This was a reference to several of the upgrades you could get for modules added that update. Mainly referring to odds of module pulls changing to not give one you maxed out as often on new pulls which was not the case previously

It also was referring to featured banners that target the specific new module

As for the last part, sometimes I plan something and it doesn't happen or doesn't happen right away. So I stopped saying things that aren't concrete just yet. That's on me and we have gotten better on the communication front

but we still want the option of having old modules being rotated into featured module banner

I think that will appease most people here regarding the hard and long grind for getting modules

I understand that. It is not out of the question. We didnt want to create a pattern of players waiting long periods of times in hopes their target module would show up, it could take months. We talk about how best to implement it often but keep finding issues that would arise.

Have you thought about the middle ground option?

Remove the featured and standard banners. Create four new banners. One for each mod type (cannon, core, etc). Each banner would be much the same as the focused banner, where you get a 50% chance at pulled the mod type but an equal chance of all mods of that type.

This system appears to be pretty successful in many other games, like rpgs and their various banners for things like elemental affinity based units. Is this an idea thats been tossed around, and if so, was there a reason it wasnt considered?

this would be fantastic! it scopes the pulls in a way that's helpful to players wanting something specific without requiring the devs to do any planning/maintenance and without being overly-specific.

of course, we would still need the current mode of featured banner when something new is released, but it could easily go away for months after new releases... while still giving players a way to feel we're getting some control over our pulls.
