sonickat Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Non unique surnames and allow us to change them once every 90 days for free. Provide a means to change your surname via a credit and time sink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewcastle Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I want to change my first name... That too tbh. Don't follow in the footsteps of WoW Bioware. I know you are better than that. Don't lock us out of basic BASIC stuff such as changed our own names...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuuj Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 With Surnames being unique, I can't believe people are actually surprised that they can't have more than one on a server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folgrin Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 /signed twice This issues bugs me so much. It seems so trivial on paper but it really irks me. All im asking for is one free reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reynnas Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I asked Stephen Reid this: it does nothing. And, not only that, but I asked what would happen if you deleted every character on the server. Know what happens then? Nothing! You can't even petition for a surname change -- the GMs are unable to do that! I mean, really, it's mind-boggling. Name changes are just a part of life in MMOs. People get dissatisfied; they make mistakes; they have a change of heart -- how could you possibly launch a system whre NOT EVEN THE GMS CAN CHANGE SURNAMES, BIOWARE?? I agree with this post. While part of all of your characters legacy, or family tree as some dubbed it(even BW?), may be good, as the legacy progresses, some may become evil, and vice versa. As for why I changed the font of that text to indigo, I think that applies to the possibility of somehow changing ACs... While this post has five stars, there are other posts about the same issue but with ACs that have one(Yes, mine)... I'm not trying to change the discussion anymore than pointing this out or go off-topic anymore than that, but I think that sentence relates to the other subject.

MaxMorr Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I think many people like me play game in "in-window" mode.If i check "Fullscreen" mode - ive got only BLACKSCREEN mode... Because game cant starts nor,al with some kind of videocards. And BioWare know it. And many peoples on some forums klnow about this problem. So... Then my time has come and i create my legacy name... "Pilip-pilip* - oh! Somebody want something from me in ICQ... I was open ICQ window, write something there... Press enter... HOLY CRAP I CREATE LEGACY NAME!!!

Highsis Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 At LEAST let the legacy names reset when you delete all characters on the server. Until implemented, I'm unsubscribing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nexaar Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) I support this. The whole idea about legacy seems incredibly stupid and XBOX style to me. A Twi'Lek doesn't have the same last name as a Human, unless he/she is adopted into the same family. It's also very hard to choose a good name that you will be happy with for the rest of your SWTOR playtime. You should be able to change it whenever you like for a fee and your characters should have different names. People who choose names like Cheeseburger or Spermcake, should get a penalty, as was suggested before, because they clearly show their intention isn't to keep up a good atmosphere. It can be compared to trolling actually. Edited February 16, 2012 by nexaar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voqar Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I'd like to change mine just because the casing of letters changed in it when it committed making it much less visually appealing and I usually don't show it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murrdogg Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 bioware added letters and removed an apostrophe from my selected name, rendering it even more stupid and meaningless than I had intended. CAN'T believe they wouldn't add an option to change it. COME ON BIOWARE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VelnikSP Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 This is the most viewed topic in the suggestion category of the forums... and still no word from BW... why? Because legacy names are the only way to keep track of trolls and ninjas in-game, and changing legacy names would make people immune to the social consequences of their misbehavior, perhaps?
