Double drops = fun
I am enjoying the game so much more this weekend, and it's because of double drops. This drop rate should become the new normal. The "normal" drops are really, really frustrating, and ought to be retired.

- No chance of scheduling repeats. You'd just complete this game collections and wonder off to the next digital crack game.
Just think of them like finding a fiver on the floor. It's not much, but you didn't have it beforehand.

Well, 2 times zero is still zero. I did 144 energy (12x) on 6A and not only did I not get any of the reinforcement mats, I didn't even get any Barris shards from it. I'd prefer 100% drop over 2x bonus
Yup I got 0 shards from Shore trooper over sat and sun. Yes I sim'd all 8 battles each day"Pob;c-1561502" wrote:

I didn't mean to sound ungrateful. If I did, it was a mistake. I was just proposing an idea that would make this game much more excited! I haven't had one complaint about double drops. It's been so great, I am sad to see it go. I'm just throwing out an idea and hoping it sticks."HershBathens74;c-1560582" wrote:

The droprates stay the same, only the result is doubled.
Btw...
I did 48 fights for Sion shards in two days (always simming 4, so 12 attempts) and got 0 (zero!) shards out of it, so I really don't care about doubledrops anymore.- ^^^ouch. I bet CG reduces the chances on all nodes so that way people wouldn't get crazy amount of shards...like when businesses do 40% off sales or something, they increase the regular price so they don't really lose too much money.
So I bet CG does the same. Someone said its 30% drop rate...probably reduced it to 20%
That's so unfortunate "Fatzke;c-1561611" wrote:

Welcome to my world ... this happens to me on every single double event. However i know, others get their drops at regular rate, so the rate (ya, %-chance meant in this case) seems to stays the same (for them)."NgH;c-1561630" wrote:
I'm sure that CG follows some kind of metric that is supposed to keep spenders motivated to spend while at the same time giving them the minimum reward to keep them engaged. But metrics won't account for player frustration and fatigue over time, and I don't know if they are seriously considering that side of things, and the potential long-term impact not addressing it could have on the game.
It requires some skills to build such a metric. You've seen the updates coming from them? Do you really think, they can do better than (result = get_rnd()*x) ??"Whatelse73;c-1560520" wrote:

I got 0 reinforcement materials in over 30 tries. I was so pissed, that I just about chucked my phone across the room. Ended up doing mods for the rest of the double drop period.
