Legacy names, utterly disappointing with the info.

This...

A few simple lines of instruction/warning on the popup would have taken about 5 minutes and stopped all this aggro. It's proof that certain people at BW really don't know what they are doing, you don't have to work on an mmo to have foreseen the issues this was gunna cause.

Im stuck with 'Himmler'.

From what I remember..

it says all over the place.. that once you pick it, it will not change, and will be accross all servers..


Follow Directions? Actually read about the Legacy system in the codex/that screen that pops up? Its there. People REFUSE to read.

How do you do in school when you don't follow directions?

Just saying.

Pretty much this.

actually not pretty much this AT ALL

not on the box that pops up it does not.

It simply says 'create your legacy'
with a text entry box
a ?
and a create button....

Not a single piece of instruction text anywhere on that pop-up..

About legacy naming, didn't want to create a new thread, can you use spacing in your legacy name? I think that is the correct term for it, english is not my native language.

So what I mean is can you get "of the xxxxx xxxxx legacy"? If not does this work, "of the xxxxx_xxxxx legacy?
Also I take it from the threadstarters post that you would be unable to get a capital letter on the second word? so "of the Xxxxx_Xxxxx" for example wouldn't be possible.

Haven't chosen a legacy name yet. Would like to avoid any surprises incase the game will alter the text I have written instead of giving me an error message and a chance to write again.

Lease it wasn't McLovin

Actually there is a question mark near the field where you enter your legacy name with some comprehensive information about it being applied to your toons etc.

While i agree that it might be better if Bioware would somehow put more emphasis on that, the issue you are bringing is not about BW being bad developer or designer, but, honestly, about people taking games really lightly, and i mean it in a bad way. Games nowdays are soooo safe, that i actually gave mad props for Bioware when i checked lately if i can jump over the rails on the republic fleet.

in case you wonder, yes, you can.

and believe me i am happy that you do. Games should be safe, but they also should teach you something, too much safety is boring. Also common sense is a very good and lately underestimated thing.

I just refuse to pick a legacy name all together.

The whole system is so bad it's absurd.
