Flights-When will they Happen?

When do you believe flighting for Halo Infinite begins? How open to the public will the beta be to the public? In other words how many people do you all anticipate actually testing the game out when flighting begins?

When? This Summer (Sometime between now and September 22nd.)
How open? Open to everyone who signed up to Insider program and gets invited.
How many people? At least one.

How many times are we going to see this kind of post?

As many times people are curious and anxious about Halo Infinite getting good to great first impressions from the community and ultimately wanting a successful launch. Then again honest questions get honest answers so I don’t blame you.

Just so we are all clear no one honestly believes that flighting will campaign related? Flighting will only be multiplayer related?

Probably a big no on campaign flighting, because spoilers.

What needs to happen is that the campaign demo that was shown off last year is playable and available to the community when flighting begins. That was we get use to the controls are able to provide the appropriate feedback (good and bad) to 343.

Yeah, unfortunately what we saw at E3 2021 is probably the last of the campaign portion of Halo Infinite before the game actually launches. Still though I am not going to pretend like the lack of an official release date is not concerning. However, at the same time I do understand why 343 and Microsoft for that matter cannot commit yet. Still though I am really excited for the community to get to test the game out on the multiplayer side once flighting begins. My guess would be late July or early August.

My guess is tomorrow, open to me, and 7 others

343 is going to make a big announcement for the Halo Infinite flights. 343’s strong commitment to MCC with now the release of season seven tells me they are going to show the same level of commitment with Halo Infinite’s flighting and the eventual battlepass seasons.

A very very smart idea for 343 and announcing their flights for Halo Infinite would be to announce the release date for Halo Infinite shortly after the flights for Halo Infinite open. Regardless of the feedback (good and bad) 343 gets for Halo Infinite from the flights they need to plan to release Halo Infinite on a specific date THIS year. Punting the release of the game would not benefit 343 at all IMO, and squander the good will they established with the fans at the E3 showcase.

Flights? Skyscanner is pretty good, check there…

It’s called a beta.

Speculation about when the flights will take place can be done in an existing thread, such as: https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/243780d3b80b4bb6ac7917a8942286db/topics/the-halo-infinite-flight-is-near/eea60601-b09f-4b79-afb2-37b2f8ee6543/posts
