Hey guys,

Ok, i got the game today (released today in the UK) and as soon as i got home i wanted to install and play immediately!

So, i installed the game and patched it....then started the game.

I had reserved my username and my GFs username a couple of months ago, so i was excited to use them. I entered my username and password, then typed my soldier name in, but the game says that the name is unavailable!!! i tried my GFs username and it says that that one is unavailable too!!!

My GF then remembered that she may have changed the username to something different, so, we changed the username and password to see if our soldiers were on there.

CD KEY INVALID! ALREADY IN USE ON ANOTHER ACCOUNT!!!

WTF?!

GREAT!

Now 2142 has already registered with a username with no reserved slots on it!

Anything i can do???

Thanks

Call EA tech support to see if they can "unlink" your cdkey.

Also to claim your reserved name all you have to do is log in using your EA member name and the name you reserved will be waiting for you in the soldier list.

Contact EA support. I did and the guy said he may be able to manually have it added to my account.

Thanks guys...

My EA username is makatom05....thats the one that i signed in with on 2142.

But my reserved names are under makatom06 (my girlfriend set up the reserved names)

So, now my CD Key is bound to makatom05 but my reserved names are on makatom06.

I have e-mailed and phoned EA tech support and they say they might be able to do something within the next couple of days...

So its a waiting game i guess...

Does it reserve your BF2 username or the name used for registering on the EA downloader, etc?

yeah if you have the veteran status then you can reserve your BF2 username so only you can use it....

So now my username is locked and i can't get to it til EA pull their fingers outta their asses....

I aint blaming them though because my GF shoulda put it under my account name and i should have reminded her i had it...

So its our fault

If you can't figure out how to work the vet program you deserve to have no vet soldier.  A little harsh but true.
