So I've come to notice that at least for my uncommons and ultra-rare, the game RNG does seem to push to character cards before anything else/they have a significantly higher drop rate until they max.
My uncommon characters all maxed way before my weapons or mods.
And as for my ultra-rares, I've gotten seven drops: the 5th and 7th were guns. The other five were all characters AND all different characters (so all of them).
1) While I'm decently happy that I have them unlocked, this doesn't even count as potential luck until a fix happens where kits get their standard 84 points at 20, or at least SIGNIFICANTLY more so that they're actually usable at rank 1.
2) Has this pattern been happening to anyone else? I wonder if they put in some kind of protocol that has character card drops as more likely.

I seem to get the weapons and the characters at about the same rate, but almost no weapon mods until weapons/characters are maxed. Currently I have about 80% of uncommon weapons/characters and literally 3 uncommon weapon mods.

yes, i noticed that as well. For ultras? What have you gotten? basically, character cards and n7 weapons drop pretty fast, but weapon mods take much longer. thats from a small sample pool but same thing happened when i bought basic packs.

Lol fast N7 drops. XD I've gotten about half of my rares and have only seen even ultras XD Hopefully it gets better. But yeah, that seems to be the trend. Maybe I got lucky with the character kits. But again, I'll feel more lucky when/if they change the skill point system. I would rather play any human kit rank 10 at lvl 20 than a rank one lvl 20 ultra rare.

I have not had this issue. Perhaps you were just lucky.

What?
No I keep getting weapons equally as characters.
In any case it's usually s*** I don't want.

Haven't gotten much into the UR yet, but have maxed common and uncommons, using the recommended method. The pattern for both was characters maxed with most guns around level 5 and maybe one or two weapon mods. Guns maxed with weapons mods unlocked but none above level 2. Then, over course, an avalanche of mods to finish out the rarity level.
Intuitively, this makes sense. Characters are the most desired, but give you the least overall increase in useability. Guns are the second most desirable and are able to be used across all characters, but do not give that much more damage potential in comparison. Mods are the least flashy but provide the most direct pure power increase across all weapons and characters. Gear is excluded since it has a separate unlock system.
All of the weapon damage increasing mods (ie, the most desirable) are gold rarity. Based on the evidence so far, it looks like these would be the last of the rares unlocked. Obviously, the drop rate of UR is different than the rest since it is not guaranteed, but I would guess that you'll unlock a majority of the UR weapons and max most of the characters before you finish up all of your rare weapon mods.
Edit: The ratio of gold weapons to gold characters might sqew the numbers in favor more towards the weapons, but silver also had a disproportionate number of weapons to characters and the pattern held, so maybe not. Regardless, point of gold weapons mods to UR unlocks still stands.

I maxed common weapons far before common characters, and have gotten relatively few mod levels in comparison. Checking the #'s I have 5 maxed weapons, 7 maxed characters, 3 characters at VI or above, in comparison to having 1 mod above rank V and one not even unlocked yet.
Edit: I will say that with just basic packs I have unlocked all the uncommon characters, but have only gotten carnifex II and Phalanx weapons, with no uncommon mods.
