Alright well I switched over to opting in for the preview. Such a low level though so I'm not expecting anything.
 
I was also able to register through the preview app itself, even though I haven't received an invite yet.

Any word on getting access to some apps updated to their Windows 10 version while we're in preview? I hope the Xfinity app comes back in Windows 10 form.

Just a heads up:

Important - you can unenroll at any time, but your console will keep receiving updates until the current update wave is over, and the update has been released to the general public.

Important: please read below before selecting confirm

- Not all games and apps will work in early releases of the New Xbox One Experience. Please see known issues in the preview dashboard for details

- The New Xbox One Experience is still in development. not all features are available initially, and early updates may be unstable.

- This release will roll out to small groups initially, and larger groups over time.

- After you have installed the New Xbox One Experience, you can opt out at any time. Please note that this will restore factory defaults on your console, and erase all locally stored accounts, apps, games, saved games, settings, and home Xbox associations.


The some games won't work part is interesting.

Umm, this part seriously sucks.

Yeah, but not surprising. Same thing happened with W10 preview builds for PC and phone, there is no easy way to roll-back. It's not a full release for a reason, that's why its opt-in.

Your saves are cloud-saved so those are fine. You probably could save your games to a hard drive and maybe those don't get deleted?

I'm still up for it.
 
Below those games & apps there's a list of current known issues as well.

I'm very excited for this, but I think I'm going to hold off on opting in for a bit.

When they say a game or app may "fail to launch", do they mean like it will fail to launch once and you can try it again and it'll probably launch or that it might just full on not work for some users?

Just updated for me, I'll type those up as well since the forums haven't updated with an official post

I'm making an OT for it so we don't have multiple threads when new issues pop up. Beta tested in the future for title?

Thanks.

That list... might opt out for the time being. Forza 6 and TTK are the only games I'm going to play until Halo.

Just registered for New Xbox One Experience Preview via Xbox Preview App. Havne't gotten the invite so hope I get in.

Keep it in mind this preview will be updated around twice per week. Whatever not working should be fixed fairly quickly. Microsoft has some top programmers.

Go to the preview dashboard, click on registration, and then click to change your enrollment. The new Xbox one experience preview is one of the options.

I highly doubt if this is going to be as buggy as W10/W10Mobile builds. Because aimed for different audiences. This will be buggy in some ways, but not as risky as the other W10 PC previews. Breaking your console is out of a question.

You should read the patch notes. Destiny doesn't even start. Entire existing features don't work any more etc.
