You’re taking these challenges too seriously. All of them can be done without focusing, with exception of certain weapons which you do need to focus on picking up. But the only thing that does is change your playstyle until you get the kills… I don’t understand the big deal, its called a challenge, and you have a week to do them.

You can get a lot of these in bot matches btw

I can appreciate if the challenges want you to play in a different way to change up your experience. However some challenges feel built to waste my time, like snipe a guy out of the air off of a gravity lift, Im sure I could do it, but it should give me a whole BP tier.

I agree to an extent. The challenges like get 5 kills with a disruptor totally cool, I can casually do that. However I have seen some challenges that are a real pain, like they want me to use a swap. I would appreciate if the harder challenges offered much more extravagant rewards. I also grind out my challenges in two days so that may be a me problem. They should make a challenge called pick up the Oddball, and hold it, for a minute. Boom challenges fixed!

Have you tried it on bots? The bots are Spartans. The wording of the challenges is sometimes not precise enough. MCC was the same way

Because its random, you also can’t capitalise on xp boosts. And if you are able to it’s either not done so safely or its done in such a way that is very limited and is only if you have the right challenges

It’s not helped by the fact that you can only focus on a maximum of 4 challenges at a time. So you may well win 3 total control games but you might do that challenge last and so you end up completing it 5 times.
It’s just utterly ridiculous that you can only do 4 at once. Exactly like you said, I focus just in challenges and it completely changes my priorities within a match. It’s beyond stupid.
I honestly question how someone can get a job working for 343i when they come up with stuff this moronic.

challenges like this, all of this. forcing to play a gamemode that you can’t choose, forcing you to use a weapon or vehicle that’re RANDOM. just… pisses me off. and when i do play good, and do whatever i please, i get scraps, jack as a reward. it actively feels i’m wasting my time unless i do EXACTLY what the game wants. i have no reason to return
and ya know what? if the game doesn’t care about me, then i don’t care right back. 20 gigs saved >_>

I was going to buy the battle pass. I was going to buy stuff instore like I did with the announcer pack in h5. But now, all I do is playing ranked because social is just unplayable with kids playing for challenges instead of winning. I get everyday a little less motivated playing the same 3 maps over and over again, beeing forced playing objective, having no clue how my overall stats are and if Im improving. Curve bullets, broken melee and steanfe nades do their rest.
All in all: infinite is slowly dying on me.
Awesome job, 343.

Probably a coincidence, but I have noticed that I do get a string of certain gametypes that are opposite of what kind of challenges I have. I don’t really go out of my way to complete them, but I’ll naturally complete the ones like “kill player with x weapon” from just playing and then I’ll see an oddball challenge in my list and will get a string of CTF and Stronghold games lol.

lol ya, in diamond 3 everyone has like 50-60% accuracy every game on controller and its difficult to throw peoples aim off by straffing/crouching because of AA and bullet magnetism.
Melee is super inconsistent. I already dislike the lunge aspect of it, but the lunge feels like it doesn’t work right half the time. Sometimes I’ll go for a melee and lunge from a mile away and other times I’ll be way closer and just melee the air apparently and never lunge.

It sounds like the challenges are challenging for you.
Imagine that

but they ain’t fun challenges. like ‘snipe the enemy out of a vehicle’ well i guess unless i have god tier aim on a moving target, on a very specific part of a vehicle, also assuming i can even grab the sniper rifle that everyone else will grab… woopde do
or the seemingly easy ones that the game seems to avoid giving you. like play x gamemode or kills with x weapon. 80% of the time i get the wrong game mode, because of randomness. or the wrong weapon spawns, again, because of randomness

Yea, I can understand the annoyance with getting mode specific challenges. But I get annoyed by people who complain about having to play objective game types as part of unlocking everything.
If you want to unlock all the stuff, you have to play all the game. It’s a pretty simple concept to me. (Not specific just to Infinite, I understand in Infinite you can’t unlock everything without $)
I think if 343 would give us a mini social matchmaking composer where we could opt into specific game types it would fix most people’s issues.

Challenges, levels, battlepass, don’t mean much to me.
I know they do for some people, don’t want to take away from them, but to me, the most important thing, is bringing back full collisions. This one issue ruins it for me, and drives me mental!
This is the most egregious decision they’ve made…

yeah, i get that too. if they want challenges towards getting the player to play the entire game, fine, whatever.
but the thing is… it’s seemingly ‘random’ what mode you get. or at least i gives you every other game mode but the one you want. it’s annoying…
oddly enough every past halo game has had a way for the player to choose the gamemode they want. so why the change in infinite?

If you are referring to me: I don’t mind playing objective… actually quite the opposite. But ina dedicated list, when I decide to play it. As for challenges and unlocking: I will NEVER play a match a certain way to fullfill a challenge when it jeopardizes the outcome of the match. Gettin 5 needler kills… who gives a -Yoink!-? Mak challenges that contributes to the game and I’ll gladly go for it. It’s called good game design…
I didn’t buy the Battlepass because most of tge stuff is behind a paywall anyway. So why waste 10 bucks? When it comes to cosmetics, i kinda don’t care how my spartan looks.
