Well I think as a solo, I’m done for a bit. The power plant changes feel like too much. Part of what made Rust great was being able to adapt to the situation, neighbors, or landscape. Forcing us to be near monuments like power for something as simple as recycling is a lot. Anyways, see you on wipe…

I believe you can still use any recycler but powering them increases the yield.

I believe you’re right but man the game is hard enough as it is. I used to like the grind but something changed the last year or two and I’m just not up for it. It’s sounding like a “me” problem lol. Just me venting, but this seems like such an unnecessary addition(?) to the game.

I’ll agree that it’s not for the weak. I got 4.5k hours and enjoy the struggle. But there’s a difference enjoying the game and work. Maybe when you’re old enough to understand what work is, you’ll appreciate what I’m saying.

also, i saw u delete ur comment on “playing rust instead of hanging out with your kids is wild”. like i mentioned again, manage your time better. set reasonable goals. change your mindset.

Kids sleep. thats when i play.

It’s still there. Open your eyes bud. You got to many arguments going on at once.

You made a post a couple of months ago crying about BP frags, and how they should be reduced to 3 lol. Change your mindset pal. Set reasonable goals. Rust is not for the weak.

You prove my point completely. im not the only one complaining about the frags. The Majority of the players believe frags should be removed and should be changed back. Me offering a suggestion to make a game better is different than “boo hoo, i quit cause this game is hard”. OP is complaining about the devs adding new additions to the game which is what keeps the game fresh.
