Not necessarily. Those are times they want all insiders to play in order to get as much data as possible.

This. They are designating those times as real stress and bug testing periods. They want the data to make things better.Not necessarily. Those are times they want all insiders to play in order to get as much data as possible.

Did they say that? The footage yesterday was clearly 30 fps while the Series X footage was at 60 in the same stream.
I think that information will all be included in the email/waypoint message when they are sent out.I see the starting date from the most recent post ("Thursday, July 29: Tech preview is officially live! Go wild, Spartans"), and aside from waiting for a Waypoint message or email, do we have specifics on where we'll be getting the download for the client on console? I'm basically wondering if I'll have a way to start the download remotely from work.
Maybe this is a gross oversimplification, but I think the biggest causality of hitting 60fps with Halo 5 was losing split screen. With split screen rightly being back with Infinite, maybe the cost is now 30fps
Which I can't get mad about on an almost decade old piece of hardware.
Why could that not happen then? Distribute the build now for download, open the servers later. 🤷♂️

They want to set play-times where they can expect mass participation at once to best stress test their back-end. It's fairly normal for a test environment to define set play test times.""Note that while the tech preview is live, you'll always have the ability to matchmake! But, if you're unsure of when to play, please join us during the following scheduled play times"
It's a strange sentence for me. I take it to mean that we can play with the developers.

As I also noted here , the stream itself was 1080p/60 from start to finish, Infinite MP on Xbox One was @ 30fps while MP on Xbox Series X was @ 60fps.With my eyes, I don't know lol. The same exact way I can tell when playing! The Xbox One footage was 100% 30 FPS, and the Xbox Series X footage was 60 FPS, that was plain as day.
I had a look on Waypoint but couldn't see anything regarding when the test goes live? I've had nothing yet and it's 3.30pm
I only played halo 1 but will this game also have those huge battlefield maps with vehicles and ships?
Fans:sometime AFTER 12pm PST [8PM UK] (this is an estimated time, not an exact drop time)

Lots of f2p games crash and burn fast.Considering infinte is F2P, itll have no problems attracting new players lmao
Does the mode have a specific name?
Man I wish we could go back to Halo 1 and 2. I hate loadouts and special items. This just doesn't look fun at all.
This made me laugh way too hard.
Can someone pin this please
The only source of infomation regarding what time the preview goes live is a Tweet from Brian Jarrard saying "looking like afternoon" which is anywhere from 12:00 PST to 18:00 PST
The waypoint post is from a community manager incorrectly basing his quoted time on the tweet
Earliest potential start time
Latest potential start time
Emails will take time to send out (12 hour period) check you Halo Waypoint messages for quicker infomation.

The Technical preview is playable at ANY time so long as it's Live.
I got my email at 4:36 am est time to be invited. Not expecting the email with the code to download until then. At that point that's a whole day lost of playing. They need a better system than this if it plays out this way.
There are no loadouts and "special items" function exactly like equipment did in H3 but go off.Man I wish we could go back to Halo 1 and 2. I hate loadouts and special items. This just doesn't look fun at all.
To be fair equipment sucked in Halo 3.There are no loadouts and "special items" function exactly like equipment did in H3 but go off.
lol whatMan I wish we could go back to Halo 1 and 2. I hate loadouts and special items. This just doesn't look fun at all.
I see a lot of bad posts on this forum but this is especially weird considering MCC exists and is fully supported. you can go back to halo 1 and 2 whenever you'd likeMan I wish we could go back to Halo 1 and 2. I hate loadouts and special items. This just doesn't look fun at all.
I'm indifferent but also a huge H3 fanboy so there's that haha.
I just don't get the criticism - There are no loadouts in Infinite, and equipment has a lineage in classic Halo. Even Halo and Halo 2 had pick ups on the map that provided special abilities.I'm indifferent but also a huge H3 fanboy so there's that haha.
I'd rather have pick up equipment than H4 loadouts or H5's advanced mobility.
