Better Challenge Rewards Ideas

[NoEasyDay]

I think it would be cool if challenges rewarded you with better benefits than a few ugly as sin outfits at the trapper. 

 

For example, remember in Red Dead Redemption when you could cheat at poker? Essentially you could 'pocket' certain cards and hang on to them to use in later hands. A cool reward for challenges would be unlocking this ability. 

 

They could add combat benefits for those associated challenges, such as more damage or faster shooting or so on. Hunting challenges could provide hunting related rewards; maybe the ability to sneak up on animals undetected a little better, or hunting related items last longer? 

 

Just a few thoughts I had when I considered the current rewards for challenges were kind of lame, and that I missed cheating like in the first game. Plus I love games that reward the player for completing challenges with better related abilities. 

 

Thoughts?

I could understand the cheating in poker feature but some some upgrades would make the game  too easy as a result. E.g. Increased damage could lead to you just one shotting most things with a chest shot. Having the items last longer could have been interesting.

If R* has plans for RDRO to at least attempt the longevity GTA:O has, I think it'd be great to see them reward long term play better.

 

Short term and some longer term things were good over there, but rank meant little past a point and with the early cheating, high ranks were often looked down on or accused so much. A combination of 'reasons' to play for ages or build up your character and R* doing their part to help too.

 

They should use the social club more to highlight things and name drop players (with permissions) if they hit high heights. They did for daily objectives to show crews/players that did the most consecutively. Stuff like that is helpful so feel.

I was more or less just throwing ideas around as examples. Faster reloads, more damage, etc could all have been used within reason.

 

One shotting everyone with a chest shot is not really within reason. You could do a little more damage without making it completely OP.

 

Still though, just ideas. I love games where you are rewarded with level ups and so on as it makes it more rewarding overall.
