Changelog #221

The Brick Kar has been performing poorly in trading over the past few days. I’ve personally owned four Brick Kars, and from my experience, they were extremely difficult to trade. The current demand note of “Occasionally Avoided” feels outdated. The term “occasionally” implies that avoidance happens irregularly or only from "time to time", but that clearly isn’t the case right now. It took me hours to trade my Brick Kars, and I still have two of them. Many traders are actively avoiding them on Discord servers and in Trading Island and In my opinion it is the WORST 3m vehicle. Based on the current trading environment, I believe this note should be updated to better reflect how the Brick Kar is performing in trades currently.

post all the limited drone hype which we all knew was only going to last a short length of time, drone has practically ended up the same as every other 1.25m vehicle such as meg, frost crawler/striker. its extremely common to see on island and i assume will be treated somewhat similar to how pixel is treated. because of how insanely common it is to see drone on trade island, and the fact that it isnt great for upgrading at all, drone is more frequently avoided than it is occasionally avoided. considering all the other 1.25m vehicles also have the "frequently avoided" note, this should too since most 1.25m vehicles perform the same as each other in the market. im not adding the lowballed part because i think its #### to do so. its already at such a low value, realistically if anyone does offer for this theyre gna give a similar offer to what its worth, which will also include #### demand, but the value will be around the same.

there's pretty much no reason right now for drone to have demand higher than striker, frost crawler or any of the other 1.25m, meg etc. yes there was hype as soon as drone went limited but it's been a while since it's gone limited and now there's no real market for people lf drones, and drone is now treated pretty much the same as all the other 1.25m vehicles. this could've been better if drone was rarer than it is rn but whilst there are 25000 of these circulating island each month there's no potential for drone to improve any time soon.

Is shell really rare to find now? After every hoarder and stacker has dumped it making it drop so fast these days? You can really easily find shell classic now as the owners of this vehicle are desperately trying to get rid of it and trade away. In every trade server I see there is someone trading shell classic, mostly multiple at once too. Rare to find for shell classic is outdated atm and this part should get removed

It is no surprise that this thing is the WORST 3m currently. It is doing terrible in trading, why is this still 3m? It doesn’t pull any other 3m, you are almost always asked to swap it out for any other 3m vehicle . also always asked to add when trying to trade this thing for any other 3m.

Common trades: Brick Kar 1 for wedge Brick Kar 1 for storm and volt

Hear me out, using the word “impossible” twice in a single sentence feels unnecessary and a bit exaggerated. While finding a clean Void is very difficult, calling it “nearly impossible” isn’t entirely accurate. There are enough Void rims in circulation that it can be found, even if it takes significant time and effort. Describing it as “extremely hard to find” is more appropriate, since locating someone who owns this item genuinely requires patience rather than implying it can barely be found at all. For this reason, I think this wording change is needed, as the note doesn’t need to rely on repeating “impossible” to convey its difficulty.

It's up to no one's surprise that spiked gets avoided and lowballed sometimes, with it's recent drop to 8m highlighting that fact it has also been struggling to pull its former common trade which was the parisian, it usually gets offers close to snowstorm or a fair downgrade such as carb + wedge , it is usually asked to be replaced by something else if used in a bigger trade. with that said, i suggest the note addition.

Hello? Spiked is not a medium demanded item in the slightest, this thing is not on par with other medium demanded items at all and is definitely not better than stuff like arachnid and raptor in terms of demand. this thing's demand is no where near close to medium, being avoided sometimes whenever its used in a trade, and it's recent drop to 8m highlights that fact. with that said, i suggest the demand change.

Most of the hype for Drip was over the past month, but it's now down. At the moment, people would rather have Icebreaker or even Yellow L5 23 than Drip, as they get more overpay. I've seen a lot of trades where people either received Drip for a base or traded it for a base themselves (obviously not in low demand, but still). Yes, it pulls overpays, but not that frequent anymore, and that's why I think it's a better choice to change its note.
