Mix of halo 4 and destiny...sounds promisingFriday, December 19, 2014 @ 10:58 AM
Still waiting on my code. Wanted to at least START downloading it while I slept. Oh well, still getting to play early is nice.Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 11:02 AM
So get Halo MMC to get beta what a load of bullshitFriday, December 19, 2014 @ 11:24 AM
is there any way to sign out of the beta once you finishedFriday, December 19, 2014 @ 11:25 AM
Considering the launch Halo MCC had, you'd think they'd allow everyone early access to the Beta. Would have been nice.Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 11:37 AM
Glad I'm a Preview MemberFriday, December 19, 2014 @ 11:39 AM
I have a feeling this is to test before the beta launch on 29th. After the joke of a launch for MCC they need to get this stuff tested fully before release. If they screw this up they will lose a lot more fans.Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 11:40 AM
The announcer is giving me douche chills.Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 12:10 PM
Let us know if I even works lolFriday, December 19, 2014 @ 12:24 PM
It doesn't look that great...Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 01:03 PM
Still waiting on my code as well. Hoping this goes better than the Halo MCC beta!Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 01:08 PM
@5... Considering the launch Halo MCC had only affected people who bought MCC, why would you be compensated for something you didn't purchase in the first place?Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 01:40 PM
@3 Everyone has known that since before the release of Halo Master Chief Collection. How can you be angry when it's not a surprise to anyone but yourself? Besides: Most BETAs run this way. You buy a game to get your access to the BETA later. Doing it this way ensures two things: 1. You get a good measure of the amount of players actually interested in the game and whom are going to clog up your servers because the ones who are pretty much going to buy the game your BETA is based on will have picked up the requested game for the BETA alone. 2. You're giving a preview to players of your game who are Loyal Fans of your published titles as a means of showing that you care about them and their opinions of your content. It's also done that way to secure some extra sales of other games... But, they wouldn't do that if it didn't work (as in, if the players didn't purchase games just to get into the BETA of another game. It's a sales tactic that works because it's what players like and it's what they want).Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 02:56 PM
Just didn't see the point them saying get MMC to play beta oh to sell more copyFriday, December 19, 2014 @ 03:09 PM
Should've delayed the beta until hmcc is working properly...Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 04:27 PM

This WAS a selling point... Now it's just retarded... Kinda like the Destiny Beta which was open beta 2 days after Xbox got it... Where's my cigarette? I like to smoke before i get...Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 05:08 PM
someone please invite me to the preview program, that'd be awesomeFriday, December 19, 2014 @ 07:00 PM
How did I miss the AW boost slam? Can developers not come up with their own ideas?Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 08:01 PM
Seriously buy the mcc to get beta and not get the first part of it when the game still dose not work!Wow....Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 09:33 PM

Just got my message. It won't be done before work, so I guess day one of the beta is out the window for me.Friday, December 19, 2014 @ 11:04 PM

#27 you stfu and let them release a working playable game on its actual release date and not a month later asswipeSaturday, December 20, 2014 @ 08:23 PM
You had FOUR campaigns to play in the meantime of them fixing the MP. And the reason MP was broken is because they had to make FIVE DIFFERENT game engines, that span over TWO gaming generations, work together in order for people being able to play cross-game. NOTHING like this has been done before, so even though i agree with you that games should work on release, for once, people should give them some leeway. so props for them trying and even though it didn't work as planned, they have been fixing it.Saturday, December 20, 2014 @ 08:25 PM
Let's also not forget that not only the game engines span TWO generations, the software spans THREE generations of consoles
