Weekly Ultimate Challenge (Fiesta Killjoy)

This has to be the most mind bendingly, brain damaged challenge yet. I’ve already had it twice this week and I’m not even into the ultimate.

I hope whoever came up with this challenge has their purplehead fall off

Honesty, how hard were they hitting the crack pipe to consider this to be good

It’s a pathetic trick. It’s straight bs. They need to fix this and give us all the skin because that’s dirty or someone at 343 is just dumb. Next week will be “Shoot 25 enemies behind you through the wall while your eyes are closed while being shot in the left arm with a skewer all in one match”

I don’t think anyone will dispute that to be fair.

Regular sprees aren’t shown in the kill feed, only frenzies and higher. Which makes it even more difficult because I have to basically count cards and keep track of my opponents progression.

I usually get killjoys in feista all the time but thats because I get ahold of the engery sword or gravity hammer. Other than in every game I have played since that challenge most people I play against have been using aimbot to ensure they complete the challenge

These challenges are built this way specifically to encourage players to buy challenge swaps. It is shady as hell.

Normal challenges too hard > Buy boost > Get to last challenge > its too hard > you buy more boosts next time so you can speed through the normal challenges and get to the long and hard one faster.

It’s a ridiculous ‘challenge’. It’s not a challenge at all - it’s pure luck and encourages losing the game. I’m sat at 1/3 currently after several hours playing this weekend.

Edit: About 20 seconds after posting this I got my second one!

If you can take out a scorpion chances are the drivers on a killing spree unless they’re really bad at the game. Got 2 out of the 3 that way

This is a really poor challenge. Classic 343 grind fest.

Challenges should only be based off factors you can control and shouldn’t promote throwing the game.

They also shouldn’t be the sole progression system in the game, but I’m not going to hold my breath.

I agree it’s the most frustrating and stupid challenge I’ve seen. When it’s out of your control you have no idea if you can even finish the challenge in the time given it’s make my blood boil :joy:

It took me 24 games of fiesta to do the ultimate yesterday.

Honestly, this was the most un fun ive had playing a video game in a long time.

I hope whoever came up with this challenge has a pillow that always smells of farts no matter how many times its been through the wash.

Killing Sprees don’t show up in the kill feed, you’re literally looking for something that doesn’t exist.

Just look at the scoreboard for players who haven’t had their deaths go up in a while & kill them.

I got this weekly capstone challenge done in my first game of unlocking the challenge.
Play smart and you’ll make progress, this ain’t something that is going to be done super easy but it’s far from being extremely difficult.

Play smarter, not harder.

This challenge is so bs. Why can’t it be killing sprees??? I get like 5 times as many sprees as I get killjoys, who designed this luck based sh it fest?

Please let us be in control of the challenges why should I pull my punch’s and just let the enemies get a killing spree? Odds are my team mates shuts them down before me anyway

Just got the other day after I had a string of disastrous games. :smile:

Yeah this is pure BS. Had numerous games where a ‘team mate’ is clearly throwing kills or AFK only to suddenly wake up and kill someone on a spree. Way to deliberate ruin your own game 343.
I hope whoever designed this challenge burns every meal they ever cook.
Will never attempt to clear another set of weekly challenges without reading what the final challenge is again, this is literally abuse of your free time and absolutely toxic as hell.

I am in full agreement

343 please hear us - my personal experience with this challenge has been nothing but frustration. I am at 2/3 killjoys after approximately 35 games of Fiesta. The only challenge for me is having the mental fortitude to stay the course and complete it, as any ‘fun’ I may have had trying to do it has long since expired.

Please don’t make the ultimate challenge based on pure luck, it frustrates the heck out of everyone!!!

I just completed mine. It took me about 5 hours, and that was even with me trying to feed the enemy team kills. I started off just playing normally but I quickly realized that if I keep killed the enemies then they won’t get a killing spree. So I essentially threw every game after that trying to get the enemies to get on a killing spree but my teammates would just keep killing em (how dare they?). This is without a doubt the worst challenge 343 has ever given us and it only further solidifies my belief that challenge only xp was the worst decision they could have ever made. Halo Infinite is really a good game at its core, but it’s developers seem to have no love or passion for the game with how slow they’ve been pumping out content and how greedy they’ve been with the shop and ridiculous challenges forcing you to use challenge swaps. After getting this AR skin, I think im done playing Infinite until May, and hopefully the game will be in a much better state.
