After playing with the challenges a little bit this new system sucks and actually feels worse to me. It seems like some of them are stuck and forced to be in a certain category, even if you try to swap. Maybe I don’t want to complete or win ranked matches, but you’re going to force me to even after I use swaps? 343 is

Saw your update on reddit. I get how important the community as a whole is, but the way I see it, this is the halo that will bring everyone back together. It takes time, and the team is working hard. Is very visible to the rest of us. Thanks for the update, and thanks to the team for keeping at it. Am loving the game so far.

There’s a bug in which some UI elements are broken when I select one of the new playlist options.
Great update. Challenges are looking much better, and the added variety of playlists is much appreciated.

Summary
It’s great and all that individual playlists are finally here (to an extent), however holy cow this UI has got to go! I get what they were saying about the UI not being designed around multiple playlists, but with all due respect this is only their fault. I mean ffs Ranked is now all the way at the bottom. Obviously this isn’t the end of the world - and to the people who are just going to argue with me and say it’s not hard to just scroll down, save your argument for someone who actually cares about what you have to say - either way it’s just bad UI design.
As for these changes to Challenges, Idk if it’s a good or bad thing that changes can happen and I’m still genuinely mind-blown by the clear lack of thought behind them. Playlist-specific Challenges have been removed… only for more to be added in? What in the ffuck? And also ONLY Ranked gets this weird X2 XP event thing, yet Ranked still isn’t any fun to play because for some reason it seems to be excluded from having individual playlists. Like I said, my mind is genuinely blown.

Oh wait, never mind.
I mean hey, at least you listened!

This to me is such a huge barrier to enjoyment. Really grateful that Slayer folks have a place to go do their thing but, as someone who prefers Objective gametypes, I’m still stuck with either QP or BTB.
And since BTB is out of action for the most part at the moment, my only choice is QP. But if I want to level up my battle pass, I’m now being forced to play a whole bunch of Slayer across all these new playlists because QP Slayer games don’t count toward Team Slayer Challenges.
Not the end of the world but I’m definitely looking forward to the day where I don’t feel railroaded into a mode I don’t enjoy if I want to level up my Battle Pass.

I still find it strange, that thrown grenades and fired shots disappear when you die.

I’m not sure, but I think I’ve thrown a grenade, and it flew but didn’t do anything.
Also, I’ve gone around corners when being shot at and still died.
Played a match of SWAT (Tactical Showdown) on the map Launch Site. That was interesting. Seemed like most players crouched very slowly around the map and the game ended like 32 to 34. There isn’t even a radar so I didn’t get the point of crouching and played as usual in a ranked match.
Maybe I did it wrong ^^

Maybe they’re worried about the sound of footsteps?
I’m not sure if footsteps even make sound though.
