Why did they remove names from audio?

Man I really hope "Martin" is still in there!!!!! I kid, I kid

This is one reason I'm thankful that there's a separate entry for entering your name, and then another for the audio file to use for Matt Vasgersian to say it, much like with EA's NHL series.

For instance, my surname IS in the game, but it's spelled differently--two different ways, in fact, neither of which are mine. So I used one of the homophones, typed in my name as spelled on my ID cards, and I'm good to go.

The only problem (which is very minor) is that, when the game's closed-captioning is turned on, it spells the name by the audio file chosen--so if you wanted to create political satirist Stephen Colbert for whatever reason, you'd have to use the audio file for "Colbear," because not only would using the one with his spelling get it pronounced "cohl-burt," but if you use the RIGHT pronunciation, it would show up in the captions as "Colbear" instead of how you typed it.

(What a run-on sentence.)

Weird...Jonathan Schoop with the Orioles is a SCEA created player. I didn't put any audio names in for him (as there isn't a Schoop available), but Matty and the PA announcer say "Schoop" when he comes to bat...how is that??? I guess SCEA embedded is audio to a created player though there is no audio name associated with him. Very weird....

Sorry to pester, Knight, but could you tell me if:

A) Woodhouse is in, and

B) if it isn't, do you know if SCEA will have a name request thread on here again soon?

I was relived that mine stayed in the game. Good times.

We also need to get the option to get full names in the game.


I usually go by my first and middle name a la Sean Tyler, as opposed to Sean or Tyler kind of like John Ryan Murphy for the Yankees.


Just another cool thing they might could add in the future with the ps4.

ditto this for Raimo (Ray-mo)

So to clarify, all the names that have been in the game previously are still in?

So names were removed?
