Every other player name shows up as "Unknown Player"

[RumbleFish]

I've restarted the game and steam and every player in game (even teammates) doesn't show their profile name, it says "Unknown Player".

Click the hide names button

Also, it will randomly turn back on at times. I've had to turn the hide names button off like 20 times since the big update.

Yup, Fail-Tek ninja patched a useless and unwanted Hide Player Names toggle... Really wish Fail-Tek would put in even half the effort to catch cheaters that they put forward to protect their identy this game would be pretty cheater free

I thought this was happening to me randomly too.. until someone told me there is a hot key for switching names from seen to unseen in some of the menus. Figured out i was hitting it when i alt-tabbed. So, yeah, theres a hot key for that.

Hitting TAB on your death screen will toggle names on and off.

and also when you check team details ^
