He’s got a point here…
When videogames were still sort of novel, we would play for hours just because we were having fun. Now we’re sort of jaded, and need to spice it up in other facets to keep ourselves engaged. And right now since there aren’t any “joke” modes aside from the brief taste of fiesta (Which felt pretty competitive because of the hard challenges) there’s not enough avenues to continuously have fun by changing up the pattern, so we resort to getting unlocks and changing appearance.
It’s a never-ending battle to stave-off the needless ADHD depression. Play a few matches, change your appearance, play a few more matches, change your appearance again, play a couple more matches, change your appearance one more time before going to bed at 1:00AM.
Get a hot GF tomorrow maybe. Right now is Spartan Fashion Show because why the f*ck not?
I agree, I’m done losing Objective Matches to a bunch of Slayer guzzlers
I’ll blame the player for the choices they make or do not make if it negatively affects the way players play the game 
If the player chooses a challenge over the objective, then that’s the player’s choice, and I will fault them 
Guess you didn’t read the whole thread lol the player chooses the challenge cause there’s an incentive, there’s no incentive to do the objective in every match, unless you have a challenge that says win said game mode, hell there’s no incentive to win a match aside from ranked unless you have a challenge to win games, the daily’s are to “play matches” doesn’t say “win matches” doesn’t say “play matches the right way” doesn’t say “play the objective” says “play match” soooooo technically I could rubber band my joystick for the same results, I technically played the match, my Spartan just happened to spin in a circle all match
So yes this is very much a 343 issue not a player issue lol if they incentivize winning/ performance you’ll see a lot more ppl playing objective lol
Also I’ll make this point again, if you want ppl to play the way “you want” then pay for their BP, pay for them to stay at home, their console, their controller, and then they’ll do exactly what you want them to do
I work everyday, I got a family and house to tend to, I got very limited time frames to play, so I play the game the way I need to play it to efficiently unlock stuff so I can then focus on ranked, by all means you wanna take care of my salary I’ll play with you and only you exactly how you want lol
The player chooses a challenge over the match objective that results in a negative experience for the rest of the team, that players has made a personal choice, and that choice was entirely within the player’s actions.
Just like it’s my choice to criticize their utterly selfish approach to my match.
Incentive doesn’t matter, coercion doesn’t matter, everyone has a choice to be a team player or be a negative sandbag in the community.
History has shown us repeatedly that even in the face of insubordination, humans still have a choice.
It’s time to stop pretending like they don’t.
Again like I said, are you paying for me to play?? If not then I’m playing for myself the way I need to, to me your all Randoms in my Quickplay match, I owe nothing to anybody other then maybe friendly talk in comms lol
If you think I owe you a random my limited time to play objective, when I paid for the battle pass and want to focus on progressing that then you are sadly mistaken my friend lol I’m strictly talking Quickplay, I don’t do challenges in ranked, cause in ranked I actually care about being a detriment yo my teammates
Then your choice to negatively impact my game will cause me to ridicule you.
All actions have consequences.
Sadly in this game there is no consequences in Quickplay, I can quit 20+ times and keep queuing till I get map I need for weapon or for vehicle, and there is no consequence for losing in Quickplay, and there’s no reward for winning lol so your also wrong there lol
If I have 0 win game challenges, then there is no reward for winning and no consequence for losing lol
I spent 3 hours quitting and queuing just to get the 1 fusion coil map or the 2 stalker rifle maps, 0 consequence for leaving countless times over and over, and when I got map I just ran for those 2 things I needed, I didn’t care if I lost match wanna know why?? Cause no consequence, still got my daily’s done by just finishing the match lol
I won’t deny that any players who are chasing down these challenges whilst being rather so detrimental to the rest of their team should be looked down upon, but I think that the developers of this game should take most of the blame for inadvertently encouraging players to act against the interest of other players with such a progression system that we have in place here. It’s just like how when you limit XP to match length or match completion instead of player performance, you’ll see things like AFK farming happen about too, which can be spotted back in Halo 5 as well.
The point is that I would never expect so many players to stop using these sorts of in-game exploits to ruin the game for other players through their own choices, so the easiest way for 343i to compensate for that is just by changing or overhauling the progression system.
Yikes you have issues, praying the banhammer catches up with your infractions.
The community doesn’t need that kind of behavior.
They just need to make Universal Challenges, what I mean by this, things that can be completed by anyone playing anything they want to play, without having to go against the game mode
Examples
Get X….
Assists
Mark Assists
Kills
Grenade kills
Melees
Doubles
Sprees
Wins ( just wins, not specific game mode wins)
BR/AR/Pistol Kills (Spawn Guns - Accessible yo everyone, don’t need to fight for power weapon for challenge)
You do these in every game mode period
Sadly I don’t, the playlists/spawns/maps are all RNG based
You need 10 Stalker Rifle Kills I’ll break it down for you
Only 2 Quickplay maps have this gun
Now you get map, it has 50/50 chance of being Stalker rifle or shock rifle, now you need to get 1 of 2 maps again
Need 5 Brute Chopper Kills - I’ll break down again so your brain understands
Only 2 maps I believe have vehicles in Quickplay
Now you have to get the map, and hope the stars align that the brute chopper spawns, if not now you gotta try to get 1 of 2 maps again
Always betray the teammate not playing objectives.
Shadow them. Put bullets into them when they are in a fight. And when they are killed. Clean up thier kill and get the credit. They are not gonna let you win the objective so I have no problem aiding them in losing thier objectives as well
Still a choice, doesn’t make your actions any less atrocious.
You can stop pretending like you’re the victim when you’re a willing participant.
Still holding out for that banhammer to set things straight.
It’s funny you say I’m pretending to be a victim, I had a problem and found a solution to said problem
Problem: Trash Challenges Solution: Quit till I get maps I need
Your the one on the complaining side spouting the “you guys aren’t playing the way I want you to play” so your the victim lol you just haven’t found your solution, I’ll give you the solution
Get some friends and queue with them lol
I agree…another big thing that’s frustrating is the lack of communication…when halo 2 came out damn near everyone had a mic…this game is so hugely dependent on teamwork that to join a game without a mic. Can be disastrous…the little warzone pointer thing that tells you someone is over there doesn’t do much good…so please, for the love of all that is good about halo. Use a mic. I’m not asking for pro call outs but if I get back whacked one more time I’m going to reach through the perps tv and return the actual back whack for playing pvp without a mic. End rant…ps halo’s back fools!! I love this game!
No, I don’t think I will.
Well, actually, I do play the objectives, but still, I reject this post on premise alone. You are expecting people to forego their objectives for the possibility of helping someone else with theirs? That’s just not how gaming, or humans, or reality works.
Furthermore, the problem is with the challenge design to begin with, so don’t shove the impetus for change onto the players. We’re all trying to complete challenges. Maybe they shouldn’t be designed in such a way that put them at odds with the objectives.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been annoyed more than once when a teammate clearly avoids picking up a flag that is about to reset because they know it can be used as bait, but still… your premise is absurd.
Your actions are vile
literally the actions 343 intended with their playlist options. 343 may not respect peoples time, but people are still allowed to value their own. devs said it themselvs. people dont want to play objective, they want slayer. thats why they deliberately chose not to include it. to make “the best halo they can” 
They didn’t choose to include it because the game is too rigid to be modified in its current state to accept it.
Someone didn’t read Ske7ch’s update
Doesn’t excuse player behavior
