Currently, there is a bug with the medals and the leaderboards of Battlefield 1. The developers have now responded.
Medals in Battlefield 1 are supposed to change weekly and offer you different mission objectives. For example, you should free a certain number of pigeons or win rounds of a specific game mode. The objectives of the medals are divided into different levels, increasing in difficulty. However, there is currently a bug that prevents the correct medals from displaying.
Medals and Leaderboards Display Issue – Medal Bug
Many players have issues with the display of the current medals. Often, the problem manifests itself by showing last week’s medals, and one cannot select a current medal. Also, the leaderboards at the end of a round are not displayed correctly or at all for some players. On Twitter, the Lead UI/UX Designer of Battlefield 1, Erik Ortman, announced that they are already working on a solution to the errors. Both the issues with the weekly medals and the problems with the leaderboards are expected to be fixed soon.
