Q: What is the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Clan Migration?
• Clan Migration for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare allows current Clan Leaders in Cross-Network Clans to reserve their Clan names and manage their roster for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare on a selected console network, so that their entire Clan is set up and ready to go on launch day. See the Cross-Network Clan Migration section below for more information.
• Network-Specific Clans will be automatically migrated to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. See the Network-Specific Clan Migration section below for more information.
Q: Will my Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Clan be the same as my Call of Duty: Ghosts Clan?
• No. Your Call of Duty: Ghosts Clan and Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Clan will be two distinct entities.
Q: What makes a Call of Duty: Ghosts Clan a “Cross-Network” Clan, or a “Network-Specific” Clan?
• Cross-Network Clans are Clans that have at least one member that plays on a different console network than the rest of the Clan (e.g., some members on Xbox Live, some members on PlayStation Network).
• Network-Specific Clans are Clans where all members of the Clan play on one console network only (e.g., all members are on Xbox Live only).
