Lost old cd's so purchased it off of Steam Install seemed fine. Went to create On-line profile and it would not accept SgtWacky. Same profile I've been using for all my games. Also..... likely related..... it will not allow me to connect on-line. Game indicates it is version 17.1263. If memory recalls....this may be an issue. Any help would be appreciated....thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

You can add an underscore or a number, like Jointz did. Labob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Yes true you installed different game key so you have to edit your name (the first profile name is still in the cod5 system) like Athenas said add a different caracter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
