I know right? I missed that freedom so much after they introduced "Full-sync objectives".

I can understand asking us to do stuff like, "perform one zipline assassination", or "accomplish x in y amount of time", but why would they give objectives like, "Air Assassinate Pitcairn"? That's so pointless, since there's just one tree that leads above him in the area, and they technically told us that that is the only way to do it.
