Thread: Possible ingame name editor?

  1. #1

    Possible ingame name editor?

    In the future, will we be able to edit our names ingame rather than through Steam? A lot of the guys in my regiment are reluctant to change their Steam names to put regimental tags in it, so just wondering if you will be implementing this in the future.

    Open console, ~ type
    Name Cooolin73

    or Name "Cooolin73 loves PLM"

    You have to do it each time you join though.

    I can't really see us having to use the console to change ingame names every time we play the game. I just hope they add a name change feature like the one in Holdfast

    Haha, I imagine a lot of people would react with that gif if I tell them I'm coming from a Holdfast background. Labelled as infected, I imagine.

    Holdfast, this ain't.

    Let's hope it never will be.

    As I've been recruiting, this has also been a problem for me. Devs, this would be greatly appreciated.

    How do you do that?
