Players are digging into Halo Infinite's free-to-play multiplayer several weeks earlier than expected, and while it seems fans are enjoying 343 Industries' latest from a gameplay perspective, the game's battle pass progression is leaving something to be desired.
Halo Infinite doesn't reward battle pass XP from matches, medals, or performance. Instead, all progression is tied to completing daily and weekly challenges. While that sounds okay in theory, many of the game's weekly challenges are incredibly specific--such as killing an enemy Warthog or killing enemies with a specific type of weapon. While players can use challenge skips acquired in the Battle Pass (or purchased outright) to get new weekly challenges, there's still a chance of receiving a challenge even less appealing than the one players are already looking to get rid of. Completing all weekly challenges is also tied to receiving special cosmetic rewards, something that is frustrating when some challenges are far more annoying to complete than others.
The weekly challenges wouldn't be too big a deal if players could make steady progress through doing daily challenges, but that's not the case either. Daily challenges start easy and consist of playing a certain amount of matches for 100 XP, and the number of matches required goes up the more matches you play within a short amount of time. The first daily challenge will require only one match to be played, for example. Subsequent daily challenges will require completing more matches and reward slightly more XP, but without the option of playing against bots. And if a player continues to exhaust daily challenges, they'll eventually reach what 343 describes as "Stage Three" daily challenges, which will require players to win multiple multiplayer matches.
