Can you guys please think of more creative challenges?

these r worse than the halo reach challenges

Running Infinity solo Legendary w/Mythic Skull was going great. While one of the two 1st marines I met died, I gave the other my low-ammo Binary Rifle and he powered through everything with me to the other 4 marines...then I made the mistake of giving one of them a Rail Gun. DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID!! He proceeded to MURDER the rest of the marines, leaving me alone with him and the nigh unending waves of Promethean death squads...V_V

Thanks, but there really should be daily challenges for both campaign and Spartan Ops as well.

Ok so the one challenge is easy to get in 1 swat game. But you can't get 80 kills in one game unless you're boosting. To those whining about it being terrible, rubbish, needs A B and C let me remind you they don't have to give us ANY challenges at all. Then the challenges seems pretty good, no? It's not supposed to be an amazing get you to 50 instantly thing. It's just for slight pushes here and there each day/week/month. Think a little more before you complain.

To CTFD Felix: I believe it is not the XP reward that these people are complaining about, but rather the lack of diversity and the fact that you can finish a Weekly challenge in one game. I second their opinions since all of these Weekly challenges can be earned within a few hours of gameplay time. It's just disappointing, and we are sharing our disappointment in yet another lackluster Challenge set.

C T F D Felix, it does not say one game, it only states a "precision loadout weapon." Meaning any headshot weapon that you can get in a loadout.

And on a side note. We need better challenges. Game-type specific challenges are bad lately. Almost all of Regicides are impossible, King of the Hill was horrid with the instant respawning, and last weeks weekly challenge was completed in like 1 or two days. And I don't even play that much to begin with...

Wee need better variety, and much better campaign ones. For the time required, it's not worth the points at all.

There has got to be some sort of balance between 80 precision weapon kills in a week and 1000 kills on a firefight map that appears every 3 pregame lobbies (for a Reach daily).

You know there are monthly challenges now that are as hard as Halo Reach's weekly challenges. Since 343 added the monthly ones, i'm not surprised that the weekly challenges for halo 4 are easier. You also have a lot commendations to help you get xp.  

Done the MP, half way through the SO. Campaign mission tommorow. Thanks guys. Now kindly give me the rest of my specializations

You mean an uncapped account? Oh, then no 343 I don't.

Not really worth it for the amount of exp you get.

Yet again the challenges are disappointing.  The "win 9 matches in ______ playlist in one day" daily challenges are pathetically stupid.  There really needs to be more than 2 daily challenges in case we get more pathetically stupid and/or impossible challenges.

why is there only two challenge for S-Ops? isn't there like 6 of them the first two weeks?

Please bring back more of the Spartan Ops challenges.  I don't see why after the first 2 weeks, you dropped the challenges for completing the current episode on heroic or harder and the last chapter on legendary...  I'm still doing them all as they come, but the incentive to do so has gone down greatly.

Well, I completed the weekly challenge in one game.  Thanks for the free xp but that wasn't very fun or hard to get at all.  

I enjoy the campaign challenges. They take a fair amount of time because I'll usually bang off both in one mission, (solo legendary with whatever skull is needed). I do however miss the 6 Spartan ops weekly challenges that varied in difficulty. Finish _ chapter on episode _ solo on heroic or harder, and complete _ Episode on legendary, solo or co-op were awesome challenges. They actually took a bit of time and there was more incentive to do the spartan ops with friends. I don't mind the _ amount of wins on _ playlist, because it gets some more population in lesser played game types, but I think the spartan ops challenges need to be increased.

I agree with the spirit of this entire thread. The weekly challenges in campaign are too easy. The weekly challenges in spartan Ops are slightly better but still too easy and lack variety. Why are there no daily or monthly challenges for Ops or campaign. It doesn't seem fair that only online multiplayers have these challenges. I understand that the vast majority of players are multiplayers but, I don't like multiplayer. I just can't get into it. I prefer mission oriented gaming. I feel like I'm being penalized by not playing multiplayer. I really hope 343 listens to the few who prefer missions and chapters. I can't believe what I've read in other posts that some players are talking about the dissapointment of playing after reaching SR 70!!! I would have had to play OPs and campaign 24/7 since Halo 4 came out and I still don't know if I could reach SR 70! Come on 343, level the playing field.
