Battlefield 2042 ribbon service

Product: Battlefield 2042
Platform:PlayStation 5
Please specify your platform model. Sony PlayStation 5
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Game Menu
In which game menu were you when the bug occurred? Weekly Challenges
Please select your region North America
On which server did this happen?
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 21.10.24 23:00
Summarize your bug Cannot acquire ribbons to progress weekly challenge. I played 3 or 4 games returned to the menu, and see my ribbons not updating and glitched at 60/80.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Unreliable coding. This is an EA/Dice problem.
What happens when the bug occurs? I cannot complete my weekly challenges or earn ribbons
What should be happening instead? I should have 80/80 ribbons earned last weeks challenges and therefore should have Boris’ Helical skin. The community should be compensated for the lack of reliability and support to Battlefield 2042, and EAs portal.

I played probably 15 games over the course of the week. My ribbons progressed to 60/80 and then I could not receive any more, or they would not update in the menu. With 9 hours left until new weekly challenges were available I played 3 games where I was top 5 on my team each game. I’d return to the menu and the challenge would remain glitched at 60/80. I missed out on Boris’ Helical skin which I most certainly should’ve been rewarded, potentially xp associated with these ribbons as well. This needs investigation immediately.

  • Me too, many games have play but not update at all? Games problem or what?

    Summarize your bug Cannot Earn Ribbons - Get Rewards in SHUTDOWN 12V12. I played several games returned to the menu and no rewards. Shutdown xbox, router e.t.c and went to sleep. Day after, restarted xbox, router e.t.c and played and the same problem… no ribbons.

    What should be happening instead? I should have X/80 ribbons earned after playing several times. Fix the problem or the community should be compensated because I do not believe I’m the only one with this issue.

  • It's also happening to me. Region = Canada west coast

    Super disappointing given the Blasco skin has been long overdue and now it's stuck behind an undesirable game mode that doesn't even work.

    Same here, I played 2-3 rounds of Shutdown and 0 ribbons were added, should have had 30-40 already.

    On the bright side Breakthrough tracks them, but it's more tedious since it doesn't double the  progress.

    Thank you neoforo87!

    I played one game of infantry breakthrough and earned ribbons in SHUTDOWN 12V12. Better slow than no ribbons.

    Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. ;-)

    Have not tried other game modes yet regarding this issue.

    So to everybody, try at least INFANTRY BREAKTHROUGH, it should earn ribbons in SHUTDOWN 12V12.

    Yup ifantry conquest works as well. But tedious to grind those 80 ribbons...
