It's really not about how many people use the free name change. I haven't used it, and probably won't. But I'm not a top-level player who is on a team and needs to be able to have a particular tag, etc. Maybe I'd put a clan tag there someday. But even though I would never use it, I'd benefit from paid name changes existing, because it's good for the pro scene, which I like to watch. They really shouldn't take how many people used the free one as evidence about the importance of the paid one.

I really don't care about the name change thing, but what really boggles my mind is that there is no clan support. WC3 had it, and it was pretty good. You had clan tag next to your name, ranks within the clan, and each clan had their own chat channel. It's a great way for friends and like minded people to get together and play with each other. They had it in WC3, how difficult would it be to implement a similar system in SC2?
blah blah blah...

Yeah... Clan support is what we should ask for not pay name change.

For the love of god clan support! That would actually get me playing regularly again. Something similar to WC3 or better please!

no support for paid name changes or clantag support is currently in the works.

Show nested quote +
In addition, beyond this initial free name change, we’ll be launching a service similar to the one we offer for World of Warcraft which will allow additional character name changes for a fee. We'll announce more details on how the free name change and additional paid character name changes will be implemented in the near future.


Way to go blizz. Just giving your customers lip service and giving them false hope :/

I've never been a customer of Blizzard prior to SC2, but seeing the features in their previous games makes me wonder so much about why they've gone backwards... Other than balance changes and small tweaks to game performance on hardware, it really makes me wonder what Blizzard is doing to support their seemingly biggest game at the moment (WoW is probably bigger than SC2, I don't know for sure)

Generic opinion about Blizzard's service #56173841295373. :/

I've been trying to find a clan to join that isn't long gone dead, or actually does something besides just changing your name. I havn't used my free name change for the above reason, but if i did find such a clan, I would have to be absolutely sure this clan was going to survive, be fun, and i'll actually be in the clan for some time. Once i changed my name to joedoedumclan now im stuck with this name when the leader decides its too much hassle to plan clan stuff and it dies. awesome.

It still baffles me (I said it a long time ago along with many many others) that name changes and especially an integrated clan system aren't STANDARD. Countless other games have included these features without backlash. It really makes one wonder what was going through the heads of the Blizzard team when they released SC2 with no clan support whatsoever.

I don't understand why this is so hard for them to just do. The mechanic is already there. All they have to do is start collecting money for it.

I confuse.

Exactly my sentiment OldManZerg... It seems like its implementation would benefit both the players and Blizzard. It is literally insane.

I only want one more free name change, I'm not going to pay for another, so not upset if they don't implement it...

You know I really wish Blizzard would be more transparent about these issues and actually address them.

They also need to own up to the fact that bnet 2.0 has less features then the original already.

They collect more money by making people buy a $40-$80 (depending on region!) game again. Doesn't mean it isn't ridiculous, but if everytime someone wants to change their name they buy a new game -> $$ for Blizzard! Of course then you argue that paid name change would be cheaper -> more people would buy it -> equal/greater $$ for Blizzard. Who knows man, WHO KNOWS.

I don't see why this is an issue, every other game allows for free name changes, i.e. steam games and other popular mediums. There is no reason why players should not be allowed to change their handle. And if they aren't allowed to change their handle for ladder reasons, maybe players will get repaired up? idk. Players should at least be able to add a clan tag to their name. I love my name, but it makes a lot more sense if i add my steam clan tag to it so people on the team will recognize me. I'm just gold but playing clans together with a name is fun and it brings even more of a community feel to the game.
User was warned for too many mimes.

Incase no one knows. Clan system support for BNET is begin added in HOTS. It wont be released for at least another 1/2 year. Also, Blizzard isn't going to add anything they don't want to add. LAN, profile stats, & bigger chat channels most likely will not be put in. I assume not anyways.
