Why Are MW3 Daily and Weekly Challenges Not Working?

According to players on Reddit and elsewhere across the internet, an in-game bug is the culprit as to why the MW3 daily and weekly challenges are not tracking/working. It’s an annoying bug causing many to scramble to the web looking for a solution since plenty of substantial in-game rewards are behind completing them – players can also accumulate good XP this way.

The official Call of Duty Updates account on X has said that it’s working on a way to fix the daily and weekly challenges not working in MW3. But the developer has been knocking down issues left and right since its release, including long load times and crashes when entering the Weapons tab, so it’s only a matter of time before things are back to normal.

I’d recommend keeping an eye on that account for an official update on the matter, but meanwhile, there are a couple of things you could try to fix this.

Can You Fix the MW3 Daily and Weekly Challenges Not Working Bug?

Funnily enough, this same issue plagued Call of Duty: Modern Warfare four years ago, and at the time, players were trying all kinds of tricks or weapons to complete them. Currently, your best bet is to wait for the developer to issue a patch because it’s a server-side issue that players won’t be able to fix. Before throwing in the towel, keep playing to see if you can complete the challenges despite what the counter displays. In past games, players have ignored the counter and managed to finish them after restarting the game, meaning you could get lucky. But if not, consider waiting for the developer to solve this problem soon.

And that’s how to fix MW3 daily and weekly challenges not working.
