It’s working as intended. You can name your ship when you launch it and even afterwards if you skip the first name, but, the idea is that ships develop an ‘identity’. If you steal a ship then you can’t rename it and people will know that’s their ship. I quite like it. It brings a great element to PvP and makes you think twice about things. Sounds like the issue is your buddy

It's pretty awful to be honest. The roadmap is from August with a list of bug fixes that they've bundled into "Phase 1". Those are things that should be fixed within a week or two. If you want a successful game then you have to aim to be ahead of the speed people are playing at. This game isn't that. The development cycle is ridiculously long and they have some serious issues with bringing anyone into their development team that has any idea of game optimisation. For what the game is it's damn slow and clunky. I'd invest so much money and time into this game if it had a good development crew. ARK proved that they don't have that and it hasn't improved here. Two phenomenal game ideas that just didn't get to where they needed to in order to attract the masses.
