Is there a way to change my username to the one I used on the forums?

Maybe I am blind but as far as I can tell I can't change my username. However, I always used a different one on TS forums and I'd like to use that same one here too.

Is there a way to change it or to offer us a means to pick a display name?

  • The username here follows the one on other sites and in the EA App.  You can change that on ea.com, under Account Settings > About Me.

    At this time, there's no way to separate the two IDs.  I've seen the suggestion that perhaps the forum name could be set to the nickname/gamer ID in the EA App, so if you'd like that too, feel free to post it as feedback here.

      Further to my response to Burnziie this isn't really the solution I am looking for 😕

    So it's impossible to strictly make sure my Forum-self is unrelated to what I'm known as when I game? That's a huuuuge shame

      Agreed, I don't get why we can't have a separate name here like we did on the old forums, I don't want to change my EA account name to the one from the forums ..
