Since I've heard a few things about bungie not making a third installment, I will say it'd be very cool in a bitter-sweet sort of way to have MC die in order to save the universe. Even better if we never get to see what he looks like
I'll be fine if he dies, as long as he dies killing all the covies. I mean, after the covies are over, i can't really imagine the Master Chief retired on a beach sipping a Pina Colada.
Besides, in one of Bungie's interviews, Joe Staten mentions the fact that Halo's story is one of salvation. He also characterizes Halo's story as one of "warriors with not a lot of options who have their backs up against the wall and, ultimately, are trying to set themselves free". This freedom, for the MC, may actually be death. It was stated in First Strike that he valued human life so much that he wouldn't be able to kill another human willingly. This being said, once the covenant are eliminated, I doubt he would be able to carry out other missions against Humanity.
Overall, I expect the Master Chief's death to be Heroic, if not Legendary. If he doesn't die however, I won't be sad, as long as they give a bit of closure on what happens to him.
