Void Container Mod Drops Bugged

[LockedKeye]

I was playing with some friends in the Void and discovered that the loot dropping from Void containers is bugged.

 

While mods dropping from enemies operates as normal, mods dropping from containers are randomized--every player gets a different mod.  Also, if a waypoint is placed on the mod it simply says "module"--rather like what happens when a mod dropped by an Acolyte is marked.

 

We ran two T1 Exterminate missions to confirm this.

This is intended.

 

Mods obtained from void containers are different per player and has been this way since it's inception.

Really? This is the first I've ever heard of it, and I've been playing for almost 1,000 hours.

It's been this way since forever. which is why when u waypoint the mod, it says 'module' not the name of the mod you just picked up

That's been the case for ages. Rare mods are usually shared across clients, though random mods can be rare sometimes.

And I've been playing since Update 9.

 

I suppose it's a detail that can be easily missed.

The mods from the canisters have been always random to the same group. I dont exactly know why but got used to that long ago.

Probably to reduce lag/bandwidth use for dirt mods.
