So how about they allow players to put whatever they want in their character names but they make you have an @name#1234 in-game (that is strictly english only and that you get to pick) that is unique to your account and if anyone wants to refer to anyone else or whisper them, they can do it by using that tag. That way even if they have characters in their name that you cannot even type with your keyboard setup, you can still interact with every player.
And they can do it like Discord and let you change your numbers only if you have Premium active or something
Also, this will allow new players to actually have a choice in nicknames because with the current taken inactive nicknames it's extremely irritating to try and find a name you might consider wanting and you just can't get because it's taken by someone who played the game once and left forever, locking an amazing nickname to never be used again and completely forgot about APB's existence. Which is why I also think we need a solid nickname wipe, BADLY, because new players will want their nice nicknames and not use numbers to replace letters or put random trashy nicknames for the sake of being able to play APB at all...
My older suggestion was to simply namewipe every character/account that was NOT merged after the Obeya/Patriot -> Citadel and Joker/Colby -> Jericho merges. If you have not launched the game once since 2015 then you clearly do not care enough about your nickname. They can send out warning e-mails 30 days prior as well if they feel the need to. If anyone genuinely cares, they will make sure to launch the game just once to keep their nickname.
Most people might not think it's a big deal but it actually is pretty relevant to how appealing the game would be to decently sized portion of new players that will come in from games where they could have their nicknames.
Just a thought.
Even though I always wanted to get my hands on the clean Void in-game name, it's not fair at all to just wipe names, even if you give warnings beforehand. Server merges aside, I don't believe the company should ever go as far as modifying user data.
Unique identifiers like Discord's are mostly implemented for very large user bases and, besides that, the games has monetized on name changing since forever and some people had spent really serious money on that.

The current solutions you have implemented have either made the icon the same for the faction (as was in open conflict) , or have removed it entirely (ps4 and xbox one builds)
I think it would be a good idea to combine the idea of Open Conflict icon colors with the current ranks so they would now be red or blue instead of the current bronze, silver or gold.
(very quick mockup)
A good idea but then we'd have too many colors.
Red names might be paired, for instance, with blue rank icons from enforcers.

Launcher issues 17/12/2019
in Resolved Bugs

Same here. The launcher doesn't seem to be working on first launch, after installation. It's stuck on downloading some files with no progression then errors out because of request timeouts probably.
