In Halo 2 multiplayer on Live, will our names be restricted to what our gamertag is, or will it be whatever we name our character?

Just curious, I don't have Live yet, my internet might be too slow...

I would like to not be restricted to the gamertag, it would be nice to be able to change your character once in a while...

My guess is it will be your tag, cause on many a game it loads my profile then makes me sign in and it plays as the tag name not profile name

I hope it does what PSO does and let you play as any character you want with your own name, seperate from your Gamertag.

You'll probably have to user your gamertag.

It is more organised to use gamertags, Or else you could basicly piss EVERYone off by hopping in and out of servers and randomly cursing and yelling and just switch names and voice masks. Soooo, GamerTag. To make people act mature.

yes but you can still see what their gamertag is regardless of their nickname.

It doesn't matter to me, because my profile name is the same as my gamertag (could you quess?), But I hope guests, if they have them, will be able to have there own name, and they would put your gamertag next to your profile name in the stat sheets. so people wont spam.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with voicemasks, I get what they are by the obvious name, but what are the specifics?

I think it would be nice to make your own names and whatnot like in Unreal Championship, but like if u hit the scoreboard or whatever in game u can see ur gamertag right under or next to ur name
