One of the many reasons I am not motivated to play this game. Going for the weekly rewards was one of the only incentivating rewards to keep playing this game, but having to go into game modes I find obnoxious or annoying gets old real fast when I could rather play a game I just enjoy.
The ultimate is also rumble pit. Fml
I honestly don’t mind it if it’s just FFA slayer. I just run around killing people (or try) whenever that dumb vampireball game comes up. Because it seems it’s always that or slayer for me whenever I jump into FFA to do challenges. I swap out the ones that say I have to win or get a certain placement.
The problem with FFA is that there’s simply too many players in the playlist its quite simple to work out that if you have 4 corners then the should only be 4 spawns i.e. Spartans its not rocket science why is it not being implemented into the playlist already its very clear that the maps do not support 6 players for FFA if you want to have 6 players then unfortunately you will need to design maps to reflect that ie geometry 343?
FFA is eight players.
I’m simply not a fan of any game mode that I’m forced to play on a fireteam of one. I really only play Halo with friends, so the FFA challenges are a real killjoy.

Just wanted to chime in on how trash the challenges are. The weekly challenge was RP and thus could not be changed. In my final game I was the last kill to some guy with almost 5000 games. It is simply terrible design to force players into playlists they do not want to play. Aside from this week’s crap ultimate challenge, it is annoying to see just RP, SWAT and Team Slayer take up the majority of challenges. It is even worse during events. Why would somebody want to constantly switch playlists every other game? It also splits up parties because everybody has something different to do. The whole system needs to be trashed and rebuilt from the ground up but we will be lucky to get small updates in the years to come.

Another week of ffa and tactical slayer challenges. I do not enjoy this. 343. If a playlist is dying there is a reason. Forcing the player base to play them is not helping change my mind, it is making me resent you.
343 must have heard me screaming at my TV last week because luckily this week I ended up with no rumble pit and only one tactical slayer challenge. Although I have a lot of team slayer ones but thankfully that is right up my alley. But I feel your pain on those challenges, I hate them…

I hate Rumble Pit. I hate Rumble Pit so much.
It’s the only game mode that I actually hate compared to the rest of the modes where I either really like them or still able to get some enjoyment out of them.
Last week I had Rumble Pit Challenges where I was spawning or someone else was spawning directly in front of me on Streets before being promptly killed, and then there was Vampireball on Live Fire where someone would just grab the ball, hide in the sniper tower, and all other 7 players would just be dragging each other down like crabs in a bucket by slaughtering whoever decided to try and go for the guy, letting him win with ease.
This week I have more Rumble Pit Challenges (Play a Rumble Pit Match, Kill Spartans in Rumble Pit, Earn 5k Score In Rumble Pit, and Finish In Top Four).
Fortunately I still have plenty of accumulated Challenge Swaps that I’m using specifically for Rumble Pit, so I’ll probably be using two to get rid of the 5k and Finish in Top Four Challenges.
