Halo developer 343 Industries announced in a blog post that Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary is slated to begin public flighting in February. This is a slightly later than the expected January tests, but the flights are nevertheless coming soon. The game is expected to begin being tested privately during January, and then if all goes well, the scope of the testing will expand and a public flight will begin next month. The content of the flight itself will include a variety of content from Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, including Campaign (both solo and co-op), Multiplayer, and even the title's Customization and Progression systems.

Why do they call it a flight?

What does that even mean? The MCC is already available on steam.

They haven't put all the games out yet. They're introducing each game seperately, Halo Reach is currently the only game available in the collection on PC.

This rollout is excruciating. Then again I'm glad they're doing this right. The original release of the MCC Collection was a bad time as far as multiplayer is concerned.

My worry is they move on to the next one and leave stuff in the previous game unpatched. Reach has serious problems on PC that need a lot of effort to fix.

It's fair to release these games months in between, very smart by 343 and PC gamers should be HYPED for Halo 1.

Yeah wtf. The audio still sucks, and theres problems with the game running above 60 fps, with 60 fps not looking smooth as well.

There are fixes coming to reach that they are also testing in this flight.
