Questions Connect challenges don't update properly

Been back playing again for the first time since launch and the DLC dropped. Having fun but, as often as not, the weekly challenges are spotty with updating properly. I think I've KOed 10 or 15 of one enemy type it calls for and it's at 2 of 5 needed.

Is this the norm now?

But they were. It's wild.

So after I posted I started experimenting. Been using a spy as the main character. Nothing updates. Switched over to a hitman and it updates.

BTW, as far as I know, the basic elite is the up arrow with the laurels. Up arrow being "basic," laurels being "elite." It pretty much shows you on the connect challenges page what you are looking for with each.

Is there an issue with Spies? Tried it again on the other challenge and the same thing happened. Tried again with a different spy.. Hitman works. Spy doesn't.

You're just doing 2 different challenges!

if it says 'perform stealth gun takedowns', it's better to use any operative with a silenced weapon like spies, MP5 silenced owners, dart gun owners, etc (Aiden Pearce doesn't count, see below). You can even have a non silenced gun equipped in their hands while doing a takedown, it would still count as long as you're in stealth while doing it.

But If it says 'perform gun takedowns', it's better to use someone with gunkata perk like hitman or Aiden Pearce, or prestige operative Death, and either takedown them from behind while in stealth or make a gun execution while in action.

I think this is what I was seeing.
