4th challenge would be amazing.
It’s been a long time since the topic of a 4th challenge has been raised.
How about a 4th challenge? We have two distance challenges and a climbing challenge - so how about a challenge based on slices of pizza burned? 300 slices gets you the Tron 2 bike - which has EXACTLY the same characteristics as the current Tron bike but looks different. Maybe a disc rear wheel, maybe a different shape, maybe a mono wheel bike. I’ll leave the design to the Zwift programmers and artists. But it will break up the monotony of the 3 or 4 bikes that dominate races these days. And like all the other challenges, you don’t start earning the bike until you sign up to the challenge so you can’t count the slices of pizza already burned.
They should remove the Challenges in it’s current form. The rewards for Ride Italia and California are obsolete and really not interesting. Leave only the Everest/Tron challenge, but put in in a visible place on the Home screen, not hidden in some mid-game menu.
They could put a 365x ADZ challenge to recreate what was done a few years ago by two Zwift users who rode almost every day on Alpe du Zwift.
Some days they did 2x ADZ other days nothing, but by end of year had 365x ADZ.
All laps were done in real rides (not erg mode).
They were featured in a magazine as well.
The unlock would have to be something special - like a Canyon Ultimate CF Evo SL climbing bike. Something extremely light and somewhat aero.
I like the idea of adding a fourth, difficult-to-achieve challenge. Make it like a Grand Tour with multiple components, distance, climb, routes completed, etc.
Can we get some new Challenges. None have been added on the main screen for ages. Lost of people have done Ride California, Climb Mt. Everest and Tour Italy. They were fun.
Ride Across America would be great.
How about a maybe “easy” one?
Descend the Marianas Trench!
Good idea.
The route of this years Transcontinental race (Belgium to Istanbul).
Just finished the Everest challenge. Not impressed there isn’t a 4th challenge. Even worse that people have been asking for years.
They’ve got the mini challenges now which is something. Another main challenge would be even better.
Another idea would be something like a Haute Route 7 day style event as a challenge, you have to do it in 7 days, just as in real life, each day has over 100km and 3000-4500m elevation gain, one day will be a short 14km time trial type stage and the last stage will typically be a huge 180km “transport” style stage, and one other stage will be a “queen” stage with huge elevation.
This would need quite a lot of new HC climbs and roads to make it happen because Watopia only has ADZ, the others are all much smaller. and unsuitable. You could even have things like motorbikes with a camera guy on them riding alongside you at times just as in real life. These would only appear for the person doing the challenge.
These will also need to be ridden in sim mode to keep it like real life.
The unlock should be something desirable, a light bike that is also very aero, something quicker than tron. Maybe also special socks and kit.
I know that’s a really tough challenge and I probably wouldn’t be able to complete it until I get my bike fit sorted out.
Yeah yeah, I know, nobody rides hills in Zwift, etc. Before anyone says it.
That’s a bit ott, cycle around Australia would great.
I’m actually cycling across Australia at the moment with a virtual challenge from Medal Mad - 4379km across and I’m currently on 1861km. I know it’s not in game Zwift but I thought it was good to keep a challenge going!! Fun too.
Why not introduce something along the lines of the Conqueror Challenge idea, where you would receive a badge for completing a challenge below is an example of what I mean. Endless possibilities and good fun in the process.
Yes please
It’s really time for a new challenge or a series of challenges
This has been said over and over and over again, so this time I am here with a few ideas, and questions on how hard it actually is to implement. First of all ideas:
-Great Wall of China: 21,000kms(13,000mi)
-Pan-American Highway: 31,000kms(19,000mi)
-Around The World: 40,000kms(25,000mi)
And some running ones:
-Grand Canyon: 446kms(277mi)
-Mammoth Cave: 685kms(426mi)
I know there are many more, but the question is, Zwift, how hard is it to make a new challenge. It’s not like a new feature or something, you already have tracking, an interface, and all the reward needs to be are some sunglasses or something, I don’t care. I just want the motivation to get on the bike and rack up the miles. With all the random stuff Zwift has been throwing our way, I rarely find myself doing more than 20-30 miles, but Centuries are fun, I just need an excuse, which is why…More Challenges. (note, when I went to create this, it told me the title “More Challenges” had been used…hmmm)
Connecting the dots to share the reminder that the 4th Challenge - Factory Tour has launched with the latest 1.85.0 Game Release! Introducing the Factory Tour Challenge: A New Electrifying Experience
