The Symbols on the Armours are meant to help you identify which of your friends is Billy once he calls out for help on the communicator.
Billy: "Help, I'm pinned down by a sniper!"
John: "Where are you?" *looks areound seeing six golden arrows pointing at his companions
Billy: "I'm the bio-hazard symbol."
John: *looks at each golden arrow for a second as each displays the person's symbol. Finally sees the familiar concentric rings of a bio-hazard.* Gotcha Billy. Flaming Ninja is at your four o'clock. Ninja, let's help out Billy."
Flaming Ninja: *who'd just finished mopping up his enemy* Sheild's regenerating. I'll be right with you.
Try doing that with those green arrows from Halo1 or if you all had the same symbols.
I'm pretty sure the clan symbol would be displayed on the Match's start page and rankings page in addition to the flag and possibly upon the base.
