Where did all the intercepts go?

nonnel

I can count the number of intercepts I've received in the past few days on my fingers. Very sad

revskip

Normal amounts here. I got ten grinding PVE and DDQ earlier today and a few more tonight. On android, using my LG tablet.

Don't forget you had civil war which has less fights in which to potentially encounter them and also the hunt has a 48 hour sub which again greatly limits the chances of encountering them.

I don't think it's a game issue more a numbers issue

I thought this might be part of the problem but I counted my interceipts last two days (normal 1 day sub events in PvE) and two days ago I got around 8 and yesterday not even 5!

This is way less than what it used to be (I always get 10+). This is weird. I guess it is too early to know if I am just being unlucky, but I will keep counting...

PS: Between CW, new LRs and this my iso influx has been reduced A LOT !!! Is ISO super precious again ????

I think again this is still a numbers issue. Why do we encounter this problem ? Because the amount of intercepts you get is dictated by the gods of odds (1 in 20 if I remember correctly) this doesn't mean that in every 20 matches you're guaranteed a intercept. Sometimes you will get all your intercepts in a short time and others you'll miss out. Maths can be a fickle mistress.

Yeah that can be the issue certainly, but I will keep track the next days to see if this is what is happening. If I keep getting just 5 intercepts on average for a week, then probably, there might be something broken.

In the end I preferred the system before they changed the way we get the intercepts, we were getting them in a more consistent basis.

My intercepts slowed during Civil War. Last night I attacked the Unstable iso-8 event and intercepts were back to normal. I got about 10 of them through my four clears.

Android.

Love them VIP intercepts.

broll

I've seen normal amounts with the occasional off day where I don't get many here and there.

Felonius

As an Android user (and VIP, if relevant), I also feel there have been far fewer Intercepts for me lately.

Orion

I haven't seen a single intercept in over a week. iOS user here.

mjs0726

Same...no intercepts for nearly the past two weeks. On iOS

V1rusHunter

My iOS skip intercepts expired on Friday, and I was receiving videos to watch with some failing but working after force restart. I have not received an intercept since...

Black Duke

Playing on iOS I got only one intercept (and two which didn´t start) within the last 10 days. As they introduced them I got 6+ intercepts every day.

SnowcaTT

Wow, these shield intercept things sound like a great way to help with the huge ISO needs! Wish I could get them.

-Signed, every Steam player.

JVReal

Now that you mention it, I don't recall very many intercepts this weekend... and none in my final grind last night and start of next Event... very weird.

Figure15

iOS, been dry for a long time with only 1 about 5 days ago.

AXP_isme

I haven't had any for the whole period of unstable ISO-8 nor for the first clears on strange sights. I'm really beginning to notice the drop in resource flow from the lack of intercepts. It's the variability that people describe that seems most odd to me, though given the penchant for rewards to be tied to RNG I probably shouldn't be surprised.

@Brigby - any word on this from the dev team?

Jarvind

I think I found everyone's missing intercepts, I get them like crazy but they're all just elite tokens.

irwando

Definitely way down here too. Hit none yesterday in 3x clears of Unstable ISO8 and 4x clears of Sorcerer Supreme.

V1rusHunter

I got a lot of intercepts just yesterday V Day. Probably over 15.
