Hey everyone,  

We have seen comments from players that this workaround have been working. 🙂 

*For PC you can try this:*

  1. Documents->Battlefield V->settings - Move all files out to desktop,
  2. Disable Cloud Saves and start game,
  3. Do the mission,
  4. Close game and put files back.

*For PS4 you can try this:*

  1. Export the game save files to an USB drive.
  2. Delete the game save files in the console.
  3. Start the game. You'll have to adjust contrast and play again the intro.
  4. Now, play the War Story and complete the bugged challenge. It will show correctly achieved.
  5. Close the game, and restore the game save files from the USB to the console.
  6. Start the game, and you'll have your reward at the armory.

*For Xbox it would similar:*

  1. You would need to move the saved file from the Xbox to a USB stick,
  2. Clear local and cloud saves for BFV. (This wont remove multi player data)
  3. Start the game. You'll have to adjust contrast and play again the intro.
  4. Now, play the War Story and complete the bugged challenge. It will show correctly achieved.
  5. lose the game, and restore the game save files from the USB to the console.
  6. Start the game, and you'll have your reward at the armoury.

    Product: Battlefield V
    Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
    Please specify your platform model. Microsoft Xbox One X
    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.
