This is seriously laughable. Why can’t we progress at our O.W.N pace?! Why are we being held back by a horrible “challenge system” and a joke for a xp progression system? I’m honestly so baffled at this decision its like they want to stifle their own game and push people away due to greed and anti consumerism

Summary
this is a bad idea that sits on top of a bad system. so if you play for more than 30 minutes a day you’re wasting your time? This still feels like a giant “F### YOU” to anyone that actually likes halo.
It’s better than what we have. Honestly, I hope they’re going to introduce a system that works alongside or replaces the challenge system. But something like that would take time. If they can make changes before then which make things a little more bearable, I’d accept that. I just don’t want this to be the end all solution.
Yeah, this is a mess.
Only positive thing I can think of is that we’ll be more quickly done with completing the mess of the Battle Pass. But will it be enjoyable? Most definitely not.
It seems like they just want us to be done with progressing the battle pass as soon as possible and then what… Could we then get actual good matches where people focus on objective rather than doing challenges all day long or AFKing? Probably…
At least then everyone would play just for fun when there’s nothing to gain. Or the player base drastically drops.
Why can’t they just make the progression enjoyable and actually rewarding.
How hard is it to just give a consistent 150 or 200 xp per game for the day. It’s not like artificially slowing our progression through the battle pass is helping them since it’s purely cosmetics.
Increasing the base XP per game alone wouldn’t be much of a change and still would pose same numerous problems what the forums have been trying to bring up.
For starters they should have simply made this XP increase based on whether players win matches.
So for winning the first match you would gain the first win of the day XP along with the base XP which is 50xp currently. This way there would be more incentive to at least try to win the matches.
But of course the true system should be more based on performance and medals during the match. Not sure will we see this until closer to the end of season 1 
So you want a 6 month BP to be cleared in 500 matches? It’s been 2 weeks and I have 170 matches playing casually with a tiny bit of ranked

Although it’s not really a 6 month bp it’s still a 100 tier bp that any other game has used and even 343 extended the season. This is just prolonging it. I can complete 100 tiers in 2 weeks tops at my OWN pace if I wasn’t capped like I am here. Whereas in other games I can complete the bp and keep playing
I wasn’t aware this BP prevented you from playing? 
I know what your point is
BP’s are something to do and it should be noted that there is no level system outside of BP, which is a nice change of pace. So besides adding more levels and stuff to the BP, I would figure having a Medal Wall might make those end game medal summaries more impactful to “progression”
(I started thinking of Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune, when you get collect a bunch of trophies from doing a poo-ton of event/story misisons or a poo-ton of stars for battling other players. Like a shot of your spartan, Spartan ID above it, and the rest of the screen is just filled with medals unlocked and number of times earned etc. Then maybe a thingy showing BP stats of some sort.)
