Hi, I'm CHMMP, i recently started up a clan Nothern Coalition. [NC.]. <(not a thing yet) I have been playing this game for a couple weeks now, mainly Multiplayer custom games, and a couple 1v1 ranked matches. The thing is 1v1 ranked matches aren't really my thing, and the multiplayer custom games kinda get boring after a while. Which got me thinking, since i prefer teamplay, why dont we have 2v2, 3v3 & 5v5 ranked matches, where we can sign up our clan. From there we can decide whose got the best clan. I came up with this because i believe competetive gameplay in the form of teams and official ladders, will get more people to the game. Also more opportunities to host more tournaments such as Allstars, Nations cup, World cup. All hosted by Uber themself, and streamed on twitch. Lets make Planetary Annihilation a thing. I understand that there are bigger priorities over this, just dont cross it of your list just yet. Kindly regards, CHMMP[NC.]

In the mean time, if you want more challenging games, I suggest you jump onto our (Promethean) teamspeak and organize some games with us We usually have members online during the day on weekends and evenings during the week, GMT / UTC time zone. Our TS details can be found here: https://sites.google.com/site/prometheanpa/contact Other clans you might want to approach for games: Team Burning, VoW and The Realm are all very active and welcome players into their various voice chat systems.... Final bit of advice, most of the community stuff in PA is build around mods. I would highly recommend getting the "Pa Mod Manager" (PAMM for short) which can be found in the modding sub forum. From there you can manage all sorts of mods. For competitive PA I'd recommend getting PA:Stats as a start. That gives you very detailed statistics of your performance during the game, and as a bonus adds in a global chat with anyone else who uses the mod. That's also a good way to organize a more formal game. PA:Stats is also the way we can host custom servers for much larger games (we have done up to 40 players in the past this way). Anyway thanks for the suggestions, I agree a team ladder or something like that would be great as many people prefer team play to 1 v 1. Hopefully Uber will be able to add this down the road
