- Name basics: Build and Conquer identifies players through your Roblox account, so naming starts there
- Nation name: Your city or nation label is the identity other players see in alliances and territory wars
- Roblox display name: Changing your Roblox display name is the fastest way to update how you appear in-game
- Username vs display name: Usernames cost Robux to change; display names are free within limits
- Beta caution: The game is in Beta, so naming menus may move or change between updates
How Name Changing Works in Build and Conquer
Build and Conquer is a Roblox strategy game developed by The Slop Company, where players build cities, manage resources, research technology, and fight for strategic territories. Because the game runs on Roblox, your identity in Build and Conquer is tied directly to your Roblox account rather than a separate profile system. That means changing your name usually happens in one of two places: your Roblox account settings, or an in-game naming field for your city or nation if the current version exposes one.
Your Roblox display name and username are what other players see next to your actions. Any city or nation name you set inside the game appears separately on the map, in alliances, and during territory contests.
| Name Type | Where It's Set | What It Affects | Change Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roblox username | Roblox account settings | Login, permanent identity | Robux (per change) |
| Roblox display name | Roblox account settings | In-game name label | Free, cooldown applies |
| City/nation name | In-game menu (if available) | Map label, alliance tags | Free, may be limited |
Step-by-Step: Change Your Roblox Display Name
The display name is the simplest way to appear differently in Build and Conquer. Follow these steps from a browser or the Roblox mobile app.
Open Account Settings
Log in to Roblox, click the gear icon (or the three-dot menu on mobile), and select Settings to reach your account page.
Select the Info Tab
On the Account Info page, find the display name edit icon next to your current display name.
Enter a New Name
Type your new display name. It must follow Roblox community standards, avoid impersonation, and stay within the character limit.
Save and Rejoin the Game
Confirm the change, then rejoin a Build and Conquer server so the new name loads on the player list and in chat.
Roblox limits how often you can change your display name (typically once every 7 days). Pick a name you are comfortable keeping for at least a week before confirming.
Changing Your Username vs Display Name
Many players confuse the username with the display name. They are different systems with different costs and consequences, and understanding the difference saves you Robux.
Display Name (Recommended)
- Free to change on a cooldown
- Does not affect login credentials
- Updates across all Roblox games, including Build and Conquer
- Best choice for most players
Username (Permanent Identity)
- Costs Robux per change
- Changes your actual account handle
- Old friends lists and mentions still function, but the handle updates everywhere
- Only worth it if you want a long-term identity change
| Feature | Display Name | Username |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Free | Robux |
| Change limit | Cooldown period | Multiple times, each paid |
| Seen by others | Yes, primary label | Yes, account handle |
| Affects login | No | No (login can use either) |
| Risk level | Low | Higher commitment |
Naming Rules and Common Issues
Because Build and Conquer is a competitive territory game with alliances and diplomacy, names carry weight. A recognizable name helps allies identify you during strategic region contests, and an inappropriate name can get reported.
Names containing offensive language, impersonation of developers like The Slop Company staff, or spam characters can result in moderation action on your Roblox account. Choose a clean, memorable name.
| Problem | Likely Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| New name not showing in-game | Old server session | Leave and rejoin the server |
| Cannot edit display name | Cooldown still active | Wait for the timer to expire |
| Name change option missing | Outdated app version | Update the Roblox app or use a browser |
| Name flagged as inappropriate | Community standards filter | Choose a different name |
Build and Conquer is still in Beta, and The Slop Company continues to update the game. If an in-game naming menu existed in one version and moved in another, check the official Roblox game page for the latest patch information.
Before You Commit to a New Name:
- Confirm the name follows Roblox community standards
- Check that the display name cooldown has expired
- Coordinate with your alliance so allies recognize you
- Rejoin the server after saving the change
FAQ: Build and Conquer Name Changes
Q: Is there a dedicated rename feature inside Build and Conquer?
As of the current Beta, player identity in Build and Conquer runs through your Roblox account, so there is no separate paid in-game rename system confirmed. Use your Roblox display name settings, and watch official updates from The Slop Company in case a nation-naming feature is added or expanded.
Q: Does changing my display name cost Robux?
No. The Roblox display name is free to change, though it has a cooldown period between edits. Only changing your username costs Robux.
Q: Will my alliance lose track of me after a name change?
Your account stays the same internally, but players identify each other by visible names. Send a quick message in your alliance chat before changing your name so teammates in Build and Conquer territory wars recognize the new label.
Q: Why is my new name not appearing in Build and Conquer?
Name data loads when you join a server. Leave the server and rejoin, or restart the Roblox client, and the updated display name should appear on the player list and in chat.
