FMTEL Assignments not tracking

Monday failed to award a point for the cycle over 50 challenge. Yesterday for the 10 seekers challenge it took over 4 hours to complete. Eight of those were at one location.
If there is a challenge to destroy a particular type of machine it seems the map has a reduced amount of that machine. They don’t seem to spawn at their usual places. This was particularly noticeable yesterday with the seekers. I found one inside 10 minutes and nothing more for 4 hours.
Anyone else noticed this?

Though all my assignments completed without issue this week, I do agree about the reduced spawns. OK with that though it can be frustrating. You have to actively look for targets.

I do base assault for anything below the big bots, it really helps out.

Yeah I wouldn’t mind if it was reasonable but 3 hours without seeing a single seeker was a bit much.
While on the subject people responsible for assignments are to be applauded for recently giving a more varied menu of things to do but I do think that involving bases is a bit too much. I was unable to complete yesterday’s task as despite playing for several hours I did not get a base assault to spawn. Yes I could have gone for one of my many level 3 Fnix bases but for one point it was just not worth it.
Please don’t involve any future base Attack/defend assignments as not everyone has all day to play.

Today it is a base assault using only a melee weapon,what? Even if I could get one to spawn that’s a bit much.
Please can we stick to destroying this or that machine with this or that weapon.

Try this, maybe could be fun.

I completed todays assignment by destroying the whole base from a distance with rockets and then moved in for the final stroke with the baseball bat. Worked a treat!

That way might be doable but shouldn’t have worked because it said USING ONLY a melee weapon.
ps. I don’t have an Exp Hammer as I refuse to do reapers.

Just don’t get to close to the base so the assault begins :smiley:

Todays “kill a Wolf with a melee weapon” seems to not count properly ? At least on my side…

I took on this ridiculous assignment twice, and finished off two Wolves with a baseball bat after weakening them with PVG90 and/or A4. Running behind them and hitting the legs with a bat is clearly no real fun, it’s totally ridiculous, especially trying to avoid their minigun if still active…

And when it even does not count finally… :angry: :angry: :angry:

ymmv though

Took three to register tonight for me.

Didn’t think to do that. I went in and baseball batted everything.

Didnt work for me too. First 2 wolf’s with sledgehammer. No 3 - 5 with bat only. and No 6-7 with small emp and bat. Did not count one.
(PS4 pro)

I killed two with the baseball bat, but it didn’t count until i killed a lynx with the bat, kinda feels like the text on the assignment was wrong? Should it be Lynx instead of Wolf?

:thinking: Hmmm… a Lynx you say ? Maybe I’ll try that later, maybe not… :man_shrugging:

Actually I’m not the type who comes to a gunfight with a kni… baseball bat… whatever… :man_shrugging:

Or do the lynx that are dropped by a wolf belong to the wolf?

It was same for me as above. Borrowed a bat and killed three wolfs and no success. Used only the bat and no other weapons.

Killed one lynx and it registered a success.

Same for me just happened. 6 wolves with a bat and got nothing. Then killed one of the Lynx the last one dropped and it completed.

Yep, I killed a Wolf and 3 of his Lynxes and the poor last little Rollerball was introduced to my baseball bat… :sunglasses: The assignment completed right after the ball went off into the environment… Homerun… :grin: :wink:

SO it was a totally misleading description this time. Please apply more QC next time, thx.

Same here. Was busy stabbing the Wolf into scrap while a BB-hate was having a go at me from nearby, turned around after the Wolf was finished and got stabby with it also. Once the Lynx was no more the assignment completed.
