Kaur Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 It always amazes me how can they be so clueless about their own game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Slayas Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Very interesting, definitely looking forward to the next one. As a clan leader, I can honestly say that everything mentioned about how EOC has affected many clans (negatively) is overwhelmingly true.

unclebilly1 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 The "year of the clan" succeeded at killing of almost all PvP clans. Maybe that's what they meant. :kanye: The EoC was the final nail in the coffin, but let's be honest, it was a pretty big freaking nail. Most top clan's memberlists had already begun to drop leading up to the EoC release due to the negative perception, once it implemented they pretty much fell off a cliff. The state of clanning now is a joke. Look at the top clans (in no particular order) before and after the 'year of the clan' and the introduction of the EoC (a few of these numbers might be a bit off, doing it from memory): January 2011Runescape Dinasty - 150 members - pulled 80-120 to fightsViolent Resolution - 220 members - pulled 80-170 to fightsThe Titans - 110 members - pulled 65-100 to fightsDivine Forces - 110 members - pulled 65-100 to fightsEcho of Silence - 110 members - pulled 50-80 to fightsReign of Terror - 110 members - pulled 65-100 to fightsSolace - 95 members - pulled 50-80 to fightsCorruption - 100 members - pulled 50-80 to fightsThe Rising - 100 members - pulled 50-80 to fightsTRWF - 85 members - pulled 50-60 to fightsFools - 85 members - pulled 50-60 to fightsChivalry Legions - 80 members - pulled 50-60 to fightsWilderland - 70 members - pulled 40-60 to fightsInfliction - active P2P clanBrutality - active P2P clanKill Orgy - active P2P clanAncient Fury - active P2P clanInfliction - active P2P clanHigher Forces - active pure clanEoP - active pure clan January 2013Runescape Dinasty - DeadViolent Resolution - Lost 73% of memberlistThe Titans - Lost 70% of memberlistDivine Forces - Lost 55% of memberlistEcho of Silence - DeadReign of Terror - DeadSolace - Lost 45% of memberlistCorruption - DeadThe Rising - DeadTRWF - DeadFools - Dead?Chivalry Legions - Lost 45% of memberlistWilderland - :pst 66% of memberlistInfliction - DeadBrutality - DeadKill Orgy - DeadAncient Fury - DeadInfliction - DeadHigher Forces - DeadEoP - Dead I guess your clan is lucky if you only lost 50% of your memberlist. EoC may be a more engaging combat system for the solo player or monster hunter, but it's abolute garbage for large-scale warring. Jagex is trying to turn their game into any other button-mashing MMO clone, strange move in my opinion since 1. Other MMO's have been doing that style longer and better, and 2. Other similar aged MMO's are also losing players. Runescape lost the one thing that made it truly unique, a combat and drop system that encouraged large scale wars. The new system encourages 10 vs 10's or 20 vs 20's, and that's exactly what we're getting. And in clan wars to boot. Awful. On topic: Glad to see someone taking an interest in the Clan seciton with this Chronicle. Thanks for the effort. Wished there were more people to read it and get involved with it.
