Name reservation for pre-order

[Aaricane]

That is actually a really good system. And for Xbox users, we already have gamertags, so that would be solved... However, it might make friend adding and stuff somewhat annoying.

PSU did it that way. It worked splendid.

Or reset our Beta characters allowing us to keep the name and customization.

I'd rather not have that. Even though i know how precious a name can be to someone, I'd rather it be first come first served.

Note:Pre-Ordering isn't "First come first served".

Even with a pre-order name reservation system like several games have done, it's still 'first come, first served'. Pre-order has absolutely nothing to do with it.

This is something you're seeing done more and more... I'd be in support of name reservations with pre-order. I have a couple names I'd want to have.

I made my own thread on this by accident (although I could have searched BEFORE I made the thread, but it slipped my mind).

I want name reservations, I don't need more than 1 name to reserve, I only want 1 name to reserve and reserving my desired name is important to me. That is all. My thread (that could be merged because of my idiocy).

It happens no worries! I do agree, I'd like to reserve a name but if I can't I hope I get there first lol.

i been playing mmos for god knows how many years, and one thing i have learnt, almost every new game the last name i used is nearly was taken by someone else.

i have a catalog of 20/30 names i use because i never get the names i want.

the thing that winds me up is people who start a game fill up all there slots with characters just to keep a bunch of names, that they never use.

so id be in support of name reservation, as long as its only 1.

Its a tough request because there will be the instance of another player (unlikely as it may seem) using the exact name for another game they are into. Just to be fair I see it on a first come first serve basis. Its tough if one is attached but out of 7 other billion people in the world somebody has the same name somewhere. Not trying to troll or upset but if two people use the same name and both pre-order at the same time who is preference given to?

Funny... I did the Planetside 2 beta into release. I had the same name through (it's fairly common name and only one word)... the servers switched a half dozen times throughout the beta and release. When they finally settled on server names, my character name was now taken. :\

I hate that. But like you, I have a few I use. I'd only need one reserved though.
