Week 1 Challenge Glitch - Sub machine gun damage not being tracked

Product: Apex Legends
Platform:PC
Please specify your platform model. PC
AMD or Nvidia Model Number Nvidia GTX 3070
Enter RAM memory size in GB 32GB 3000Mhz
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? TBoneXCII
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

Information attached above. Fairly simple, minor Issue but can provide more info if need be

    Thanks for the post, Did you stick with any particular SMGs or try a selection of all of them?

  • Thanks for your reply David.

    I've tried the Volt, Alternater, and R99 in both Competitive, LTM 3s and LTM 2s. I'm not sure what could be causing this but I think it's either a glitch or perhaps I need to meet some sort of special criteria for the SMG damage to go up (Say I have to knock/finish them with the SMG or Shoot them whilst they're knocked in order for the damage to count) as it does go up a little from time to time but no where near enough.

    For example, I played a game with an R99 and Volt SMG for 90% of the game and did around 2k damage but there was no change to the counter.
