Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Recently, I have noticed that 343 has been being extremely lazy with the challenges.

The first one I noticed was when they had the challenge for winning 12 MP matches in one day. It gave you 10k credits.

A couple days later they had the same challenge, except it changed to 15 victories and it only gave 3-4k credits.

Then today they have a challenge called "Fourth Horseman" which has nothing to do with 4.

If they are this lazy in administering simple challenges, how bad will Halo 4 turn out?

Note: I am posting this here instead of the 343 forums because I don't really want banned from there for posting civil criticizm.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Is this a serious thread?

The fourth horseman used to be 4 double kills. 343 are reusing old ones cause they don't want to make new ones. Right now there working hard on halo 4, plus halo was made by bungie not 343 so of course it would be a little quirky.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

May I suggest reading the challenge description?

So you don't have to look it up:

From the Challenge Page:
Fourth Horseman

Earn 5 multikills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game.


And, yes, this is a serious thread. If they can't even properly manage something as simple as updating challenges, how can they be trusted to create a brand new game?

I'm sorry.

I never cared for silly cR's in Reach so it won't affect me with what 343 is dong in Reach. Hopefully they won't use cR's in halo 4.

  • 01.27.2012 8:10 PM PDT

Boltshot = mini shotgun

They created Anniversary and the TU. I really don't think they care about challenges right now when they're trying to finish Halo 4.

For The Lulz is a worthier cause than For The Win.

From the skies to the ground, I'm the one that'll reign destruction down on you from behind the wheel and the flight stick. Keep your eyes on the rear view mirror, or you may be eating exhaust aside the road, riddled with holes.

My sniper is hungry for souls.

If at first you fail, fail again so that you succeed by wrapping your fail around the continuum into the win zone.

The cR system is one of Reach's deepest flaws.

I would hate to see it return in H4. Then we'd have the cycle start all over again and everyone would be boosting for their ranks and drooling over armor like they were pin-ups.

the op reasonings may be stupid but I actually agree the fact that the way they have handled everything about reach since getting has been average at best does not look good for 4

Today is a good day to be a Spartan

The only thing you got right was your title....

343's management of Reach does NOT bode well for Halo 4!

you really care about challenges and what they are or how often they appear.....pal there are far more thing wrong about 343 than that, and we are the ones suffering for since they've taken the helm.

The future about this franchise, becomes clearer and clearer every single day, and you don't need to be a clairvoyant or have a magical crystal ball to see what is going to happen with the next installment.

They have all of this equipment to develop games and what not. How hard do you think it could be to set up an automated system that generates 4 random challenges from a long list that was created for the game. Doing it manually when you could have a computer do it is just redundant. Also, yes i know that every Thursday we only get FF challenges, but that can be set up and computerized as well. It really isn't that hard to do.

use your brain.
