FMTEL Assignments not tracking

I killed 3 wolfs with melee, and did not get this. When in swinging the bat, killed lynx on the side too which granted the assigment. Didnt take screenshot or anything else so i could confim this and make bug report.

Either way, typo on assigment text or assigment is linked to wrong machine.

Edit:
Found some pictures from video, because was sure there was something wrong with the assigment.


Or, that’s my theory, a wolf never is just a wolf and its dropped lynx belong to it.

Should be checked next time this assignment appears (first destroy three lynx with melee).

I had yesterday destroy 3 wolf. Did that without problem. Didn’t have to destroy any lynx.

But when I had destroy wolf with melee there was a problem. So my guess is that it is something wrong with that specific assignment not that lynx are bound to wolf.

Yesterday I did all three assignments and got rewards for it. Destroy TVs, Kill 4 tanks and destroy a number of military class machines. But today 1 point is gone and I have only 5. Did all three assignments today and I have now 11 points. But when I restarted the game I suddenly had all 12 points.

I had one last week where it completed but didn’t give me a point and I never did get it. It seems it can still be a bit fickle occasionally.

Just launched game. Had 6 points, tick tier complete. Accepted todays assigments and still after that had 6 points.

I am on PC platform, so there everything seems to work.

Just got the message “assignments are down for maintenance. Please see official channels for updates”… what “official channels “?

Good question.
I’d say the official forum and twitter and discord (social media). But at least here and on twitter there is no information.

Nothing to worry about. Had you just completed all the daily assignments?

I think that I completed one of the assignments and was going to check if I was all done or if I had one more to try to complete.

Maybe just the wrong text, “maintenance” instead of “come back tomorrow”?

That’s the “normal” text when you completed all assignments for the day.

Even though it’s weird wording… :man_shrugging:

Should be more like “You have completed all of today’s assignments, come back tomorrow at 10 AM UTC” (or whatever time it is resetted)

I think the base defence missions and assignments are completely broken, the robots won’t purposely damage any buildings, or really shoot much at all, and repairing buildings doesn’t seem to register any progress on the assignment.
I managed to get 3 out of 5 on the assignment on my first defence mission but currently on my second, no repairs are being counted at all.

Update: In the time it took for me to make an account and type up the post, the robots managed to damage one structure and destroy another, after repairing the damaged structure, it gave me the last 2 I needed to complete the assignment.

Hey all, I found this game through Xbox Game Pass with my brother and too have been plagued by bugged assignments. Can we create a list of known bugged assignments and work arounds? General Tips about enemy spawns and what weapons work as well would be great. Having a pinned live list or spreadsheet would help the community and the developers I’m sure.

Overall, the game is fantastic and I love it, it’s different and there is a lot of potential.

Off topic:

These forums are filled with good guides, tips & tricks to deal with these pesky machines invading Sweden in 80’s, and styling of course. You cant go without 80’s looks.

This discussion has all the assigment related bugs & problems, use search. For most bugs there is no workaround until it gets fixed. And this always leads to not able to get weekly tank tier reward.

The only reason I ask for a list is because you don’t know what you don’t know, so it makes it difficult to search for these things. Having a list of all the known bugs (and which ones have no solutions) saves the frustration of trying to figure them out with no luck in game. I don’t know if this forum has the ability to pin posts, but if it could that would organize things and make it more useful and user friendly.

Good point, and for currently broken assigments there is no easy list.
FMTEL assigments works quite solid now, like 99%. For past 2-3 weeks there has been only 1 issue what i remember and it has workaround. Error in assigment where wolf machine is indicated, but actually it is lynx machine what counts for assigment.
After it was reported i have not seen that assigment again.

We had issues last weekend getting the kill a tank with a sniper rifle assignment to track. We killed multiple tanks each before it finally went through. We made sure not to shoot the components when it was low health. I explicitly play this game with my brother, so maybe there’s something wrong with the damage tracking in co-op.

So maybe some assignments work in solo but not co-op. It’s just hard to check against without a constant source. I’ve been screenshotting assignments when I play but it’s only been a couple of weeks of us playing together.

Again some reasons to have a small counter to track the assignments direvtly on the screen. You would immediatly see, if a machine counted.

As long as there’s a toggle to turn it on an off.

This toggle could be located on each assignment in the FMTEL-Station/assignments - tab. If you activate it, you could have the option to track it on HUD.
