The entire end-user experience relies on completing challenges for XP and awards nothing based on performance or prowess.
We don’t need to be rewarded for every little thing, but the game doesn’t recognize achievement at all. That’s the problem.

Incredible. Someone in this forum that understands nuance. Yes that’s EXACTLY the problem. Currently there IS a reward for completing challenges. There is NO reward for winning games. This is why people are not playing objective and also why you can’t fault them for it

As I’ve said in many topics now, yeah there’s no incentive to win, especially if you have your weekly challenges done, you could literally sit around and do nothing but move every now and then and get your full reward for ‘playing a game’ if you have no weekly challenges to do, with that In mind I’m actually surprized I don’t see more players standing around, especially on pc where reporting people is a very hard thing to do.

A player has zero obligation to play the game for anyone but themself. There is no obligation for a player to change the way they play in order to satisfy another player. The selling point of Halo Infinite is completing the battlepass and that is what many players have decided to focus on. 343i has given next to zero incentive to play the objective as long as hyper specific challenges are the main source of progression. If you wish to find like-minded players who would prefer to exclusively play the Objective rather than grind battlepass XP, I’d suggest you find a pre-made fireteam to play with.

This is an objectively correct take

Exactly every player plays for themselves not for others… you need to give people a reason to work as a team, and with current challenges I don’t see that happening very soon. I’ve been complaining from the first day I’ve played mutli that there is No incentive to win a game, (my friend said It’s fun to win, but that doesn’t work for me.} everyone pretty much gets participation trophey’s and now those 'participation trophey’s are worth more when they changed the daily challenge give outs, which incentivises More Lone wolf play. By giving people more EXP from the dailies, even as limited as it is they have pushed people to not care about objectives but challenges, it also doesn’t help that the only way to get exp outside of buying it is do challenges.

again, ABSOLUTELY SELFISH GAMER TAKE.
Do you even hear yourself? ‘‘why would I hold it, ME MYSELF DON’T GET ANYTHING OUT OF IT?’’
OH I DON’T KNOW, FOR YOUR TEAM?? FOR THEIR CHALLENGES? WHAT THIS ENTIRE -Yoink!- POST IS ABOUT?
How can you be so absolutey oblivious to the people around you. Screw you and your narrow selfiesh mindset.
You are what is wrong in THE WORLD. Not just the game. You 100% have this mindset outside of Halo. Guaranteed.

You know what would have been nice? Having slayer-only and objective-only playlists! But apparently that’s impossible, nowadays.
Except it’s not, you should stay up to date with the dev updates. They’re coming in December
Except they never should have done this in the first place. Stop making excuses for dumb decisions on 343i’s part. Or in this case, intentionally bad decisions to maximize the monetization system.

Who cares about the team? I don’t think you understand how gaming in general works, Why do people play Metroid or other single player games? Are you telling me I shouldn’t play single player games because "it doesn’t help the team?

It’s not our fault some of us are getting challenges telling us to play ranked. (Not sure if anyone else got one of these, but I did and the after effects of that weren’t worth it. The hatred and toxicity were horrible and no casual should have to experience it.)

Yeah I agree totally people are copping out of the main reason for playing the matches and it totally sux to be losing because of one person who goes afk and another one just quitting or just walking around looking up at nothing just waiting to be killed by the other team.
Lmao. You’re weird AF if you play games for other people. I play games for myself and that’s it. I don’t owe any random online people anything. I’m happy to play objective when the game incentivizes me to do so.
You still haven’t answered my question though. What is halo infinite giving you personally for winning? Anything tangible?

The problem I see with this is that not everyone that plays this game uses this forum or any site to gather info from, and not everyone bought the battle pass so you are going to have a lot of players not caring about the objective.
Yes, it helps to suggest it on here, but IMO making a game based on the battle pass objectives has caused more issues than the game ever needed.
See, you feel “you need to get things done” and when players are not doing the objective it throws things off for you. The problem with that is, 343 conditioned you to think you need to get these things done, and for what, cosmetics that do absolutely nothing in this game but change your appearance?
It seems to me both you and 343 are the actual problem.

I won’t even humour you by giving that a proper response.
It’s stupid and you know it. You know EXACTLY what I mean.
Stop being like this and just be decent, for once in your life.
Your also not taking into consideration, the amount of time difference ppl have to play, You could be someone who gets to play 3hrs a Day, while someone else gets 1hr a Day
Do you understand the concept of Efficiency??
In this game it is more efficient to go for your challenges then it is to play objective, if I got an hour to play I’m going to be as efficient as possible
Ex: Quit/Requeue Quickplay till I get the “Map” I need, if it doesn’t have the Weapon I needed back into quit/requeue, if it does I’m running exclusively to get that weapon to even “progress” my challenge,
Kills with fusion coils, only 1 quick play map has it, if the stars align and finally put me on map, I gotta be as efficient as possible and focus fusion coils, if I get the kills, then I’ll play the rest of the match cause progress only gets secured for completing match not for winning
Doesn’t matter. You are complaining that we’re not getting Slayer and that it’s impossible to get.
I told you you were wrong, you just decided to cry extra.
Then it is clearly not for you. I’m sorry but you’re ruining the experience for others for your own gain. Absolutely stupid excuse.
Because I want to unlock the stuff they are offering that means it’s clearly not for me?? Lol what kinda comedian are you?? Lemme know your next venue so I can buy tickets lol
