Just take a look at what they have set up as the four daily challeneges today, lol. 1000 kills on holdout? 15 Wins in one day in MM (that’s 60% of the weekly requirement 2 weeks ago), kill 400 enemies in Reach (mehh) and complete a campaign mission with 3 skulls on Heroic (also pretty easy, but still!). I got the weekly yesterday because I actually had the time to get it but I’m pretty crammed with my schedule throuought the rest of the week.
Good luck to anyone who wants the weekly today (unless you play for more than 3 hours today) =)
I wouldn’t worry about it too much. There are still 5 more days to go. Yesterday was much easier than today. That’s just the way it goes. I would actually expect the dailies to be a bit harder if a Weekly hinged upon acquiring them.
As someone who is very busy in real life I’m glad for Custom Challenges. Since many times weeklies require too much time or better yet, too much time doing one thing when I enjoy all Reach has to offer, every Thursday I make my own weeklies in Firefight so I’m hoping this week I get those plus the weekly on Thursday.
I keep thing all the challenges are getting way to ridicolous and the Custom Challenges are maybe more time consuming, but lot easier. Meh, If I get 1000 kills in firefight matchmaking within 5 hours, which I have done, it gets me 10000 credits. 800 with 500 is 8000+ credits. and you get awarded after the challenge timer gets run out. So, say played non-stop heavily from 8 am to 8 pm and was online to re-enact the same challenge for say 800 kills for 3 hours. 3 x ? = 12 the Answer 4. So, I’d be awarded 4 times with 8000 credits which = 16000 credits a day. So, within a week of doing that, it would be nice. I’ve done it with 1000 kills firefight matchmakng within 3 hours and it gives me 10000. So, that would be 40,000 thousand credits a day.
So, I’m going to say, I’ll stick with Custom challenges and instead of mess around with their ridicule challenges, that only give 4000 credits and when your colonel, you are looking for 10000 or 40000 credits, because any small amount is like only boosting your rank by 400 credits it seems. Tiny bar add 6000 = maybe a hair raised. 20000 added for say the Daily challenge = slightly more hairier bar then normal, not much added.
So, all I would ask if the daily challenges, if they get harder, at least make it worth while and not some measily hair raised rank up.
Oh, I gained 200000 credits, and I’m still an Colonel, that stinks. Well, I know thats not entirely true, but if it was, i feel real sorry for the poor people who wanted to become inheritor.
So, I entirely agree with the OP, update the credits for daily challenges.
My firefight custom challenges work as this: 800 kills in 3 hours = 10000 credits. 400 headshots in 3 hours = 10000 credits. Set them up at the same time, once you get 400 headshots, make a new 400 headshot challenge, that way in 1 or 2 hours you make 30000 credits. Then look at this challenge - kill 1000 enemies on ONE map for 3000 credits.
15 wins in multiplayer, even if you win every game in grifball which is unlikely it is still a couple of hours. Assuming you don’t die of boredom first it can go on and on and on, and for just 300 credits more! If you mix it up you’re looking at 5 or more hours I think of MM, then if you want the weekly, that’s another 3 or 4 horus of FF. And then the campaign challenge. Clearly this challenge is for people who play 24/7.

Yep, I agree with your last thing…about it being for 24/7 people players…
…Not to mention the 2 hours it would take for you to try to get Holdout on the FF map selection while constantly selecting “none of the above”.
1000 kills would force you have to get the map around 8 or 9 times.
I’ll skip today thank you very much.
I so wish I was the daily challenge moderator, chose which ones went on and got to make a few of my own, that would be nice…Then I’d make one special one, may be tough, but would indefinitely be worth while…
Campain Mission Laso 3 of them within the week = 100000 CR would be nice. but that won’t ever happen.
I had planned to complete this yesterday when the dailies were MUCH easier, and I ran out of time. Today pretty much makes me cry. There’s no way I can squeeze in the required amount of Halo time between work and school (as much as I’d love to play all day!) I know not every day can be an easy set that you can complete through just a few matches in MM or FF, but this one is an unreasonable time-suck for normal players.
Anyone trying to rank up go ahead and add me. I strive for high paying daily/weekly/custom challenges. It’s been 8 days and I am half way through Noble. Averaging, idk 50,000 cr a day.
