Subject: Nameplates and migration to 343

Justice is like a box of chocolates . . . .

I've been searching the forums for an answer: What will become of the Bungie Nameplates that we use in our Halo games (after the complete transition of support)? How will we access, and change them at will in the future?
They are cherished by some of us as an important tradition in the Halo gaming experience--as unique as the armours we earn and wear. They provide great psychological advantages in multiplayer and custom matches, too! It would be a loss for some of us if they were no longer available. (Quite frankly, I think any UNSC JAG lawyer would agree that 343 Industries is legally obligated to continue their support!)
Please advise.

They do?

I think they'll stay here. I hope so at least.

I'm watching you.

After the transition, your nameplate will be locked to whatever you set it to last. 343 has already stated that they have no intention of adding support for it on their end.

Keep telling us more reasons why Halo Titles will fall?

It really depends on if you changed it at all. I quite enjoyed having my Halo PC nameplate since a couple of days after the release of Reach. I think I only changed it to see how it looked a couple of times.

Guess I'll keep my Bungie nameplate for all eternity then. Suits me just fine.

What will happen to Bungie Pro nameplates?

lolwut

Anyway, the nameplates are just going to be locked at what we have them set to. I think so, I might be wrong but I don't know.

Just like the rest of the nameplates, you won't be able to use it after the stat transition is complete. When the stats freeze on Bnet, you will still be able to see your last chosen nameplate though; I however don't know if it will still show up in Halo Reach.

@Phoenix1710:
Where and when did 343 state that intention (or lack thereof)?
I would like to feedback to them some suggestions on how to keep certain abilities active. I have indirect connections to 343 and MS that may help me to make a point: any loss of function in the games is a step in the wrong direction, especially any loss of player-generated functions. If I have that specific statement from them, it will provide a starting point and a direction for the feedback.
Please direct me to it.
