if on pc, delete game and reinstall. it then adds the campaign

IT's what I did. Not sure if I just added some extra time to my download by not waiting for it to proc automatically, but I do see (campaign) in the download bar on Gamepass.

 

[SafeOrAlone]

I heard intro section is pretty lame. Go into first segment with low expectations and maybe have them upended.

 

[ManaByte]

Download is quite fast here. They seem to have learned the lesson with server stress.

Oh wow from the first real time cutscene, with that pilot. Game is remarkably ugly. Looks like X360 game in 4K. I dig the sharpness, don't get me wrong. But boy....

It reminds me of Death Space, maybe due to palette or something like that. Skin shading is missing (or it's really paired back). Quality mode and screen is in the png. Straight from the console.

 

[Forsythia]

I'm surprised I can download the game with my regular speed. Will be playing in an hour (yes that's fast for me)

 

[Sakura]

Close the xbox app, reopen it, go to the page for the halo infinite multiplayer in the PC app and switch the version to the campaign and it should say "Update Available"

I just did it on both of my gaming PCs after it wouldn't work at first.

Was doing that but nothing was showing up.

Ended up restarting my PC, and now it shows up

 

[WoodyStare]

It is time…

 

[Draugoth]

Has to unistall MP on Xbox App, Microsoft Store app is so bad heyuwgedh

 

[buenoblue]

Sorry Kev. I'll stop updating my progress in trying to install the game, like every fucking body else is doing

 

[SEGA_2012]

To people having troubles, try to restart your XBOX and and start the game again, it worked for me.

Try restarting PC instead... worked for me

 

[Kev Kev]

ok if people are going to start talking about the game, imma have to see my way out. give em hell, spartans! see you on Zeta!!!

 

[Gen X]

Are you guys downloading language packs? My d/l size is only 21.88gb, English only.

The way this preload was handled has been arse, last couple of days we get the old "preload to play on day 1" and I couldn't see a single place to preload. If I hadn't seen above that there was a 3.97gb patch I'd have given up for now.

 

[Krappadizzle]

figured it was as fucking backwards as that..
i still have flashbacks of gears 4 on the windows store

umm... well, you.will...see....things.

 

[TaroYamada]

Game just finally started downloading a 4GB update. Had to restart whole computer and it still took a while to tell me it had one available.

My 1080ti with Halo Infinite:

 

[Tg89]

The Xbox PC App is so fucking bad lol

 

[MastAndo]

Not sure who needs to hear this as you probably already know, but after starting the download, quitting out of the game speeds things up - though that goes for any XSX game, downloads are faster while not in a game.

 

[Strider Highwind]

Was doing that but nothing was showing up.

Ended up restarting my PC, and now it shows up

Glad you got it going, its time!

 

[metareferential]

So still a no-go?

It doesn't let me play. Still says "available dec 8".

Guess I'll wait for co-op to be added in...

 

[M1chl]

Alright I haven't played the MP, but this gotta be the tightest controls of any console game.

damn/10

Craig be blessed.

 

[Spukc]

umm... well, you.will...see....things.

lol but is it like hivebusters level? because that dlc was pretty sweet imo

The Xbox PC App is so fucking bad lol

agreed fuck that fucking thing

 

[Sephimoth]

FFS downloaded the 4gb update, settle down to enjoy then it tells me when I load game there's another 20+ gb!!!

 

[ManaByte]

Holy tuck the music. The audio is perfect.

 

[M1chl]

Nah, like you can see in that post you reacted to it, it really feels even animation wise like a x-enhanced X360 game. I am pretty shocked to be honest. But it plays well, really well. Like the input lag :chef-kiss:

[AJUMP23]

I’m waiting on mine to download now, while I send some emails.

 

[WoodyStare]

The grappleshot is a blast to use. Really takes the traditional Halo gameplay to the next level.

 

[cormack12]

Must he getting hammered. Mine was flying along and now crawling at like 66%

 

[SEGA_2012]

Reach 50% of download, still 40 minutes of wait

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Downloading now on Steam. I should be able to play it in the next hour.

I haven’t been this hyped for Halo in 12 years.

LET’S GO!

 

[buenoblue]

I deleted the multiplayer, restarted pc redownloaded. Started campaign now have a 20Gb update. Just download the fucking game already. Download going pretty fast though, should be 10 mins Max.

 

[Luipadre]

Dafuq is up with the gamma in cutscenes?? It looked so bad on my OLED i almost puked holy shit, who tested this.

 

[WoodyStare]

The first mission alone is better than Halo 5.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Downloading now on Steam. I should be able to play it in the next hour.

LET’S GO!

12 years of waiting for a true Halo game to come back… 30 more minutes won’t hurt me much. At least my 12 years old Scotch will get extra cold in the freezer.

 

[Fredrik]

Everything downloaded, kids are in bed, controller charged, just one button press away let’s do this!

Edit: Wrong! Still 25,86 GB to go gaaaah!

 

[Rob_27]

Finally in.

 

[twilo99]

Has anyone gotten the update from gamepass on PC ?

Nothing showing up for me

 

[JT14]

Played the first 1 hr, gameplay is hella smooth and addictive and anyone who says Halo 5 looks better is an idiot. This game is impressive so far with a great introduction.

 

[Rob_27]

Got a silent achievement must have been for waiting so long

 

[Nikana]

Uninstalled. Not enough Call of Duty.

Kidding.

Will check it out tonight. Enjoy everyone.

 

[Stuart360]

The grunts are hilarious in this, i feel bad killing them lol.

 

[Tg89]

Seems fun so far, very Halo 1 esque intro. Everything is super smooth. My biggest issue seems like it'll be the same as usual, there's only like 3 guns that are satisfying to use in this series.

 

[Spukc]

The grunts are hilarious in this, i feel bad killing them lol.

Same it’s like killing pets
Guns sounds and explosions are hot as fuck tho.

the animation is weird.. textures are great.
So far the enviroments are drab as fuck.
they all just kinda look the same
Giant weird halls that serve no real life use

 

[MachRc]

jeebus cracked before most of us have finished downloading the the proper game on the series x
