We had one clan meeting this year in July, playing Paintball in the Netherlands. 9 Members from the Netherlands and Belgium participated in this event, making it to a big success! The video is still on its way, we did not forget about that!
In 2013 we plan to go to Gamescom in Cologne again, and to host another clan meeting somewhere else in Europe (Germany maybe, maybe combine it). In the beginning of 2013, we will start to draft the plans for this meeting.
Community developments:
The community branched out from its original games which we supported at the beginning of the year. We started with just BFH, BFP4F and BF3, and may more titles have been added to this list. Some or being played on a more regular base than others, with BFP4F and BF3 still being the main games in our community. We noticed people playing a lot of other games, from ARMA II mods to online poker, changing this community into a true home for all online games.
The total number of members slightly dropped compared to last year, however the average duration of membership went up significantly. We had some people coming and going, and also people coming back again after thinking the grass is greener on the other side (which they found out it isn’t the hard way). Seeing these people coming back, shows that we don’t do things that bad compared to other communities. We strongly believe that people should go and play where and with whom it makes them happy, the internet is a big place after all.
The average age also increased a lot, which some of the senior citizens of our community find a good development.
Looking ahead:
2013 Will be an interesting year. We expect Battlefield 4 or Bad Company 3 coming out at the end of the year, DayZ going stand alone, and lots of other games released. We will closely monitor the developments and try to give support to games which people in the community wish to play.
We will also try and address the younger gamers (<18 ). Plans about this are still being drafted, but don’t worry, the ‘Older’ members won’t notice this.
A big thank you:
We would especially like to thank all members of the community who did something extra for other community members or the community in general this year, being it organizing events, performing staff duties or anything providing a well-run home for all members to play online. We can’t do everything ourselves, and having you all help out in your free time is very welcome!
We wish you all a safe and happy new year!
Take care of your loved ones, which is the only thing which truly matters!
Edward and Frank
P.S. Sorry, this year we didn't send out any Christmas cards, unfortunately we did not have time for the design, printing and everything. This will return next year!
