Pin counter problems

After completing a task from the reward/challenge list (and even after handing it over to the captain), the pin counter does not update. Video

Restarting the game completely resets the pin counter. Video I don’t know how it was intended, but it looks broken.
It is also unclear why the number of pins is limited to six. I want to see the maximum possible, that is eight.

Apparently, this is a common problem. Because when I got a new quest, I found the same thing.

@Silas-Inservio-Pax Oh my :joy: ! It’s the not-so-obvious “pin” mechanic. It keeps track of how many pins there are, and the maximum is six.

Oh you gotta explain this a bit more please!

Do you mean map markers? Or maximum amount of bounties/challenges that can be displayed?

I thought it was a kill/action counter. But it turns out it’s a pin counter.

The whole problem is that the counter is next to the quest name. I have not seen such an implementation.

Anyway, I figured out the mechanics. But I still found an error. I updated the post and attached the video.
Sorry for the confusion :sweat_smile:

This issue remains in the current patch.

Platform/Input: PC — Xbox controller

Where: Menu → Challenges → Weekly → Civic Duty

Observed (from screenshot):

  • In the left list, Civic Duty shows 1/15

  • In the challenge details, it shows Progress: 11/15

Expected: The progress value should be consistent across the list entry and the detail view (or clearly labeled if they represent different tracking).

Actual: The sidebar and detail pane show different progress numbers for the same challenge, making it unclear what the real progress is.

So you can pin bounties and challenges and then show them with N.
However every time you pin or unpin one, it disables this list on the UI.
This also makes the “Hold N” not visible. And the button also does not exist in the key bindings.
So most players will never know of this feature.

I would suggest if someone pins any bounty of challenge then turn on this UI list.
Then the player can see it, and he can hold N to hide it. I assume when someone pins something they want to see it right away.

Also the mouse over on this pin is kind of buggy, sometimes it shows the tooltip and sometimes it does not. This changes if you enable/disable it or switch between the tasks. So then its randomly working or not working.


And found another issue I just completed the brought to heel chop down birch trees but it remains there with 9/10:


If I then to to bounties UI I can see I finished it.


And when I go back the entire UI list is gone again, and again I have to press N to show me the list.
So upon completion of a task please update the list, and keep it visible if there are more tasks on this list.

I tested 2 more both chests/nameless exploration are completed and still show this:


If I hit map and back it removes these from the list, and just shows me the uncompleted ones.
When I go to the bounty / challenge tab , and back to game the list is removed.

So any time you go here in UI the UI pin list is removed from UI, and you have to press N again:
