Challenges Not Unlocking

[ProperNerd]

I unlocked the challenge for smothering Silvio with a pillow, but for some reason I didn't unlock the challenge for starting the therapy sesssion (which I did, in fact, start). I also did the sniper rifle challenge, and I'm positive I wasn't spotted. There's just no way I was. Yet, the challenge didn't unlock. I also dressed up as a delivery guy, and placed flowers on the mom's grave yet...nothing. Is this happening to anyone else? And before anyone asks, yes, I'm online.

Yeah, I've had it several times since the Sapienza update. When I complete the challenge, it pops up in the top-right corner that I've done it, but after completing the level, it doesn't give me the challenge.

Sometimes I've been able to get around it by saving JUST before escaping, and if it doesn't give me the challenge, I reload my game, escape again, and it gives it to me.

There seems to be a timing issue with the challenges, where enough real time has to pass before you can have the challenge awarded to you at the end of the mission.

I had a strange experience when I last played the game, where I was awarded challenges from the PREVIOUS run through and none of ones I just did were shown at the end. Then, when I played the mission again, I got all of the challenges that I should have gotten previously and again none of the new ones, so the challenges were out of sync with my playthroughs. I noticed that the challenges were correctly triggering and appearing in game once the conditions were met, so it might be some weird server thing.

This is happening again right now. None of them show up after the mission yet they pop in game.
On reload they did unlock after the mission but the chapter progress bar is stuck

Something must be up with Square Enix's servers tonight, Just Cause 3 was disconnecting alot too.
EDIT: finally it worked but the popup doesnt happen in game.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say it has to do with the real time update between the offline/online saves.

Meaning, when you play, you do achieve certain things and unlock challenges which are coded in the game so the game tells you immediately by poping out in game during the playthrough.

But it doesn't upload to the servers to inform them that you have achieved/unlocked those until you finish, but your already at the rating menu when that happens so of course, you don't see anything until the game is refreshed by something like closing and reopening or playing another mission etc.

That's just my opinion...

The easy fix is to keep a save game, where you're right at the end of a mission (any mission) in front of the exit. So whenever you complete challenges and finish the level/exit, you then load this save game and just exit. This will show the chalenges.
