Too many Jetpack Cargo timed challenges
Just please stop making all the daily challenges about this mode. It offers no variation whatsoever with the same map and its highly limited class choices, and it's by far the most annoying gamemode ...

EA Staff (Retired)Thanks for the feedback @ggibb65
It's definitely something that can be considered by our developers 🙂

@EA_Ataashi - Hi
Further to my prior post on the daily challenge subject, I have a prime example of a challenge which was totally ambiguous. See the screenshot below.
Not sure if you can read the challenge but it says Defeat 10 enemies around the payload ( What is the payload and what game?). I assumed that it referred to Extraction or Jetpack Cargo'
Away I went trying to get in to the relevant games and I can tell you after several hours of trying over different periods of day and night (even after midnight), I could not get a game ( again see the following screenshots) >
Says waiting for 9 players (10 minimum to start game).
As you can see, I am the only player in the lobby and I waited in vain for others to join but nothing happened.
In addition, I also at times received the message that a game could not be found. I gave up as I could get more points just playing my normal games instead of wasting time on this challenge.
I am sure other players have had this problem particularly with the smaller lobby games
My point in all this is that the challenges should be achievable in the time limits available and the only way to do this is to not make them mode specific. I think the whole system of daily challenges should be reviewed and maybe come up with another mechanism where bonus rewards could be earned.
Thanks for lending me your ear!!!
the jetpack cargo is a terrible game mode...just no substance
One challenge yesterday was 10 eliminations in Strike - tried many times to get a game in Strike but only came up with empty lobbies. Gave up!!
Another frustrating day with the daily challenges - Starfighter Assault and Chewbacca challenge were no go. Tried from 2:30 pm until 10 pm to get a game and only came up with empty lobbies or the screenshot below. Tried every game not just the ones for the challenges. Jagged a game in GA which was in it's final stages only to get the "Game Ended No Data Available " screen. Quit and restarted to correct that error - could not get another game in GA until after 10pm. To make matters worse, when I did get a game the team balance was terrible. All the better players were on the same side making most of the games very short. I played Arcade for most of the time. Very disappointing!!!!
