It works, I used coins to destroy some cameras.

In the normal game, if a target spots you SA is temporarily voided until the target is dead (assuming nothing else prevents you from getting SA before or in the meantime). This is not the case in Freelancer and if you are spotted by a target any SA challenge is voided forever.
I have noticed in general that Freelancer objectives often diverge from their main game/contracts equivalents and I have never really liked any of these divergences (to give a separate example I personally was not a fan of how Perfect Shooter was changed in Freelancer to include cameras and the recorders. I always figured that the point (among other things like restricting accidents) was that you couldnāt shoot cameras from afar and had to disable them the āhard wayā i.e. sneak into the security room).

It seems to me that some missions of the 3rd syndicate are bugged like that, but only for prestige objectives that are completed upon exiting the mission. I completed a territory takedown in Miami with SANF and was not awarded for it.

Apologies if this is already mentioned above, but the music is totally bugged in the safehouse right? No matter what choice I pick, the game only plays the theme music. [Edit: This is on PS4.]
Also, current ETs and āPlay Freelancer now with just one button pressā should be on the very first menu page of this game. Itās absurdly bad UI design that they are not.

I had the same issue with the music before the patch. Strange how it seems that only some people got anything from the patch and others didnāt.
I also agree with your point on the menu. I get the idea behind making the freelancer window really big when it first came out so people who werenāt following the roadmaps would know about it, but itās been a while now and I think at this point they can shrink it down to make room for things like the ETs or FCs.

Totally agree on the main menu needing a change. Personally Iād rather they put ETs on the front page instead of the āPlay in VRā tile. How many people even play in VR anyway? Also, I find it funny theyāre still advertising Ambrose Island as a New Location when itās over 10 months old.

Iām going to assume that Perfect Shooter will no longer be affected.
There must be something with that mod that changes how the game recognizes cameras. 
The camera glitches out when starting in the safehouse in the āBerlin DJā version of the Practice Space. This has happened every time I loaded in this starting location. It can be fixed by simply moving the camera but it looks really weird.

Ugh. I guess they didnāt care about the bugs that were reported during the CTT at all - because I specifically remember reporting this way back then.

Not sure if this is a bug but ever since the freelancer update, the DAK X2 Covert in the main game is now the DAK X2 Covert Special when it never used to have special in the name
Also why arent the scrap smg and brine damaged smg listed here

Not entirely sure what they did but they wanted to have the Dak X2 Covert as an Epic weapon, but for some reason, have a duplicate version of it as a rare version too. Itās definitely a bit odd!

The rare version doesnāt have āspecialā in its name so itās technically a different weapon, although they still look exactly the same :x

Iām certain I never changed my disguise! So I canāt fathom how I lost the āSuit Onlyā objective.
Doors stay lockedā¦ I never unlocked a door either. Well, I never had to. Does going through them from the unlocked side count against this? 
Edit: This was in FL Variations. I finished one in Whittleton Creek with no unlocking doors (yet going through the unlocked side) and didnāt lose this objective.
Were you wearing The Lucky Ducky Suit?
Either Phantom or Undying Look. Definitely not that 
suit.

Does anyone ever get into a case of Syndicate members just disappeared and leaving you no choice but exiting the missionā¦lost half money and gears and left remaining locations high alerted because of a bugā¦

I think itās just this target specifically. Iāve had it before and I know others have too.

It unfortunately sometimes happens (Iāve experienced it 3 different times)
If itās a showdown, you can call a meeting and they will usually walk back into the world (after enough time, depending). Still really wacky though

This one is a little different (targets walking off like in your screenshot has always happened in the game). This one on Mumbai, the target falls under the map and just stands there instead of walking in a straight line.

Not sure what system youāre playing on, but (if PC) Alt+Tab back to the desktop, go to settings (or just pin the gear to your taskbar), internetā¦ then disconnect the wifi from there.
Back in the game you should have the option to return to the main menu.
Or donāt since thereās an in-game challenge for leaving without completing all objectives (so many times).
