Well thank god. Haven't seen the challenges myself yet but they seem to be absolutely horrible and encourage bad gameplay that is unfun for both sides.

for some reason the tweet isn't even showing it's just a huge ass line in the middle of the screen

Thank god, I was so happy to read this!

A lot of these challenges are just frustrating, pure luck and have nothing to do with actual skill or anything.

I'm so glad there is even a chance they gonna be changed.

Honestly, thank Law.

I didn't expect them to change anything in the first rift. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Just finished all the killer challenges. Hopefully most of these changes are for the survivor challenges.

As far as I'm concerned, they're listening - in fact they are changing Tome 3. Before Tome 3 release, no challenge needed to be changed, so there's that. I don't know what they have lied about, since, as you quote, some Tome 4 challenges are placeholders. Tome 3 sucks as well, but they didn't promise anything about it.

However, they still are not replying to my threads, so I guess I'll give them 1 star on Yelp or something.

I mean..... haha

My biggest hopes for this are:

Change the "2 unhooks in EGC" challenge, even if it just becomes "not in one trial."

Change "blind the killer while they're carrying someone." This is 2019, blinds while carrying JUST DON'T HAPPEN. I really don't want to be a useless teammate and suicide 16 times because I try for every pickup blind, and the killer then hates and tunnels me.

Change "15 basement hooks." It isn't hard, it isn't CHALLENGING, all it's doing is making every survivor match absolutely miserable.

Lower the amount of unhooks, maybe swap that node with a later one so EVERYONE isn't trying to do it all at once.

Increase the reward for challenges. These are longer and more difficult than the other two, and we're still seeing a pathetic reward in terms of fragments and bloodpoints.

This won't change the fact that the challenges promote bad gameplay, but it's better than nothin. At least now i can throw all my matches and it won't be for nothin.

I'm so thankful they are changing them. Thank you devs. Us solo survivors need to stand a chance of getting them complete!

Nice.

It's nice that they're fixing the challenges. My only problem is as stated before, why didn't they just listen to the feedback the first time? They're giving themselves more work. And does it really need a public outcry every damn time so that they move on to actually fix things?

The challenges should not feel like a grind. Grindy challenges for battle passes CAN work in other games when they allow you to take on more than one challenge at once. But that isn't the case here; you can make progress in only one challenge at a time.

As such, the challenges should be quick, less luck dependent, and promote you to try different perks and playstyles (but not at the expense of not actually trying to win the game aka "disturb 25 crows by walking between 2 crow spawn points the entire game").

A solid example was the This Is Not Happening, Botany Knowledge, and Dark Sense challenges. Not quite meta perks, but by re-introducing players to them some could come to the realization "hey, these perks aren't so bad". I also enjoyed making builds that would make me complete the challenges more efficiently; for example taking Bond, Better Together, and Prove Thyself with a Shroud offering for the Dark Sense challenge so other survivors aren't stealin muh gens.

I was lucky enough to get the two saves during end game collapse challenge done right now. 😭😭😭

These types of luck challenges should NOT be available whatsoever. Can't wait to see what they change it to.

The change is still going through, just later than originally planned, so that they can make sure it doesn't mess up people's challenges in which they've already gained progress.
