Name Your Pirate

  • Is there any chance we could get the ability to name our pirate avatars, like how we can name our ships? Like many of you I'm sure, I have an identity picked out for my character. I'd just like to be able to make it "official" in the game itself.

    I feel like this mechanic would add a whole new layer of immersion to the RP aspects of the game. And honestly, I would rather see a hand-crafted pirate name over a player's head instead of their gamer tag.

  • I think it should exist because of streaming/content creation being such a part of a live service multiplayer game.

    Way too much drama and unkindness is sent towards random people just playing a game as an effect of streaming and recording.

    Give people some privacy/protection and they can also use it for piratical individuality and role play. Can still be linked to the tag for reporting/accountability.

  • But "You" are the pirate. The avatar isnt just a simple entity your controlling. You TheStarMan7, are the Pirate Captain of the StarMan pirates xD

    Until you see every second crew are full of Jack Sparrow's And Monkey D Luffy's.
    I would be concerned with how someone might report a cheater if the gamertag isn't specific to an account.

  • @smuntface This is to be expected considering the amount of "Black Pearl" and "Flying Dutchman" ships I come across. That said, I see far more original ship names than not. I imagine it would be the same for Pirate names.
