I am not convinced this is a bug to be honest. First off there is no mechanic that guarantees a player will always have recurring quests available. It is possible to not have any until a new trigger is met, and it is also possible to have more than one.
I will bring this up again tomorrow, but so far this has not looked like a coding issue so far.
So from my understand of how the Side Quest and Recurring Quests work is that progressing in the Main Story Quest, unlocking new technologies, or completing Continent Map Provinces (or sectors or scouting new sectors) are all possible events that will trigger a new Side Quest. When you run out of Side Quests then the Recurring Quests appear and take over in place of them, until of course an event happens that will trigger a new Side Quest. After choosing to complete or abort the Side Quest then Recurring Quests once again appear.
From what I am understanding by everyone's posts here is that they had a Recurring Quest active, finished that quest and nothing took the place of it. If they had triggered a new Side Quest that should have appeared in place of it, but this does not appear to be such a case. I haven't had time to log into Beta much in the past few weeks but will do so here after finishing this post to confirm that is what they mean.
