Mission bug, or is this not a bug?

Dodgy wireless internet, so sure it’s my problem if I get disconnected. But here’s the thing.

If your mission is to complete 25 rounds in Execution, that mission updates round by round. So even if you get disconnected mid game, it still updates your progress on that mission when you re-open Dirty Bomb.

But with Stopwatch and Objective it doesn’t. If the mission is to get 10,000 total XP and you get 12,000 and get disconnected mid game, you don’t get anything for that mission. You have to start all over again.

Dunno if it’s a bug or not, but it is annoying either way.

It is not a bug, just a weird design behavior.

BUT I am fine with it because:

  1. Execution missions are a pain in the ass to do. It would be hell to lose any progress over disconnections.
  2. If objective/stopwatch modes still granted XP when you get disconnected, some people might abuse it and leave a game early on. Losing their XP progress is kind of a penalty for leaving.

To be fair I’ve seen people leave execution games early aswell, because they start the game only needing 1-2 games to finish the mission, and since they hate execution they don’t hang around any longer than they need to haha.

But fair enough then. Just thought I’d check.

If you disconnect in the middle of game… and reconnect back. you lose all exp earned that map and all credits, but your K/D ratio would still show? :frowning:
Happened few times… at the end screen of a match, at the bottom of the list with EXP 0, and k/d was like 15/15 :smiley: funny to see that
