Hey everyone.

E-mails are going out now for the Halo Infinite tech preview for July 29-August 1. Be sure to check the e-mail associated with your Halo Insider account.

This will be the dedicated thread to discuss the e-mails rolling out.

Good luck Spartans.

Edit: Probably a good idea to check your spam folders, just in case it ended up in there.

Don't want to give false hope or anything like that but more of a "just so you're aware" kind of thing, here.

We sent a lot of emails but sometimes ISPs, providers, domains, etc might not let those through so even if you didn't get an email, please do check your Waypoint inbox on Thursday just in case. 🙏🏻

I know I'm on the list because I added myself and I still don't have my email (set to a gmail account if that matters/helps/whatever) so hopefully that gives some perspective.

In the meantime, fingers crossed for you all and for those that have been selected, can't wait to see you out strafed by bots. 😎

Edit - I also see some of y'all asking about "but how did you decide?" We definitely touched on that in last week's Inside Infinite:

Please note that registering as a Halo Insider doesn’t guarantee access to technical previews or pre-release hands-on gameplay tests (“flights”). The number of Insiders being invited, and the criteria by which these Insiders are selected, will vary given the specific scope and goals for a flight. For the tech preview, we have concurrency targets tied to our overall goals that will inform how many total Insiders should be invited. Within that pool of players, our first priority will be ensuring we have a broad distribution of platforms (Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and different PC configurations) and then we will look at overall tenure in the program, prioritizing our longest standing Insiders, until we've allocated every invitation.

Has it shown up in your Waypoint inbox yet? Or does that only show up on the day it goes live?

Nothing is hitting Waypoint until we push builds live on Thursday.

Are emails still being sent in waves? Or have all the emails sent?Excluding IPs and things prohibiting members from getting an email.

There are no "waves" - we set them all to be sent at once.

People were getting theirs hour's after other people did. So if they're not waves, does that just mean we likely weren't accepted of we haven't gotten an email by now? But to still check Waypoint on Thursday?

I refer you back to my original post.

Why do you keep asking him questions he's already answered?

No harm, no foul here so please don't think I'm upset or anything but for future reference for you and /u/bryanl12 (and anyone reading who doesn't know), I'm a girl. :)

Don't hold me to this if it's not true but I think so.
