XP and Challenges

Can 343 please make a few more progression edits?

I’ve seen people just join the game and AFK for minutes at a time because the system itself needs a heck of a lot more work. I’ve also seen people just leave matches as they start.
We need to be able to matchmake for whatever game mode we want, just like in MCC. There’s no way you can justify having challenges that give you MORE XP than completing games, especially when they’re dependent on specific contexts that you can’t even choose because we don’t have our own MCC-like search function.

The challenges aren’t “hard”, but the problem with the content of the progression is the challenges force people to play suboptimally and lose the game. There needs to be substantial XP bonuses based on actually winning the game, along with making the challenges less “exclusive”.

For example, instead of just Commando kills (The weapon has random spawns in social play), why not something like “Kinetic kills”, “Battle Rifle OR Commando Kills”, “Headshots”? These sorts of things are less likely to push someone to go out of their way.

It’s definitely more important that they give battle pass XP for winning games, significant enough that people on my team stop throwing games, standing still, or leaving because it’s the “wrong mode”.

But I hope 343 looks at something like that as a good example. Trying to get kinetic kills is something all players do. There’s nobody who can honestly say “I’m trying to win” and “I exclusively use plasma only”.

Additionally, giving the choice between say BR or Commando gives some leeway, especially when sometimes the BR spawns and sometimes the Commando spawns. (in social)
