So is the email and password automaticly the same as in bf2???

well, if you want to "reserve" your BF2 name for BF2142, you'll have to enter your BF2 name and PW as "proof", so EA knows it's really you.

But since the login method for BF2142 will be totally different from that in BF2, your BF2 accounts won't be valid for BF2142 anyway. Different games, different accounts, as far as I know.

BF2 uses essentially a Gamespy account, and Gamespy is also the entity which manages your account for BF2.

For BF2142, users will have to use an EA.com account, if I am informed correctly. Which makes sense if you keep in mind that EA already keeps track of all the games you own via your EA.com account ( via the EA downloader, for example ).

I guess EA is slowly but steadily moving towards a steam-like approach, where users can aquire game content ( including updates and patches ) via EA-owned technology aka the EA Downloader.

So the answer to your question is basically "no". When creating your account for BF2142, you can of course decide to use the same e-mail and PW for that new account, but they are not automatically the same as in BF2.

Yeah it worked, but I just asked myself what about your passwort and email...
And what b.schuss said sounds logical.

Yay, I finally get to fix my nick! See, "Janysc", my name from BF2 is actually a mispelled Polish/Eastern European name... So for BF2142 I reserved Janysch, corrected. So happy .

Someone is using my BF2 nick in the 2142 Beta but I've reserved it back for the full release, haha ! Trouble is the name I'm using in the beta for now also belongs to someone else, so sorry mate you'll get CountZer0 back in a few weeks.....

Was anybody able to reserve his BF2142 beta name for the final?

Finally, you will receive a new verbal taunt to use in Battlefield 2.

What about this?

GotMex?: $623,493,674,868,715.98 in Debt; +193|6755

Anyone know what the deal is if you're in the beta and you want to reserve your name? What I did was reserve the name "GotMex" (lame you can't use symbols) with the veteran program, and then I logged into the beta system and created a soldier with name GotMex as well.

I am just wondering what's gonna happen when the real game comes out before 2142 if we are lucky. Is the beta name gonna be deleted? Or is it gonna remember I used it and then I won't get any special veteranness?
