Will flights download via steam or Microsoft store

I really hope steam since its much more stream lined. I mean the fact that the microsoft store hides your files in some %appdata% folder is stupid. Thats just my two cents, have any of y’all had to deal with the store trying to play other games?

9 times outta 10 the flights wont be on official stores. Probably a flighting download via emails.

I could see them sending test build codes for steam, but they also might do as the person above said and just send flights via email

I’d just assume we would get emails with codes or something like that. All I can say is I’m hyped for the opportunity to test.

It will more than likely be a code to an insider beta build on steam, Steam supports that kind of stuff

Is it possible earlier flights are just general bug checking across all the various PC platform “specs”.
And then later flights get more multi-specific.

if so, I could see earlier flights being direct download from MS similar to heir Win 10 builds, and then moving to Steam as they get more functional, more multiplayer focused.

This is from the email.

> If selected, you will receive an email including all necessary instructions on how to obtain the game build and when/where/how to participate online during designated play sessions. Any time a flight is about to launch, we will post all of the information in the Halo Insider forum on halowaypoint.com.

From the Halo Insider FAQ:

> Make sure your settings are accurate and up to date! For example, you don’t have a valid email on file, we can’t contact you to notify you about a flight. In the case of PC flighting, make sure you’ve included all of the required information – a DXDIAG upload is required to help the team assess hardware configurations and since we’re flighting on Steam, a SteamID will also be required (it’s the only way to actually get you a game build).

PC flighting for MCC will all be happening via Steam. Make sure you’ve linked your SteamID if you want to be considered for PC flighting!

Can we change this since steam is being completely silent on the BLM movement? To keep in line with Microsoft’s stance on the issue it would make sense to pull MCC from steam and put it on Microsoft store only and issue new codes for those who got it on steam
