As humanity fights for survival in the year 2142, your army needs you more than ever. Your past Battlefield 2 experience makes you an invaluable asset for the war of the future.

As a Battlefield 2 player you have qualified for Veteran status in Battlefield 2142. This entitles you to reserve your Battlefield 2 soldier name before Battlefield 2142 hits the shelves, making that name unavailable for anyone else to take. You can claim only one soldier name for Battlefield 2142, no matter how many soldier names you have tied to your

As a reminder of your heroic efforts in Battlefield 2, we are pleased to announce that you will also be awarded an exclusive Veteran indicator next to your name in Battlefield 2142, so other players will recognize that you’ve had a tour of duty in Battlefield 2. You will also receive an immediate promotion in Battlefield 2142, which will let you choose an unlock. Finally, you will receive a new verbal taunt to use in Battlefield 2.

Enter your Battlefield 2 soldier name and password and reserve it for 2142. You must have an existing EA account to complete this.

Make sure to claim your soldier name as soon as possible! All unclaimed names will be made available to anyone as soon as Battlefield 2142 launches. Please note that the immediate promotion is compatible with any retail program that grants you an immediate promotion, and you will be promoted twice. However, claiming your Veteran status after you have already ranked up through normal gameplay will have no effect on your rankin

Ea have the worst systems.

I think there account systems takes users from all over the place eg nfs, generals etc.

I got told the ea username did not exsit, so went to create it only to be told it exsisted so i couldnt.

Then got blocked on 3 accounts trying passwords.

Not happy :cussing:


Soultion: Sign up a new account with a completly new email. I seem to remember this problem before, its says bad username but its based on email.



Anyway i got the name HyperBlade so im stoked ;)

Response (GM Spada) 08/24/2006 01:40 PM
Hello,
Thank you for contacting In Game Support.

If you are not able to reserve a nickname or are getting errors such as 'The screen name you have entered already exists in our database' and/or 'Please correct the error and try again', there are a number of steps you can take to improve your chances of reserving a nickname.

Make sure your nickname does not exceed 14 characters as this is the limit for the length of nicknames in Battlefield 2142. Do not include your clan tag in your reserved name (you can add this to your nickname once you are in the game) as this may push your nickname over the character limit.
If the web site is receiving high traffic, you may want to try again at a later time to ensure your request goes through.
If you have tried your nickname at different times without success, your nickname may have already been reserved by another character. You can reserve a different nickname and you will still receive your Veteran Status even if you nickname does not match your Battlefield 2 nickname.

Unfortunately, Support staff can not alter or modify Battlefield 2142 soldier names, so please make sure that the name you reserve is the name you wish to use.
Please, let us know if you have any more questions or troubles.

Answers to most questions may be found at http://support.ea.com/.

Sincerely,
Battlefield Support Team
Electronic Arts
