Shipmate Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Is there a way to change my in-game name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry d'Esterre Darby Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Not just now, unfortunately. There is a character creation feature coming in the future that will allow this, but for now, your name is set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest raat Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Not just now, unfortunately.

Change your Steam name and you've changed your IGN in NA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipmate Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 Thanks for the quick replies folks. I have changed my Steam name, but it doesn't seem to be changing in-game for Naval Action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest raat Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Hmm, perhaps it's changed then. I always understood it to just represent your current Steam name...anyone know for sure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Hood Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 It does not change your in game name. They have stated that a function shall be brought in but changing one has no impact on the other currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axos Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I asked a dev about this he told me that there will be many wipes and plenty of chances to change our name during them so you are not stuck with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeRuyter Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 If you go to your profile you can edit your forum ID, but I am not sure what that does to your in game name. I am thinking about it because someone else is using mine but with a space. The system should have caught that but I guess not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry d'Esterre Darby Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Not true. Your IGN is your Steam name. Change your Steam name and you've changed your IGN in NA. True, you have never been able to change your in game name after your initial login. Hmm, perhaps it's changed then. I always understood it to just represent your current Steam name...anyone know for sure? Nope, hasn't changed. First login, you're stuck with whatever you choose. If you go to your profile you can edit your forum ID, but I am not sure what that does to your in game name. I am thinking about it because someone else is using mine but with a space. The system should have caught that but I guess not. Forum name has no bearing on in-game name. The system is designed to prevent flat out duplicates. It won't catch spaces, alternate characters, etc. - it's just not designed to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipmate Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Well, I hope they allow you to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuka Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I remember I was diddling around on my first opening of the game trying to log in through other means, put Stuka as the name and that stayed rather then my steam name somehow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry d'Esterre Darby Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I was given an option to choose a name on first load as well Stuka. I'm not sure people notice the dialog and just accept the default, which may be their steam name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
