Please provide your squad mates' gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name if possible.
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which Legend were you playing (if applicable)?
Which Legends were your squad mates using (if applicable)?
Where did the issue occur? In the lobby (waiting area before the match)
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. In regards to specifically Week 1 Battle Pass Challenge for Season 8. "Deal 5000 damage with a sub machine gun" (something along those lines)
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. Dealing damage with all sub machine guns doesn't count towards the Challenge for some reason. Both on ranked and LTM
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? I don't know
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? Noticed it a few days ago but haven't thought much of it.
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 12/02/2021
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Little to no impact to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? Challenge mentioned above (Season 8, Battle Pass, Week 1 Challenges, Sub Machine gun damage) is barely going up. Say I play a few games specifically with sub machine guns and do 1k damage, the counter will stay where it's at. Noticed it is slowly going up by about 300 damage every 6-9 hours.
What should be happening instead? Challenge should be tracked normally
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure if this is just me but load into a game, do some damage and watch as it's not recorded under Challenges
