Title: Blueprint drops should be instanced based
Post by: Power Penguin on April 06, 2018, 03:53:33 AM
Since blueprints have become a big part of the economy, they should really be handed out on a player by player basis. I'd rather have a lower chance of getting a blueprint but not have to roll, lose and get nothing. The game is soo close to having a good economy/progression but there are still those little things that really annoy.

Everyone should have individual loot drops.  I definitely agree.

If not what you two are saying the drop rate should be fairly common then.

Common drop rates won't fix the problem.  In this version of the game you could get every gun every forge level.  That's a lot of games where you are getting no product for your time investment.

Right, even a drop every match might help, but someone will always be jumping on those blueprints. I am tired of rolling for things that we all need to stand a chance against stronger mobs and players.

What if it's a ploy to incentivise playing antagonists? Hmmm.....

the solution to the problem is simple (if devs don't want to implement individual loot because in their mind this broken system is fun):

Each time you fail a roll you should get weapon parts. and once you have lets say 3 of them you could roll for a random blue weapon and mabye for 5 you could roll for a random yellow weapon. and if you would want to make it even more satisfying you could give the player to craft a specific blue for 7 and a specific yellow for 9 weapon parts (numbers are just placeholders to explain the system). This would completely solve the issue and still give players a sens of achievement and progress if they fail to roll for a weapon.
its just sad that the devs did not come up with something similar...

Fix the fact that the blueprints 90% time give blueprints to poeple on the left side of blueprints drops

This is pretty good, I've seen similar suggestions before. As it stands, it's silly that 4 people can roll for a weapon and 1 person gets it and the other 3 just wasted their time.

How about they make all blueprints available to both Raiders (split across the missions) and the full list available to antagonist. I have to play antagonist if I want a certain blueprint? Absolute rubbish! Isn't their whole idea "choose to play either Raider or ruin their day as the antagonist"?

THAT'S NOT A CHOICE WHEN I DONT LIKE ONE OF THE PLAYSTYLES, YET I'M FORCE TO PLAY IT TO GET THE REWARD I WANT.
