Reach-like Challenges and Jackpot Weekends?

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

I played plenty of Halo: Reach. It did plenty of things right. Maybe not everything, but some things. A couple of things that kept me coming back were the Credit Jackpot Weekends and the Daily/Weekly/Monthly challenges. I’ve been thinking, if they were implemented right, they might have a place in Halo 5.
Here’s a short list of pros and cons that this kind of system could have.

Pros
-Campaign, Arena, and Warzone challenges would encourage people to branch out into each of the game modes.
-These would make the grind for rank and REQ packs a lot less grueling of a task, whether the reward is XP, RP, or standard REQ packs.
-Variety of challenges would encourage players to try new playstyles, and make gameplay less redunant.
-Different challenges could yield better rewards depending on the difficulty. For example, dailies could yield a Bronze pack, weeklies could yield a Silver pack, and monthlies could yield a Gold pack (just as examples).
Cons
-The challenge system could encourage boosting (which is virtually unavoidable).
-This could encourage a less “team-oriented” playstyle.

What do you, the rest of the community think? Could this be a good thing, or could it bring nothing but death and destruction to us all? Maybe both?

Agreed, daily and weekly challenges were nice!

I’d say campaign challenges would be a con. Never liked having to replay campaign each week in Reach.

Challenges would be awesome.

I like it and have been saying the same for some time now. We need challenges back.

I like the idea .
Although instead of rewarding with bronze silver and gold req packs , perhaps reward with something like 500xp for daily , 1000xp+500 REQ for weekly , and 2000XP + 1000REQ for monthly
Depending on difficulty of the challenges. Would want the reward to be worth the effort needed to be put in, but not too high that it is ridiculous.

I based my numbers off the commendation Xp of 1000 at level 5 and the win of the day at around 200REQ points.
While i feel commendation XP is set too low and thus the challenges would be a good way to allow people to progress through ranks faster
