MidnightDragon Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Unless you've been under a rock, you would know Sony announced that PSN ID name changes will begin beta testing soon with full rollout in early 2019. My question is this: will you change it? I probably won't. Like my PSN ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightwards666 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) No I won't. I did change my ID once, a few years ago, by creating a new account... I had Level 13 and just over 1k trophies. I didn't want to sacrifice them, but I didn't like my ID at all. I regained the vast majority of them, but some became unobtainable. If I'd have had the choice to keep them, I would have. I don't think I can change my name anyway, I only have a PS3.

Lagoon Aris Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Nope. I used the ID I have for basically everything where I have to create accounts. I love and live that name, so I have no need of changing it. But it's nice for people to finally have that chance though I will never have the need of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasonreaper Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Nope, happy with mine. Have been for the last decade or whenever the hell it was I made it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakebit10 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 No. I made this account with this name when I got my PS3 in 2010. I still like it so therefore I will keep it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesopithecus Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Nope, I'm really happy with my name and wouldn't want to change it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowxSakura Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) No, been using this name for 18 years on various platforms Edited October 10, 2018 by SnowxSakura 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baka_Marimo Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) Yes, I'm definitely gonna change it because my ID carries a community tag from a Gran Turismo community I used to race with way back in 2009. I stuck with it when I started trophyhunting but I've been wanting to get rid of the tag for a few years now.

Undead Wolf Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I'm not sure yet. If I do, it's not going to be completely different, but some variant of Undead Wolf. I like my name, but I'm not really a fan of all the underscores and the "N7" part. It depends on what is available really, but I remember when I created my PSN ID, a lot of my previous attempts at writing the name were already taken, so I had to settle for what I did. I hope Sony end up freeing up a ton of PSN ID's that have been long dormant. That would help a lot. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valyrious Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Don't need to. I'm hopeful that with this, we'll see a hell of a lot more unique names. As usual, I'll probably end up disappointed though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatMuttGuy Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Hell no. I love this account name and even if I didn't, I wouldn't risk being able to play my old games just for a new name. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ToTheEmber Posted October 10, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2018 Don't need to now that I created this account that I currently use. Wish the name changes came a lot sooner though. I lost a lot of good trophies from the old account, big leagues from black ops 2 (now unobtainable) in particular ? 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRare123 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Just made this account and it will stay as it is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance_87 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) I'll change it if they guarantee 100% compatibility with old-gen content, both offline and multiplayer. Which is unlikely anyway, so screw it lol. Edited October 10, 2018 by Lance_87 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daftprophet Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Nope. Especially since we don't know yet what might be affected by it, but I wouldn't change it even if nothing happened. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairyCal Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Well, i want to change it, but it's because the one I wanted to use was used by someone with 0 trophies... Now it's free and even if it will be not, I would use different one instead of one I have right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Yes, I’m definitely going to change my ID. I hate it. Having the ability to change it here was my main reason for upgrading to premium and I feel much more comfortable like this. However, like I already said in the other thread, I want to be sure that I’ll still be able to play my favorite multiplayer games on PS3 and Vita, like Uncharted 3, NFS: MW or Killzone Mercenary. My love for multiplayer is stronger than everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuukiyun Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I'll see if I can work something about with the person who has the ID I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the way it was worded, you'll still have your old ID, the new one will become the primary one everyone sees whereas your original one will be the sub ID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matigrosso91 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I don't know. Probably don't, i'm used to it, but includes my real name AND surname and it seems a little risky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorajet Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 What will be interesting is that there are SO MANY great names out there already. Can you imagine trying to come up with a name that isn't already used? I mean, all the game character names have been used. Maybe a lot more hyphens or XX names will show up?
