None of the challenges should ever guide a player away from playing the actual game. I have a challenge that requires me to blow up 15 installations in order to get a key. This is a ridiculous challenge. In order to complete this challenge I need to completely ignore any real objectives in a match and cruise around with a tank trying to find crap to blow up. Bullshit challenges shouldn't be rewarded keys. Keys should be rewarded for challenges directly related to winning a match such as getting kills/assists and hacking primary objectives.
Also, the turn radius and speed on the tanks in this game is bullshit! |

I tried hopping onto those things but my teammates would just hack all the installations before I could blow them up. I took down six installations in a match using a tank but that match was unbelievably boring. I am used to running straight into battle and doing everything I can to win the match, I am not used to bullshitting around for 10 to 20 minutes in a match accomplishing nothing worth a damn. |

Blowing up 1 is nothing. You don't have to divert focus from winning the match to blowing up installations in order to accomplish having to blow up just 1. When you have to blow up 15 winning the match no longer becomes the objective, the objective becomes seeing how many installations you can blow up in one match without going bankrupt because people with swarm launchers are blowing your ass up every two minutes. |

How do you think pilots feel when they have to hack objectives?
It sucks but it is what it is. Not all missions are meant to be completed. If you can, great. If not, oh well.

Wow! I didn't actually go bankrupt you jackass. I just said that to emphasize the amount of ISK at risk to accomplish something that will not help you or your teammates win the match. |

There are good reasons to kill turrets. You can clear the map of turrets in about 5 minutes and have well over 1k wp. |

This is true because challenges are supposed to force to give your 100% and make you advance in the game. For exemple in Clash of Clans (I'm not making any advertising, they're not the same type of game anyway), one of the goal is to win trophies. In that game, if you win 1250 tophies, you win 450 gems, wich you can use to buy stuff. It makes everybody try their best to win those trophies, since gems cost real money. I personaly think we should have more ways to win keys: - Win 1 match= 1 key - Hack 6 primary objectives= 3 keys - Kill 40 clones= 6 keys A total of 10 "free" keys a day would make everybody wanting to play. These are just suggestion, but they could make the game a way better and challenging. |

CCP wants to sell keys, not give away so many that no one need buy them.
CCP is a "for profit" business and I think some players forget that, though I am sure I don't know how.

It's easy if you have a proto rail and HAV normally, as any turret that the blueberries can't secure is dangerous and has to be eliminated anyways, same with supply depots or enemy CRUs between their spawn and the objective.
Otherwise yeah it's a PITA.
Personally I hate the "Get X assists" as that is the hardest for me, followed by Objective hacking.

Want to trade? You can have the Hack 17 Primary Objectives mission and I'll take the turret destruction mission~
Wish I could get those more often. At least they don't inspire mass rage like trying to hack objectives does.

Man to be honest with you if that game cost 70$, and you have the possibility to buy keys (faster) or win them (slower), I would buy it. Even if keys aren't free, why would "Blowing 15 installations" give me keys. Blowing those sh** over will not help my team.

Your inability to see the battlefield as a whole and your demeanor in general are huge deficits to being in any leadership position. Your lack of game knowledge and hostility to your obvious superiors suggests you should spend more time in the trenches. I'm guessing you are the guy crying on comms for reps or ammo, and complaining about how noone else is doing anything. It's funny because we just mute kids like you. |

You derive quite a bit of your self worth from DUST 514, don't you? Even your name suggests this.

I would also like to remind you that I am talking about the task of blowing up 15 installations, I am not talking about the use of installations in general. Having a challenge that involves blowing up 15 installations draws people away from actually participating in the match. Explain to me how blowing up 15 installations in representative to seeing the battlefield as a whole. |

Why not just try to understand instead of trying to prove you are correct? I will explain if you truly cannot fathom the basic uses of installations. Also if you want to squad up some time I can show you which ones are priorities. Easy ways to kill them and ones to keep up.
There are multiple threads concerning the destruction of turrets and reasons to do so. your only interest in them seems to stem from the inconvenience of having to destroy them to get a measly bonus toy for yourself.
Some understand the tactical value of various turret types and placement. The nuisances posed to my teams vehicles alone is grounds to destroy capture them. An uplink by a turret you want held. Scout games. Plenty of strategies involve destroying turrets first. |
