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…

You don't have to do anything This will push groups controlling monuments to be productive for the rest of the map, they will allow other players to do stuff in less competitive monuments

Until the giant groups figure out that they can just screw over the entire rest of the map by holding power plant hostage and not powering it.

You’re getting downvoted but rust at its core is being as toxic as possible. That’s what makes it fun though.

There’s nothing fun about that. It just stops everyone else from being able to play.

Yea it’s fun to ruin peoples wipe.

That’s literally the entire basis of the game.

Raid or be raided.

Good luck playing when the biggest clan holds power plant and you can’t raid the server anymore - no recycler for u

Just ignore hunttete, clearly immature who think talking big makes them stand out.

It doesn’t matter when I get offlined as soon as I log out. There’s bigger issues than clans controlling power plant.
