Drop Rate Speculation
- Thread starter weeman2412
- Start date
We played a lot over the last 3 days and you guys are not alone with it, same for me - multiple drops (Standard Headband) and for my friends (White Flatcap) but only one exemplar of it in our inventories.
Seems that the hotfix never solved the drop problem.
A little remark: Asked ten friends on steam what they got as their first drop.
8 - cosmetic items (Headbands, Flatcaps, AA12-Woodland skin), 1 - Usb, 1 - still no drop.

Its almost impossible to drop something. I played about 15 hours and I dropped 1 item. Headband Green...
I dont even know how rare the other items are.

Can anyone that has gotten more than 1 drop chime in. It's starting to look like the maximum drop is 1 per person.
I guess this is Tripwire's way to drive up prices on the market by limiting supply to get a hefty profit from the fees.

I got the following so far:
1 white headband, 1 purple headband, 1 green headband, 1 SCAR woodland camo skin. I got most of the stuff in the preview build. I'm either really unlucky since the update released or some tweaks were made.

I've gotten one USB, was in a solo game I died in, on an old map.
That was after maybe 2 hours of gameplay since the update. 25+ more hours since that, I've gotten nothing else yet. None of the 'false drops' either.
So I'd say if it's working as intended for me, it seems it's a timed cooldown thing. Maybe one drop per player per week is the intention, and the people getting multiple drops already are bugged luckily?

Played for about 18 hours in version 1016.
Normal, Hard, HoE.
4, 7, 10 waves.
Some custom maps, mostly official maps.
All on ranked servers.
Mostly wins.
I got no drops so far. People I played with reported occasional drops so it can't have been the servers.

I've probably played at least 16 hours (probably 3-4 hour increments) and have got 2 drops.
It went as thus-
Play two matches = Nothing
Hear people saying they got one in Solo.
Played one Solo match + one HMTECH101 Skin
8 more hours of gaming + one Mr Foster classic suit
6 more hours of gaming = nothing more?
My friend plays about 8 hours and only gets one drop after I tell him to try the Solo match thing.
If its set up to where a player has a "chance" to get a drop in a certain time frame increments it must be a very low % chance.

Sadly not my friend, sadly not.
LOL says the guy who got to preview the update and make a video!
Anyways you got a couple of drops... I wouldnt be surprised if the code includes if statements such as IF tw_employee THEN.... spam_dropitems(99) & IF forum_mod THEN spam_dropitems(5) .....
Okay.... okay... its a conspiracy!
