You do get the resources, your drg save file is never checked by gsg so you can do whatever you want to it.
For now.

Deep Rock Galactic is not a competitive game. Playing it is the experience.
That said, I was actually hinting at the opposite you are suggesting.
Edit: To elaborate; the goal is to not let mods influence vanilla games.
Kinda randomly wanting to drop a little feedback on the topic. Not that it matters much in an ocean of players and different viewpoints, but found this comment and just wanted to share my experience with DRG and specifically OCs regarding messing with save-files.
Overclocks are gated by weekly login AND rng. While I could deal with one:
- Weekly unlocks, time needed to unlock, but get to choose.
- RNG unlocks, but can keep grinding for more.Having it both gated behind the weeklys AND gated by rng (even if blank cores are 75% to atleast be the right class) it was enough for me to purposely seek out and use a save editor to give myself 2 OCs of my choice. If it was any of the ways above instead of the double-gated unlocking i'd never bothered "cheating" to get my stuff.
I remember some time ago when I cheated in Darkest Dungeon (Singleplayer Dungeon Crawler) and gave myself tons of resources and it ruined the game for me. So I was somewhat worried and cautious with allowing myself to have 2 OCs of my choice, still feared it could backfire. Thankfully it did not and I actually enjoy the game more now that I dont have to dread RNG-Jesus giving me bad luck.
Solution? I cant even say if one is needed. Or if this experience is shared by many players. (dissapointment in the gating, not the save editing) I guess one could consider removing one of the two "gating" mechanics or atleast give a montly assignment that lets you fully choose one OC you want. I wouldn't ever be so presumptions and say what I think "would be best", so this is really just one long feedback I wanted to type at a Dev, wanting the best for this amazing game. Rock and Stone!
I can see why it can be somewhat frustrating, but it’s IMO a very light gate. With the blank cores you do have the ability to push your rewards somewhat and you’ll get quite a few each week. I believe we chose to do this, because we wanted something that people could talk about - you now, those watercooler moments. Before the Deep Dives there weren’t anything that people could share outside the team they played with but these Weekly events have IMO been invaluable for us. We have people that still talk about specific Dives they did that very especially hard to complete, and that is really rewarding. Sure, some games let you pop the seal on all the content and grind it through in a week, but that’s not really what DRG is all about. The overclocks are fun additions, but they’re not the goal, and to be honest, I collected them all pretty quick by just playing the Dives on our stream + the occassional Weekly core Hunt assignment. I only have driller cosmetics left to collect at this point and that 185 blank cores available, so going for machine events could have gotten me there faster.
I know it’s not for everyone, but part of what we’re doing is also playing with concepts and ideas and experiment with what we feel works for future content and games.
