Now I know I am no one to complain, but what is with some of the challenges! I think that impossible challenges that ARE impossible unless you know where some of the boundaries, checkpoints etc are are dumb. Now that said I am known for puzzle levels and if everyone knew where checkpoints spawned... well they wouldn’t be much of a puzzle level. That said all of my puzzle levels are made in quick mode so I do not choose where any of the checkpoints are. I just recognize where they spawn. In complete mode it is impossible to find the checkpoints to a cheesy level. I think you should be able to see where all the walls, holes and checkpoints are. I don’t know about you, but when I see a level with 7 laps and only 10 seconds to complete it... I just think “where are the checkpoints? Where is the break in the wall.” I do not feel like these complete mode tracks test your skill, or knowledge of the game. I do not feel like challange should be based on hide n seek. BOOM there is my argument.fou

yeah a lot of these challenges are hot garbage and they have to be possible because from what i recall you have to test it to prove it possible but they require a lot of skill and cheese to complete. I almost every sing type of cheese in this game.

Yeah. I like the stages that are so hard that they may seem impossible, but I do not like the ones where you need to find where the dev put the hole in the wall of where they placed the secret checkpoint to skip they level. (In complete mode)

Yeah. I can't complete some of your levels. You know what I want to make a big troll level and make it where you cant use the AIs to help you and its gonna be the biggest hot garbage track ever.

The truth is, I think they did a good job with the challenges. The harder ones really test your skills, but I feel like some of them lose the plot, as it were. Some of the descriptions are way too cryptic. Like in one of Megawolf's tracks the challenge says "Get an adrenaline boost in less than 12.88 seconds" How are we supposed to know to turn around and hit the strip of boost panel? The challenge should be completing it, not trying to find out what they mean.
