Battlefield 2042 recently upgraded to Season 2 and the update brought new weapons and the brand-new Stranded map. It also added an M95 Sniper Rifle to the Battlefield Portal.
The M95 Sniper Rifle was made available to play with the introduction of a hotfix which also guaranteed some other fixes.
However, it still left some issues unchecked. For instance, Battlefield 2042 attachments on some weapons have become unclaimable.
Battlefield 2042 AM40 attachments not unlocking
Battlefield 2042 players (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) are reporting an issue where they are unable to unlock AM40 attachments.
The issue has been troubling players for quite some time now where they are unable to unlock attachments of various weapons and ammo despite having enough kills.
The 30 round mag attachment appears locked even if players succeed at unlocking the AM40. There are also some cases when none of the attachments open.
Incorrect number of ammo in AM40 magazine
Apart from AM40 not unlocking, Battlefield 2042 players (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) are also facing an issue where the standard AM40 magazine isn’t showing the correct number of ammunition and weapons.
The new AM40’s Assault Rifle standard round magazine indicates that the bullet capacity is 30 rounds but the game only shows 20 rounds. So, standard round magazine bullet count is clearly incorrect in the game as compared to its stats menu.
Official acknowledgment
Fortunately, EA has acknowledged the issue where Battlefield 2042 AM40 attachments are not unlocking and said that the team is working on a fix.
However, the team is yet to comment on the issue regarding incorrect number of ammo in AM40 magazine.
Sadly, there is also no workaround that can help fix both Battlefield 2042 ‘AM40 incorrect mag’ and ‘attachments not unlocking’ issues.
We’ll update the article as and when something noteworthy comes up. Meanwhile, you can check out more coverage related to EA and gaming on PiunikaWeb.
