Hey Everyone,
We've awarded Tier I badges and 500 XP for all enlisted PS3 clans of 8/23's cancelled On Point Weekly Clan Challenge Beta. Our apologies for the inconvenience.
Thank you to everyone for your continued feedback and participation. We've been receiving an overwhelming response that helps us improve the feature further everyday so make sure your voice is heard in our Clan Challenge Feedback Form.

its great to have the clan challenges. BUT we are finding them too easy, how about adding more levels to earn more XP
I do agree BUT, it is in beta mode. Im sure they want to get whatever kinks out and make sure it runs smoothly first. Im sure the requirements for medals and such will be greatly increased in the future.
Thanks for your feedback. We'll be adjusting Tier awards throughout the lifecycle of the feature based off of player behavior.

The PHOENIX FIRE clan thank you for your generousity and look forward to seeing the Clan Challenges fully released. They are a lot of fun ![]()
Will we get to sample the weekly Challenges during the beta?
Yes, sir. We've done a few Weekly Clan Challenges so far and will continue to do more in the near future.

Thanks for the great news! Can we get more daily/weekly challenges please.
Make some tougher ones that give out a lot more XP please! nice to see these up and running and so far all has gone smooth!
Tougher? they are fine!
maybe include another 2 tiers. tier 4 for 25 acc's for an extra 200xp's to take it to 500xp's and tier 5 for 50 acc's for an extra 500xp's to take it to 1000xp's for top tier.
should have said this first, thanks and enjoying challenges making me do things and use things i won't normally do.
You gotta remember its "daily challenges" there not gonna give us the same amount of xp we would get in a clan op and that why its so easy its just a daily challenge. Have you done a daily challenge in halo reach, its simple an easy. Weekly challenges will be a little more harder probably and with more xp. So far challenges are flawless. But yeah 10 accolades is "way" too easy for a 24hr challenge. Knocking it up just a little wouldnt hurt. Clan- Bangin Strangers
Thanks, bring on some more.
My suggestion would be to automatically enlist every clan in the challanges, that way members can be earning the accolades even if the clan leader forgot to enlist them. The member can just go to elite see what the challanges are for the week and go for them.
And/Or give us more characters for the message of the day. I list the next three clan ops the clan is enlisted in but i don't have room for clan challanges.
Thanks for your feedback. Auto-enlistment is a possibility in the future but we're focusing development on providing a variety of Challenges at the moment. Let me check with our design team about the reasoning for the Message of the Day character limit and whether it can be expanded.

Wow, actual feedback from a dev, thanks for looking into things.
Clan Challenges are great!
We are a small clan, just 4 friends (3 elite founders+1 non paying) - and we are casual gamers of 30+ (clan k:d 1,31) playing only core TDM, so there haven't really been any way for us to level up our clan. Untill now. Two of us caught the pistol fever and racked up 10 accolades in 10 games playing together. I just wanted to say please keep in mind smaller clans when thinking of new challenges, not all of us have 100+ players.
Also, fun to see 11 year olds asking us to change our clan name, only been using it since before they was born ![]()
Also also, please put up more Clan Challenges, we are awaiting!

whats ur clan name ?
When do the clan challenges update to check what your on??
Daily and Weekly Challenges update at various intervals as we optimize the performance of the feature. The most accurate stat to go off for now is after the completion of the challenge.

My Kills are not listet? Also in the Clan Operation the last night, in my Clan it only count me, but i was playing with 2 Friends in my Clan, ID: BonBonVerteiler_ and Darkspy9 wasn´t listet`?! Sorry about my bad english!
Thanks for the clan challenges,its a great way for all clan members to participate and increase their clans xp without them being premium members...enjoying the challenges alot..only thing i would maybe like to see is an auto-function were clan leaders tick and dont have to individualy enter there clans in challenges,being a clan leader i find this would help alot as some times im away from my console due to work or social situations and cant access my ps3 to add us into clan challenges,thus my clan mates miss out - just an idea!
We've been enjoying the challenges, mixes things up a bit.
Are you guys any nearer to turning on some kind of additional clan leader functionality? I could really do with the ability to have at least one other member of the clan enlist in the challenges. A couple of days away and we've missed the weekly challenge and a short notice daily challenge.
Great work so far on the Challenges though, keep them coming, expand the variety and add a 4th and 5th tier would be a natural extension when the beta is finished.
Must say the Clan Challenges are more fun then clap ops.
Not only does it force you to change up ure game-style to get the accolades, it also doesnt force you to play in a 3hour window wich isnt allways that easy to get done. All player of COD should be 18+ but we all know its more like 70% 14year olds. That said, I think atleast 75% of the 18+ are spending the weekend nights out with friends.
Thanks for increasing the 3rd tier xp for the weekly challenge to 150 xp and as the others have mentioned they are a lot of fun. Keep them coming.
I found the accolade challenge for defusing the most bombs troubling. Mainly because noone in Sabotage, Search and Destroy, or Demolition will plant the bomb. Perhaps you should lower that accolade challenge from 10 to 7?
We came up a little short on that one as well but it was because we didn't have very many poeple on that night and invariably some random guy would beat us out for the most defuses. We didn't have too much problem with the other team not trying to plant. Although I did get one of my accolades with only 1 diffuse. Talk about getting lucky.
Every game I was in was terrible. Most of my clan mates that I did not play with also were complaining. They have more time to play than I do. I thought that accolade was a bit tough just considering how game play changes when these accolades are up for grabs. Literally people will lose on purpose just to get an accolade. Which means they are camping spawns allowing other team to plant. mean while, the same thought it occuring on opposite team.
that one was easy, we got 6 of us together from the clan, and played demolition. You have to be prepared to lose every match to accomplish this challenge easily. First if you are planting bombs, DON'T plant a single bomb then other team can't defuse, then when you lose you switch sides, now they are planting and all you have to do is diffuse 1 bomb and your done. Then let them plant to there hearts content and you lose of course. But you will get accolade for most diffuses. And you keep repeating till challnge is done. The key is having a full team of clan members so a random player doesn't screw eveything up
My thoughts.
First. We are a larger clan, 70+. About 60 or so who are active each week, and about half of them playing quite a bit still, every week. Assuming the present system stays intact: 5 to 6 daily 300xp challenges, and 1 weekly 750xp challenge..............
.....I think Beachhead has to be careful with dumbing down the ultimate purpose of clan leveling....which is getting to level 50. That was one of our primary motivational tools each week to play the contests, "get to 50!!!", as it appeared that very few clans would make it. But at some point, all these bonus XP things are cheapening the process. For example. The weekly challenges are way to easy. Even the recent one, a score of 1,000,000 points over a week. Come on, that's like just giving away XP for no work. If one person plays 50 games this upcoming week, they'll probably get around 100,000 just themselves.
Clan Name: One-Nation
Clan Challenge: Total Headshots/Marksman
(The Challenge still has over 3 days to go, we enlisted in this a day before it started. We went to check our progress a day after it started and it said "Not Enlisted". I don't know why this would happen, my clan "One-Nation" has NEVER missed a Clan Op or a Clan Challenge that we've been aware of.)
We were Enlisted on the website.
If you could just Re-enlist us, with still 3 days to go we'd be happy with that as we'd still finish the challenge. This is very frustrating since we are so close to level 50.
