Fickle red names?

Recommended Posts

I'm new to Dustloop, so sorry if this thread's been made before.

I have awful internet (online, I'm lucky to get 2 bars against someone), and usually it behaves, but over the course of 169 matches, I've dropped connection three or four times. It hasn't been either of us quitting because either we've both been in the process of attacking or the match just froze for 30 seconds. Anyway, I'd never had a red name before my last match. It went well. By that, I mean I got handled by a great Shadow Labrys, but I had fun. No connection problems at all.

And now I have a red name. What gives? In Blazblue, I think you have to drop one-fifth of your matches to get a red name. Is it just buggy for Arena or something?

don't think it's a bug. p4a netplay system is kinda strange with rules and ranks n stuff. i guess whatever you did over that course of matches made you eligible for a red name.

it's not like people care about that kind of thing. doubt someone will refuse to play you because you have a different color name so i wouldn't worry. embrace it lls

I'm pretty sure that's a bug. You should be able to play more matches while not disconnecting to get the red name removed, but that's not always the case. I know a few people who are stuck with red names despite playing plenty of matches and only disconnecting a few times. They either just live with it or reset their win/loss deal to get rid of it.

I've only had one person refuse the match after being rednamed. I'm assuming that since I didn't get a message along the lines of "I HATE YOU YOU STUPID REDNAMED RAGEQUITTING BUTTHEAD YOU'RE ADOPTED" that either the person refused for a different reason or they only know Japanese and didn't want to send me a message in Japanese. The red name does look kinda cool, not gonna lie... I wish I knew why I had it, though.
