I was wondering, if I used my nick which I registered for the veteran program in the beta would it basically ruin what the veteran program is really about? Instead of giving me the rank up, unlock, taunt, and vet symbol in the retail game, would I instead be receiving this in the beta, which once the stats get reset, the veteran program will go bye-bye for that nick?

Any help is appreciated.

Just a question (i'm at school now, EA site is proxy blocked) does the veteran program allow characters like ' | ' and ' [ ] ' ?

I thought the veteran status wasn't applied until the official release?

Nope, I just did it with my beta nick and it worked fine.

Correct, but that has nothing to do with usernames.

From what i've seen, no it doesn't.  As long as you have a created account on BF2, that nickname will be veteran if you use the veteran program.

Well, read what he asks.  He's asking if it will affect his beta account.  And the answer is no

i don't think you'll get your rank and unlocks from the bf2 vet program until after they wipe the beta stats, but i could be wrong.  i'm just playing the beta under a different name.

In your name you can't have the [ or the * but the - and . are ok.

Hmm, maybe it was dashes were accepted, but not ) and (. Actually, now that I think of it, yeah, it was making me do "-SiN-", lol.

Your BF2142 username doesn't have to be the same as your BF2 one in order to get veteran status.
