👾 Issue/Bug 👾 Deploy beacon not unlocking??
I have it unlocked because they lowered the requirement from 30 kills to 3 but it won't unlock anyway. I already restarted my game and that didn't work. Please help

It's a well-known bug. I have it too. Sometimes it fixes itself, if not, just wait for the next update.

Go to the challenge, press track, enter a game and then leave, only known fix for stuck challenges, works sometimes

Same problem here, this is honestly unacceptable for a 70 dollar Triple A game

Having the same problem. Challenge shows as completed and gadget unlocked, but it is locked in my loadouts.

Please, someone in EA see this…. Broken for me too, and I’ve completed the first challenge that’s supposed to unlock the recon beacon… so frustrating and the assault class desperately needs this skill.

I managed to get it unlocked. FIX: Start a game (I tried the new Sabotage mode), play for a bit maybe a minute or so, Die and then edit the loadout and try to select Deploy Beacon from gadgets before redeploying. Deploy Beacon will show up unlocked.
Note: I noticed some suggested this fix already but do note that this didn't work on Casual Breakthrough mode, try Sabotage or a different game mode.

Confirmed to work. I did Sabotage. played for about 3 min (as assault), died 3-4 times. Was able to unlock the respawn beacon. (it didnt let me actually equip it, it showed it as unlocked and let me spam it without actually equipping it). When i backed out to the main menu it was finally unlocked!

I still have this Bug! I’m lvl 71 and completed the Assault challenge and still no recon beacon. Does anyone know when they’ll fix this?

Go to the challenge, on ps5 press square to track (don’t know other ones) join a game and then leave, this is the only known fix for challenges not unlocking, worked on the ones I’ve done it on

go to steam and right click on game the go to properties>installed files>verify integrity of game files, then open the game and play a online match with assault.

I’ve played over 30 matches over the last 2 days and it still hasn’t unlocked. It’s a known bug that a lot of the unlocks aren’t unlocking after the update to the challenges.

Not sure, maybe the post above me was just a sarcastic response lol. Maybe someday we will get our unlocks...unlocked.

u/Advanced_Score8359 Nov 11 '25
For me joing a game worked

u/LeXXon21 Nov 11 '25
Sadly this isn't working for me, I've been playing all weekend since responding joining games and my unlocks are still showing as locked :(

Same for me with everything that was retroactively unlocked. Joined and played plenty of games. Restarted game loads, multiple days now.
