You don't HAVE TO do them at all :S Half the challenges are "play a game as caustic" etc, just do the ones that have the least impact and play with friends who have the BP as well so you get the stacking xp boosts asap.

The BP content is woeful, just like the last one - but the complaints would be even worse if anyone who has more than 1 hour a week to play could do it in 3 weeks. I don't think the battlepass model is working for apex to be honest. They might get less complaints if they sold battlepasses that lasted 2 weeks and were 10x easier but its essentially the same thing. Garbage skins and fluff.

Keep the battle pass the way it was in Season 1.

Add the challenges.

Don't stop the level at 100 but keep going.

Give players a reward after level 100 lets say 50 crafting metals every 10 levels.

The level will go up nonstop for epeen purpose.

And that is still not perfect.

But its a whole lot better then doing ''Chores'' as @SethCurry is saying.

Becouse Daily quests is the most terrible thing in every game atm.

And since i payed for the BP. I kinda HAVE to do them.

@DaAceXD My challenges today had me landing slumlakes swamps and the pit to get a finisher kills and damage, got like 2 hours to play before leaving for work and it's wasted.

If they removed go to challenges and changed to get kills with this weapon it'd be ok, then I could jus play and do my challenges along the way.

@DaAceXD Get your money back if possible. There's no version of the BP that won't "force you" to do something :S It's supposed to be additional flavour and fluff to the gameplay, not replace it as the reason for playing.

    @cr41g1690The same people who say that it's too hard are EXACTLY the people who will call it a trash waste of money the second they finish it, unless there's a new one scheduled to be released the day after. I don't think the things being listed as problems can be overcome to the satisfaction of even 50% of the people making the complaints.
    The complaints of someone who values the BP stuff highly will just shift from "its too hard and I want it" to "Ive got it and there's nothing left to play for".
    Thats not the crowd the company should be tailoring the experience of the game to: this is why I think focussing on the BP for Respawn is a mistake.

  Ofc you have to do something for the BP.
  In season 1 it was just playing the game.
  I don't see why they changed that + adding additional ways to get it done.
  I don't think people complained about the BP being to easy.
  I think people complained about not having ANY endgame content.
  Now there is ranked and i think the majority does not care about BP levels's anymore.
  But they still want the BP rewards. Since they are unique.
  Read my OP, Thats my fix to the problem as it is now.
  And its not just my fix everybody that wants the BP done does it like that soon enough.
  And in that way i'm contributing to making apex a worse game. I understand. But i need my challenge done.
  And that is not going to happen if i do what my randoms in my team want to do. ( They are most likely also doing BP challenges for themselves. )

    It is trash when you can't even get out of level 1 because they never fix the netcode with the huge update season 2 came with. That's my feedback.
