10 more Attrition challenges?

I finished all of the weekly challenges this week including the ultimate challenge and earned the Rampant visor. In doing so that also means I completed 10 event challenges and finished the Cyber Showdown event. It was impossible to finish the weekly challenges without completing the event.

But apparently the Cyber Showdown event continues for another week. Does that mean that I am going to be forced to complete 10 more event challenges just to complete the weekly challenge even though I have already finished the event?

Hopefully, the system will recognize that I completed the event and not give me more event challenges but I doubt it.

I don’t enjoy Attrition. If I am forced to do more event challenges in order to earn the weekly reward, I apologize in advance to anyone who gets me on their team. I will just be doing the minimum to get my challenges done and then end the game as fast as possible.

This is a good question. But at least you’ll know 50% of your challenges will all be in one playlist, so you’ll be able to have all 4 of your current challenges all progress able in the same match at the same time more often than usual.

I hate the current system where often all your challenges require unique playlists or game modes. I go out of my way to look ahead and try to line up 2-3 challenges that have the same playlist requirement and it’s just tedious.

I’d much prefer, outside of events for obvious reasons, that challenges be gametype and playlist universal. Focusing on stuff you can do with a broad range of tools.

Headshots with any weapon that can headshot for example.

Yeah, but if I get 3 more Attrition backsmack challenges like I did last time I think I might end up throwing my controller.

I guess you’ll find out tomorrow but if that event battlepass is completed I would think you wouldn’t get those challenges again. Anything is possible with 343 though…

Same. It’s got very boring very fast…plus the only worthwhile CS unlock/reward was the stance for the first challenge.

If they add more attrition challenges to the weekly challenges if you’ve already completed CS then I hope the reward is totally crap so I’m not tempted to bother with it.

Well, there it is. I have already completed the Cyber Showdown event but 343 still gives me 10 event challenges. Not to mention, these back smack challenges and revive challenges are some of the worst ones in the game. Awful event implementation.

Again, I apologize in advance to anyone who gets me on their team. I will just be doing the minimum to get my challenges done and then end the game as fast as possible.

Im not going to grind a weapon color scheme. If im playing, then only the playlist i want to play.

I absolutely hate how they‘ve intentionally set up these challenges. Not only forcing us to switch to playlists we don’t want to play or use swaps, but also to change our play style for specific kill types or weapons…and not to mention the total RNG nature of some of the challenges such as doing specific things within a specific gametype (ie capture x-number of flags in CTF when it’s hard enough to even get a CTF game in the first place…or similarly when it’s an Oddball or Strongholds challenge and the game type doesn’t appear for over an hour in the rotation).

Thats why I didnt go for that lame visor that looks just like the default visor last week. This weeks reward is much better. I was trying to get all 10 levels last week until I reached a point where I quit 7 games of quick play and didnt get strongholds. So I just waited for the weeklies to reset

The whole challenge system is definitely designed to be frustrating. Obviously 343 is more than happy to sell you a solution. But there is no solution to the 10 event challenges because if I swap them I just get more event challenges for an event I’ve already completed.

Yeah, that’s one reason I’m not doing this weekly challenge, as much as I’d like a Bulldog skin. Attrition is a fun idea, for sure, but man, it takes forever to complete most attrition challenges. It doesn’t help that things like backsmacks don’t count if you backsmack an invisible or overshield guy; that screwed my brother from completing a challenge more quickly. And yeah, 6 revives, holy crap…

Those challenges are the #1 reason I hope Attrition doesn’t become a standard game mode. If it’s standard like Fiesta, that means we’ll need to deal with those challenges again.

On a side note: Is it just me, or do more Attrition players have a greater compulsion to -Yoink!- than players in other game modes? These kinds of weirdos appear sometimes, but 9/10 Attrition games have up to an entire team of teabaggers.

yep. Just finished my regular weeklies and no ultimate. I don’t mid the game type per say, but it is such a sweat fest compared to every other mode. Something a simple as “get 50 kills” can take over 2 hours of game play with the lobbies I keep getting. I had to just stop playing and walk away a few times today.

Yup. And it makes it even worse when someone on the enemy team quits and it adds in more players but doesn’t stop so now it’s 5 on 4. What’s up with that??? Had one game finish 7 on 5! Ridiculous garbage game type.
