Battlefield 6 launched with a deep stack of class challenges and assignments, but some of the most common objectives aren’t tracking correctly. Players are seeing progress bars stall at zero, UI counters that don’t budge mid-match, and descriptions that don’t match what actually completes the task. The team has acknowledged progression issues and is working on fixes; in the meantime, here’s what’s confirmed broken, what’s widely reported, and what you can try right now.


Known challenge tracking bugs (October 2025)

Affected task What’s wrong Notes
Resupply teammates with the Supply Pouch (Challenge) Progress does not track Support players report 0% even after repeated resupplies
Repair Vehicles (Challenge) Progress bar does not update when repairs are made For some, the bar never moves; others see delayed or inconsistent updates
Use Vehicle Supply Crate (Challenge) Completions fail to register Action completes, but the counter remains unchanged
Weapon Expert (Unit Challenge) Description doesn’t match actual requirement Listed as “Get a kill with each type of weapon in a match,” but requires 15 longshot kills in one match
Land Vehicle Expert (Assignment) Helicopters are incorrectly counted as ground vehicles Miscalculation affects assignment progress and categorization
Vehicle Challenge 1 (Assignment) Helicopters not counted properly Tracking fails or counts inconsistently
Player stats from custom Portal game modes Stats may be counted incorrectly Can affect perceived progression; stick to official playlists if you need reliable tracking
Support healing (e.g., “Heal teammates for 5000” in Support 1) Widely reported as stuck at 0% Teammates visibly heal from medbags, but challenge progress doesn’t move

Why your progress looks stuck

There are two separate patterns here. Some objectives genuinely aren’t counting actions toward completion. Others are counting but not updating UI bars during a match, leaving you to discover the real number later. On top of that, several assignments are mislabeled or miscategorized (for example, helicopters being treated as ground vehicles), so you can do the “right” thing and still get no credit.

Two more things can trip you up even if nothing is “bugged”: many challenges only unlock once you reach a required account level, and player stats may miscount when you grind in custom Portal matches. If you’re below the unlock level for a challenge, or you’re farming progress in custom games, what you see in the tracker may not reflect your actual play.


What you can try right now

  • Verify prerequisites. Make sure the challenge or assignment is actually unlocked for your account level before you start grinding it.
  • Restart between grind sessions. Some players see tracking return after a full game restart; it won’t fix every case, but it’s low effort.
  • Stick to official playlists. Because stats may miscount in custom Portal modes, do your tracking-critical objectives in standard modes first.
  • For Support healing, focus on squadmates. Several players report healing only started to count when they kept medbags on squad members rather than random teammates.
  • Keep teammates in medbag range longer. Healing can tick slowly and inconsistently; staying close for multiple seconds increases the chance your actions register.
  • Try a different mode if a counter won’t move. Some have seen healing progress in Squad Deathmatch even when it stalled elsewhere.
  • If you’re completely stuck, a short Portal session vs. bots has helped a few players “nudge” a frozen counter, followed by a restart. Treat this as a last‑resort workaround.
Note: These are workarounds, not guaranteed fixes. If a listed item in the table is broken for you today, it likely needs a patch.

When to expect a fix

The development team has flagged these as progression issues and is working on them. There’s no posted timetable, but historically, these land in early updates after launch. Expect the mislabeled challenge requirements and helicopter categorization errors to be corrected alongside tracking fixes for Support and Engineer objectives.


How to report a broken challenge effectively

Visit the official Battlefield 6 support page to submit a ticket and let the developers know about any bugs you face.

  • Include the exact challenge or assignment name (spell it as shown in-game).
  • List your platform, mode(s) attempted, and whether you were in official playlists or custom Portal matches.
  • Describe the actions taken and what the tracker showed before and after, including any screenshots of end-of-match results.
  • Mention your account level to rule out unlock gating.

Providing precise names and reproducible steps helps the team reproduce and prioritize the right fixes.


If you’re chasing camos, weapons, or assignment rewards, the safest move right now is to target challenges that aren’t on the broken list and save the affected ones for after the next updates. The frustrating part is that many of these are Support and Engineer staples; the good news is they’re identified issues, not edge cases, and they’re on the fix list.
