Halo Dev Tracker

are you able to also report this via the support site? One, we are using these flights to also test that new site and how it operates, etc.. but two, it gives a more direct line to the team. Appreciate you flagging this, thank you!

We've never given a release date or window yet other than "it's ready when it's ready." Things are going pretty good though, but these flights (and more importantly PC, since it's new) will inform a lot about the work ahead, remaining issues, etc..

Update HERE

A huge batch of new invites has gone out - but now I'm told they're processing ONE MORE BATCH so, there's still hope? #DeliverHope

The new batch has been sent! We've doubled the size of the flight audience.

Please share this in our official support site (or at least in the pinned Reach flight thread here - makes it much easier for the right folks to find this info)

Hahah GGs! Not sure if it was this game or the one after, but I unfortunately crashed before we finished (I didn't quit).

Welcome aboard! We need your help! If you can, please try and play Social Matchmaking tomorrow (10/5) between 5-9PM PT. We are trying to drive a large number of concurrent players to really stress our systems and services.

FYI - We just doubled the size of the audience for this Xbox Halo: Reach MP flight. If you're a registered Halo Insider who opted in for Xbox flighting, please check your inbox (and spam folders) on the email account you signed-up with. More info HERE.

No guarantees here obviously - we still have far more Halo Insiders opted-in than we can really accommodate. But, good news is that it sounds like we're adding upwards of 15K more people over the course of the day. Part of the selection criteria will be targeting eligible Insiders who have been active in H5/MCC over the past 90 days (in an attempt to get engaged players in who will actually play). Not sure of the exact cutoff criteria / definition of 'active'. Thus far we've seen somewhat disappointingly low engagement amongst the large initial group that was invited. We're looking to drive a big push for tomorrow's 5-9PM PT play session to really get a high concurrent player count and try and stress services more. If you get an invite (or already did), please plan to join us tomorrow evening if at all possible!

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Game clips are great!

Game clips uploaded to reddit are less great. It creates a LOT more work for me to get a reddit video in a state that I can actually use on our blog software.

I wish it were easier and I know it's something we've requested but I have no idea if/when any changes will be made so in the meantime, I recommend clipping your games via DVR (or capture card I guess) and then tweeting them using #HaloSpotlight.

It's much easier for me to work with tweets (and of course YouTube links!) than it is a reddit clip. I might make exceptions for longer reddit videos but even then, it's a bit of a pain in the rear.

Hopefully this helps a bit!

I absolutely love Simon's piece. It's so good.

Thank you! <3

it would be super duper helpful if you can also post those issues to the support site / file a ticket. (but we'll keep tabs here, too)

If you have clips/films and can report via the support site, that would be super helpful for the team. The more information and specifics, the better.

it's been an issue for some folks (myself included). I unenrolled/re-enrolled and power cycled by console multiple times last night and it finally worked. Hope yours eventually did, too
