 Maybe it's time for some new mini challenges?

So I noticed that the mission "The Elios Migration" has a mini challenge, and I can't help but notice it is exactly the same as all other mini challenges we've had.

Will we ever see any different mini challenges?
Would anyone want a different one?
If so, what do you all think would be a good one?

Anyone?

It's not really a piece of content that i would personally see as having time worth spent on, seeing as its not even content, but more periphery.

Yea, I hate having to spend more energy and time doing a pointless mini-challenge piece of fluff.

Get rid of them altogether

Yep, put me down in the "I hate that rubbish and really don't want another form of rubbish to replace it with" column.

I was thinking the same thing when the new daily mission got to the end and i saw there was a mini game i was expecting something different than we had before.

On the other hand I do kind of agree with what others have said about it not been content or can see where they are coming from.

Another mini challenge that I would like is maybe a combination lock type of mini game (4 digits or longer passcode, you could get a number for it each time you complete a certain number of rounds of a mission), could be added to the legion mission where you have to open the vault forgot the name of it. Issue with that for some could be remembering the numbers if they don't write them down.

These are my thoughts anyway!

a mastermind one in conjunction with a seasonal daily might work for this. the one i am thinking of would be a row of 4 digits. after each round ... you get to try a PIN and the game will indicate the number of exact matches and the number of correct digits, but in the wrong place. if it is like the current elios one, you would get 10 tries to unlock the PIN. if you DO unlock the pin, the arti drop when the daily is completed is modified to give an additional bonus. this would work best if the arti drop had something to do with hacking of course ;)

EDIT: instead of digits 0 to 9, you could use 10 race images selected at random.

I think the mini-challenge should be harder to complete, so it takes a bit time and efford. Cause now its just a little waste of time cause its very easy and there is no challenge in it in order to complete.

I hate having to do a mini-game before finishing a mission. Absolute waste of time.

-1 mini challenges are for people who can't find arcade game websites like this one http://www.classicgamesarcade.com/ or this one http://www.freearcade.com/ or this one http://www.arcadegames.com/

If I wanted a "mini challenge" i'd play an arcade game instead of Galaxy Legion.

First, I think the current GL mini challenge should be based on a max number of moves, instead of on time, as it is basically impossible for me to even flip all the tiles once with magically no reflips in the time allotted when I'm using a phone.

Second, I think mini challenges would be better if they were more thematic and contextual, but as is, they don't really add a lot in my opinion.
