[2020] Halo: The Master Chief Collection | Combat Evolved & Reach Flight #4 Discussion

We're aware of a small group that was invited that didn't opt-in for PC/Steam. Thankfully it's a small subset of users so it's not really to the detriment of someone else/the program itself. (in every flight a decent sized chunk of people never open the email / install the build)

Alas that likely means you weren't selected this time. While we did send out upwards of 100k invitations for this flight that's still only a fraction of our entire Halo Insider opted-in audience. We can't ever accommodate EVERYONE in a single flight but we will continue working to bring in new players. For this flight, players who were actively engaging in prior flights were brought back but the team also specifically created a user-group of Insiders who've never had a chance yet. Once in, make sure to participate if you'd like to increase your odds of staying in. :) (oh and make sure your Halo Insider profile is up to date - we always have folks that get selected but then they haven't verified their email so we have no way to send the invite)

We know this isn't an ideal process, especially as our scope and audience has grown dramatically. We're working on ways to further streamline this and hopefully get down to just one email in the future (including some other improvements we hope will alleviate some pain points we always see when these mass mailings go out)

As of now there are no current plans but it's usually TBD - if the team isn't getting the #s they need or engagement is low, they could opt to send out another wave. If not, there will be more flights!

An issue was identifed right away where some Insider flight groups were missing backened permissions to access the site. I believe it was quickly resolved. (thanks for visiting/using that site!)
