Creating a second solider

**Damonte** · 07-17-2007, 11:06 PM

I attempted to create a second soldier in my BF2142 account tonight. I found a name that I liked that was not already taken. However, when I tried to create it, I received an "Unhandled Error 164". What exactly might that mean?

After doing some digging, I have an answer for you. It means that the soldier attached to the name you want has recently been deleted, but EA hasnt yet deleted the profile from the master server. Basically, the name is free for grabs, but you cant use it until EA gets on the ball and cleans out their files. I've seen people saying that this gets resolved anywhere from a day to 3-4 weeks (i guess some people are just that desperate for the right name).

You're better off just going with a different name D.
