easy solution to name changes are just make a “previously known as” besides their name of some sorts for 30 days or however long they decide to make it, and let us only change it once or every 3 months. Runescape has done this for years and most other mmo’s as well
it’s easy money that amazon is leaving on the table
@Shaffer_Spillane that’s a little short sighted, some player’s just don’t like their name, myself included
Character name change is very bad idea and will encourage a lot of account selling.
Or players who will scam other players.
Or players who will scam their companies for own profit, delete all friends and ‘start over’ with a name change.
Yes. Not sure I would pay $30. But certainly something.
And it fits in well with most of the stuff in the store which is appearance only (so no pay to win).
I think Amazon has been poor to exploit the shop (eg in not providing server transfers earlier when there were still servers to transfer to).
im against the name change
we are black listing ppl because their bad behavior, scamming etc.
or blocking ppl because they spam in chat or they are just d.cks
giving them right to change their names isnt solution
its problem for us…
so no name change pls
if you so want to change your name
then start a new char and lwl up again.
that would be at least your punishment for not thinking while choosing your name or scamming ppl etc.
@Trufitus You sat at character creating to come up with a name that would be the name everyone in the world would see, identify you with and know you as and you created a name that you didn’t like?
The account thing for multiple characters wouldnt work because we dont get multiple characters per account per server. It would have very limited use.
Name change thing with global name reservation i think would be an issue. Id love it if they released all the names of players after 90 days of inactivity and forced them to pick a new name on login. If they did that and released names once you change from it that would be okay.
A barbershop would be welcome for sure but they would have to start adding cosmetics for new hair and other options.
All that said this is extremely low on the list of things that the game needs right now.
