ISSUE EXPERIENCED
DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). Limit to ONE issue per thread.
When completing the “Pirates” mission, the next mission that starts is “Company Confrontation” in the Indian campaign. I now have the entire Indian campaign unlocked despite not playing it.
When I first attempted to complete “Pirates” the victory screen would not go away. The game was stuck in a soft freeze (audio still playing). I had to close the game in task manager. When I opened the game again and clicked continue from the main menu, the Indian campaign load screen showed, but the “Pirates” mission played. At this point it was WAD as far as I know, although the loading screen stuck out.
I completed the mission for a second time, at which point it went into “Company Confrontation”.
In addition to fixong “Pirates!”, there needs to be a way to reset individual campaign progress so I can relock the Indian campaign and keep my Blood Ice and Steel progress.
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST.
- 50% of the time / matches I play (FREQUENTLY)
As far as I know, this could happen 100% of the time. I’m not going to spend another hour playing the same mission for a third time until this is confirmed fixed.
REPRODUCTION STEPS
List the DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue… Be descriptive!
Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:
- Complete the “Pirates!” mission.
Alternatively:
- Play the “Pirates!” mission
- Force close the program when the victory notification comes up
- Click continue, and replay “Pirates!” to see if the next mission is “Company Confrontation”.
EXPECTED RESULT
What was supposed to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?
The next mission in the Blood, Ice and Steel campaign would play. The Indian campaign would not have randomly unlocked completely.
ACTUAL RESULT
What actually happened (what went wrong) because of the issue you’re reporting?
The incorrect mission “Company Confrontation” began after “Pirates!” and the full Indian campaign was unlocked despite not playing it.

IMAGE & ATTACHMENTS

Not much to see. Bood Ice and Steel and stuck on Pirates and the Indian Campaign is fully complete despite never playing it.
EDIT: I clicked on one of the Indian missions looking for a way to reset progress and saw this. The continue option for Blood Ice and Steel now leads to the first Indian mission. Seriously, if there is just a way to reset campaign progress so I can play this over the weekend…
