itās an online game with no social tools from a company with one of the most successful MMORPGs of all time. One hand clearly has no idea what the other is doingāthe entire Diablo team should be cleaned, top to bottom.
You see, the answer is very simple
Effort, thought and creativity,
Blizzard has a complete lack of all 3 atm.
After playing immortal from its launch, for about 8 months, our clan held top3-10 on our realm the entire time, we formed an alliance with about 20 other clans, involving about 1000 players total. There was a ton of clan based interactions and activity, not to mention rewards for participation. I fully expected Diablo 4 to have some form of that content. Immortal should not have better clan content that Diablo 4. Immortal was mostly rebuilt from another game made by NetEase back in like 2004. Its almost the same game.

Diablo 4 has been a huge let down, both in content and in enjoy-ability.
Play an MMO then. The shoehorned group content and forced shared world already annoyed enough long-time players of the series.
Iād honestly be all about a Diablo MMO. But not as a main series title.
Only if I can access it all with a clan of one.
Immortal is S tier when it comes to getting players to spend. They ingeniously made pvp the focus so everyone wants to be better than everyone else. Nice marketing ploy! Works so well. You see streamers and players spending oodles to get best gems as its just % chance.
Diablo 4 is online only, multiplayer only, and most of the āend gameā stuff is not meant to be solod.
Diablo has always been a group play game, in the old days it was on lan/open bnet and god forbid, bnet 1.0
It never had forced group content. It was always a solo game with the option to play with others.
I played Diablo over LAN. That was a pain in the rear because I had to take my computer to a friendās house, but I still did it. Iām right there with you.
But saying āHey you should group up for these world bosses/legion events, oh and youāll see people around and can randomly interact with themā is very half baked and goes against the seriesā identity as experiences in a lonely, depressing world. I donāt want more. Iām not alone.
A clan stash would be nice too.
No one is saying anything about āforcedā group content. I am saying this game needs to have clan based objectives or events. Maybe even competitions between other clans.
