    Not happy about the new challenges! (Wink! Wink!)

    So. like many of you, I've been working out at the Sam Spade gym getting ready for the next Sam Spade challenge. I practiced taking out choppers with my bare hands, just in case. I practiced carrying the bomb truck on my back and throwing it into the gorge, just in case. I practiced doing the whole mission in prone mode, just in case. I practiced killing the roving guards with one bullet, just in case. I practiced taking out all snipers with only C4, just in case. And so many more things, just in case. Like you, I did it all, just in case!

    ... but lo and behold, they turned their backs on Sam Spade this week! I'm not happy!

    ... or am I?

    For me, the reward in this week's challenge is not the paint job, but comes from the challenge where you need to take down production bosses with a pistol from a distance. It's harder to get to Madre Coca carrying her big *** El Baston (The Club!) coming out to face you (which is actually pretty funny), so I leave her be. The beauty and sweet Karma comes in being able to take out Marcus Jensen not once but four times! It was something I wanted to do in regular story mode, but was bummed when we couldn't. There are characters in games and TV shows and movies that get under your skin. This guy was one of them. What a pompous *****!

    For that opportunity alone, I thank you for this week's challenges, and can forgive you for turning your back on Sam Spade!

    Train harder. In the upcoming challenge, you have to kill all roving guards at four per round... and if only three remain, you fail your objective.

    Agreed. Too bad you couldn't chum the shoreline with Sonrisa in Narco Road. I burned him as El Invisible the second I met him on the dock. It would have saved unnecessary time and other resources.

    Incorrect. In the upcoming challenge, in solo, you have to Sync Shot those 4 roving guards after AI team mates have been disabled through the options menu.

    I guess this is why they are called challenges but ... whomever is coming out with this challenges must have a whole bunch of trophies as the King of Cheesiest Challenges Ever.

    I vote he takes a break and let someone else have a chance, I am sure it will be better.

    They did do that in the first year. They asked for challenge suggestions from the forum and put several in that came from here.

    They should consider doing that again, and again, and, well... you know

    i remember that and i think was the best year of challenges, never had to repeat a challenge, the players where very creative, they should bring back that option and let the community give them some help with that mater

    Just think what kind of a game we could have had if they only listen to half the feedback given for the game even 2 to 3 years before launch.
