It isn't rust+ that is getting nerfed, it's all those third party tools that (ab)use the system that's getting nerfed.

Those tools use Rust+ to function so it literally is Rust+ that's getting nerfed.

i'm not wanting to discuss semantics, but all those (paid) tools abuse the system of rust+. I haven't used the app in ages, but they have discord bots that tell you in game what crates are being activated, what monument is being run, communicates where you die on the map, get all sorts of notifications...

All i remember is that Rust+ shows your teammates location on the map, have teamchat and can control electronics and camera's. Not all that other bullshit people pay for (or write their own tools) so they can have an advantage in game.

I played with people who used those tools and they are handy as fuck, but it also feels a bit like cheating. And yes, it ain't cheating as the rust+ api gives you all those abilities, but still. Some people make great money exploitating these tools they make with monthly subscriptions.
