Apparently there’s some combination of actions that will make names of all creatures get stuck as Always shown regardless of the options settings for NPCs, enemies and allies.

This doesn’t affect the setting for objects, only creatures.

I can’t get it to work every time, but at least I know this involves free camera, and leaving a map while still in free camera and spectating.

Only closing the game and re-entering will fix it. Changing maps or going back into spectator mode and leaving it while inside the arena won’t.

In the April 19th update we’re forcing some options by default in spectator mode. Check the list and let me know if what you’re seeing makes sense:

A handful of options are now forced in spectator mode:
Free Camera: ON
Camera Shake: OFF
Disable Area of Effect Rings: ON
Show Ally Names: ON
Show Enemy Names: ON
Show All NPC Names: ON
Show Simple Condition Floaters: OFF

Note: necro minions, mesmer clones, and pets shouldn’t have visible nameplates.

I’m getting forced team colors as well.

Don’t know if it’s intended or a bug, but it’s highly distracting and just flat out gaudy. In my opinion here, some of these options should not be forced. Hence the term, “options”.

No.

I mean they stay stuck on after leaving spectator mode, anywhere in the game, until the game is reset.
