Are you also aware of those with laptops that have integrated graphics cards aren't getting invites? I have a Razer Blade 15 with an rtx 2060 and I haven't been invited for either flights. Did the dxdiag well before 9/12.

Edit: just saw the #2 edit. Thanks for addressing, ske7ch. Appreciate the hard work your team is putting into resolving these issues.

Just updated my main post up there but yes, digging into this more - it does indeed look like an issue where only the integrated GPU is detected, not the dedicated GPU. Unfortunately I'm told this is not a trivial issue to resolve and as such, very unlikely we can address for this flight. Wish I had better news, very sorry for that.

Here's a question: last flight I had a GTX 970, in between flights I upgraded to a RTX 3070 Ti. I forgot to update my dxdiag file on waypoint. Do I not get into the flight now that I've updated it? If not, no biggie, that's on me. Just wondering what to expect.

If you had the updated DXDIAG with your 3070 in your profile before the query was run, which I believe was 9/12, then you should get picked up in the batch today.
If you updated it after that cut-off, we won't be able to get you in this weekend but hopefully you'll be able to slip in next week via the expanded options I mentioned above.

This is EXACTLY the kind of response we were looking for. Porblems will always occour in beta builds, and obviously fixing the game ITSELF is a priority. Just giving your fans the feeling that their voice is heard, and that they're NOT forgotten by any means, is very important.

Please keep in mind we have thousands of people tweeting at us, tens of thousands of support tickets pouring in and we're just a few people doing the best we can. Everyone cares, we can just only do so much, so fast.
I'm very glad the team was able to sort out the 3080 card issues and steps are underway right now to remedy that along with the invalid steam keys - combined that's a decent chunk of players and trust me, we want all of them in this flight because that group alone could be the difference between us hitting our concurrency goals or not!

An issue was identified where 3080 and similar cards did not get recognized correctly. Looks like that's less than 2,000 people who fall into that category. Updated invites/keys should be going out to these folks who should've been included today (this work is underway now).

There are several thousand Insiders with 900-series GPUs who were invited last time but really shouldn't have been given the known issues and level of support in the game. For this preview, the call was made that this build doesn't officially support those cards, which means those folks did not get invited.

Additionally, we do have reports of a subset of Insiders who have reported that their profile was inexplicably wiped/reset. This is a new issue still being investigated with no obvious root cause and is not expected to be resolved during this preview.

There are admittedly a variety of less than ideal aspects to this entire flow and we recognize that. Unfortunately, tinkering with the ...

I did not see the door being the surprise star of the stream / multiplayer preview / entire game, but here we are. :) It is an awesome door.

Good news, we think we're in the clear here and Training Mode should be back on the menu.

hey, I got an update on this - unfortunately, it sounds like some 900-series card issues are still present in this upcoming preview build. The team did indeed address the major crash problem that was present during the last technical preview but as is often the case with game development, other issues have surfaced. I'm sorry to say that for this next preview, 900 series cards are not supported. I'll share more info as I can get it, the team is continuing to work on bug fixing and polish for this and other areas of the game on the road to release.

I really hope performance is better this time around. Last flight was unplayable for me on PC.

Lot of variables on PC but a bunch of bugs, including a number of specific performance issues, have been addressed. But, this still isn't the final shipping build and that work is ongoing, so could still be some bumps.

hope I get in, also we get the email saying we're invited the day of? cus I really hope it's a few days before so my garbage internet can install the game before the flight goes live

last time we sent out pre-selection emails ahead of time to let folks know so they could prepare. As far as I know we're doing similar again. Though, one learning we had was sending hundreds of thousands of emails took a long time. Some people were still receiving emails 2 days later.

If you've only selected PC and your current PC doesn't meet system requirements, you may not get invited. If your old GPU is good enough, won't matter.

Yeah that makes sense. I guess it was just a series of unfortunate events. Although I do wonder about what the percentage of people who get invited. All my friends were invited to the other flights which is what got me worried that I did something wrong

for the last flight, we invited hundreds of thousands of people but we had more who didn't get invited. this time we're inviting way more folks (but there are also way more insiders now). Really good chance every Insider is getting invited this time unless we suddenly have a million more sign-ups and the team gets worried it'll all crumble right out of the gate. :)
If you have green check marks you should be good (I assume console isn't green because you chose PC, which is fine, and I assume PC is green meaning you have a DXDIAG uploaded, Steam account linked, etc.)

last time a number of people who signed up for PC but either didn't include a DXDIAG or didn't meet min system targets were instead just sent an Xbox invite. yeah, kinda weird, I know, and not really the intent.

Sorry for the late reply here, I understand this has caused quite a stir!
As I understand it, this is an error and is not the team's intention. Text strings are run through a filtering service and it looks like something is a bit awry with the rules/settings. We don't have plans to block "Fat Kid" as a gametype string. (though, I do love the alternate naming ideas lol)

I LOVE this weapon. Sounds so crunchy, feels like it hits hard. It can get squirrely if you fire too fast but I love it

It has even more utility in BTB, IMO. Larger teams, larger maps, more points of interest, etc..

Well played! Reminder we are on the hunt for clips - feel free to share out on Twitter w/ #InfinitePlays to help the team source some sweet clips.

You love to see it! Hammer takes a little getting used to but this is a devastating combo
