I think one option to prevent abuse of name changing would be to limit it for example to one name change/year.

I think name changing "might" become crazy switching back and forth. Make it chargeable like someone else mentioned. Maybe dye traders can also "dye your hair...or change your hair style for that matter. I dont think face should change but you should be able to change your hair style....dont we?

/NOT Signed, out of respect for the devs.

What kind of idiot developer uses user-generated content as unique keys? This is Guild Wars, not some crap script someone wrote in 15 seconds. It's most definitely a unique ID that identifies your character.

I would like to see the ability to change name and hair, would like to see it set up kind of like Fable. For people that have never played it if you make your guy eat all kind of crap he gets fat, if he is in the sun a lot he gets a tan, if he carries a big weapon he gets swole up ect ect ect

Irritation_Conflogaration · Jan 02, 2008, 12:04 AM // 00:04

as mentioned multiple times before it would aslo be fortunate to be able to change height, skin color, face shape, etc.

It will not happen, makes it very easy for hackers.

for anyone who is worried about friends list/ignore list...these are account based so changing a characters name would have no effect on losing your friends or having ignored people being able to bother you again.

Please Anet put a name change NPC in the game!!

They need to put this in, along with a Barber, and Plastic Surgeon.

I have a PvP Mesmer with about 300 or so Reward Points spent into, and I don't like his name, or the way he looks, but I don't want to have those RP's go to waste...

/signed

Edit: Another issue to bring up is customized weapons, would those carry over?

And Seifus Halbred, how would it make it very easy for hackers?
ZOMG! My namez can changezor! Nowz I have afinity goldz!

Faure · Jan 03, 2008, 11:23 PM // 23:23

Since my necro is running around with a misspelled name I'd like this option very much

Tbh i don't think they are really NAME-binded, but more on some kind of identity of the char (since hero's can use them). If you change your name, the identity of your char won't change, neither will the customization (except that the name will change, which i think it just reads from the char-information)

Esuna · Jan 03, 2008, 11:28 PM // 23:28

I'd like this option, but it's as low of a priority to me as changing the color of my character's armor :P I agree that there should be a fee though, so that it wouldn't be abused.

Jenn · Jan 03, 2008, 11:29 PM // 23:29

I'd rather change my character's appearance than the name. Honestly, some of the tyrian characters look atrocious, and have come to look better with each campaign. I would love to be able to change the appearance instead of having to remake them. Appearances are a much bigger issue than character names, IMO.

That would be nice, but Anet should charge 50k to change a name or something.

Michiko Miko · Jan 04, 2008, 12:12 AM // 00:12

This was started on 2005, you guys think they decided already?

I do like to be able to change hair/skin tones/faces etc with whatever is available across the campaigns.

I am a very visual person and it annoys me having to make an ugly character in proph because I need her to start on presearing for instance, when the same class in NF has tons more hair styles/colors and faces much prettier!
