Quest board community challenge

i see everyone saying the challenge was poorly made but i bet you anything this was done on p[urpose popcap wants your money from coins and they wont get as much rev if they give away legendaries so of course the goal is gonna be unreachable and the quests limited to 48 hours still thats the point and giving what ive seen thus far aka 250k in 24 hours we will get the blue chest and wont even have a chance at a lengedary in the next 3 days we will be waaaaaaay behind 1.25m by quite a bit thats the point

this is popcap we are talking about people the ones that never give a damn about there op maps unbalanced character classes and broken game/servers they just want your money or let you spend months grinding for it

The thing which makes this Challenge stand out is the fact that a small percentage of super-active players cannot possibly make up for the players who just do the minimum to qualify to receive access to the Chests or those who play but don't participate by clearing Quests. This is the first one where a sizable number of players, if not all of them, must actively work towards the Community Challenge if it is to succeed, rather than simply picking at it a little bit and then sitting back for other players to pick up the slack so the payoff can be collected.

This definitely isn't a Challenge where Player A and Player B can both make the minimum of 100 Vanquishes and then sit back and relax while Player C and Player D both play like a madman and collect 1000 vanquishes each which makes up for the slack of the other two.

the you know what the problem to that is? bring up the minimum requirements! 2 quests isnt * it should have been at least a full quest board for both plants and zombies side excluding multiplayer quests cause not everyone likes or can play multiplayer that would have been a fair requirement to get a chest and make these types of lazy pos's actually participate or get nothing which is the way it should be you should get nothing for doing barely anything 

To address an issue brought up earlier in the thread:

Although I can't really be sure, I still think a large portion of players only achieve the minimum requirement before letting everyone else complete the rest of the challenge for them.

My suggestion is to make tiered requirements; each tier corresponding to a particular reward chest.

For example, it could take 2 personally completed quests for you to open the yellow chest once the community reaches that point, 5 quests to open the blue, and 10 to open the red.

I understand that many people play infrequently, or don't have time to spend hours ingame, but these requirements don't have to go overboard.

Besides, if you didn't spend that long participating in the community challenge, you don't deserve the higher rewards.

I just don't like the thought of people only completing 2 quests earning a legendary. A reward like that should require more effort than that. Having tiered rewards would encourage further participation, without completely disregarding those who aren't online that often.

Great.  I'm guessing the quests have refreshed, and now I can't log in to PS network.

Sigh.

again this is popcap we are talking about they never listen they only pretend to listen when it comes to rebalancing and even then you can tell thats half assed

Not going to be worth it at this stage! We need more quests or more time! 😬

Yay. I got the equivalent of a 40,000 sticker pack in the same amount of time that I could have earned hundreds of thousands from ops.

Hi, I am persevering with this post, which I have made four times over the weekend but it has been cut each time, perhaps now that it is to late to do they will let me say that: a solution would have been to give us an extra day, like they have done for an earlier community challenge. Would have been nice.
