Huxley Name Problem

[aVaid]

Well this isnt a problem with a game its just something i was wondering.

In Huxley will you only be able to have one character with a set name or would u be able to change as u wish like in CS:S and CoD2. Because if people make clans and they want to recruit in-game that person would have to make a new character to put there Tags on. This is really frustrating to me cos i can never stick with a name in a MMORPG. I usually make atleast 10 different character before i stick to one name.

I hope someone can help me with this.

Well.. it will probably use the same system as any other MMOG , the cahracter name is sacred and will not change but it will simply add your clan name or tags on to it. The game is persistent and on one server it would be unlikely that you can change your character name at will, ive not seen any MMOGs that allow this.. i doubt there are any?

When i make a charactor, i dont like to rename them, once made its made... if i want to do something different ill make a new one ~Shrug~

I think on the 360 at least, they will use your GT. But if your using PC then try and really think about the name you want to use before you ever get the game. That will give you time to decide if you like it or not.

Naw, I love the fact that most people in MMO's have to keep their name or start from scratch. Scam someone or be a complete jerk and you have to live with it. And you have to live with their 35 friends hunting you down all the time. Electronic natural selection.

Exactly

i like having just 1 name because u can know who ur friedns r and everythin

[Archerofgun]

I've already found my favorite MMOG name I'll probly stick with it for a looong time so everyone knows who i am. *hint hint, signature, hint*

[Haloplayer]

If I have a choice I would more then likely stick with Haloplayer. I've had that as my GT when I first got XBL, way before Halo 2 came out.

omg i cant believe i forgot how they put tags on lol. This thread doesnt really matter now lol...

I do not agree with name changing. A name in game should be as it is in real life, unique, your one thing you can hold on to and people can respect you by. If everyone and anyone is changing thier name it will be too hard to keep track of people. On top of that, if some kind of cheating comes out for Huxley it would be close to impossible to track them down because as soon as they cheated someone they'd change their name (Sort of like robbing a store then getting your finger prints changed).

[kamikaze]

Tracking cheating would be easy as despite any name changes each character / player will have their own user id on the server so it's no problem for the developers to track who is who.

There is one really good reason for allowing name changes and it's happened to me in the past . . . .

If some jerkoff picks a name that is very, very similar to yours and starts causing grief then you will get the blame - at this juncture you can either try to explain to everyone you meet what's going on or just change your name. Guess which works best . . . :-)

[ArmorKing]

Thats a good point there Kamikazi, that would be a good reason for name change... even if you ban a guy like that, hes bound to come back and choose another name close to it and start again.... I just honestly think if your going to make a charactor, make sure you like the name you give him, if you go through and dont like it, make a new charactor... most online games nowadays have many slots for charactors.

yeh suppose. Oh well i'd jus keep makin characters like normal lol
