I got 13 of my kills in a 4 man group last night. So how is it a stupid challenge when it counts towards my total when I am playing with friends and playing the game? I'll wait for an answer.

These "kill based" challenges, and the "solo only" contests PGI puts out only encourages bad play.

This is supposed to be team play, so why the heck not have challenges be scored on NUMBER OF ASSISTS, instead of 20 kills, make it 100 assists? Instead of score only being counted when "solo" have the score count in both team and solo based play?

Every time you do one of these challenges, "team play" in the pug realm goes to absolute ****. People start shooting through teammates to try and steal a kill, or go all "rambozo" and try and kill 12 people all by themselves, or as bad, sit back for half the match while the rest of the team dies and then try and do a clean up run on the damaged enemy.

These challenges and contests need to ENCOURAGE team play in the community, not put it under temporary suspension. I'm tired of having my back cored out, or getting TK'd, or having to attempt to jerk my fire away from some ****** who decided it'd be a good idea to jump in front of me to get that cored Atlas in front of me.

Seriously, you have GOT to better on this...


Not assist only because people will die running to the enemy and swipe them all with lasers die and rinse / repeat. Maybe X Kills + Y Components + Z Assists with some type of combined score? It will make people work harder for it.

Yes, yes, THIS PARTICULAR challenge, you can complete in group. There's been a few, a very few, where that's true, BUT, they've also had quite a few contests where you COULD NOT be grouped in order to have your results count.

Don't tell me all of you have already forgotten all about those?
