I guess challenges are April fools...

Games Other Halo
1

Kill 5000 players, for 1000XP. Huh.

2

Yea, horrible… I was looking forward to having a days marathon session today, but guess I have to wait until tomorrow to have fun…

3

In game it says 1,000xp, but on the site it says 50,000xp. Still no way I’m getting 5k kills in the next month.

4

And what about the daily Xp rewards? Playing 10 secs of Spartan Ops seems a better choice for today.

5

April Fools jokes are fun and all, but to mess with all of the challenges? come on.

6

I’ll play along who knows what will happen

7

Completing this weeks Spartan Ops episode in reverse order gives you a new visor called Rainbow but can only be done today. Source is some guy who was wearing it while playing CTF.

8

Well, my son and I just completed Dawn on Legendary with Mythic skull for a bunch of credits, that was pretty nice.

5000 for 1000 xp?

… puts on sunglasses Bring it on.

I don’t get to participate in April Fool’s since I’m SR-130.

So. I’m SR-130 and I still challenge myself with the challenges.

1000XP

Win the final encounter against the Didact without pressing LT or RT.

Okay, cool.

I’m not sure what to think.

On the bright side,

The weekly challenges for Spartan Ops are actually something that’ll take a week (not to mention helping Commendations, though I’ve already finished Hunters :/). The weekly challenges for Campaign are also a lot more interesting than turning on 3-4 skulls.

On the other hand,

XP payout has been drastically reduced (makes sense for Campaign actually).

Is this some diabolical ploy or are they seriously trying to give us a proper challenge? All I know is I have plenty reason to play accursed Dawn today. Bravo 343.

I sure wish they would raise the level cap so I could care about earning xp again.
