The weekly challenge counter appears broken to me. I was lucky enough to have two challenges involving CTF at the same time. One for killing enemies carrying my flag and another for returning the flag.
Earlier today I played one of the most exciting matches I’ve ever had in Halo. A CTF game that was tied 1x1 until the very last second when sadly the enemy team managed to score 2x1.
But in that game I managed to both kill enemy carriers and return my flag many, many, times. I only received credit for one of those challenges, though. I cleared the ‘kill 3 enemy carriers’ challenge in that one single game, but I didn’t get any progress for returning the flag.
And I think the game also did not count kills with weapons for some challenges as well. I’m sure I killed enemies both with the ravager and the plasma rifle in two separate games, yet I didn’t get any progress in the challenges for them.
I’m under the impression that I don’t make any progress in the first game where I complete a new challenge, only from the second one forward.
I just wanted to add that I used a few challenge swaps, maybe that has something to do with the issues I found.
… and that is a very frustrating issue. That challenge-based progression system is awful enough already when it works, but when you see all your hard work amount to nothing it feels heartbreaking.

Hey Megabro5382, can you do me a favor? Can you please head over to our Halo Support site and file a ticket on the specific challenges that are bugged for you pretty please. This will help the team in investigating various problems and work to get them resolved. Thank you so much!
There does seem to be some problems, yeah. Make sure you report the bug to 343 using their “submit a ticket” portal, though. As the message says, they don’t look for bugs here
