    Ugh. Firefight challenges. What a shame.

      I don’t have a problem with Firefight, but I am SICK of assist challenges.

        Agreed. I think Bungie are easing off a little with the gripping and interesting challenges, so they’ll have a load stored up for the Christmas and New Year period when people will a) play less because they’re travelling/seeing families and friends, and b) get new games as presents – similar to the 16k weekly for Thanksgiving it’s about timing so you strike when it’s going to help you the most.

        I’m sick of the assist challenges as well.

        Matt, we can only hope that they get back to interesting challenges around the end of the year. I’m trying to stay away from Firefight, working on my MultiPlayer (primarily One Shot) and Campaign (non-glitched Flawless Cowboy) challenges.

        The Campaign and MultiPlayer are interesting and enthralling. Firefight gives so many cR as it is compared to Campaign, little point to challenges for it, too. In my opinion anyways.

    Oh sweet, I’ve been looking forward to a Firefight day, gives me extra motivation to work on the commendations for that mode, so there’s potential for a really good credit haul here. Is the 20,000 points total team score or individual (I’m assuming individual as team score of 20K is nothing…)

    • Matthew Vose says:

      It’s usually individual total, although do feedback if it’s for the team.

      If you can get yourself in something that allows you to vary your enemy types and weapon types, so you can work on all commendations equally. Yesterday I was in Sniperfight (which I loathe) and everyone dropped out so I got to have over 300 kills all to myself, and I grabbed a fuel rod cannon which gave me the heavy weapons commendation.

      • Braythor says:

        Yeah it was definitely individual. No problem with any of the challenges today though really, and it was a lot of fun; ended up doing a few rocket/sniper fights. The whole day’s challenges were nicely laid out, as I found myself getting a good haul of credits from a challenge in one game then being close enough to complete another challenge in the next. Got a decent amount from commendations too, particularly with rocketfight, so that added to the cR heap. Still hate Waterfront though…

    I got all of them but the assists in 3 games, so quit and played some Diablo 2 LOD!
