> Also adding I’m unable to switch weapon with Y on XSX.

Check the in game controller settings. My “Y” button got unbound for some reason for weapon swap and I had to re-bind it.

Training mode seems to be hogging my cpu and dropping frames, cant be the bots I scaled it down and had settings on low and still 100% usage. Despite this the game is amazing. Audio for gun sounds and shield recharge are crisp as are the visuals.

Since the waypoint beta isnt up ill put my comments here for now.

•Training mode doesnt have the new map “behemoth” like it was shown on the live stream. Idk if it was supposed to or not.

•Cannot switch weapons in training mode

•This build doesnt feel like the first flight very much at all

Having that problem too, nor my grenades

Anyone else not able to access https://beta.halowaypoint.com/halo-insider/flights?

I keep getting Service Unavailable or Server Error. I have the private key email but unable to access waypoint beta or see anything in Previews for Xbox Insiders app.

anyone else having this issue?

The new grenade change user interface widget is significantly more difficult to use in the heat of combat than systems in prior Halo titles. Needing to press a button to bring up a grenade UI then press a second button to select a grenade takes longer to perform in the middle of a fight than a toggle does. Furthermore, you cannot shoot while the grenade menu is up with default controller bindings. This will be an issue for competitive play, but it’s also just unnecessary. Only two grenades can be held at a time in Infinite MP, so there is no need for anything more than a simple toggle. This new system is more complicated and takes more time to navigate than the old one and offers no advantages in multiplayer combat so long as players can only hold two grenade types at once.

I figured it out bois

Playing in training mode on Xbox one x. When in the training mode area the Y button doesn’t work. Can’t switch weapons. :rage:

I recommend checking your controller bindings. Y was not bound to swap weapons for me by default.

I had a question, the game is running about 30 FPS for me, I’m on the Xbox one S console, is this a normal frame rate to have? Or is it gonna be fixed and optimized for the final release.

First time playing Halo Infinite, I noticed that you can do Melee reload Melee, making where you can Melee really fast, it’s very OP, and feel like it will probably need fixed

Got the Halo Infinite - Multiplayer Technical Preview Invite email but when I click on the ‘Head to Halo Waypoint’ I get a ‘Services aren’t available’ error and there is no message in my Waypoint inbox. Anyone else have this issue?

I have a question 343, why go through all this trouble sending out countless invites 2 times when I imagine theres probably the option to just automatically allow access to the flight through the insider app to eveyone who has already been invited to participate once the flight is up and running. I say this because the 2 step process seems unnecessary and has been very frustrating waiting for myself and from what I have seen on various other platforms as well for others wishing to participate in the flight. I’d be participating currently if this second step wasn’t in place. Now I’m to going to bed frustrated after waiting 12 hours, all I wanted was to hopefully play just a few minutes.

> FR is really bad. Choppy and doesn’t ever seem to hit anything nearing stable. This is with settings on low, resolution scale set as low as it goes and default FOV
> i9 8800k, 32gb ram and a 2080rtx

Same here. 2080RTX , i9-9900K with 32GB of memory.

Way worse performance than the last build. Playing on lowest settings and have to use minimal fps setting at 140 fps.

If it launches like this it will be not be well received from the PC community. Honestly, I have played alpha tests with better performance than this flight. Terrible stutters and mouse input feels terrible (way worse than last build).

Overall the core game play is fun but I am worried that this plays so bad on a pretty decent build. There is also no difference in performance on low vs high.

Hello all. The weapon drills feel great, although I believe the ravager 1 weapon drills high score is not set proper, as it says I need 140,000 score to unlock star 2. I could be wrong, but it certainly doesn’t seem possible to me.

i have the same issue. I am playing on xbox FYI. I rebooted my xbox and the halo infinite insider app finally allowed me access before the website officially recognized I had an email sent to me notifying me I have been invited to play in the technical preview. As long as you have the infinite insider downloaded you maybe ok to play. Hope this helps

Where is the BTB map? It’s just the same 4v4 maps as the first flight.

Xbox One
Training Mode =

Bots and gameplay bugs:

    1. When starting the game the enemy bots don’t spawn for about a minute and it’s just me and my teammate bots on the map running around aimlessly. - 2) There are no multikill medals showing up at all? Or maybe the time that you have to get a multikill is a super small window? Last flight I saw gameplay of people getting multikills all the time and it looked like the normal 4 seconds between kills allows the street to continue. But now it seems like it’s either not working at all (Rocket that kills 2 people in one shot doesn’t say double) or it’s just buggy and random, or maybe just not even showing.
      Training Options bugs:
    1. In the Training Options I can select a plethora of things I want to spawn with and I love that, however whatever I change in that moment, even every option, just reverts itself back to how it was or chooses something else for me while in that menu if I scroll up or down. However, if I select what I want (even tho it reverts itself to default or another option), and then I back out of the menu and then go right back into the settings then the settings are as I chose them. Just an overlay/visual glitch in that menu. - 2) Now an actual in game bug is that if I choose my loadout at the very beginning of the game then I have those items I choose when I spawn like I’m supposed to. Now if I were to be mid game with different weapons and nades and powerup that I picked up from the battlefield and then just view Training Options, without even changing anything, then my loadout changes to whatever I currently have on me at that time upon next respawn when I die OR something random as I occasionally spawn with an AR and pistol even tho that was never selected nor equipped at any time of the gameplay. So like, every time you view Training Options it saves all settings to what you currently have on you at that specific time or defaults it to something preset in the game and that doesn’t make sense.
      Bots and gameplay suggestions:
    1. Are the bots supposed to load with whatever Training Options you select? They seem to be continuously spawning with AR and Pistol and picking up the very first weapon they find on the map, whatever it may be. - 2) I wish there to be regular Custom Game options like in previous games where you choose kill limits, time limits, game mode type, loadouts that everyone spawns with and the option to disable, enable different kinds (Human, Forerunner, Covenant, Snipers, Rockets, Rifles), or randomize weapons that appear on map. Maybe just not available in the Flight and that’s ok, but this one mode of just continuous onslaught is quite weird. - 3) In game stats? Generally you press the settings button/menu button (not the start button, the other one) and it shows in game kills, deaths, assists. Will Training Mode offer that?

Grenade selection is still bad. No way I can manage this during gunfights. We need to go back to original toggle, and something like press + hold to swap current grenade. All one button, no fiddling around

I’m playing on the xbox series x and while going through the different weapons at the range, the bots seem to be a bit glitchy. I’m getting proper hit markers from the weapons but the bots seem to be phasing in and out as they run across the arena. Anyone else notice this?
