    Casual topic : Player Names - Actual Names, or Callsigns?

    casual topic, just a little something to break the monotony...

    maybe Sledgehammer70 can weigh in on this.

    Lorewise - when we name our characters, are the names considered to be a characters "actual" first/last name or are they just Callsigns?

    I know most players won't care, but for me, this distinction will determine how I name my character(s).

    or is this something that we as a Gaming Community can determine for ourselves?

    I believe it's first name, last name and then titles (like "Badlands Drifter") defined by Trion. Could you call your character XxxSepirothN0sc0pe360xxX?

    Sure.

    I wonder if the TV producers will reject shoe-in names like that based on the name itself.

    Well i feel they would leave that up to you
    For 1 character I'm using a call sign
    For another im using just first name
    Since last names don't matter in a wasteland

    Please don't give people ideas about how to name their characters in such a way, something that should be actively suppressed by Trion.

    I'm saying don't tell people that they can have crazy names like that or they choose them and ruin the fun.

    Why? This would seem to me to be a perfect candidate for a General Discussion regarding the game.

    As for me, I'm just going to use me username here, so I suppose that would count as callsign.

    No, we've had this discussion on this forum at least three times i can remember.
    It directly relates to the game..do you choose any name you like, a callsign type or maybe a more rp style name fitting with the Defiance universe.

    I think it bares thinking on for possible future events, but i think either rp style or call signs-as per the ark hunter vids- would be ok.
