Random Item Drops on Map

Does anyone know if Apex has something in place of how many of certain items are dropped in games?  Like the percentage of weapons that are Mozambique, HAVOC, Triple-Take, etc. on the map?

I am wondering because it feels like match to match there are a decent number of P2020's, then the next match more Mozambique's and back-and-forth.  This goes for certain snipers, shotguns, Heavy (Flatline and Hemlock) and R301 vs. G7 Scout on a game by game basis.

It may be random that it is noticed over a 6-7 game stretch, but the likelihood of that is pretty unusual and seemingly impossible.

Also, what's with the "random" drop locations of weapons, ammo, shield etc.?  By this I mean why can I find 4 of the same weapon / item in a certain house or house + pill-box?  I thought there was something in place to keep from too many like items to drop in a small (20-30m area) for diversity of weapons and play styles.

  • They usually drop randomly but they can control how many of each drop like the devotion is rare cause it was OP.

  • @GrandDoodie Iv noticed a pattern myself too.. some games are loaded with r301 and with some you find more wingman's then all squads combined could carry.

    I think the crafting has something to do with it.

    @Heli0sH00K that would make sense especially because it is removing certain items from the game to be put into crafting. I definitely feel like weapons like lets say the R-301 and devo are rarer because they are amazing weapons. For me all I can find is L-stars and I hate the L-star.
