yeah, in Rome: total war, characters in the game get nicknames depending on their actions,reputation and personality-how they play the game, for example repeatedly assasinations,launching wars and financial problems cause the apropiate nick names.
i'm thinking that in the single player ladder for ut2007 it would be interesting a similar system would be fun. for example nicknames get given for excessive headshots,roadkills,suicides,melee,falling of edges,knocking others of edges,backstabbing and camping .......Vlad the Impaler,Malcolm the terrible, cant think of any good nicknames right now but i'll be get some soon........................ and so on, also award badges of honor Quake 3 style on the characters profile for thier different feats during gameplay....................i think that would add to the single player experience a bit of depth
