Hey I was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. its happened to me for well over a year at this point, but gaijin’s bug reporting interface is a nightmare to try to navigate so I came here. the most recent incident has been that I had the objective get 12 assists in battles with rank III vehicles or above, I met all the requirements, got 7 assists in one game, go back in and it only counted 4. literally no reason to not have 7 at least, so if anyone has any insight or similar issues please mention it.
I would check your line up, chances are something may have been tier II or something, and whatever “assists” you may have gotten with that vehicle did not count. About the only thing I can think that would cause some to count and others not to count. It takes some getting used to, but it is advisable to read the parameters very carefully for all of that stuff. Whether it’s Daily tasks, Challenges, event stuff . . . the wording can throw you off sometimes. I mean you get used to it and certain things have “quirks” in them anyway. But after you do enough of them, you kinda get the hang of whatever it is they are wanting for each individual task you come across. Hope that helps and good luck
Well that’s what I was saying, (this is in AGB btw), my entire lineup is III, I can even tell you what it is: M42 duster, M18 hellcat, the regular Jumbo, M4a3(76), M19a19 (which I didn’t use). Its not like I don’t know how the game works, I’ve played enough to remember back when there were only 4 trees. I double checked after the match, all tier III. also, A few months back, it was get kills with an spg, and I was using a 6.7 spg and it wasn’t counting. Just weird man.
Really need a replay to see the finer details - a description that “I did everything right” is pretty useless at figuring out if there is a bug or not.
Was this a daily task?
If you use the M18 to scout and someone kills the vehicle you scouted it will ‘count’ as an assist, but it doesn’t count the same as if you got a crit hit and then someone killed who you crit hit. If you hover over the assists at the end of the game it will say something like ‘for scouted vehicles’ for the scouts, and something else for the regular assist. So scouts don’t count to the task, but crit hit assists do.
That said, there are issues sometimes. the other day I had through the fire where you have to kill light and med tanks. I clearly killed 6 in one game, and only got credit for 4.
No offense intended, just some basic steps and pointers is all. Only other thing I can think of is sometimes not everything is credited immediately, but I don’t think I have ever seen “partial” awards given, so most likely something else.
yes it was, I might be able to find the replay, yeah I was really just putting this out there to see if I was the only one and if so what’s going on.
right, but when its by scouting it says that instead of just regular assist. You might be on to something though, if the people I had both crited AND scouted got killed, the task may see those as intel assists only. I’ll keep my eye on that if I get it again. Thanks for the idea.

Imho almost nobody is aware of the countless bugs and flaws within the game; they are hard to detect for most casual players and usually those players “getting robbed” by such flaws are usuall long dead and have left the game.
The story gets different if these bugs & flaws prevent you from progressing in daily / special / BP tasks - you start to see some flaws when you are directly affected.

About a year ago i scored the first and last strike in a match (Air RB), but i was not rewarded with the 5.000 SL reward (“mission decider”) and the progress of my special task.
-
After some email ping-pong with gaijin support (i provided the server replay link as evidence) i got rewarded with the missing 5.000 SL - but not with the progress within my special task.
-
In the next 3 weeks this happened again and again. I was forced to create a bug report the first time, ofc, the report is “open” and not processed.

I simply gave up to act on other issues as the support rewards you with missing SLs, but not with task progression. Btw - this “bug” still happens today on the same maps…i am able to notice this as i play for years with the same strategies on the same maps…
