Some games have a little flag next to their name in the lobby, I think it should be available for all games….

but also optional

Even those games that show the flag, you can be playing with a Brazilian(like me), but you do not know, WHY? Because Brazilians create their accounts in the United States, because Brazil don’t have a PSN!

nah… I only play with people from US/Canada due to timing issues anyway

Or just whatever flag you choose. I live in the USA but I’m Italian. I would proudly display the Italian flag instead of the US flag. It should be by choice

Yeah It would be better for you to chose the flag as you said doncalzone21, I’m canadian but I’m ukraine heritage so I would show either of them. They are so many cultures in North America it would be nice to see where everyone is from!

Only if there is a choice to display none as well.

ALWAYS have a choice.

Good idea….How about making it the background of the profile instead of the color or your choice.

If they tracked our IP to display Flag. then people from area’s without Psn can’t lie about the location to get the Store so i don’t like this :c

13

BurningWound  |  December 17th, 2010 at 6:20 pm

oh also it will make the PSN id to crowded. there are already sites that add your Flag next to your Psn id on the card. just look some up on google.

D-E-L-T-A  |  December 17th, 2010 at 8:23 pm

Clustered its not at all ! And yes making the back ground as the flag would be a nice option too. But iwas talking about a small flag the size of the trophy number!

As long as you could pick any country. I still don’t get why Arabian Countries aren’t supported by most things in this sort of stuff.. i live in the U.S but my background is Arabic.

D-E-L-T-A  |  December 18th, 2010 at 6:38 pm

Yeah I wish I could edit my first comment of this idea to remove the ip thing just being able to select and flag would be the point of the hole thing!

Good idea, especially for Europe with its amount of languages.

I’m of two citizen-ships… I want to use both… what’s good?

xRedxViolence  |  December 21st, 2010 at 3:13 pm

should be able to choose flag of your choice and have an option for none at all.

Thanks for the comment and vote up !

Great idea, but at the same time it’s a little dumb. Why?

Well half of the world doesn’t have PSN, so they are forced to use fake accounts, witch doesn’t show anything…

27

D-E-L-T-A  |  December 31st, 2010 at 3:58 pm

Fake Accounts what are talking about? Really half the world were your data to back this up? You might want to do some research !

Cuffelink  |  January 1st, 2011 at 3:03 am

Not against the idea, but WHY!!!??? And what if the person wants multiple flaggs

29

MAB196811  |  January 1st, 2011 at 6:15 pm

Give us the option to select our flag and would be great.. I am English but live in the US…please give the chance to display the ST George or Union Jack flags on my ID

@ No.2 – American Citizen proudly waving another countries flag on US soil, that sounds a bit like you need to be on the DHS watch list buddy.

You may be with Al-Qaeda?

HairySnack  |  February 18th, 2011 at 5:43 am

great idea. we should celebrate our diversity.

+1.
There’s plenty of room on the PSN profile for this. In fact, I’d like the Plus icon to be moved inside the profile, on the bottom right. I’ve thought about this flag idea as well, and think it would go great right in the middle right below the trophy icon.
Players should be able to choose, though I would like to see where they’re from.
I think the player should be able to choose a flag in the account section, along with their languages.

This is a great idea, but, at the same time, pointless until all countries in the world get PSN support…
