The single mission bounty is not a very good task.

    It's a good thing that I have doing Missions planned for today here in Adelaide


    But it doesn't mean that it should remain as a Daily task.


    Seems like it might have been a quick thing to do instead of defining, Hack 6 Different Portals.

    Brian Rose might have thought that was the same thing as a Mission which is also Hack 6 Different Portals in a Mission.

    The two are not the same

  • I haven't had a single-mission task in a week.

    Do you still get them?

  • joecainjoecain ✭✭✭✭✭

    I like the idea of bounties (it certainly gets me playing more), but I don't like mission ones.

    I got the single-mission bounty while I was traveling last week. It was trivial to complete, and I also got my souvenir mission for the trip. (I know, it's not as easy for everyone.)

    It would be nice if the reward is enough to incentivize completing a mission or a set of missions, like a KC, perhaps. Wouldn't risk it for a plain biscuit. Will just sit home and won't go out there because its too cold.

    Single mission is pretty easy. Do you know that you can create your own missions? Make one that's easy to do and finish it every time. Not sure why that's a big deal.

    So just redo your last mission. That's what I did today and nothing got messed up

    Doing a Mission appears to be a hack, instead of, Hack 6 different Portals.


    Doing a Mission as a Daily is the issue. Unless you are already planning to do Missions or have a quick 6 that can be done in a few minutes. It is less of an issue if we're a Weekly Bounty.

    Would be better if it is changed to, Hack 6 different Portals, leaving out Missions entirely for a Daily Bounty

    @Hosette Exactly, there are a few who want to keep their banners in order, and there are some with issues with missions in general. But it all boils down to making a choice, I want this so I'm not going to do that. Or I'm not willing/able to do this so I won't. Trying to have it all in a game requires a lot of effort, but that does not mean the game is flawed. It means it is challenging.

    A mission requires a minimum of 6 waypoints for newly submitted ones. That's about the same range as the 4 or 8 hack bounties. At least I think that's what they were trying to put as equivalent.

    I'm just going to use the mission bounty to work on part of a 6 mission banner. Have to break out of the comfort zone eventually or it's going to eat you in the end.

    @Grogyan There's nothing in Ingress that mandates that you do six missions... that's a personal preference. I think a minority of players (though perhaps a higher percentage of vocal players) have that preference. I regularly look at profiles and check out missions and most people have a random assortment of missions rather than stacks of banners.

    If that's your preference then it's easy enough to just not do that task, yes?

  • mortuusmortuus ✭✭✭✭✭

    Why should someone make low-effort missions just to pass a bounty u should be able to remove or switch for something else? makes no sense

  • grendelwulfgrendelwulf ✭✭✭✭✭

    Or you know, just do a mission. They are easy to make, easy to do. I have a bunch in a park near me. I just redo my last mission.

  • I'm simply not doing the mission tasks at the moment, because I'm halfway through a banner and it's a road trip to complete that banner. Same as I couldn't destroy 2 enemy links yesterday, as I wasn't going within 30km of any.

    Today is the 4th time I've gotten it, and the 4th time I'll be skipping it.

    Yesterday was the second time I've gotten it, and I've easily done a mission both times.

    I think that a better subject line for this discussion would have been, "The single mission bounty is not a very good task for some people".

  • Only redo the last mission of your last bannet works to. Already tested this myself.

    from niantics ingress channel:

    Agents, thank you for your feedback on the new Daily Bounties feature!


    We've been following various player discussions and the following adjustments have been made:

    - Removed "Complete 1 Mission"

    - Updated values for "Earn X Glyph Points"

  • GrogyanGrogyan ✭✭✭✭✭

    Good to see our feedback has been acknowledged and they have adjusted the Daily Bounties

  • VenomousToadVenomousToad ✭✭✭✭✭

    Nice to see them making it easier to complete these bounties. Although throwing in a difficult one from time to time could be fun too.
