I'm afraid since discord appears to be ignored on this, that I must start making a new thread every day a reset occurs where a common blueprint does not show up for those of us in Tier 1.
Almost every veteran I know has only seen 1 common blueprint since the spacelords update, and that was the very DAY of the update. I hear there have been 2, at the most, but most players probably missed that 2nd one.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Please adjust whatever formula is being used to generate rotational rewards, MSE. My recommendations are:
1. Set the values for rewards to be a minimum of 1 per rotation, for both common and rare blueprints. Something like:
Common [1-3]
Rare [1-2]
Gold Very High [2-4]
Faction Very High [1-3]
XP boosters [0-1]
MAX ONE-TIME REWARDS [8]
These numbers are just suggestions of course, but veterans agree that the blueprint situation is currently ludicrous. Many of us log on, see there is no blueprint to be had, and log back off.
2. adjust values for how often rewards rotate. Make them much shorter, like 2 hours, so we can see more rotations, or just have everyone rotate 24 hours with a significant boost to mission rewards. 8 hour rotations cause some of us to only see 1 rotation per day, such as myself, due to the times the resets occur. 7PM-3AM CST is the only rotation I get to see on most days, literally happening when i get off work, and then again after i should already be sleeping.
3. Do NOT remove normal mission rewards on missions that are given one-time rewards. Currently, any mission that gets a 1-time reward then barely gives anything for subsequent completions, which HIGHLY discourages us from playing that map again until a rotation occurs.
4. Remove currently held blueprints (Duplicates) from the possible blueprint drop pool when finishing a mission that rewards blueprints. There are already several complaints of players getting a crazy amount of consecutive duplicate blueprints instead of the other blueprint within that drop table. Posts like getting Granny 7 times in a row, instead of Barrier. Alternatively, allow duplicate blueprints to give a large sum of gold if acquired. Currently, duplicates are just wasted rewards. If they at least did something, I'm sure players would be a lot less upset at getting the same weapon they have no need for 7 times in a row, but ultimately I believe removing those from the drop pool will be a better option.
