    Make ingame names as long as the steam nicknames

    Ideally we'd want to change our names ingame. Currently it uses your steam nickname. Until the ideal feature is in, (where the game takes your steam name) why not make it just as many characters? Right now it seems WoR is three characters shorter than the steam name, meaning that people with longer surnames will find it difficult to cram everything, including company ID in their name without their surnames being cut off.

    Found that out myself today where people kept calling me "Dew". XD

    I would be thoroughly pleased if the maximum character limit were to be increased. Designating Corps, Regiment, Company and Rank leaves little room for your actual character's name with the current limitations. I suppose you would have to widen the chat UI and the Tab menu, but I don't think that either of those things would negatively impact gameplay. I'm all for longer names.

    Yeah this probably should be done. For the sake of long names and tags.

    Any chance of this change being implemented? Tired of being called Sled.
