kimaji Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 What are the in-game naming rules? Can you use spaces to make a first and last name, or use hyphens or apostrophes... anything like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robisowe Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 apostrophe is the only way to separate as far as I know. But not sure because I am a second class citizen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenderBending Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 You can use apostrophes. I dunno about hyphens. No spaces. When you finish your character's Act 1, you'll get to choose a last name. You'll also have a number of titles to choose from, so don't try to squeeze a title or a last name into your character name.

Wolfeisberg Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 From my understanding, spaces cannot be used, but there are a few non letter characters that can be used. Also this game has a legacy system which is where you create a last name for your character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, thank you, does your last name show up to others. And when you say you get to choose a last name do you mean like from a list of presets, or actually come up with our own?

Ahknorath Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 what about the Legacy naming system is that completely up to the player or are those names randomly generated for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtPlay Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I saw someone with a hyphen today. I believe the name was Tech-no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suavecita Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I believe Legacy names are unique. So there can't be 2 players on the same server with the last name Jones. Only the person who got through chapter 1 first can use Jones and it applies to all his toons on that server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be unique. So if someone else's last name (legacy name) is Flintstone, you can't also choose Flintstone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThiborF Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Both hyphens and apostrophes were allowed in beta so presumably in launch. Haven't gotten my email yet so can't say for sure. BW's official naming policy is here: http://www.swtor.com/legalnotices/roc Section D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahknorath Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Ok, thank you again, one last question, about when (lvl wise) do you complete act 1? believe it was about 18-20, just got my first helmet and they sent me to a new planet, got my starship and everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenderBending Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I got to 29 on my Sith Inquisitor during thanksgiving weekend beta, and I hadn't yet finished Act 1. I'm pretty sure I was getting close though... so it's probably 30-35ish. A more experienced beta tester would know better than I, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
