Subject: Official thread for nameplate unlock support

I am having issues. I found my Halo PC copy and put in the product key from the sticker on the cd case, and it said that it was invalid or the wrong format. I put them all caps with dashes and everything. Am i using the wrong format or something?

So to make it clear, after playing Marathon on this account while connected to the internet, I'll be able to unlock the nameplate? (I haven't played Marathon on this Xbox LIVE account, but I can play it.)

Make sure you double check it, I had this problem and then noticed I missed a letter.Posted by: tremordk

I've had exactly the same problem. It even appears on my XBL and Xbox.com gamertag just not on the one here. What's up with that?
How long do we have to wait before it refreshes on this site?

Marathon 2 isn't showing up on my Gamertag even though I loaded it up over 15 minutes ago, privacy settings were also disabled.

Do all the characters have to be in caps?

Done and done. For anyone who missed the subtle comment in the last update, new copies of Halo CE WILL work for this. (Thank god for that! I lost my old code)

You can pick one up on Amazon.com or Best Buy for under 20 dollars. Make SURE you do not get a used copy! These keys only work once and there is no telling whether or not the previous owner wrote the key down and is planning on using it.

When I entered mine, they were. However, I am not sure if it matters.Posted by: tremordk

My theory is that it is just lag. Go play another game for a bit and then refresh that page. The recently played games list holds 5 games, so you should be able to play 4 other games and it would still appear.Posted by: Simple Wanderer

Correct.

Once it shows up in your recent Games list, your good to go.


Thanks. :)

Ok I'll try that

So people can get most of these emblems except for the Halo 2 and Assault Rifle Emblem because it's to late?

That is correct. Also, we don't know what the VIP icon is for, so that may also be something that people can no longer unlock.Posted by: SONICBOOM00

Yes, that Assault rifle emblem is for people who played the Halo: Reach beta a few months ago. There's more info in this BWU (scroll down until you see the visual flair section).Posted by: ligit46

Unlocked them both. Cool Beans!

somewhere in the heavens...they are waiting. I love the Marathon Trilogy.
Halo CE will always be the best game in the Halo franchise. What a perfect game.
(Proud LONGTIME owner of the PC and Xbox versions of Halo CE)

I'm about to get both nameplates for Halo PC and Marathon 2, but I was wondering, if I were to change my gamertag in the future would I still have my flairs?

Gotcha. Thanks. Ive been avoiding BWU's for the past two months because Im in the dark on Reach right now, so a lot of this is new info for me.
