After completing most of the challenges to earn packs from playing the recent gamemode, warzone firefight. I begun to get bored of the game as achieving REQ points was taking, what it felt like, forever. A good feature to add to halo 5 guardians multiplayer could be online weekly and daily challenges giving the players more chance at receiving some of the more rare items.
Even Halo Reach had Daily, Weekly, and Monthly challenges. It couldn’t hurt to have done the same thing in Halo 5 with its REQs. Like if you do the daily challenge, you could get a free silver pack. Do the weekly challenge, and you get 3 gold packs, and if you do the monthly, you get 10 gold packs. Not only would it give people an incentive to have more daily attendance, but it gives a goal for people to play more of warzone and WZFF, or even the Arena playlists. People like and want to use their REQs, but the system as it stands made it so that the cards are more valuable being sold off to buy more packs so it would reduce the temptation of actually buying the cards online with real money since they want to complete their collections.
Now this is coming from a person who has all the items in the game already (I virtually get back 6000 points back for every gold I put my points into), and when I get to actively open gold packs every other warzone game while also being able to use my more valuable cards, I feel like I can have fun using them instead of hoarding them all and waiting to sell them off, hoping to get that one REQ I probably don’t even need.
Right now, other than the Spartan Company goal towards Achilles, I don’t see much incentive for people to keep playing, and the REQs without a way of getting more in a timely fashion will make the game feel sluggish with its goals.
I’d like to see this for all game modes. I really enjoyed this feature in Halo 4 / Halo: REACH. It forced me to try playlists and game modes that I wouldn’t normally play, and made replayability / longevity better.
i want this to become a thing. its a great way to keep people engaged.
weekly challenge was op in reach… miss it haha
Great idea! I definitely miss something like that in this game. Would work well I think.
