Worked good today:

Iâve been stuck on 4/5 hunters, using a meusser. Iâve killed far more than I should have with one of the worst guns in the game and Iâm just running out of the will to do them, any more.
Edit: right after I posted this I killed 2 more hunters and it miraculously completed. I got the feeling some mod somewhere hit the button making it complete after reading my post. Thanks, whoever hit the button.
I thought this, too.
But now I used my 5c meusser with 5c silencer and 5c riflescope seriously the first time and it was really fun.
Well, I must say that I used the exp explosive ammo

I used heat ammo at first, but it was just wasting a lot of ammo so I stuck to soft point after that. For some reason my 5* silencer for rifles was missing, lost or scrapped or I gave it to a buddy. So I was shooting a slow firing, slow loading weapon at mobs that ended up in my face, half the time. Fun was not the word that came to mind. Funny enough I did a base defense and one of those tanks dropped me a replacement silencerâŚAFTER I was done with the assignment. I think thatâs a rule somewhere. You only get what you need after the need has passed.
I think in all I had to kill between 20 and 25 hunters, way more than the 5 required, for it to complete.

Hunter completed after 2 hunters downed, with message displayed and reward in the boxâŚ
No luck with the crafting first aid kitsâŚ
What I really donât get is the huge difference between which assignment works for whomâŚ
I mean, take the âcrafting first aid kitsâ one, these assignments seem to have never worked for me except yesterday⌠I thought ok, give it a try again and crafted 10 simple kits⌠et voila, assignment completed with notification and rewards⌠
The âkill hunters with hunting riflesâ one worked out at the end but the counter was somewhat bugged again. Killed one hunter the counter showed 2/5, killed one more and the counter went to 4/5⌠and stayed there for about another 6-8 hunters before the assignment surprisingly completed.
Odd thing about the R-Points, after finishing the first aid kit assignment for 1 RP my RP counter went from 0 to 4 !?? And stayed there after completing the second assignmentâŚ
So what is it that seemingly gives everyone a different experience and outcome ?? As said before, these errors/bugs seem to be not reliably reproducable to track down the cause. At least I see no way to do thatâŚ

P.S.: and the story continuesâŚ
Todays assignment âkill 3 Wolf machinesâ ended early after killing the first Wolf⌠
With notification and sound effect and possibly also with rewards at least I noticed some additional wood in the assignment box ? Oh and again no R-PointsâŚ
So I didnât even bother with the 2nd assignment to kill Ticks with a melee weapon. One is not able to reliably find/spawn Ticks and with those broken assignments/counters Iâm surely not going to waste my time on that⌠Ymmv

Itâs become pretty clear now in this topic that FMTEL erratic behaviour is sometimes server-side or code where itâs impossible to complete an assignment and sometimes itâs in the client or code that allow some to complete assignment and others in a different way or not a all.
Reading here what assignments work and donât work is a good sanity-check saving lots of resources/ammo. Posts about assignments that do work is important to know about.

Take the road up to Base Camp to get ticks attacking then keep going on to the other side down the hillside where there is a cave with ticks too. Otherwise hunters reliably spawn ticks.
Please check your fmtel-screen.
As you see on my screenshots above there is no resistance - point level anymore.
Therefore I guess the system was deactivated (due to the problems with it).
One more thing regarding the counter.
Maybe it just counts when youâre out of fight and get the xp for the battle?
So if you join a large battle with some harvesters for killing hunters, then tanks, runners, maybe wolves and lynx join the battle it just counts your destroyed hunters when all machines are destroyed and the battle is over or you get killed and respawn somewhere where itâs safe.

Well I do have the R-Point display (playing on PC)
And during any of the latest assignments I intentionally avoided large battles and picked off single machines of the given type. E.g. the usual lonely Wolf (except for his Lynx escort though) in front of Skarven command bunker, the hunter patrolling the tank wrecks north of Saltholmen church (+ the two Runners there) and the hunter at the road east of Stenhaga farm and so on. I did this to keep track of the counter and checked it after every fight and of course after getting the XP for it.
The FNIX base at the airfield has a stack of ticks. Just annoy them and hit them with a large bit of wood or metal.
Both assignments completed for me, but the count was not functioning. The exact number of destroyed Wolves triggered assignment completion. Rewards given for both.
If you own Alpine Unrest, visit the cave/tunnelsystem in the north east of Himfjäll. I donât know the exact number, but there are many ticks.

Precisely where I went. There are well over 20 (26 by my last count) Ticks at the FNIX Research Facility at (-1790, 555). As well, there are around 10 at the Hinsevik Generator (-1903, 2393). The Tick assignment tripped for me, no issues. Took more than 3 Wolves, though, but it still tripped. Imagine having to destroy 3 Wolves and walking out of a save point to find 3 waiting for you.

I went to a couple of FNIX outposts and had no problem finding ticks. FNIX research facility West of Overby bunker is particularly good. Assignment completed without issue.
Iâm going North to find Wolves, now. Iâll edit the results, here.
Wolves completed without issue and tank level rewards.
May I suggest to return to the inital intention of this topic?
Letâs wait for a new fix for the assignments. The system with the resistance-points is broken, thatâs for sure. But I propose that here should just be posted until itâs fixed, if there also is a problem with the assignments themselves (not finishing/no rewards).
For whom it works should not confirm that anymore. This topic has just grown too great.
Thx

Todayâs assignments worked without a problem for me. Resistance points were awarded for myself without issue.
I went to the caves at Himfjäll. Destroyed there 2 ticks and checked the counter - it displayed 4/10. I cleared the rest of the cave (including the large bunch clawed to the ceiling) - the counter dinât noticed that and stuck on 4/10.
Then I fasttravelled to South Coast to clear some of the FNIX outposts. I donât know how many ticks I destroyed, but at some point the counter jumped to 8/10. Some time later it completed with some new stuff landing in the reward trunk.
Wolfs⌠well⌠I destroyed ONE, and it completed the assignment

So my Resistance points were on 34 today (it was the last day before they reset for me) and I did both assignments, rewards came through but no more points. super annoying. I really need that tank package, can I somehow put in an appeal to get it back? On another note, the assignment were due an hour earlier than normal today. Anyone else find this? At least im getting 3 assignments now lol.
I should add that this is my 2nd week in the game
@DaBooch and @Madchaser I set up a new topic that could help simply by using a poll instead. I thought setting up a seperate topic with instructions on how to build a weekly poll would be a helpful reference since FMTEL tends to be broken from time to time. This concerns success with completed assignments on PC in the example.
