Remove Continent Names?

March 27th, 2011 16:13 GMT in Changes

I'm wondering what people think about not having a continent name...

For instance, instead of neonDragon of Optimism Isle, I'd just be known as neonDragon.

I think it's confusing for people when signing up to have to put in two names, and I'm not sure if it's really worthwhile.

Maybe make it optional?

I don't think having the continent name adds anything, but removing it doesn't help either. Maybe just don't add it to evo 7. Why remove it and risk an unintended side effect?

I agree with fel here, make it optional.

I think making it optional is the best idea.

I'll go against the grain here and say keep it. I've always loved some of the combinations people come up with.

I'm for keeping it.  i think it makes for some fun names, and encourages more creativity.>

I think continent names should stay, every game out there (any rival one) allows players to name their continents (or whatever a base may be known as). I think continent names should be changeable at any time but usernames should stay fixed. Could the signup and continent creation be seperated so someone can signup to use the forums and not necessarily signup to play the game, it may help boost the numbers slightly. I know you've now got IRC login tied in with the geneone login, can you do the same with the wiki Neon, as you may or may not have noticed some arsehole is spamming the wiki.

I am against changing anything in the live version of the game (unless it is clearly broken). No one who programs for a living screws with something just to screw with it on the production box.

Continent names are definitely a good thing. Would be sad to see them go, the game concept revolves around owning a continent and see it flourish.

Nah, I like the names. But it would be nice to be able to change the continent name if you want, in case you decide you don't like it.
