- @ManicMossie same, the sheer satisfaction of winning makes it all worth it
- @EA_Shepard I would have loved to play with you though, it would be so cool to play boss hunt with someone from EA
- @ForeverKnights I remember each time I won boss hunt, I felt like partying like it was 1999
- @hellishgother I love that reference, and to be honest I will want to party if Boss Hunts return.

@EA_Shepard @DeathBugg Dunno why write down "Community Challenge" as January and September. Community Challenge isn't a gamemode, it isn't something you enter through the mystery portal.
I think those modes could instead be filled some other modes that no longer appear such as Snack Attack.Also I feel like having most of the year be filled with Boss Hunts would be kinda jarring. Ideally the Mystery Portal should be restored to being weekly and possibly with a randomized rotation if possible, if not then let it have a variety of modes in the preset selection.
Another thing I would really like to suggest is if Tale of the Taco could be brought back as a yearly summer event. This event ran back in July 2019 and has never been brought back since but I think it would be a perfect fit for a yearly event. The event contained a decorated Backyard Battleground with a giant ice cream taco on the Town Hall and a special selection of Mystery Portal gamemodes that only appeared during this event. I think having this alongside the seasonal NPCs (for some reason all of them stopped appearing except the Halloween bat) would make the game so much more lively.

@JosephPopper1The idea I believe is just that the mode is just an old event that includes a community challenge meter as well this way achievements can still be earned. Many challenges coincided with the game modes so it shouldn't be hard to pull an old one for a month on the rotation.
They have the monthly rotation already on a set schedule so going back to a weekly one would probably be too much. The hunts also have achievements and cosmetics tied to them so I feel they need to be included even if they would take up 4 months of the year.
Tale of the taco being a summer event to change the backyard like lawn of doom or Feastivus would have been cool. Shame that only lawn of doom still gets the reward giver and actually spawns unique enemies in the backyard like the jack o coats. - @JosephPopper1 The thing is, there needs to be a community challenge, at least once, so the players can get the achievement.
Also there are 4 different boss hunts, meaning there needs to be 4 months dedicated each one, otherwise we can’t do all of them which would upset everyone because all the boss hunts are beloved, and all of them have individual hats that can only obtained through each of the 4 boss hunts.
Having the mystery portal opened more than once a month would be awesome but I don’t think EA is willing to do it. - stukapooka3 years agoLegend@VendetedFox This whole thing was about the no longer available achievements in the first place so despite everything else boss hunt, cats vs dinos, and atleast once community challenge must be the absolute top priority by the community to get back and since they're all connected to the mystery portal its the best one to shoot for.
- @stukapooka Agreed, as well as soil survivors and Capture the taco
- @JosephPopper1 It’s not jarring to me, but if it was I’d still prefer a jarring mystery portal rotation, than the current Insufferable, lifeless, boring mystery portal rotation that we have right now
