Honestly I’d love if they did packs of these kinda challenges, no item rewards, just add a bunch of simple challenges to levels, especially ones that could use more like Ambrose. Plus, its obviously less dev time to model new items, so you can do multiple at once.

I’d prefer if they instead did the best of both worlds and added the generic challenges to the game, but in the form of a challenge pack so that you still get a reward it just means every individual challenge doesnt need a reward
edit: adjusted challenge names and conditions slightly, plus added new challenges, if you prefer my old conditions and names or dont like the new challenges let me know (check the original lineup via the little pen next to my post)

Constant Vigilance
Mission: A Gilded Cage
Type: Assassination
Condition:
- Eliminate Claus Hugo Strandberg and Reza Zaydan with headshots from an unsilenced weapon while they are investigating a distraction
- Exit with a Silent Assassin rating
Reward: Decoy Bartoli 75R x3
The Decoy Bartoli is a distraction item. You start off the mission with 3 of them.
The game treats the Decoy exactly like a regular pistol, aka it is illegal to hold, can be spotted in frisks, but most importantly will be reported to guards if seen by a civilian and carried back to the weapons crate. The main difference with it and a regular gun is that it can be thrown like a coin. Imagine a situation where you’re trespassing and there’s a guard in your path. This would be a good way to get that guard out of the way without pacifying him and risking his body being found, killing him and losing SA, or getting out of cover.
I guess now that I’m thinking about it this is just exactly what happens with an explosive but whatever, I’m sure this idea still has some merit. Maybe you could make it undetectable during frisks

Pineapple Express
Mission: Freedom Fighters
Type: Feat
Condition: Eliminate 5 guards with one fragmentation grenade
Reward: Mk 2 Grenade
Just a reskinned frag grenade to look like a classic WW2 grenade. The challenge is called Pineapple Express because the Mk 2 grenade was nicknamed the Pineapple
Cold Shot
Mission: The Final Test
Type: Assassination
Condition: Eliminate 20 guards and Jasper Knight with a silenced pistol headshot while disguised as the KGB Officer
Reward: Luger P08
Bigger Bada Boom
Mission: End of an Era
Type: Assassination
Condition: Eliminate Hush, Imogen Royce, Sister Lei and Angus Pritchard with one explosion
Reward: ICA Adhesive Micro Remote Explosive
A micro remote explode that after thrown does not bounce when hitting a wall. Instead it will stick to it as if it were placed there by the player. I know this is probably not easy to code in, but imagine how good it would be to be able to throw one of these onto a ceiling you’d otherwise never be able to access, or even onto an object an NPC will pick up or an NPC’s body itself.
This challenge is a reference to the challenge Big Bada Boom in Chongqing, where you have to eliminate both targets with one explosion.
I also found out about this unused disguise that I think would be cool to have as a suit but I can’t think of any challenge for it, if anyone has an idea please post it
I’m just tired in general of all of the new challenges basically just coming out for maps like Mendoza, Whittleton Creek, Hokkaido and Sapienza. It’s not a big deal but I’d like some other maps to get some love too. Ideally every map should at least have one suit

Location: Player’s choice (but ideally one with lots of hidden routes and verticality, like Sapienza or New York and ofc many guards / checkpoints you need to get through).
Reward: Hidden Compartment Briefcase (cosmetic), +1500 XP
Description:
“A daisy chain of sneaky delivery work. 47 plays courier, but every drop just leads to a heavier secret. Can you smuggle it all under their noses without breaking disguise - or your back?”

I think adding new starting/exit points to already existing maps could be a great way to freshen them up a bit in general. Can start with moving Freelancer exclusive starts and exits to main missions, like the beach exit on Bangkok, or two new suit starts on Berlin. Unfortunately, unlocking a start or an exit sounds real boring on paper, so I can see devs or people in general not being great fans of this idea…
