I know you meant Pulse Carbine, but don’t insult the Plasma Rifle like that. That gun would have been an absolute beauty in this game 
That’s great and all until you get a team of nubs that all go 3-15 and never play the objective.
The problem with the challenge system that I think both of you are hinting at is how essential it is. Right now, it is the primary way to progress the battlepass at a relatively quick rate, but it is also one of the only ways to get free unlocks. The BP hardly rewards any and takes weeks to unlock even the most basic items, and then the events (which are limited time) require the completion of challenges to progress.
The time gate combined with only being able to progress 3-4 at a time is what’s killing this thing. Until they make challenges a secondary option to progress, this system won’t stop being a problem.
So I could get a few AR kills and not have them count towards the challenge because our team lost? This would make the already frustrating challenge system even worse in my opinion, sorry
its called a challenge. we play these games to challenge ourselves, not for mind numbing activities. imagine a challenge where you need 5 ar kills in winning matches compared to 15 ar kills in any match. Both can be completed in a similar time frame but which feels more rewarding while also keeping matches balanced?
Yes, but there’s twenty of these challenges to clear before you even activate the ultimate. I just think it would be better to go down the route of cumulative score challenges (which encourage getting kills and playing the objective) rather than adding a mechanic like this.
cumulative score is good too. I dont see a problem with winning matches with x weapon challenges though. i would class it as tough though but i think people would like actual challenges while having to also win. only in arena though. i wouldd hate a challenge being told to win btb while getting ccertain weapon kills since btb feels like a lottery to get a win
Annd, we need to get backsmacks in tac slayer…joy
Yes, i have that one too. And multiple ones where i have to end killing sprees. Although that is easier then in Fiesta ofcourse, it’s still promoting bad play… Oh boy, 343 just doesn’t learn!

They don’t want to learn, like others have said, the system is built to try to get you to spend money
It’s a challenge in name only. They could have just called them “Tasks” or “Chores” or “The To-do List”. Whatever. Point is, they don’t have to be this annoying to complete.
