On the 30th of December 2024 we became aware of an issue in which players were unable to start Havoc missions. On the 31st of December 2024, this issue was resolved.

This week only, players will receive their rewards as expected but may not see the notification pop-up.

Existing reports relating to this issue will be merged here, to help us keep track of new issues being reported.

### Issue Type (Required):

We lost while i was in a prior havoc mission, I then open the havoc menu and the weekly rewards popped up then crashed the game. I start the game and open the havoc menu and it is completely bugged. There are 2 layers of menu UI and it blinks inttermittently. Nothing I can do solves the issue. I can still join groups but the game still thinks I abandoned a match in havoc and refuses to let me play another havoc mission. It’s been way after the fact after my previous havoc mission. Havoc is completely broken for me… Please help… Ive tried everything… This is onyl somthing fatshark can fix on their end…

### Steps to Reproduce (Required):

I think I am unable to start a new havoc mission because the game thinks I did not accept my Havoc reward from the previous week. I am unable to claim it so I am not able to play…

exactly the same for me, I had just completed lvl 40 of Havok, the rotation occurred, I was stuck at 39 and with the HUD all bugged, and whenever I spend more than 10/20 seconds with the Havok HUD open it simply crashes.

Likewise. Finished 40 last week, I hit escape on the reward screen and ever since, it’s the first menu flickering endlessly, no reward granted.

No crash, but still no reward and bugged menu.

I also have this flickering screen issue and cannot start any havoc games because it always says that someone can’t even though none of us were in ongoing missions.

Fun fact btw.  
If your party got struck by classical bug when “mission got abandoned”, and now you cant start another havoc cause “previous havoc must end”, you can click play with your broken assignment and it will cancel this bug xD

this page didn’t even update (and its flickering), it still says my Highest Assignment Rank completed this week: 40 which is false, and even if it tells me i’ve opened the chest it won’t count towards the progress for the penance

Yeah. The HUD in Havoc screen keeps flickering to me. It crashes if I reach the Party Finder and try and back out.

I swear, if I lose my current rank (20) to this stuff not being fixed within a week, then I’ll be mighty upset.  
Why does things ALWAYS WITHOUT FAULT break when Fatshark goes on vacation?
