Thank you i guess i didn't make it! :(

I didn't get in the first 2 waves, so I'm really not holding my breath for this one. They say the 3rd time's the charm, but I guess we'll see. I really want to get it too :(

I am with you :cry:

True it is only a few days away. But for those who get in, we are just that closer to creating our avatar, install games, and start enjoying it without worrying the major server lag come the 19th. You know how much that load will be? thats the only reason i signed up early, that and install hd. thats it.

Or i would of waited.

Well it looks like i didn't get in, which is surprising. I figured this time they would add everyone who signed up, but i guess not. Oh well, i've got too many new games to waste time on the dash anyway.

No, they had to let all the Silver members who signed up into the Preview program first, so the rest of us Gold members can get stuck in the server clog come the 19th.

^ bro your wrong. They accepted both Silver and Gold. Im gold I got accepted. Many of the people that come into gamestop are gold and a few of my friends are. Only 2 out of all these people got accepted the first two times around. My friends that are silver, only 1 got accepted. But cant enjoy it becuase what is he gonna do? No gold ='s no multiplayer. So he just has the dash.

So, both got accepted, just different internet speeds, etc etc is what they looked at.

I'm on NXE already though (unofficially), I really really hope it lets me update :laugh:

Would be good timing (although 10pm is fairly late), as I'm having friends over tonight to play GHWT, and I really wanted to get online to check DLC.

Do you think it will be strict to the times it lists?

    • If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/
    • I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it
    • Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
    • My advice, dont use teams, use the web version if possible. https://teams.microsoft.com/v2/
