I have found this weeks challenges to be extremely long compared to last week’s. I have gotten two challenges that were get kills with the commando rifle and a third one on the way. The first one of those I got was manageable since it only requires 5 kills, but the second one I got, which appeared right after I completed that one, is asking me to get 15 kills. I also checked on the upcoming challenges and I have another one that is exactly like the one I’m working on except the exp earned is different. I don’t want to do the same challenge multiple times, especially when it comes to using this gun. I would like to point out that I did get a challenge swap to hopefully get a better challenge than this, but I got the same one except now I have to get 15 kills with a battle rifle.
Also, I don’t think it’s a good idea to have a challenge that tells you to play X amount of ranked matches. Just because I was playing to complete this challenge last night, I got messages from my former teammates about how trash I was. (Yes, I know I’m not good at the game and my aim sucks. . .with the battle rifle. I’m a casual player who only gets to play on the weekends. Of course I’m not going to be good at the game. That’s not the point.) I’m a player who didn’t have enough challenge swaps because I’m using them so I don’t have to get kills with the same gun three different times.
I noticed that on any challenge that required me to play/win a certain game mode, those modes never showed up until after I used a challenge swap on them. If this game is going to have challenges requiring playing/winning at certain game modes, we need the ability to choose what game mode we play instead of hoping the RNG is on our side.
In summary, the challenges need a bit of a rehaul. Maybe less challenges about getting kills with certain weapons, playing certain modes (unless we get the ability to choose our game mode like in the MCC), or challenges about playing ranked mode X amount of times (no it wasn’t hard, but I would rather not ruin other peoples matches because I have a challenge to play said mode). I don’t know what I would prefer challenge wise. All I know is that I would much rather not have RNG play a part in me completing my weekly challenges or not.
