    New way to change your Origin ID - 10/20/11

    I just saw this on reddit, posted by the BF3 community manager. Go to this site to change your origin ID, with this warning: "It just went up and we're still testing it, so be gentle!"

    Change Origin ID

    Here's the reddit thread: You Asked - We Listened: Change your Origin ID here for free with no hoops. : battlefield3

      So after trying for a while the old way and getting no where, I just did it and it worked!

      I've gone from my actual FirstnameLastname to big_twinky!
      [this is where my funky sig would go. But I don't have one.
      So all you get is this crappy text]

          Origins new "change id" system.

          Looks like Origin finally made it easy to change your Origin ID.

          Have no tried it yet.

                Does that suprise you?

                  Oh HAAAAYYYYYY! I just changed mine to CLR_S-Man. I hope that's OK

                  And, does this mean this is what your name will show up as in-game?

                    Just changed mine, don't think it's taken effect yet.

                    Why did this have to be web based again? And not part of the Origin app like Steam.

                    edit: I'm now JuneauCLR.

                            How does all this work?

                            I have 2 identities showing on the EA Account Information page. One is my "Master EA ID" and the other is "Battlefield". Am I able to use either as my in-game name or only the master one (or neither because the BF3 name is something else)?

                            Thanks

                              In BF3 you can only use the Master ID.
