I have been talking to a lot of people about a possible name respec, that is something i know that people would spend RL money on. There are tons of people who names get messed up by other players, or the person was drunk when they choose the name. Anyone else feel the same way about paying money for in-game name change.

My name is great!
Oh wait....
I had to change it, apparently people get butt hurt when they are killed by a mercenary named dildomcnutz, that or someone's father was killed by a diIdo. Pretty sure they can change it via ticket but they may not because your name isn't offensive or whatever.

I sent a ticket in almost a year ago and of course they said no so i've been asking people to send in tickets to complain about my name being offensive. But it shouldn't have to take all that to just change your name. DCUO lets you change your name for $10 why can't CCP do something like that.

I want to change my name just because I am called one name in every other game and now feel like it is my real name. On this game I feel no connection to my character name.
Because, that's why.

This. This is why CCP doesn't offer a name change.
In EVE, you can steal (literally) thousands of dollars worth of spaceships. EVE Investment Bank (dunno the exact name, it is EIB though) is/was a bank in EVE. You can get loans to build stuff. One day, the CEO just took all the money, nearly 800 billion ISK, over 15 grand worth of PLEX's I believe. EBANK was another where the CEO took money from the corp to sell it in real life. With real money trading happening, CCP banned the account but otherwise would have done nothing to stop game money embezzlement.
CCP wants you to keep your name as it is a "you have to live in this universe" kind of thing. However, DUST simply doesn't have that kind of capability, you could easily have a page that states "Formerly known as d1bc-kb4g", and CCP would love the opportunity to charge you 10 dollars for the service. Hell, I would expect race changes for money as well. Gender? Maybe.

They should add a nickname. so if your name right now is not right for lore, make it your nickname. if it is make it your full name (last and first) and then make up the new one. That way you keep your reputation and get a new name.

Your name is your reputation in New Eden. Names have histories, they tell others of your successes and failures.
Being able to change your name in-game is basically like a "Reputation Respec". I'm against this.
If you wanted to have a proper name then you shouldn't have picked XxXDethSlayer420BlazeItXxX

Well, normally, I'd say no also - the reasoning being the New Eden universe is important and names meaning something.
Now, IDGAF. CCP has made it apparent that Dust is just a shooter now, loosely based on the EVE lore, and not the grand vision we were first sold.
With that in mind? CCP should take the money. Your name means nothing anymore and will mean nothing again until Legion is (maybe) released.
Of course, this assumes that the TQ Database wouldn't take a massive $hit by allowing name changes.
edit: Oh, and if no one else has figured it out, these new BPO suits are two fold - 1) to get our money and 2) to try out the new BP suit / skill tree for legion |

You cannot change your name in New Eden. Your name matters and you are known by your name. Changing your name means you can hide from people which is not good.

Soraya Xel wrote:I'm very against the idea. Given that we share a universe with EVE in particular. In truth, this is not really a reasonable statement anymore. "We exist in the same universe as another IP, that IP doesn't have X, so we shouldn't have X" is essentially the argument. I know I simplified it but I hope I kept the spirit of it. If I have not, please let me know and I will rectify the statement and still try to keep my point.
In EVE, BPO's are used to build stuff. In DUST, they are free things that never run out. Sure, you could state that all suits and weapons are nanite paste and when we buy an Assault Rifle we are really buying a 'license to print an Assault Rifle' so a BPO is just a never ending license but that is STILL vastly different than what it is for EVE.
In EVE, there are no respecs. In DUST, they cost a little less than 20 dollars.
In EVE, there is friendly fire everywhere. In DUST, this is not the case for public matches and most definitely should stay that way for the game to function decently.
In EVE, Plates and Shield Extenders give the same amount of HP for the right sizes. The difference is that there exists an Extra Large Plate while there is not one Shield Extenders. Shield users get the Extra Large Booster instead. (My memory is foggy as I have not played EVE in years but that was the case when I played.)
In EVE, skill are queued to train. In DUST, we are given unallocated Skill Points.
In EVE, 625k ISK will buy you a weak, non-fitted spaceship that breaks the Theory of Relativity by going ~2,400 times faster than light (5 AU a second warp) and has a mass of 1.113 million kilograms. Hell, a ship that has similar mass and speed is given to free to every Capsuleer that docks without a ship. In DUST, that same price would buy two of my Dropships that are capable of flying I think 250 kilometers an hour, are not equipped for space flight, and can be taken by Infantry anti-vehicle weapons. Clearly our money is not on the same scale despite us sharing the same universe.

If you wanted to have a proper name then you shouldn't have picked XxXDethSlayer420BlazeItXxX I could see it being used by unsavory types for corp theft and greifing which may be interesting from an emergent gameplay aspect. Moderation may become a concern but the GMs and DEV could pull up private lists for prior aliases attached to the network.
It may be interesting to have player pay a blackmail protection fee routinely to keep their aliases from being displayed on their show info page.

Ccp absolutely should NOT ever implement a way for people to change Their names. It goes against allot
For example you could scam and rip off people..which ccp supports and change ur name and get rid of that nasty reputation as a scammer or awoxer...or..saboteur whatever they are ..
Ccp supports the meta for trolling they support player trolling and theft and such ..but as far as I know they don't let you change your name in eve..for this reason and shouldn't let you change it in dust for the same reason ..
This thread was made in beta ..and..it was massively shot down ..for reasons more detailed than what my drunkin slurs provide you ..

Anyway, you can always see the PSN name via player details, so no espionage/infiltration worries really. I think EVE is exploring a similar thing but then you need the character name history to be publicly available to make espionage harder.

Anyway, you can always see the PSN name via player details, so no espionage/infiltration worries really. I think EVE is exploring a similar thing but then you need the character name history to be publicly available to make espionage harder.
In eve name changes would be simple as character history can be viewed in depth.
In Dust it is hard to say as the only available is PSN name and not everyone can memorize a persons Dust name AND PSN name.
No matter what huge thumbs up for name changes in both games. I know it can be made to work without increased espionage risk. The only issue I see is how long a persons old name should be locked from re registering.

Jadek, can you link the old thread? I somehow deleted it from my favorites, and that thread is legendary. We actually trolled CCP HARD in that one. I couldn't find that one, but here's an old thread explaining it.
In other news, I found the old CCP Devs plans for us beta testers...it had a little success.

Do you regret knowing now? The farthest I've gone to trying strange food are silkworm pupae, but I'm not sure if I'd go as far as to eat fermented shark.

lol at all these people who picked joke names without knowing ccp wont let you change.
maybe put some though into your character in a serious game like this. its your own fault.
though i would like to change mine if only because its too long and gets cut off in the players list so people call me lioness instead of lionesse. so ess instead of eeze. i didnt know how long to make the name ahead of time, i should have made a test character. but yeah id change it given the option. still its my own fault. i made my choice and now im stuck with it.
all those people with joke names though should just be changed to clean the game up. im sure ccp has an in house race name generator for npc's

you just need a first name/last name.

well if they ever fix it and allow psn name changes espionage could be in full swing. according to an ign editor that asked them, they only dont allow it now to avoid people in cod and stuff from making joke names and trolling/harassing people then changing the name to get away with it. pretty weak excuse imo

AT one point I did really want to change my characters name. You see at the time I chose my name I had never played mmos before. I never chatted in other games plus I was really just trying this game out. So, I did what i usually do. i created a female character simply because they are easier on the eyes. I mean, if you are going to be staring at a character do you want to be staring at some muscular dude posing or some hot female? Anyways, since I had the female character I figure I might as well give it a female name. I had the kids help me with that. i wanted something spacy so Luna it was. The kids chose the Mcduffing name which later turn out that they where trolling me. To me it sounded Irish. I envision my character as some perky yet easy to set off (short tempered and feisty) Irish female with fire red hair. My girl told me it was a joke to make my character sound like McDonalds as in the fast food restaurant. HAHAH damn kids. Anyways, I liked the name for a bit until I figure that since I was playing this game a lot I might as well buy a mic. At the beginning it wasn't a problem because I did not belong to any corps but, once I did and everybody started calling me Lune ugh I wasn't happy. Luna go over there! Luna repair me. Lune hack whatever. I cringed every time I heard it.After a year or so of hearing it now I'm use to it and like other said, since my reputation is building up (hopefully a good reputation) then I don't see the need to change it any more. I still do fantasize about other names I would had named my character. Here are some. Most of them are joke names.
Grandma - because when you got killed or beat then people will say oh men you got beat by grandma. Blade Rogers - base on a fictional character from the show the kids in the hall. He was a fictional **** star The Butcher's bastard son - great for a heavy character. El Bastardo - the bastard in spanish Galactico - The character from the animation starketeers EMPTY SLOT - I think this one was already taken.
There where others but, they are inappropriate names so I wont mention them here. |

I Have played EVE online since Open Beta. Part of the charm through this time is you build your reputation in the game on your character name. Your actions and misactions stay with you.
This is a vital part to CCP games and the New Eden Galaxy.
Creating proper warnings in the character creation process for new players trying out the product makes sense? Warning them that this name is permanent and you cannot change it ever will go a long way to avoiding these problems.
People have to make a new PSN account to change their PSN name... There should be no difference ever in DUST.
Specially when there are still major mechanic issues that don't even have plans to be addressed for this IP.
And you have that whole issue with Killing Nanite injectors from the game, That I warned you and CCP about for a year and a half now? What are revives down by 600% now? Truly sad. |

All this kidding and laughter aside for a second, let me say... EVE is a PC game, so players are used to stepping into a PC game and taking up a character role that you can get serious and committed about. Dust is a PS3 console game, so a LOT of the customers who picked this game up, just mistook it for the typical GÇ£grab a gunnie, hang a moniker/ callsign on your ***** and shoot man, shootGÇ¥ fps. They didnGÇÖt realize the game was SO long, and that it was about building a lasting clone-character you get committed to.
IGÇÖm sure many of them no see Dust as merc GÇ£charactersGÇ¥ wanting to be taken seriously with serious names, and would love to get trade in their monikers for New Eden-style first-n-last names. And, yes, we also still have the GÇ£indecency issueGÇ¥ with some playersGÇÖ names violating CCPGÇÖs regulations.
So if CCP can come up with a way to honor some kind of free, one-time RE-name request of your character, I say ROCK-ON!!

My Brain will hurt for the rest of the day after trying to wrap my mind around the whole PC Players know better and Console players are "Special" argument you have going on.
Your Characters name is your reputation in the game. Changing your name changes your history of what you have done in the game.
You can't change your PSN name without making a new account, There should be no difference in a CCP game, And people should come to expect this out of a CCP Product. |
