Where do you change nickname?
I came out with a silly name (CCCPxEkranoplan :D ) for the Closed Beta, thinking it won't carry over into the full release since it's a separate entry in the game library.

As of right now, I haven't yet found the menu where you can change it, so maybe someone enlighten me

Thanks

I was prompted to create an in game name when I completed 2 2v2 games following the tutorial and bot games... so if its a seperate entity to the EA game, I figure you will go through the same process? Not sure if that helps you though...

I asked them about name changing, and they said it wasn't planned for you to be able to change your name in game. I feel like we should be able to change name if we feel as well. some people like to change names to include what team they are on and things like this. so name changing would be good for them to add. but for now, they say it is not planned. https://twitter.com/Battlerite/status/776477633563492354

they should at least allow to change your name when you buy the full game, not force you to keep the Closed Beta one, maybe in closed beta I didn't give a damn on the name and went random like AFAWHJZKLIE to get to the testing part faster... lol

bump
Still.Dope Apr 15, 2017 @ 2:34pm 
Yeah, bump, we need name change, at least 1 time...

Just message the support?
Still.Dope Apr 15, 2017 @ 2:49pm 
Why just message the support when this should be a common sense feature straight out of the box. There are others who want this too so what's better? A basic feature implemented or 1232131231 messages to support? I'm sure support staff have better things to sort out.
CriErr Apr 15, 2017 @ 2:55pm 
Because exactly why it should be easily accessible?
Still.Dope Apr 16, 2017 @ 3:01am 
Because they did not specify anything like " choose your beta name, but keep in mind that this name will be permanent".

Usually things that impact your account forever need to be documented so the players know what they are doing.

If they don't want you to change names they should at least enable you to pick a name when you get the game. Not force you to go with the beta one since they didn't warn you that what you pick for beta will be permanent. Since most games nowadays allow you to change your name or juat usr your current steam name, we assumed it will be the same with this (again, because they did not tell us it will be permanent) and went random names for beta.

It feels like you reverse engineer it and the whole point made up just to fit your situation.
Still.Dope Apr 16, 2017 @ 1:01pm 
It's not making up the whole point, it's just stating how this went.

It feels like you defend the lack of a basic feature and/or the lack of documentation about the naming process. If your name will be permanent you should know about that, if the beta name will carry over to the full release and stick to you permanently, boy does it help knowing that. Period.

I'm sure if you had actually played betta and went through the naming process like "whatever, i just wanna play" and hit your name as "awedwqkeqekuawj" you would think otherwise. Maybe you got it right, but me and some others at least did not care for a beta test name....

Stop being irrelevant to the topic, however you look at it it's either lack of feature or lack of information.

You can keep your relentless defense up though, bumping this enough and maybe some dev will see this.

While I agree- you need a name change and the "permanent information" should have been there to warn you, it was silly to just slap random crap as a name. Honestly dumb level, and I won't defend impatience as an excuse for it haha.

I would recommend they refresh the system of player names when they launch the F2P version so everyone can be a new player. Though keeping the stuff they have earned is necessary obviously.

I'd say clan tags would be nice as well, but obviously people put inappropriate crap when they are allowed to change their names/tags at will, so I will defend their choice thus far to not allow name changes. Keeps the scum out of the system if you will. Possibly a pay-2-namechange later.

TL:DR-
Name change on F2P launch, no changing it after.

I agree, name change needs to bee added, I unfortunately misspelled my name so bad it became another word. I was just so hyped over the game so I didn't look properly. I have written an mail to the support and asked if they or I could change my name. Just bought the game because i liked it so much so now I don't want to have a misspelled name!

Its so awesome that "Blodline" is getting a "revamp"! This is how BL should have been! Its everything i want right now! Just a fast pvp game! Lovely!
Is concentrating for few seconds while typing your name really that incredibly hard for people?

I am seriously asking.

Well for me it is, I have dyslexia and didn't noticed it for a couple of hours! And it's not just about misspelling it's for beta names as well. Hope you got your answer!
