Xbox One Challenges

Recommended Posts

So I've just downloaded the Xbox One Smartglass app, and it turns out you can take a sneak peak at the achievements and challenges for all games in their database already. Personally I'm quite interested (though a little fearful) about these new challenges, so I decided to check out what I'm up against.

 

In case anyone else is interested, here's all the ones I've managed to dig up! I'll list game titles in bold, then underneath, challenge title, followed by description, number of days when it starts or ends (as of posting this), and unlockable reward (if applicable) along with details of whether it's an in-game reward or some other form of reward. Also, I know some people (such as myself) might be miffed if they miss out on some in game content, so any games that unlock content through challenges I've put an asterisk beside for quicker scanning.

 

Enjoy :)

Games I haven't been able to find lists for:

 

All Apps

Halo: Spartan Assault

Killer Instinct Class

 

EDIT: Through a little bit of stalking I'm managing to find a few more...

 

Running out of room in this post though, so I'll link it. That'll also keep the date referencing accurate. There's lots yet I haven't managed to find, so if anyone can chime in, please do :). Also, I'm only bothering to put out achievements for apps, not games, x360a is already doing a mighty fine job of that. I've checked AC4 and it appears they are indeed identical, aside from a point difference I noticed in a couple achievements.

So does this mean Apps could technically affect your completion percentage even though the achievements are all worth 0G ?

 

Depends on whether you base your completion percentage on gamerscore or achievements. If the former, then no, it won't have an affect, if the latter, then certainly it will. x360a, TA, and every other achievement site I've checked uses achievement completion in their leaderboards (or as their main choice), but they do also all track gamerscore completion. Xbox.com doesn't seem to give precedence to one or the other.

So what exactly do you get if you complete challenges that do not have rewards? Just bragging rights?

 

As far as I know at this time, yes.

 

And an FYI guys, achievements seem to have rewards attached to them as well. Forza 5 looks to be a really good example, every single Forza 5 achievement seems to have an in-game reward attached (always Badge and Title), there's even several achievements (not challenges) with rewards but no point values.

So what EXACTLY do these challenges do for us?

 

Some give you in-game rewards.

 

Yup, that's partly why I posted the list. Wanted to give everyone an idea of the list, partly in case they want to attempt all launch challenges, and partly so they don't miss in game rewards they want. I managed to pop-in Dead Rising 3 in time to get my in game Horse Head so I'm happy :dance:

 

EDIT: Other than rewards, they just look pretty on your card, like achievements, minus the score.

Nice. I can't be bothered to work on challenges right now. Just enjoying the games and new achievements. And since they don't apply to completion percentages, I'm not too worried about missing them.

 

What bugs the hell out of me is how TA is tracking challenges like it tracks achievements (complete with completing challenges, guides, ratios, etc.). Really pointless and it is going to get messy as games have dozens to hundreds of challenges. Honestly, TA should just list what the challenges are, not track whether or not you have completed them. /rant

Nice! I probably won't bother going for them unless it's a super awesome game that I love (Witcher 3, Halo, Fallout, etc.)
