#they should bring back weekly challenges, even if the prize is just tokens or a box

I completely agree, for a while the weekly was the only thing keeping me playing.

they will bring it back, they are just reworking it to make it better

jagged pike
#

Yes, but even if it's like two hundred tokens it would be nice to have at the moment, then one skin a month.

#

You know it’s cause they cant think of original skins right?

jagged pike
#

No? It's been like this for less than a year.

time flies, pretty sure it was 2018

Let me find the original message.

@white vortex @jagged pike

#

It was more than a year ago.

Why are there different dates? I joined around Christmas 2022,, and the challenge was actually weekly.

People were complaining about the weekly when it was free I think it shows us how we’re never really happy as a player base

I have seen no one complain about the weekly being free💀

#

I definitely have when the same weekly item came out that most people got already

#

And that they never added new items to the weekly

# jagged pike No? It's been like this for less than a year.

What’s your point? Promises were made to up the weekly to something more robust and were announced way before this. Like I said, 2019, but could have been even earlier. You joining late doesn’t mean issues like this didn’t exist before that.

I don’t think anyone cares tbh

#

Actually no I don’t care about bringing it back either

#

Plus this is rr discussions having an opinion isn’t unlawful bud

It was mostly complaining of repeat skins and challenges no one wants to do. Like who wants to do 5 games of Rec Rally or try and get 5 kills in Rec Royale when they are lucky to get 1 in games that have to be started with 6 - 16 people. Then, the reward for a repeat skin says "4 star box" but if you have all the 4 star boxes, you get some random consumable, like photo filters. Who wants to even attempt 3 out of 5 of those challenges for something so useless?

# gritty sky They could’ve just made it so the 4-star box is similar to how RR+ does it to wh...

I agree and have even discussed with the support team about that. Even if it was a 4 star consumable, like the cake, or maybe a chance for a bubbly, it would have felt more rewarding. But, to get a 1 star out of it, like 99 out of 100 times, it just didn't feel worth it. So, that is why they had such turn down on the weeklies. Why would anyone want to go through that grind for something they already have. They watched the numbers decline to the point that they said only 1% of the playerbase was even doing them. But, they said the system that was in place was not an easy fix. So, they just took down the chance of repeats and work manually on the new one once a month till they get a new system in place.

Tbh if they kept monthlies but made the reward like 1000 tokens, and then had a different way for getting item skins from challenges, I'd be pretty happy with that

yeah i think the challenges you have to do could also do with a rework so people can do them in public servers and by themselves without needing skill and can have fun doing them and instead of a 4 star box (enough of this and daily gift boxes it's not hard to imagine running out of 4 star items to get), here's the challenges i think should be added and i'll also list how i think they should be placed, and other details as well

the challenges:

  1. complete 15 rounds of paddleball (co-op)
    2.complete 10 rounds of showdown (co-op)
  2. get 5 hitstreaks [3 kills without dying in a row = 1 hitstreak] in showdown (co-op)
  3. complete 5 rounds of disc golf (solo)
  4. complete disc golf under par (solo and you can do either disc golf map)
  5. kill 40 enemies in crimson cauldron (solo)
  6. complete crimson cauldron (solo, co-op may be needed)
  7. kill 40 enemies in the rise of jumbotron (solo)
  8. complete the rise of jumbotron (solo, co-op may be needed)
  9. kill 40 enemies in the golden trophy (solo)
  10. complete the golden trophy (solo, co-op may be needed)
  11. complete 5 rounds of rec royale (co-op, also whether it counts as a round ending for you when you die or when the round ends can be debated on as i am unsure of best one)

the challenges required: at least 3 solo challenges (unless said challenges are numbers 11, 9, or 7), per weekly so you can solo getting the weekly without needing help
6 challenges are required

the reward: either a skin or (if it's when a new event is happening) a clothing item (based on the current event)

here's the fun part, you can do the weekly challenges even after getting the weekly challenge reward, and doing so will gift you with a random amount of tokens (10-70)

Daily challenges shouldn't give a random box, they should give a guaranteed 25 tokens minimum (preferably 100 but I'm sure rec room would be hesitant to give that much per day guaranteed), I literally don't touch them because I only get consumables since I have all the clothes under 5 stars

Weeklies should stay and if a new system is definitely being made for item skins to be obtained from challenges, without having to pay for it, then weekly challenges should be replaced with: A selection of three random 5 star items, if you already have one of the items, then you should have the choice of 1000 tokens minimum instead
If rec room really wanna be greedy with it, they could make it 4 stars, but there's honestly not a good way to get 5 stars without paying, which is just criminal tbh, they could make it a 4 star and two 5 stars, I'd be fine with that, but if you already have a 4 star and do one of these weeklies I'm proposing, you should have the option of 400 tokens minimum

Monthly challenges being added as a proper thing would be great, either giving a set amount of tokens every month or going with the challenges I suggested for weeklies, this may be a more pleasing option for rec room because then you'd only get 12,000 tokens if you do all the challenges across the whole year, and that's if you have one of the 5 stars that'd be offers in the challenges every single month of the year, which wouldn't be likely for most players

As a rule, any challenges should NEVER give consumables, unless they are consumables unique to the challenge (like the fire popcorn from the new player challenges), and you should never exclusively have a choice of consumables for things like daily, weekly, or monthly challenges, you should ALWAYS be offered tokens by the end of it if you aren't being offered a skin, or clothing item

There should be a group weekly‚ a 3 player weekly‚ a 2 player weekly‚ and a 1 player weekly and sometimes should be tokens

They NEED to bring it back. I used to work so hard to idk get 10 kills in a row in paintball and stuff but NOW the only reason I play is my friends do
