Team Fortress 2 Multiplayer Name Change
It really hacks me off when we were playing Team Fortress 2 in AREA51 that you have to use your Steam Community name in the game.
Like our gaming cafe of choice AREA51, many places run the Steam Cafe License Program (paying through the nose for the annual subscription it mind you - it aint cheap!!) which doesnt allow the locking of accounts to a Steam Community Profile.
I tried going to Console and typing name A51-Topper but that didnt work. Hat tip to Sam Kidd for figuring it out.
All you need to do is :
- Open the console
- Type : setinfo name A51-Topper
Cant wait for Tuesday now that we'll know who we're killing! We'll keep seeing "A51-Topper headshot A51-Sarge (aka A51-Chuck).
BTW, if you dont already know, Tuesday is the weekly gaming LAN night at AREA51, kicking off at 7pm and lasting till late. FREE cinema passes to be given away and everybody is welcome.
We play Day Of Defeat : Source, Team Fortress 2 and Counter-Strike. We've also been known to scrap it out in Age of Empires 2 (The Daddy RTS) and Battlefield 2!
Hat Tip: Chuck.
