I'm not sure if anyone else has posted about this, I didn't see anything so I wanted to make a post as some people say the Dev's look thru this.

If you're going to give us challenges to do for caps, make sure we can actually do them. There was the fiasco with the challenges being released having to do with camera stuff before the camera was actually released - that's done and over with but now there's a new challenge for this week that only has 9 items on the list and you need all 9 - yet 1 of them is either not in the game yet, or something not coded right - the Alien. What's more frustrating is that for example, myself, will set off to do these challenges and then when I have only a few left, I look to google to see where I should specifically look to find them to make sure I complete the challenge I've been working towards, only to see that no one else has been able to find it and it's not able to be completed; meaning I've just wasted my time (I'm sure others do the same) when I could have been doing something else.

Another thing that's happening is when we're taking photos with the camera of whatever item on the list, it doesn't always tag it to complete the challenge (even when you make sure that the camera is saying what the thing is in the recognition feature). This makes it difficult when we're tracking down the rare things, such as the Mothman, Flatwoods Monster, legendary creatures wanting to rip our faces off. I've taken countless photos of different 'wildlife' that just haven't counted towards the achievement because for some reason it's just not picking it up that I've done it.

You've put these weekly and daily challenges in, so in the future please make sure that they are things that we can complete and if not - tell us about it; I haven't seen any post on the launcher or in game launcher about 'Hey sorry this isn't working right now, we're working on figuring out why'.

Thanks for listening to my feedback rant :)

We are aware there is an issue with the Alien challenge registering with the Flatwoods Monster and plan on addressing this with a future update.

For this comment here, do you have a specific challenge example you can give us?
