Help the newbie.
I've started playing COD4 but I can't put |TG-8th| in my name or do any space. Is it possible to know how did it yourself?

Re: Help the newbie.
There is a 14 charachter limit in CoD4... so most likely you will have to shorten your name to something like |TG-8th| Shini, which is exactly 14 characters.... or just leave the TG tag off.

You also have to be a certain rank to put the '|' character in your name.

Re: Help the newbie.
I just started playing Cod 4 too, and forgot to put TG in front of my name. I also can't find leaderboards for this game.

Re: Help the newbie.
open up your console (shift+~) and type /name (your name here) and press enter.

There are no leaderboards for PC. All stats are kept on your (client) side. Originally Posted by Rob

Re: Help the newbie.
Also, if the console command doesn't quite get it right, get connected to a server, pick a team and then:
Hit Esc, go to Multiplayer Options, and in there somewhere you can change it.

Re: Help the newbie.
you can do that before you join a server as well I believe... go to options, multiplayer options, then change your display name in there.
