Race Naming Conventions for Viera and Hrothgar

[Solenne]

I personally would appreciate a chance to get my alt set up before early access and without having to pay for a name change when I get it wrong.

Exactly. I would really like to be able to get my name changes now, since my two characters who are going to become Viera already exist in game. Having to do it during early access, with potential server instability and long queues to log in, feels like an unnecessary headache.

I would really like them before Maint, because that means I can name change without having to deal with losing access to my character until congestion blows over - because whenever you try to name change when the queue is over an arbitrary amount, the game won't let you name change, and you can't log in until you do.

To be honest I’m really surprised the forums aren’t blowing up about this yet. Is it really only a handful of us who feel some urgency about naming?

It's less urgent for me because I'm not planning on changing races, but I am feeling more and more antsy by the day, simply because it's New Lore and I want more.

Also the completely different naming conventions for the First, but I understand if they're leaving that for expansion release proper.

It's bad that no statement comes from official sources. A little "We didn't forget you. Infos will come soon" would have been nice. Less then 72 hours to satisfy our need...

No, but players blaspheme outside the forum about the inadequate release of information.

[...] 6 or 7 replies means Viera and Hrothgar naming conventions were released.

Show me a link, please.

Show me a link, please.

The thread that says Sticky: Race Naming Conventions on the top of the Lore page. If you check the number of replies to the naming conventions thread (which is currently at 5) and wait for them to show 6 or 7, you’ll know the naming conventions for Viera and Hrothgar have been added.

And I agree with most everyone here... This wait is becoming quite infuriating.

If the Au Ra and Heavensward are any indication, we might see the naming conventions drop as late as Thursday, the day before Early Access, since that's when they dropped the last time they added a race. Still, it's a bummer they're waiting so long.

It's a little under 48 hours until early access starts. The clock is ticking for them.

If they haven't forgotten entirely about this.

Ah! Thanks, Nariya!
I misunderstood Elexander. I thougt he wanted to say that 6 to 7 replies with such a content were existing.

So uh, this is getting pretty uncomfortably worrisome... <_<
