Possible Idea for Later Implementation

Well, we have a clans section on the forums, and I am not sure how many people would like the idea, but I think it's worth putting out there.

Having an actual clan (and/or corporation) system in game, where you and your clan can chat without playing in the same server, as long as you're online with clan chat enabled. Perhaps clans can make a tiny logo out of a small grid in game (think patterns in animal crossing, but smaller), where the logo would be something players can proudly display somewhere on their ship or bases, should they want to.

 

Oh that will be some sort of Guild System. In suggestions forum we are Asking for a MMO inside Starbound, ahaha that's my conclusion.
It won't be a bad idea for bigger servers to exist Clans, but it's more likely a Clan to Have a server of their own.

Still I heard something about Clan System / Chat some time ago, but no confirmations

 

Tiy said they want to implement a guild, clan or corporation system, all being similar. This wont come in untill post release and may only be restricted to multiplayer, making sense.

 

Oh thats lovely news to hear! I am now very excited.

 

i don't think it's possible to have cross server chat, unless you somehow connect those servers, but each server is a player's PC somewhere, so if they're connected, what's the point of having multiple servers? just play on the same one.

 

Suggesting such an ingame clan/corp-system isnt new (sorry), its like elevators, meteors and whatnot
I would also prefer a cross-server communication for clans/corps but that would require another server like using an IRC network.
So if they would implement a simple IRC client into the game or even better a terminal with SSH client we could do some fancy magic and simply connect to IRC where clan/corp channels are located ... ingame or not, you could chat with your buddies.

PS: this also belongs to suggestions IMO
