Clan

Clans are a way for you to play together with your friends throughout your Metal Gear Online experience. Clans help you feel like you're not playing alone, but with close friends. In some cases it makes you feel like your a part of a brotherhood. You can keep everyone in the clan updated by using the clan notice.

Clan Emblem
Your clan emblem is the insignia all corresponding clan members wear to represent the clan itself. The clan leader chooses the emblem for the clan, or he can assign emblem editing rights to someone else in the clan. That member then sends back his/her finished work and the leader can either edit it further or display it as is. Once an emblem is displayed, it can't be changed until a full week has passed. Once you "undisplay" an emblem, it can't be re-displayed for a full week meaning no emblem to represent. If you don't know what to create for your clan's emblem, you can use and/or get ideas from already made emblem samples.

Tournaments & Survival
Once you've formed a clan, you can participate together in either a tournament or in survival. You can play both games solo, but it is much more fun to play as a team. These are counted as official games and directly affect your clan's stats so you have a better chance at winning as a team than by yourself with strangers. Assuming you do have the 3 expansion packs.
