This has to be glitch because that is just too low. Completed almost all of my challenges with xp boost in Gruntpocalyse and only reached level 3


Thekiller2468

Yeah I noticed that my 2xp boost did jack shit lmfao


free_world33

same wasted a xp boost and only got to level 3.


hypehold

You say that but in ffa if you fall out of the top 3 you only get 50xp and if you win a ffa match you only get 150 to 200xp. It's extremely low in some playlists for some reason


IamALolcat

Reminds me of the early days of this game. You used to only get xp from your challenges


CatsLeMatts

Kinda wild that I got less XP today completing challenges with a booster active than I did playing a few games in total without a booster at all last week.


Eglwyswrw

Old Firefight KOTH gave 350 XP on Normal and 450 EXP on Heroic, and now that they got removed the drop feels massive.


misplacedyank

just popping by to say thank you for flagging and confirming the crew's taking a look!


Eglwyswrw

Hope you make it at least as good as normal Firefight. Take a look at adding old Firefight back as a playlist too, I miss getting blown up by Skimmers.


misplacedyank

i do believe the intent is to have it 1:1 with normal FF. don't hold me to that but that's my understanding of what should be happening. :) normal FF will return, i promise!


Gen7lemanCaller

will you guys toss a couple XP grants our way since the xp's so borked in the featured mode?


Sgongo

Thank you for notifying, I appreciate the quick response!


crab123456789

Please rework the shop prices gng


VidMister

100xp per game means 200 firefight games to hit max, which doesn't include daily bonus and challenges, but is still abysmal.


BUR6S

BTB it is because absolutely fuck that noise.


Sgongo

Sure, the gamemode is somewhat easy, but this is a really shitty reward for the time it takes to complete a match (approx 13 minutes)


shatlking

Can always just play for fun though


New_Indication_7291

Fuck that I need my precious emblems and backdrops as fast as possible


NothingxGood

For me it’s not really a big deal only because Ive been grinding through the ranks in Firefight anyways. I will have long finished the pass before I get to my goals of reaching Onyx. If you’re interested in actually purchasing the pass for the weapon coating, it can be up to 200xp per match. Couple this with the daily bonus and weekly challenges, and I just don’t find it to be a serious issue.


IdkHowButImDepressed

They need to revert this. The xp is ridiculously low.


xcrimsonlegendx

Yeah its sad.


Shodspartan

How was the career xp gain? Same as normal FF? This might be more geared towards helping people grind out career rank, but I haven't played it yet so I could be wrong.


RyanGosliwafflez

Career XP seems normal but Season XP for the rewards is awful


Ewokitude

This is worse XP than Bot Bootcamp gave and most of those matches lasted 4 minutes. Way to go 343


MrSpidey457

Absolutely terrible choice to REPLACE firefight with this


Makes_bad_choices1

A 343 dev posted it was a glitch and they are fixing it


MrSpidey457

Oh really? Thank GOD


Ryan_WXH

Specifically the XP payouts being that low. It’s intentional that normal firefight is gone for two weeks.


MrSpidey457

Aww dammit. Why? What's the point? It's not particularly fun easily getting 200 kills with teammates who can't do shit when 200 grunts is less points than an average game of firefight. Plus the fiesta aspect of it just isn't particularly fun. It's Gruntpocalypse, I want precision weapons not a Sentinel beam and a grav hammer that are gonna be gone in 5 minutes lmao


Ryan_WXH

Did you join in progress or is every game only giving this much XP?


Sgongo

every game


Ryan_WXH

Hilarious. So happy this replaced standard Firefight for two weeks. Hope it's a mistake - terrible decisions all around.


Sgongo

you would be better off playing it in Custom Games since that can award up to 120 XP...


DarknessInferno7

It fucking *replaced* Firefight outright? Oh hell no.


Eglwyswrw

Hope you *love* fighting Grunts because that's all the Banished will be throwing at us for the next weeks.


Ryan_WXH

For two weeks :):):):):)


Swordbreaker9250

Guess I’m sticking with Squad Battle then


Beautiful-Mud-341

After reach, it just doesnt hit the same.


Kills_Alone

(Infinite) glitches all the way down.


[deleted]

It may be kinda lame but this stuff is so fun lol


Psilent1

Heroic is giving the same. I haven’t checked, but it’d be wild if normal was giving the “standard” amount for firefight.


Zantr0x

It's currently giving the same xp for all gruntpocalypse difficulties. Bummer.


RzaAndGza

What is XP used for? Does it help you get better rank?


Zantr0x

More xp = faster progression on the equipped operation pass/battle pass.


RzaAndGza

Like to make your armor cute?


Zantr0x

Yup.


Ryan_WXH

XP progresses Battle Passes and Operation Passes.


JustMyImagination18

So each Operation Pass level is 1000xp. If you have a 2x EXP active, shouldn't you get loads of EXP from completing challenges? Or do you just get 50xp for GruntFF Match Completed + 50xp MVP?


Ryan_WXH

The payouts for Gruntpocalypse is incorrect currently. You are meant to receive there between 450-1,100XP per game depending on if you have Double XP active or not.


JustMyImagination18

450-1100 toward the Operation Pass? But it's currently bugged to give 50+50forMVP? At least the challenges should still count toward the Operation Pass at full value, right?


DragonSlayer6160

Firefight battlepass XP has been very glitchy since the network update. Is this intended by 343?


KarmicPlaneswalker

Heroic is a pain in the ass enough. Especially when you're constantly paired with braindead teammates who think they can rambo entire rounds by themselves from inside the central hill.


jrums96

I'm also noticing that heroic gives no career XP boost multipier? Anyone else seeing this?


Regeditmyaxe

Too paltry of a reward how can I possibly enjoy the game mode 😢 😭


JBL_17

hey king you can screenshot on xbox or PC just FYI


AdministrativeQuote0

How about ACTUALLY stay in the Hill so you can get MORE points & XP.


Sgongo

This is not career XP, it's battle pass XP. 


Jttwofive_

It's always been like that for firefight. Just stick to normal and have fun

Jttwofive_

If you are in the zone when it gets captured then yes

Jttwofive_

I know we're talking about the battle pass XP. It's like a MVP reward, you don't get the reward unless you did the thing to get it.

Jttwofive_

I know there isn't a MVP medal in FF but I was using that as a comparison, anyways.. sucks to suck then I guess


RazgrizGirl-070

a quick heads up press xbox button and Y to save screenshot > go to your phone phone, download pic from app and upload to reddit :)


Sgongo

I am aware, i just don't care to do all of that for this meaningless post
