That makes a lot of sense. I could definitely see this getting annoying with people piling up gems and changing the way they play pretty significantly. I'm sure after trying it out for a little bit I wouldn't want this in my game all the time. I guess maybe it could be fun as a mod just for fooling around from time to time, if it wouldn't be too hard to mod.

It's the same reason the flare gun doesn't do any useful damage. If it doubled as an actual gun, people would spend all their flares shooting stuff instead of putting up lights for the team.

It would be fun if players could stun glyphids by throwing large objects like aquarqs at them. Maybe the stun chance could increase with how full your throwing meter is before you throw, or more simply just the speed the object is moving, and maybe the strong arm perk or backbreaker stout could further increase the chance of stunning bugs. There could be other effects from throwing large objects, too, like maybe they could squash and kill any swarmers they land on or could break off some armor.

This would be a small change to the gameplay overall, but I think it would add a cool mechanic for when you are carrying something heavy and suddenly get swarmed. Instead of just dropping the object and running or shooting as soon as you see bugs coming, you may be better off holding onto the object until bugs are close to you and are bunched together so you can stun or squash as many as possible, so this would create a new high risk / high reward strategy.

It would, of cours...

It would be a bigger change to gameplay than you think. If people starting using the aquarqs as weaponry they'll be all over the caves instead of being deposited, ending the mission. It would make missions longer, and especially on Point Extraction; harder.

I’d give them the game for free and then shame them for not playing it.

If you can accept dwarves with guns in space, you can accept the spring bunny too.

You think you're smart, but we released another egg cap in a previous event, so that's your answer.

You should be able to restore your save if you check the options.

I would love to hear from dev side of things why it would break the game.

The reason is the same as why it was originally pulled. As a perk, it completely overrides most traversal tools in a lot of situations, which becomes an even bigger issue when playing with others. If an engineer double-jumps onto a ledge instead of making a platform, the other players can't really follow. That makes the perk a must-have since you'd been in games where the other players might not use their tools for the team to go somewhere, and that's not a design choice we like.
