So this week I finished all the challenges and the capstone challenge in two nights (I work 9-6 job so only play in the evenings, so haven’t been playing all day). I found it very easy to finish all the challenges, even the really annoying ones. Since the reset of challenges for the update, I’ve now done the capstone twice. But now I have nothing left to do so my progress in the pass seems to be halted until next week.
I know that there is 50xp now per game. But that means I need to play 20 games just level the pass once.
I’m at pass level 16, and I used my xp boosts at strategic points to get to where I am. But the time investment of 20 games to go up 1 level doesn’t feel worth it. So right now it encourages me to go play other games till the weekly reset when I’ve got challenges to complete again.
Right now this isn’t a massive problem for the player base as Galo Infinite is new and exciting so I’m going to play it anyway. But in a few months time when there are other new and exciting games on the market I’d fear this would turn away the hardcore players who focus on progression.
What are peoples thoughts on this?
It seems like those who really invest lots of time hit what I’d call a short term “endgame” too quickly.
P.S oh and yes I know the answer to my question in the title is - just play and enjoy the game!
I even ran out of the daily 50xp challenges, so it is literally impossible to progress my battle pass now. No challenges available. I was trying to see how quickly I could do bot modes to level up the battle pass and noticed I wasn’t even getting xp. I know people say “its balanced for 6 months of content” but this is really irritating, its like 343 are pulling a rope around my waist preventing me from moving forwards.
Doesn’t feel right to have the game cancel my no-life grinding, like I am being punished for enjoying the game too much lol
Yeah, I’m onto the last challenge now and it feels like a real drag. I also did not use my boost very strategically and couldn’t play much before the little reset, so I’m going to be stuck on level 10 only, meaning not only do I have the crappy feeling of not being able to progress I still after all this time have basically no customisation options to play with.
I finished all my challenges too and now I don’t get any exp per match. Why even play? Yes it’s fun but I’d like to progress the battle pass I PAID FOR.
Quit playing till 343 adds a real progression system. People said the challenges wouldn’t be a problem 1 or 2 days into the week, well now they’ve completed all their challenges and are gridlocked. Shills will now ask you to play 50 games a day for a pittance of 50 xp each so you can level up two and a half times over 6-8 hours.
You’d think they would at least test the challenge so this can’t happen? Saying it’s a flat 50 exp per match is kinda a lie at this point because of the lack of foresight in whoever coded it
