Foundry brick is just useless now

[Rico2]

Why would you nerf it so much?

[Unbelievable]

Agree. It was fun at release but now it became absolutely useless pod.

[Darkmega]

is that why it immediately goes to 10% durability when you've used it to crash only once...?

[kwrstack]

I was wondering about that pod. I just unlocked it the other day and it sounded so cool I grabbed it immediately... But then it turned out I basically couldn't ram a ship without a HUGE wind up on speed (just boumced off it if I started any closer) and I couldn't aim, so the end result was a mostly busted pod and an entirely useless secondary entrance.

Some youtubers complained that it can trivialize missions by smashing the front rooms of the ship, so devs nerfed it. I say it's a bad decision, because capture, rescue and steal missions can be flat out failed instantly with that tactic. And you also alarm the ship, AND have to spend time fixing your pod. Brick shouldn't have been nerfed, or at least not this way. Making clauses more important would be so much better. Besides, it's not like youtubers know better than any other dedicated player. I say there's plenty more broken OP stuff in Heat Signature, but that's where fun lies. Brick used to be fun too.

I don't suppose this game has a rollback version function so I could try the old brick?

Nope... And 90% of the game data is in the exe so no mods either
Meanwhile the coldfire is still also a piece of trash and the Angel is gonna end up like the Brick if people don't freaking shut up about it!

Yeah, Coldfire didn't even sound useful when I read about it on the liberation screen. I flew it once with a liberator who already had it and it was like "meh?" Like I've been "seen" a grand total of maybe three times in the twelve hours I've played. Unless the ships get a lot better at spotting pods, it's not a useful feature. Seems like Angel is the only really useful pod. Glitch is sort of fun, but you have to be REAL careful not to take any injuries, since it often ends up fairly far away, having never actually locked onto the ship and all.

i just use the glitch ship because docking is annoying after i've progressed a bit

idk about the careful thing
works like any other pod except you can teleport back and the range is exceptionally good + you can just fly closer if you're out of range after picking your pilot up

Really the only two good ships are the Glitch and Offworld ships. Glitch because of the docking, and Offworld because it makes it soo much easier to get back in after being thrown out or somehow put into space AND it negates blood loss and stuff. It's the easy mode ship.
