Apart from NewGamesOfToday, I don't think anyone has. Perhaps because a preview build has just been released, Microsoft aren't adding any more people to the program until the official update is rolled out. Plus, there is no guarantee you'll get on to it anyway.
but we will never know

Hopefully they are doing it in waves, I cant see them rejecting all of you. Hopefully someone will get in and report back.
Or maybe it is just me, wait and see if the guys/girls that gds has requested get in before you guys/girls. |

I think a better wording for the preview app would be Nominate a friend and not Invite a friend.
smcbeath I hope the people I invited actually post back to let us all know if they get in. |

![]() But I am confused, what do you mean you only found out by going to the preview dashboard, how did you know you had the preview dashboard? |

Sorry to spam/ answer my own question, if anyone's hdd is not working go in to your pc/mac and make sure your hdd is active in the disk management settings so your xb1 can read it.

You can check what your latest is by going into -
dashboard settings console info OS version - ( xb_rel_1409.140817-2200 ) well that's my current status anyway. If you are in the beta but you don't have the media player preview, plug your usb hdd into the back of your xbox usb port, I think there was problems with the side port. Might have been fixed by now? I rip my hd-dvd and blu rays to hard drive. Doesn't play my hd-dvd and it plays the intro/ads to universal soldier blu ray but not the movie. |

The side USB port worked fine for me last night when I tried the Media Player Preview for the first time.

To be honest I think I joined already as I recall filling out more details before. Any idea how to actually check if your in or not? If I am in, where do I find the media player app? |

As for the Preview Registration app does you one offer you quests to complete etc? If not then there is another app you need to download but I can't tell you the exact name as I'm at work but if you look on the Xbox preview forum you should be able to find details there. |

Well I'm going to assume I didn't get in, it's been nearly 2 weeks now and got nada. If anyone fancies chucking another invite at me (GT: dcdingo) then please do but I'm not going to keep badgering people! I'll just use my xbox like some common pauper rather than living it up with the chosen ones!

Downloaded the new Preview Dashboard. Completed a few surveys. Felt a bit redundant on one of them as it was about Upload and I don't make game clips (other than the automatic ones from FIFA) or even watch that many.
Will do some Quests over the weekend. I'll go through the list as well and send invites for anyone not already in. |

You know when you do something, and straight away you regret doing it.
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/diab...4#post22622447 Diablo 3 - £22.10 People have been doing the same thing with American accounts since day 1, so don't know if they will swing ban hammer my way. One of the cons of going all digital, I lose everything, lol You need to be part of the preview to exploit it. |

I don't think MS will bring down the ban hammer, as I mean at the end of the day they are still getting paid. It's not like your pirating the game. If anything I think they will just attempt to block this from happening again in the future if they do want to do something. Imagine if they did ban anyone who has done this, the PR nightmare that would follow would be interesting. |
