Change of Player Name

Post by Montoya »

Is it possible to change a player before I begin to play? Already installed, already played several farms but now want to change my Player Name. Is that possible?

Are you on PC?

You cannot make another post so soon after your last.

You can probably change it through the MP windows.
I assume people don't use Seasons, unless they say otherwise.

on pc you can change it before joining a server, its when you pick if your character is male or female. I'm presuming it's the same on console.

If you want to change the name in an already existing savegame this is only possible to do on a PC and by editing the careerSavegame.xml file

Code: Select all

 <playerName>w1der</playerName>

Console can't change name as it uses your gamertag to show you to other players
