Yeah the final squad deathmatch challenge is all luck-based. With no spawn timer and rounds lasting less than 8 minutes due to and insanely low kill limit of 50, you basically need the stars to align and be handed this challenge. Even though they reduced the squad wipe count to 2, it's still all luck-based.
You basically need to get lucky by getting your first squad wipe within the 2 minutes of the match, and then pray you'll either get lucky by nabbing that last kill within the 2 second window of an enemy team member respawning, or that some team won't have 4 players which increases your odds of getting a squad wipe when you get a kill.
Not brag, but to drive home my point, I average around 20-ish kills per match, have our squad come in first place 67% of the time, and after hours of attempting this, I still nothing to show for it. I know this is just a challenge for a game, but come on... make it make sense.
This challenge incentives you to leave matches early if I don't have your first squad wipe by the halfway point. This challenge, which feels like was written by AI, doesn't respect my time and effort, so I don't really want to waste my time by finishing matches that I already know won't result in me completing this challenge. They can either tweak the game mode or change the challenge. I dare a developer to live stream themselves completing this challenge and saying that this is reasonable. This was never tested, but that's already obvious.
Even having something like 5 or 6 double kills in a single match would make more sense. Having your teammate's squad wipes count towards progression and bumping the required squad wipes in a match to 3 or 4 would make even more sense. It would reward team play which is what this gamemode is all about. None of these proposals are handouts, but certainly achievable if you put the effort in. Only reason why you don't hear about this complaint as much is because not as many people play this game mode to begin with.
Nickdw2 is abosolutely right.
This SDM challenge is basically impossible. It's not skill, its total random.
You know the worst? we payed a buck for this game and they dont even gave us a official answear about this. They just did a code making the challenge with less numbers and didnt think anything else. SDM last challenge is literally broke. You shouldnt have to play 30 hours for a regular skin.
before someone says something, yeah, i want to do all the challenges, but this is totally broke.
