BF2042 - Baku ACB-90 takedown bug

Product: Battlefield 2042
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Please specify your platform model. Sony PlayStation 4
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Multiplayer
Which part of the mode? Conquest
Please select your region Europe
On which server did this happen?
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm)
Summarize your bug - Takedowns with the knife doesn't kill the target and it prevents you from aiming and switching weapons till you swipe your knife once which fixes the issue
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? - Use the ACB-90 and do a takedown on an enemy and you should see that it doesn't register the kill and you should see the enemy on the ground still alive. - To remove the bug swipe your knife once
What happens when the bug occurs? - If you are using the ACB-90 knife and you do a takedown on someone you can't aim at all afterwards with your right stick/mouse but you can still move your character to any direction. - Takedowns don't register as kills for the knife and it leaves the enemy on the ground still alive
What should be happening instead? Takedowns should register as a kill and not leave the enemy player alive on the ground

    @YOS123 Got the same glitch with the hatchet takedown fatal friend, as well as a glitch where if killed right after takedown lands i completely despawn, cant select new spawn or even see anything on game map

    It hapenned to me too and I think the Baku ACB isn't the only knife that's bugged,the same bug happened with the  tactical folder.

    This glitch is still happening and up until now I didn't mind. But as someone who is trying to complete every weekly challenge, you are efficiently blocking me from doing this by making a takedown the challenge I have had 4 since you started the challenge and am getting continuous glitches with fatal friend and ACB. Please fix this or at least change the challenge because it seems very counter productive to revolve your challenge around something that isn't working properly.

    @MrTrufflers let's update this. The only knife I found that works is survivalist edge (at least for me). If this is consistent across accounts that means people who aren't 99+ are screwed on this challenge.
