Leafsrule16 5 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 Well today I joined a club of online friends to play Nhl 09 with after playing solo games and be a pro quite a bit. My be a pro is quite good, he has an overall of 91 and his name is the same as mine, after joining a club i realized that my player had my number and all my gear but the name "Jerome Dridiger" ? So i went into be a pro and clicked edit be a pro and gave him new gloves and re-entered my personal name into the thing again, i go back and it still says that my names "Jarome Dridiger". Ive tried multiple different routes, but it wont change. How can i fix this? I really want to bring a personal feel to it and it would be kinda cool if my name was in the game as all my friends names are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leafsrule16 5 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 probably some filter put in place by EA so you dont have an offensive name.I dont think so, one of my friends got to use his real bap character with his actual name. 09 is getting pretty lame lately though honestly, my xbox froze a few times it counts as a loss i guess ?

number18 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 that happened to me. i had my real name then i changed it to something stupid (but not offensive at all) and i went to play a game and it gave me some gay other name. i changed it back to my real name and it worked fine. i would suggest changing your current name to anything else, play a game see if it works then try changing back to your real name. worth a try Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

furlanitalia 1 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 Thats weird. Mine went in fine with my real name, although back in the fall it refused to load my save file. After I updated my ps3 it seemed to be fine though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fieldofdreams 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 It might not be your name, per se, but a grouping of letters within it. My last name has one of those groupings, so when I played online, I wasn't able to use my correct name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
furlanitalia 1 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 Well if you name has anything to do with "leafsrule16" then it would make sense why it wouldn't work. Machines can't lie, they need to always tell the truth :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RecLeagueHero 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2009 Could it be detecting a word within your name and refusing to allow it? I have a friend whose last name is Babcock, he often has trouble using that in e-mail addresses because the filters catch cock in the name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

furlanitalia 1 Report post Posted April 16, 2009 She's not a mistake, she's part of the make a wish foundation and her wish was to be an NHL goalie. While her stats are a little unbalanced, I think it was great of EA to do that for someone who may not grow up to see their dreams come true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ahriman 1 Report post Posted April 18, 2009 We've already told you how you can be rid of her from your season game.Ok now stop and breath for a second, and think about this: EA doing something to make a terminally ill child happy makes you angry. In case you didn't know, "terminally ill" means they are going to die. A child is going to die from no fault of their own, no fault of the parents, just pure chance. And you can't step away from your own needs far enough to stop complaining about a video game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flames#60 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2009 of course it is not her mistake and is really hard to deal with it. but if every child would have her/his own playern in the nhl, than we could open a new game. that is all i am saying. why cant she do a normal "be a pro" player?and her stats are quite off too...
