"Double" drops should have an asterisk next to it!

Drop rate doesn't change.

Also, you won't get bonus drops on shards this time, normal nodes only.

I'm aware it's not shards this time, but the drop rate definitely changes. I went from getting 3-5 gear pieces out of 10 sims to getting 4 for 29 and 1 for 20 on my most recent sims.

Except that it doesn’t change. You just happened to get unlucky. My gear drops have been great.

Disagree with OP.

Got this, then an 0/12.

Unlucky would be it happening 2 maybe 3 times. This is something i've noticed since in "double" drops for awhile now. Every single time i've dropped from about 25-30% avg drop rate to a 10-15% drop rate. I've actually done the math over an extended period of time so keep your opinions out of it. I've also had some good drops but then as FolsomTony shows you go right back to zip

We would love to see your data on this.

No statistical data to back it up (since nobody except developers has ), but my observation shows decent drop rates the first few times and now I hardly get any.
Specifically before I had about 3-4 per 12. Now I have 1-2 per 12 (with double drops)

Actually there is data all over the forums, you just gotta look. Hundreds of players saying the same exact thing, well something must be going on.

saying it != data

You must have got the first one in right before the drop rate changed

I know i'm not the only one who gets screwed over every time these "double" drops come around. Whether it's gear or shards the drop chances drop in half at best. I just went 4 for 29 on farming gear.

You're going to get minimal support on this issue, since the forum regulars have a copy and paste response to these posts. However, I'll have to say that I notice this trend as well. However again, you'll get no love from most people here. And with that, there will be no change, because $.
Of course, let ignore the fact that EA holds a patent to do exactly that.
