guys can someone explain daily challenges to me?
I was was trying to get one called No Mercy. All I need to do is “finish one game of death match”. That’s all it says. I set up a custom deathmatch game against AI opponent 3x now. Even made it not custom and played for real. Challenge won’t unlock. Why is that? It doesn’t say to play a match made game…which I would understand to be online multiplayer. So shouldn’t skirmish work?
Help
Has to be match made against a human.
I don’t think dailies can be done in custom match. I do my challenges in playlist “Versus AI” you can find matches at decent pace since it’s cross-play.
Ahh. Ok thanks guys. I got the achievement. Can confirm must be done in matchmaking.

It should work in all gametypes now, including Skirmishes.
What leader did you play and how long did the game last? Going to investigate if it’s just an issue with “No Mercy” or over challenges as well.
If we’re going to talk about achievements can someone give me advice on the achievement “For a brick he flew pretty good!”? It’s where you have to kill 50 infantry units with the colossus “Stomp” ability. But by the time I get the ability everyone in the game has stopped using infantry, making it nearly impossible to get this achievement.

Play a game vs AI and Tech up asap.

You can unlock them in custom games as well. Might make it easier.

My game is still having trouble unlocking the ‘A Lot Extra’ achievement. The one where you complete all bonus objectives in the campaign. I have done that and it hasn’t unlocked. My Waypoint service record is unreliable for some reason. In game, it shows that I have completed all objectives for each mission. Any guidance on this?

I would suggest attempting the ones that waypoint shows you don’t have. If that doesn’t work PM me.

I just played 2 rounds of custom Skirmish against the AI. Once as Forge and the 2nd time as Cutter.
Deathmatch on Sentry map with custom options like No Fog of War, skulls on etc. The match lasted less than 3 minutes on both times. The Daily Challenge has not completed.
I have been able to do today’s other Daily Challenge “complete 3 Stronghold matches” in custom Skirmish against the AI (2 vs 2).

The matches must last longer than 3-5 minutes to be gain progress towards any challenges.

So does it need to last longer than 3 minutes or 5 minutes?

I think that what the all-mighty MeJordan is saying is that he doesn’t know, its just has to be longer than one of those times, to play it safe go for 5 minutes.

It should only be 3 minutes, but might as well go for 5 to be safe if you are not getting progress on the challenges.

wow okay, interesting, this might explain why I often have teammates quit right around the 4-5min mark when playing the Versus AI playlist.
They’re probably trying to get in their daily challenges as quick as possible.
fyi, I actually don’t mind when a teammate quits because it’s more fun/challenging to fight the AI 2v3

Yeah, that is very possible. Unfortunately there isn’t a whole lot we can do about people quitting early to farm challenges.
