The weekly community challenge goal is set way too high. Cutting 30 and 60 million limbs is unrealistic because it gets repetitive fast, and most players will probably stop after cutting a hundred or so and move on to a different game. That’ll make it nearly impossible to reach the 60 million goal.
On one day exactly, we only hit 5 million, and if it keeps going like this, we’ll never reach it by a long shot. It would make more sense to lower the goal to around 15 and 30 million instead. That way, players would stay engaged and actually have a chance to complete it. I really don’t want to see backlash like in Dying Light 2 during the “Hunting Down Sergeant Ryan” and “Christmas Bulb Weapon” events
I just want to raise awareness about this issue.

Weekly Community Challenge Goal Is Too High
severe falcon
Not going towards a hate path but I mean it is set as community for reason. And we also have a week so I believe it's fair
glass geyser
I think maybe the 15 or 30 is more fair
Bc I mean at this point people are waiting for legend levels to even play again, or some dlc mission
Even the original had the bozak horde to play
Which then people were killing zombies just TRYING to complete it
grand void
Agreed! way 2 high to cut limbs off ,and I would like to se my personal score, lets make this fun and enjoyable events , ty

I mean we're already at 20.5 million limbs cut off, I imagine by the end off today we'll have passed the first goal, that gives us the rest of the week through thursday to cut off another 30 million limbs

How are they tracking progress? I don't see in my game that I have joined the event.
Why didn't they do the same as in Dying Light 2?

The game keeps track of certain statistics through data collection (probably as part of data they also collect for troubleshooting bugs) so they know exactly how many zombies have had limbs dismembered since the challenge began

Without a personal counter in the game, I think it's nonsense.
slow shadow
a personal counter isn't really necessary because it's a community challenge
obtuse rock
Possibly, I found out about the event two days later.
slow shadow
Yeah but the game main menu has a thing about the challenge to tell you its a thing. And all the socials talk about it too.

This community event is flawed

That's because there is no personal goal
Everyone has a "the rest will do" attitude

That's because there is no personal goal
I think that’s because reward is not good enough
I cut some legs and arms
Use 3 legendary weapon for it
And reward is a green axe 🤣

Ok speak for yourself I've cut thousands of limbs off and I have like 76 hours gam time 😭
Ive done my fair share
But i say we got the truck skin
Screw the other one
Doesn't even look different
And i think we're ready for legend levels

I'll answer you like this

suppose to be a challenge otherwise it would be named weekly community goal
gloomy pumice
Yeap
slow shadow
yeah but is it really a challenge if the second goal clearly isn't attainable? I'd initially thought that the weekend would give a decent boost and Saturday did, but Sunday was a lot slower
it's like challenging someone to make $500 in a week and then when they've done it on the 4th day go "okay now make $1,000,000"
when it take over half of the week just to hit the first goal, doubling that amount in a smaller amount of time is impossible
tame arch
I’m hoping they lower the goals for the next ones in response to the community engagement for this one, 60mil unfortunately felt like too much of a stretch

Pov: Me seeing next week's community challenge is 60 and 120 million limbs

I honestly think that since there isn’t a new game plus. A lot of players who finish the game within the first week of release don’t have the motivation to go out to farm zombies. At least I’ll be doing the event as a background thing while I play the game but I already beat the game so going around aimlessly chopping down zombies isn’t fun. I’m just stating how I feel and I’m pretty sure a good chuck of the community feels it too. Of course new game plus will change that. Back at DL1 I used to do my rounds of supply drops to get my legends level up daily. So when the update for new game plus and legends levels comes out. I expect a huge jump in participation when that update comes out.

They heard us complaining
you mean AWS heard your complaint? This was a major AWS outage
slow shadow
are we going conspiracy nut moon landing denier here? there was a massive AWS outage that took out like half the internet. it caused a bunch of dismemberments to not register on the counter
combine that with the fact that some methods were not counting/counting properly towards the counter(harvester, multiple limbs on the same zombie, etc) is where the 19m came from

Yes, it's a bit of a pity that we don't get the reward as soon as we complete the task, but that's fine! But this week the bar is not so high, and it was not difficult to complete the task!

We should at least get extra stuff luke last week
I mean we're at double the needed score

Extra stuff they don’t give us the 3rd docket for weeks 2 i think they change their mind

This week 6 community is too high craft items maybe the first we gonna lost
obtuse rock
What makes me doubt this event is that if you craft everything you can, does it count the 20 I make as 1 or as 20?
shadow current

Same doubt for me i craft 1 by 1 🤣
obtuse rock
uff man, making bandages one at a time, it took me 5 minutes to make 200. This is very clumsy.
I hope they check how they're counting because if they count “making many at the same time” as 1, we're dead.
shadow current
We need 5M per day so we are already dead, Hope the counting is not good 🤣

I can handle it 🤣 but for now it’s too easy or complety impossible like the first one we’ll see if counting is correct
If you know the first day you can’t have a chance, is not a challenge
