Rescued all 3 legendary gunsmiths,still can't customize weapons
I'm on mission 34,did all the gunsmith extraction missions (107-109,none failed) and still haven't unlocked gun customization. and since you can't seem to repeat completed side ops I can't just try again. did the game actually bug out for me to a point where I'm missing out on a fairly important feature?

Many people are having issues with missing important items as well, apparently it's an issue with their servers which doesn't make any sense because people who have been playing offline all the time are still having this issue. Anyway, unless they change how side ops rewards and key items work, you might have to start the game over.
i played many time offline, most of early game, just until midgame im playing online (untill POA unlock...) there is no another chance than erase data and restart again ? x)

Is he apart of your R&D team? If he already is, move him to another sector, then move him back to R&D. No clue if it will work, but its something to try.

I have a fair amount of guns, the only customization I really have done is adding a silencer to my sniper rifle.

I already tried firing all my r&d staff,but without knowing the specifics of the legendary gunsmith (name and what stats he has+talent) it would take me ages to try and move every single person from my 400something staff across the platforms around to see if that might work. and since the gunsmith is just a randomly generated normal recruit without specific talent that points him out to be the legendary gunsmith, I don't have anything to go on. plus there's a high chance he died during the parasite infection and since I'm close to the end of the game I don't really feel like spending hours moving my staff around to possibly unlock it (which I doubt will work anyways,it should have unlocked right as I got him)
thanks for the suggestion tho

an easy possible fix for this would be to make the gunsmiths marked as essential and give them a unique trait/talent that marks them as legendary gunsmith so this doesn't happen to more people but since it seems to be a fairly rare bug and a lot of people don't even know about gun customization I doubt it's gonna happen.

I guess, but it's still a bummer to miss out on a gameplay feature that seems to be fairly well done (ignoring the never unlocking it bug part) and give you a lot of choices and options. several slots I unlocked on advanced weapons are useless for me as I can't attach any optional underbarrels,attachments,silencers etc so I have to rely on the few basic pre-silenced weapons. and keep in mid that not everyone has the same playstyle, some people are fine with basic silenced weapons and restart a mission once they get detected while others want to go all out with customization and keep many options available to improvise if ♥♥♥♥ hits the fan.
