Re: any news of self selted surnames yet?
I haven't yet heard if Blizzard would install such a feature. Would be cool though imo. I have last names for a couple of my toons already.Tårnfalk wrote:One of the things that i miss with Wow is the ability to be able to have a surname that i picked for my self... yes i know flagrps does it.. but for me its not the same as seeing the name besides my charecter

Call me a pessimist but on the other servers, easily 9/10 of the people I run across on PVE servers have names that are either goofy, annoying, obscene or just splatters of keystrokes (like asdfa, dfkjkj, etc). It's very rare that you run across someone with a name that would actually be seen in a fantasy novel / movie / etc.

Well i wouldt mind it being avalible for all... eventhough i play on a rp server i think its should be an option for all. You chould choose to have one or not and choose to see others surname or only your own. I must admit that some of the best char i meet in everquest 1 was ppl with funny names.. aka Vacuum Cleaner. I had a shaman named Chasmir Sweater and a Necro named Caviar Deluxe... i dont mind silly names , and tbh u would see ppl on rp servers make funny names too

Re: any news of self selted surnames yet?
I've met plenty of cool people in wow with silly names, and had a good time grouping with them. But when it comes to surnames... yeah. I'd just as soon have the ability to block it out, same as we get to do with all the other tags.
Yourfridge Isrunning might be the coolest player in the world, but their sense of humor is not going to be what makes me want to hang out with them ifyaknowhatimsayinandithinkyoudo.

Re: any news of self selted surnames yet?
like
display surnames
¤ your surname
¤ other players surname
and the surname it self should be optional aswell i know many pl who likes the name they have without surname.. its just something that i for one would love see implemented

Re: any news of self selted surnames yet?
like Cerele Stormrage. after getting exalted with Hyjal group you get a questling where Malfuron accepts you as a clan member...
Cerele Wildheart
Cerele <insert clan name here)
similar to titles but you get to share last names with factions/races... it would have to change for each race as i doubt dwarves would like my night elf to bare their clan name

Re: any news of self selted surnames yet?
Aaaaaaaah, yes. My guildmaster tells the most wonderfully fun stories about EverQuest and EverQuest 2. One of his stories was of a player who adjusted his facial features (EverQuest 2, I'm guessing?) so that his character just had the BIGGEST frown you could get. His name was Misterultra Frownyface. Makes me giggle every time.Tårnfalk wrote:Worba wrote:Strange as this may sound, I'd support this if it was restricted to RP servers.

Re: any news of self selted surnames yet?
I like this.. but i rather choose my self This reminds me to much like the titles there is, I would rather have my own choosen surname, but sure add those into titles as wellCerele wrote:maybe... add them in with titles... like you have to do a questline with a group after hitting exalted.

Re: any news of self selted surnames yet?
Sure I'd love a name like Verduran the Rising Sun... but all I got was 'the Faydark Gatherer'...
Anyway, it was still fun to have it around, especially when my char can't even forage @
Another incident was when one of my fellow guildmate's account got hacked, the hacker dyed all of his plate armors pink and changed his surname to 'Cutebear Pinkypants', too bad he was stuck with the surname for the next few days until he could change it.
