Just my opinion

First off kudos to 343 for creating the best playing Halo in years. I haven’t enjoyed playing multiplayer this much since Halo 3 (which is my favorite in the series). That quickly faded once I realized that I had to complete the challenges to have any sort of progression. I went from enjoying the game to grinding to get these challenges done. From earning top scores on my team to being dead last because I needed to do a certain thing. I changed from playing the game to grinding for the levels. I paid for the battlepass and within a few hours was wishing I could get a refund. It took all the fun I was having away, exchanged for a frustrating loop of looking for a certain weapon, or hoping for a certain game mode. It absolutely changed the game in a negative way. I think at this point I’m just going to take a break, maybe they will fix this at some point. But, for now I’m just going to wait on the campaign and see how that turns out.

Shame to hear, have you considered just playing the game and ignoring the challenges? You’ll get half of them through regular play anyway and your battle pass can slowly progress. Takes 2,000 games with no challenges which is kinda mad but still doable.

It’s a psychological fomo thing. If the challenge is there I feel I have to complete it. It’s just how I’m wired I guess. I need the metaphorical carrot. I can’t just ignore it, especially since I’ve spent money on it.

Well done for pulling up a 2 month old post within 7 minutes after an expected update. At least give it a try first :joy:

Edit: not even 7 minutes, I was the 7 minutes, you did it bang on the hour :joy:

Pretty sure its more like 700 games? You play 7 games per day to get 1000XP and there’s 100 levels in the BP, so 7 x 100 = 700 games from start to end.

Edit: wow! Didn’t really this thread had been dug up from the grave…and from a time when the daily XP didn’t even exist…so please ignore my reply!
