he has a point, as a computer science major in college, there is no real random number generator, as they all get biases from the values they refrence called a seed in order to get their values. my hypothesis is that newer parts have less chances to get it in comparison to older ones (i.e. a 2% compared to a 10 or 20%) and the seed they use to refrence is likely a data value on your computer. that would explain why some people find some parts easily and never see others. so in layman's terms when you host a game, the game will look at your number value in order to determine the drop if someone else hosts, they look at theirs try to find someone who gets a lot of the parts you are looking for.

and before you ask it is unlikely we will be able to datamine and find the exact refrenced variable as it likely is not defined so explicitly it could range from the ASCII value of the first letter of your username to random number generator that changes what exactly it refrences from person to person
