Having the same problem on the xbox. in addition it also hasn't registered the sneaking around challenges either. When I load the second act in the game menu it clearly shows all completed.
Hey everyone,
We have seen comments from players that this workaround have been working. 🙂
*For PC you can try this:*
- Documents->Battlefield V->settings - Move all files out to desktop,
- Disable Cloud Saves and start game,
- Do the mission,
- Close game and put files back.
*For PS4 you can try this:*
- Export the game save files to an USB drive.
- Delete the game save files in the console.
- Start the game. You'll have to adjust contrast and play again the intro.
- Now, play the War Story and complete the bugged challenge. It will show correctly achieved.
- Close the game, and restore the game save files from the USB to the console.
- Start the game, and you'll have your reward at the armory.
*For Xbox it would similar:*
- You would need to move the saved file from the Xbox to a USB stick,
- Clear local and cloud saves for BFV. (This wont remove multi player data)
- Start the game. You'll have to adjust contrast and play again the intro.
- Now, play the War Story and complete the bugged challenge. It will show correctly achieved.
- lose the game, and restore the game save files from the USB to the console.
- Start the game, and you'll have your reward at the armoury.

Hey Atic appreciate the response and potential work around but xbox players simply cant move the save to and from a USB, the only thing we can do is copy the whole game over.

I am a little bit worried if that could delete my game progress.

Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Game Menu
In which game menu were you when the bug occurred? melee weapons list in the your company thing, or the armory. idk if you have the war story weapons appear in the armory first or wether they just go straight to your company.
Please select your region Europe
On which server did this happen?
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm)
Summarize your bug i’ve seen posts about letters glitching in war stories but i haven’t had any letter glitches. everything for the under no flag war story is completed and correctly shows that it is completed however i have not received the cricket bat melee weapon. even after playing multiple games, leveling up multiple times and waiting for maybe a week. i have contacted EA about this and was told there was nothing they could do, and that i need to put a bug report here, so.. here it is.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? idk, apparently it’s not something that happens so much to others so i’m not to sure. i would think the bug stems from something to do with the rewarding system as everything that needs to be done for me to receive the reward has happened without any issues, all letters have been and are recognized as being collected, and same thing for the challenges being completed. so it’s whatever the game is supposed to do after that is what’s messing up.
What happens when the bug occurs? nothing happens, that’s the problem. i’m supposed to receive the cricket bat and i just don’t.
What should be happening instead? i should be recieving the cricket bat.

I have the issue with AA/documents challenges not working while of course completing both multiple time successfully. Tried the work around for PC redid the mission a few times and the challenges still werent completed. I gave up on this since i spent many hours trying to get this to work. I think for a game like this, this needs to be fixed.

Summarize your bug All the unlockable melee weapons from the War Stories are missing from the game for new players: Cricket Bat, Solveig's Knife, and Coupe Coupe. They are never shown as unlockable melee weapons in 'Your Company' tab as unlockable items, but instead the Legendary melee weapons take their place. This means they are missing from the game and even when completing the war stories and challenges, they will never unlock either.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Use an account that doesn't already own the War Story unlockable melee weapons such as Cricket Bat, Solveig's Knife, and Coupe Coupe, and see that they are never shown as unlockable melee weapons in 'Your Company'. Complete the War Stories and challenges, and the melee weapons will not unlock either.
What happens when the bug occurs? The Cricket Bat, Solveig's Knife, and Coupe Coupe are not shown as unlockable melee weapons in "Your Company" and cannot be unlocked from completing the War Story and completing the challenges.
What should be happening instead? The Cricket Bat, Solveig's Knife, and Coupe Coupe should be included in the game as unlockable melee weapons and should be rewarded to the player when a War Story and challenges have been completed.

Xbox users cannot back up or copy gamesaves.
I highly recommend you edit the Xbox section of that tutorial you keep pasting in response to these questions because it is completely invalid.
There is no way to copy or transfer an Xbox One gamesave to a USB or any other drive. It is a system level restriction that you cannot copy or transfer any locally stored saves from the Internal drive even if you have the game installed on an external drive. Even if you delete the local save the console automatically downloads and uses the cloud save. Microsoft did this due to all of the issues on the Xbox 360 with modded, edited and gamesave sharing.
The only actual solution is to manually delete both the local and cloud save for Battlefield V in the manage game section of the Xbox One. The downside to doing this is that you are going to lose all progress in the War Stories except for the rewards and Achievements you've already unlocked which are tracked and stored on EA and Microsoft servers outside of the gamesave.
If you want the gamesave to look like you've actually completed everything you would have to go back and redo everything from the beginning and hope it doesn't desync again and not credit you for something even if it's just a tick mark in the menu.
I had to do this with the original release War stories which weren't tracking properly on act three of the first story. It was quite annoying to go back and redo everything just so it showed up as completed.
This is not an ideal workaround and it been nearly a month and this still has not been fixed by DICE. - 7 years ago

Or could you just fix this bug and give us the skin. Not everyone has the time to mess around with settings that's why we have consoles.

It's still being investigated.
Tiger Tank skin reward does not unlock when collecting all the letters in the single player campaign.

'Still beeing investigated' since god damn 5 month?
Do they hope to fix it by accident while they * up another code for any unwanted update or whats the issue there?
They surely are not fixing other bugs that occured since release in that time, since they did not even managed to reward the damn coins after reaching rank 50.
Fml, what a joke.
And i was always like people are just hyping talking bad about EA. How wrong i was.

I did this what you’ve told and it didn’t work for me, I have everything completed and I deleted it and restarted the game and I had to redo the intro and everything and even reset my vehicles to wher I wanted them and all for nothing because my skin is still not unlocked
- 6 years ago
- I did what you said and all it did was reset my settings and vehicle location on spawn screen, no skin. I did everything you said. Lot of time wasted. Can’t dice come out with an update to fix all this mess? A lot of people are unhappy. A developer shouldn’t have to get players to mess with save data for their game to work and that’s a sure way to lose player base. I know y’all don’t really care about losing customers with the past statements on game release but I mean ouch this kinda hurts now. @EA_Atic
