I was just wondering if the invites were slowly being pushed out to everyone in the Insider Program or if the invites now were the only invites.
If 343 is reading this I would very much appreciate an invite since you guys invited me to the Xbox flight a few weeks back even though I never signed up for the Xbox flight because I don’t own an Xbox One. It’s ok if the invites now are the only ones but I just wanted to let you guys know of the error.

Welp, guess I can just sit in the knowledge that I’ll never get in. RIP the nameplate.

Steam is what I’m hoping for anyways.
I signed up from when they first announced this and I have never received an invite, for both PC and Xbox. My friend whom only signed up last month because I told him about it, sends me a text trolling me that he got in. Thanks a lot, I guess that’s what I get for trying to “help” the cause. My friend gets in but not me. Thanks… Seems super fair. -Yoink- me I guess.

Haha thats a bummer; same thing happend to me. I’m starting to accept that my chance won’t come for the flighting but i sure hope it doesn’t take long for release once the flighting is over for reach.
I hope not, I hope this flight is enough for the full Steam release.
Wow, another game company secretly completing all of its testing internally and then releasing a “Beta/Devbranch” that really is just a way for Youtubers to drum up hype rather than a way to actually test features and stability.
Imagine my shock.

Agreed. I feel like the game will be fully released by next month.

Yeah, so this isn’t happening. Currently there are much less than 1 out of every 100 users in an active flight that are content creators / MVP’s who have been invited by 343

Same bro. A friend of mine got the invite for PC and I’m just sitting here with the old Xbox invite like “bruh why?”

Let’s hope so, I can see them aiming for before the end of the year release for Xmas and holidays.

Its unfair how most Halo Youtubers get into more than 1 flight but the majority of insiders don’t get into a single flight. GeneralKidd, for example, got into both the Steam version flight and the Windows Store version flight.

Likely because they have a history of good participation and feedback. As I said above though, the number of content creators being invited is ridiculously small comparedto the amout of normal Insiders

Sure, Sure, not like HiddenXperia, Vengeful ‘Vadam, Greenskull, and GLP - among many others - have been pouring out hundreds of hours of video promoting gameplay that old-timey vets have already had thousands of matches of in games that we already had access to over half a decade ago. But yeah, gotta filter out all those “bugs” before the next generation of kids who were too young to play the games when they first came out start racking up debt on their parents’ credit cards for a “new” game y’all didn’t even make in the first place. Nice try, but the marketing tactics dont work on veteran gamers anymore. We see right through all of it, and good luck getting us old fans back to the series after 4, 5, and this whole fiasco.
Halo died as a series after Reach because even Bungie gave in to corporate greed, and it would be better if Chief was still just floating out there somewhere.
i think there will be and it will be glorious

There’s a list of VIP that get the builds, and they make up less than 1% of the flights. 343 has been transparent about this several times. And of those MVPs, it’s 100% their decision to stream and create content with it. 343 isn’t playing games and trying to market to you. Lets take the tinfoil hat off.

I too hope there’s not that much time left until the full release… but I also hope there’s not something players will get for participating in the flights because I too haven’t got an invitation since the first flight.
Dropping this post here from ske7ch about inviting content creators. If you won’t take my word, take the word of the Community Director

The amount of people here that are blaming the system of being corrupt because they are so entitled to get into a flight. Get over yourself, I haven’t got in either and I wish I did but I’m not sitting here blaming 343 for being greedy and only inviting streamers and youtubers. Stop acting like spoiled children, this game will release fairly soon at $10. I don’t know about you but 343 could have charged $15 to $25 and people still would buy it and probably every other game in the series. Be grateful.
