Wrecks... supposed to be devoid of stuff?

Just wondering, people seem to find the best stuff in wrecks but after exploring 14 wrecks and debris fields I've come away with... not much. Not a single scannable item, furniture, or other valuable has been behind the doors that require a laser cutter and only three pieces of furniture or so, mostly from the minor wrecks/debris fields. Most of them don't even have scrap metal to pick up (I mean, they are made of scrap metal at this point... ) So, is this intentional/unimplemented/experimental-only sort of thing or am I bugged?

    You should be able to find scannable furniture in wrecks, so if you don't that's peculiar. But no fragments is common. In three save files, I've only ever found one wreck with fragments inside. It's random whether they have and I think it might dependent on whether you've already found fragments in the border areas. For the time being, that's "intentional", but the plan is to move most fragments to wrecks in a future update. Not sure about the future of pickupables, which for now are exclusive to the minor wrecks.

    Yeah, there must be a bug somewhere. It's eventually intended that when you complete a piece of technology, the fragments for that particular piece of tech will be 'removed' from the spawn tables.

    During the previous patch I was finding a lot more tech inside wrecks than I do now. For example, solar panels & seaglide fragments I was getting in the wrecks around the safe shallows, mod station fragments I was getting inside the underwater island wreck, and so on. The Power Nap update seems to have moved things back into the environment, although looking on the ground around the wrecks is still a good way to find things.

    Things still aren't finished, they haven't even gotten around to "fine tuning" things. So expect things to change. Does that mean there will be more scan-able fragments in the wrecks? I don't know, we'll just have to wait and see.
    keep in mind though, for every change you want in the game, there's someone else that doesn't want that change and will complain just as loudly. It's nice that the devs listen to the fans, BUT giving the fans too much say isn't so good. Remember the whole Single airtank/Multi airtank situation?

    Was more curious if my game was bugged than requesting things, so many pictures of nifty things found in wrecks from people around the forum I've been disappointed that I haven't found much other than luggage. I don't think I've got any frags left to find, but I want furniture to decorate my base with dangit, lol. (and that blasted ninja coffee machine >.< )

    Thank you all for the responses. Tis much appreciated.

    At lunch today I found some fragments inside one of the Grand Reef wrecks, so they do still work some of the time.

    As of right now on Xbox at least I know if I want to find the water fragments to check in or around the grassy wreck or the koosh wreck. And I've also found propulsion cannon and stasis rifle fragments aswell.. For the most part tho the others are barren (minus chairs,desks etc)

    Yeah, this is definitely a bug, we think to do with streaming. There are a lot of fragment slots inside the wrecks, but for some reason they aren't spawning in game properly, and it does seem like the problem has gotten worse. Hopefully we'll be able to look into this more once we get this giant Xbox / PC branch merge fully sorted out.

    Its Great to see more confirmation That the Xbox update (patch?) Is still getting more love! For the Most part the Facebook page and Twitter account have been silent! I think june 1st was the vert last post. Regardless I cant wait and I know theres others holding thier breath for its release aswell ;)
