Name input at the beginning ? (Doctor asking your name and birthday)

[Th3DutchZombi3]

Can somebody please tell me for what wil the name be used ?
Is it for online gameplay or for the single player ?

[Sekkuar666]

Both, but I won't tell you why because it is a spoiler. Just keep playing.

[Sekkuar666]

As for birthday, you need to open the game on the day of your birthday

[Th3DutchZombi3]

Sekkuar thanks for the fast reply, i was just wondering i normal play online games with the name TheDutchZombi3 / TheProdigy yet i dont want to see that name in the single player so the name you enter there is for the single player and the multiplayer ?

[Th3DutchZombi3]

Or wil the people in game just call you snake / boss or what ever :) ?

[Th3DutchZombi3]

Somebody please :D?

[Luxia]

People in-game will call you boss/snake, yep.

Yea, nothing like that will ruin your single player story experience.

I just called myself Big Boss, and changed it later to

Totally Not Big Boss

to make the cutscene more funny.

because just like Metal Gear Solid 2, you'll see it written down later

Replay the first mission, Awakening. You might be able to also change it in the "Customise" > Avatar section of the iDroid while on the ACC, too.

[Sekkuar666]

It won't screw your story, don't worry
