KNOWN ISSUE: Weekly Contracts progress stuck

Issue Description: My weekly Melk contracts are not updating, or are not receiving any progress. I have been stuck at 3/25 missions played, and 3/12 grimoires picked up for 3 missions now. I believe the other values may not have changed as well. Have tried changing characters and restarting the game.

Issue #1:
I’ve been playing Darktide with 3 of my friends, they appear to receive Emperors gifts every 2nd game or so. I’ve played over 60+ matches with them on my Ogryn and I have not received any Gifts. I am curious if this is a bug, or i’ve just been super unlucky?

Issue#2:
While completing the same Contracts with my friends. My friends have received recognition or have completed their contracts, while my Ogryn still has zero recognition of any contract progress.

I am playing Darktide on Steam, a few of the contract examples are “pick up 12 Scriptures”, “melee 750 Dreggs”. The only contract that appears to of worked is “Complete 15 missions”.

I have tried restarting the game/computer. Game doesn’t crash. Been having fun, but this is a little frustrating.

I have attached last mission log that received no recognition/gifts & launcher log.

Hi @Tingles,

As for the first issue, this will be due to bad luck. May the Emperor bless your coming missions! :pray:

As for contract progression, there is a known issue we are aware of and investigating. I’ll merge this with the pinned topic.

Apologies for the inconvenience whilst we iron this out!

Had this happen again today with both Complete 25 Missions and Collect 25 Scriptures. Got stuck on 5/25 missions and 13/25 Scriptures.

I queued directly into a level 2 mission with scriptures and was joined into a Mission In Progress(they were about 70% done) that had 3/3 scriptures. Completing that mission should have put me at 6/25 Missions Completed and 16/25 Scriptures, but did not.

You’ve been investigating since the 26th. We’ve told you in beta. Hell, the end game screen always says “0 kill 0 deaths” even. Tracking stats is the simplest thing you can do in a game and it’s still not fixed… so I’m not surprised the leaderboard wasn’t added, AND you have a 7 day timer on weeklies that don’t track to rub salt in the wound. Your project manager needs to go; It’s that simple; they’re not qualified. This is beyond infuriating and I’ve been closing the game more and more to go play something with both working systems and actual retention, and a mission screen I don’t need to stare at for 30 minutes WAITING for something that would even have the weeklies I need (I don’t need to see 10 missions with scriptures and 0 with grims, or vice-versa. I was okay with it in beta, figured full release would be a release. I was annoyed with it for a few patches after “early access” full release, and now I’m livid that the weeklies are still stuck after the community telling you, and penances questionably tracking kills. I won’t even go off topic on the hit reg, needless nerfing, and plethora of infuriating bugs that weren’t in beta (and overall BETTER experience) that keep getting introduced every, single new patch.

tl;dr: Nobody wants to pick up 200 scriptures to get 25 to register, and nobody wants to pick up 50 grims to get 12… and there have been a lack of them lately, so who knows if they’re not stuck under the geometry, and even then god forbid you get the FatShark special where you can’t even pick it up… then there are no patches for weeks… so I hope you have something big planned.

There’s zero reason to play atm. There’s nothing in terms of retention. There’s no crafting, everything’s broken, even basic “team kills and deaths” are tracked at 0. The penance for killing heretics, scabs, and dregs is questionable. No wonder there’s no leaderboard… it would just say 0 across the board. I open it for 30 minutes once in a while just to stare at the terribly designed mission board, just to realize going to bed is a better way to spend my time for a dice roll on whether or not the game will even work.

Great game if you like to see numbers go big in terms of currency and materials… since there’s nothing to do with them. The shop is all trash, melks is all trash, and hilariously the in-game currency cosmetic shop has a 60 minute timer, to refresh the same stuff over and over.

Love the flash missions… oh wait. Early Access so they’re not added yet. Live service gaming at its best of the worst.

My frustration is immeasurable and my patience is wearing down.

Just give me access to the closed beta again, at least that was fun and seemed to work better overall.

I just had this happen again.

Joined a level 3 with scriptures, directly. Was joined into a mission in progress(had just gotten underway). We found all three 3 scriptures, I got zero progress on Mission Completes and Scriptures.

Wondering if this has to do with joining missions in progress?

No. It happens either way.

I never heard of a company making people pay $40-60 to squash bugs for them before either, with theories. It’s wild how they’re handling this. Usually they pay people to do it by hiring QA and playing their own game in-house.

Hello,

Issue Description:

I was experiencing the scriptures not progressing the contract issue as well. I have been keeping track of my progression and most of the times it seem off. I’m usually playing with my friends in a 2-3 man squad. very often my friends will be awarded contract progress, but I will not. Seems like this issue is exclusively with side objectives like scriptures and grimoires collection quest. I can’t tell if playing solo with random squads is making this issue less severe like mentioned somewhere in this tread as I’m playing solo quite rarely.

Thanks for help

Issue Description:
Before attempting a weekly mission, completion was at 2/6, I ensured the correct mission, and that it had secondary objectives, joined the mission and the mission was in progress. We completed the mission with 2/3 scriptures, and once loading back into the hub and checking progress, it had not incremented to 3.

This has happened a few times last week and this week now.

  • Joining a mission part way through isn’t the only condition for it not counting, I’ve initiated missions that failed to update too.
  • Ensuring you have full scripts or grimoires can also fail to update too, in this case I had 2/3, but having 3/3 can sometimes fail too.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. obtain challenge objective (Complete secondary objectives on mission )
  2. Initiate mission on the mission listed, along with ensuring secondary objectives are available
  3. Complete mission, and check the weekly contracts
  4. Notice that occasionally they do not update.

Feedback
I think this type of mission is a pain weekly too, as for a casual working gamer… There is too much ‘chance’ as to whether you can even do this mission.

It is possible to come online and only have time for 1 mission on a day, check the missions and either the mission you require is not available, or it is available and has no secondary.

This makes it frustrating to complete, especially with the quantity required, and the random chance of it being available. When missions refresh they should check to see if you have this kind of contract and ensure at least 1 of that type is available at all times. Or change the kind of mission to just require completion of a number of secondary objectives, and not bind it to a certain level, or at least bind it to a ‘tier’ of difficulty (Which is appropriate to your level) rather than chancing the mission not being there.

I’ve picked up, and had others in my non fireteam groups also pick up scriptures repeatedly, but my progression on that weekly contract is locked at 2 (I’ve picked up 3 or 4 since then and had at least as many of by others in my squads)

Issue Description:
when doing weekly challenges progress is not properly recorded.
all mission types will freeze progress after a certain period of continued play
Unsure as to what is causing it but my progress will fail to update anymore after glitch occurs until missions reset.

Completed two missions today with 2/2 grims. Was 8/12 before, I’m still 8/12 after switching characters, restarting the game several times, and waiting a few hours. By my count, all of these should be done except for Monstrosities.

Okay, first and foremost, fix this bug fast. I’m frigging tired of it, after spending so much time even trying to complete these asinine weekly quests, to have half of them not even count. I just lost yet another full game’s worth of progress that included two grims and a daemonhost kill.

Second, here’s the log of the most recent bugged game.

I have run several missions gathering scriptures, killing dregs and scabs with melee, and no team members going down. None of the weekly contracts are progressing. I even get the pop up during the mission that the kill 750 dregs with melee contract is completed. Looking at the contracts once back to Mourningstar… no progress in any contract… not even the kill 750 dregs with melee that popped up during the mission saying I completed the contract.

Issue Description:
Weekly contracts are not progressing or progressing sporadically. I also cannot change a fourth challenge. I try to pay the money, and nothing happens.

Latest log (attached, contains a session where it actually did progress one objective, the grimoires. But melee kills didn’t progress at all, and hasn’t the entire week.

Steps to Reproduce:
[Please add the steps that can help our QA department in reproducing the issue. For example:]

Challenge objectives obtained from Sire Melk

Played missions

No progress recorded.

Played a variety of missions, with, and without other players in the strike team. Didn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to what made progress work on the first day or so, but it seems totally stuck now.

Kind of totally removing a reason to continue to play until this gets fixed.

After playing for a while this primarily seems to replicate on missions that you joined in-progress. Possible bug in mission tracking. Updated logs attached.
