Alt+F4'd 12+ times looking for Strongholds.

[WhiteCrow]

Currently at 12, we'll see how many I can get up to before I load into Strongholds. This is hilariously bad. Normally I wouldn't care or would use a swap, but I have three challenges for it.

[WhiteCrow]

Up to 13 now. Great design they have here.

Edit: Up to 14. It's almost like they won't allow me to load into the mode considering I have 3 challenges for it. Interesting.

Edit 2: 15 Alt-F4's now. It's loading EVERY OTHER mode but Strongholds.

thats....wierd, as i was looking for slayer and got 3 SH and one OB before i found it...

[Legion]

have only got strongholds today

[WhiteCrow]

16 Alt-F4's. HOLY ♥♥♥♥ this is insane. What are the chances of this? If this is "random", I want to know what the statistical likelihood of this is, because right now I'm calling BS shenanigans.

Edit: 17 Alt-F4's. SEVENTEEN TIMES it did not load Strongholds. WTF IS THIS.

[WhiteCrow]

19 Alt-F4's. LET'S GO FOR 20 BABY!

What a ♥♥♥♥ system. Good lord.

Edit: You can't tell me this is random. There's no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ way. They want you to buy swaps. It WILL NOT load into this mode.

[Shep]

If you're really just trying to get XP that badly through challenges, you could've easily just played a few matches in the time it's taken you to search for a strongholds match.

Unless you really just want that one emblem that badly.

[WhiteCrow]

Nah, at this point I want to see how ridiculous this system is. How big the abject failure could potentially be.

[WhiteCrow]

Up to 22 times. Twenty-two times it did not load into the mode.

This game does not respect your time whatsoever. That was made obvious with this stupid Christmas "event". They have the audacity to ask players to login every day during the holidays. Utterly disgusting.

i will defend the current system, its only 1 match a day. unllike the other system where it was select challenges per week, this time its easy to get.
i would guess your like me and attempt to get as many done per-game as you can? yea, i get it, took 3 hours at one point just searching for oddball matches around the 2nd week.

annoying thread

[Cooperal]

You know, I'm pretty against leaving matches for something as petty as a challenge but when a system is so borked that it is impossible for a regular player to avoid those people, it's a game problem not a people problem. More power to you.

Absolute madlad. I have long suspected that there is some weighting going on with the challenges. Normally I would disavow leaving teams at a player disadvantage but I appreciate that you are doing this for science.

I quit out of the match before it loads all players and loads into the mode. You can see which match is loading if you hit Tab and check your profile. Hopefully I'm not screwing any matches up, but damn.

Edit: I gave up after the 25th try. Utterly stupid and ridiculous. It shouldn't be possible that can happen, but here we are.

It's not one per day. It's just that each day of the event, a thing unlocks which you can get by playing a match. I know this because I missed the first day and today I inadvertently got two unlocks with my first two matches.
