Hello Guys, I would like to change my FuncomID or if I change my Steam Name to get the Name of that instead. Because if I want to get undercover on some Server it would not work because they still see my FuncomID and know my Name. So I never can’t look on my server without knowing them I’m on it. Is there any way to change it, or to add an option for this? This Questions goes to the Community aswell to Funcom. Thanks for reading and have a nice day! 🙂 ---

make a second steam account, use family sharing to gain access to the game when your not using it on your main account, thus it will show a separate steam id and thus be like a different user had played the game. that said the new account will have to spend cash on steam so you could also just rebuy the core game which would be simpler and work a bit better. Either way it could be done easily enough ---

> [@necoryuu](#): > > the new account will have to spend cash on steam I don’t think that is needed. I actually have done this as well. Made a new account on Steam, used family sharing to gain access to the Conan Exiles game without having to buy it again, and then jumped on a server as a new user. Didn’t have to pay a thing. ---

Why would you need to go undercover - did you get banned or something? Sounds shady to me. ---

not used family sharing in a while, I think I may have been thinking that new account needs to spend to add to friends list. I forget I just remember that there was some feature in steam that needed you to buy stuff lol. If it wasn’t family sharing then I thank you for the correction. ---

> [@croozi](#): > > Why would you need to go undercover IMO, that’s irrelevant. What if before my steam name was my real name. What if my steam name was JohnSmithFromAppleTreeWisconsin. It’s easy enough to change my character’s name before I create the character. But the first time I did this, it caused my Funcom ID to be JohnSmithFromAppleTreeWisconsin#12345. I would like to have the opportunity to change it to something else. JSFATW#12345, for example. ---

Maybe he’s getting griefed . ---

i read what all say…i have not much to add then : "This whole system is crap, i miss seeying my history of servers on steam, i hate how you have to invite people now, all extra handlings for _special people_ worst idea funcom made on the great game just me being honest, dont hate the comment, use your brain and just give it some thought, wish we could vote this to be undone…always when something is good they have to screw it up…is what i think ---
