Any other TR bummed about the apparent slogan change? - Page 3

To me, it does not matter either way as both are good slogans.

However, I would think that "Loyalty until death" would not be changed, as the TR seem to be big on tradition.

Lets just make "Loyalty beyond death" the unofficial slogan.

I'm TR, don't like either one. I don't think your slogan should advertise or even address your dying.

^^ might as well face facts though...I mean, ya'll be dying all the time, so..

Loyal to the end.

Feel free to define "end" however you wish.

How about:

Loyalty until the job's done!

Or

You keep killin', we keep comin'!

Or

Dispensing victory, one tube at a time!

No. Let's not.

I always thought Loyalty Until Death was more a slogan for the Player rather than the admittedly cookie cutter avatar on the screen. Makes perfect sense in that context.

You could just as well read "Loyalty Until Death" as when Death actually occurs, the person ceases to exist. With nanite-respawning, the conventional meaning of death does not mean the same thing it once did.

"Loyalty Until Death" means loyalty until it is impossible and irrelevant. Nothing save an ultimate end can stop the loyalty to the cause. Only be utter termination will the person cease or surrender his or her loyalties. Redefine death in an appropriate context and I think it stops mattering. Beyond death, Until death- with respawning, they mean the exact same thing.
