A Clan is a group of players in OpenFront who display a common tag. It is set by putting a tag in your username (for example, “[TAG] Player”). As of Update 34.0 a clan tag picker lets you pick your own clan’s tag instead of guessing it.
Mechanics
Members of the same clan are automatically placed on the same team in team-based modes. Since Update 34.0, clan tags can also be used as the team’s name: a team that is mostly one clan takes that clan’s tag, and a team split between two clans gets a hybrid two-clan name.
Exception
In Free for All (FFA) mode, clan tags do not confer any team affiliation; all participants compete individually, regardless of clan membership.
Clan modal
Clans have their own modal in the game client, with a searchable, paginated member list and game history, and each player’s profile has a Clans tab (see Accounts). Update 34.0 added:
- Donations — members can donate player currency to the clan treasury, and clan currency balances are shown inline. A Donations tab lists them.
- Map — a fullscreen clan map tab (shown as “Coming Soon” on the live game for now).
