I really hope halo infinite has challenges that aren’t easy to complete. They need to have exclusive items that ppl can show off for completing tough challenges.
I was really hoping that they’d have Monthly challenges that would reward generously for accomplishing hard feats. Think of Destiny’s Nightfall missions.
Very Rare Reward: (Ideas)
- Assassinations
- Armor Effects
- Armor
- Skins: Armor/Weapons/Vehicles
- Emblems/Service Cards
- Death Effects
- Custom Visors
What do you guys think? Should they have rare rewards for very hard challenges?
I don’t see why not. People get upset about it sometimes, but I think it’s cool to reward things that not everyone can or will do.
Gears 5 gives some really nice weapon skins to the top 1000 players each season in each ranked playlist. I think that’s a pretty cool reward. Their ranked system is based on score so people will be higher with more time played, less about skill.
Monthly challenges could be interesting. Depending on how difficult the challenges are, they could reward people with xp boost or credits to purchase things like coatings.
I hope to get lots of things like this to keep people around. I remember having friends get on destiny after the weekly reset like clockwork. This can help keep the community active.
Unrelated, the thing I would like to have most is a Legacy reward/achievement. Complete all mcc campaigns solo on legendary (including reach and ODST), completing H5 solo on Legendary, and completing Infinite solo on Legendary. This kind of dedication to the series should be rewarded, much like the SR152 reward in Infinite
we should get the LASO challenges from Reach back

I’m all for boosts and xp but for the hardest challenges I’d hope that those are just an added bonus. If only the top 1% couldnt complete a challenge then i’d really want that reward to be special. I just loved recon from halo 3 and the flaming helmet so I would really love to see somethings along those lines. Obviously i hope 343i still gives out special rewards for special feats.
Vidmasters or something akin towards such a difficult challenge.
Status rewards are the best. The ability to feel good when you flex a top 5% weapon skin, coating, armor piece, and other things is awesome.

I dont want anything remotely close to Achillies but otherwise? Sure, if you wanna bust your balls grinding for something why the heck not. Beats paying money for it.

I’m all for those too =] Vidmasters were really cool
As long as they know a difference between super grindy and difficulty
343 will need to strike a balance to keep everyone happy, easy, medium, hard, very hard challenges and reward accordingly.

I agree but I guess Monthly challenges would be something that they could cycle and make very difficult
As long is it’s fun and not a grind to do, I’m all for those kind of rewards. Loved the satisfaction of unlocking Recon in OG Halo 3.
I really would love to see some “gold” skins for like 1000 Headshots with the Sniper Rifle for example.
One problem with really rare rewards is that they need to design something that is going to be used by very little people - so they cannot invest too much resources into it. So for the most part, these will probably be coatings. Look at the Watchdog coatings for getting to 152 in Halo 5. It’s a nice coating but not worth the grind.
I think a nice solution to this problem could be Haunted Helmets. It should not be hard to make (just make the visor translucent and shove a skull asset in there) and they would be WAY more impactful as a cool reward than coatings. Imagine getting a Haunted Mark VII for getting to 152 instead. Or a Haunted Mark VI for completing the campaign LASO. Or a Haunted Pilot helmet for completing all Seasons in MCC. Etc. It is like finding really rear holographic cards to collect.

I like this idea. I think you could also throw flaming helmets in there with a variety of colors. Or back attachments? Recycle some of the cool assets from Halo 3 MCC and just update the textures? Maybe that is oversimplifying it, but would be cool nonetheless.
I think that’s a great idea! Incentive to do these super hard objectives would feel very worth the time I hope.

I’m all for special skin colors for things like you’ve listed above. Makes you go for them too
I love these types of challenges and really really hope that 343 includes these in infinite. LASO in mcc and 5 could give you a piece of a certain armor set, with each game completed. I think that would be an awesome idea!
I hate time gated stuff, it just makes playing the game feel like a chore.
