Halo 4 War Games daily challenges: 11-20-12

Okay, I think someone pulled a switcheroo here. I can see completing 9 War Games and MAYBE winning 4 Regicide, but not the other way around as we got it.

Is it me or are Halo 4’s challenges REALLY a challenge? For some they just aren’t worth the extra XP awarded. Srsly. if I win 9 Regicide matches in ONE day…how about a bonus of at least 4500XP? (500 extra for each win).

Whew, looks like I’ll just be playing normally today and not “challenging” myself to get these. It’s a bit disappointing too. When I compare these to Reach’s challenges, I almost never missed those ones and had fun trying for them. Halo 4’s challenges are a bit too tough some times and not worth the effort. I hope BS Angel takes a look at the data to see how many people are actually completing these challenges versus the number of players. That will hopefully help in relaxing the requirements to complete challenges.

Anyone else agree? Disagree?

Whew okay, today’s challenges are going to be just that a challenge. 4 killing sprees in one match? I’ve got that in Halo 4 already, but only twice. This one is not so easy.

The next one…uh again with the Regicide…win three matches. Playing the gametype no problem, winning three? That will take a little effort. I’ve already completed the weekly challenge, so I’ll pass on this second one.

I hope next week’s challenges don’t involve Regicide. While it’s fun to play, I think I’ve played enough of it this past week to last for awhile. If the challenges are going to be based on objective gametypes, I’d rather see CTF, then possibly Oddball. My guess though since Regicide is one of 343’s new gametypes, that we’ll see some challenges having to do with Dominion or Extraction to get more people playing in those playlists.

To be honest, I haven’t played any Extraction games, so that might be a good thing to try out.

Whew, got a bit off topic….LOL.

15 Precision weapon kills, easy enough. Doesn’t say in one game, so that should be very easy to do over the course of the day.

Okay but that second one….We get it 343, you want us to play Regicide. I like the game type. But 10 in ONE match? Come on really? Of all the friends I game with, in the last week I think there’s only been ONE of them who got 10 in one match. And we’re not talking NOOBS here. Some of these guys are REALLY good at the game, almost MLG level…10 in one game? That’s a bit excessive, don’tcha think? Drop this to 8 and then more people could get it. Those extra two really are a be-otch to get.

Okay first one, good to go. It doesn’t say 15 in one match. Hopefully that holds up since I almost never use an automatic weapon with exception to the Needler.

More Regicides huh? Okay. But 10 in one match? Yikes. I’m King much of the time when I go in by myself, though this one may be tough. XP is good though, so I’ll try a bit.
