Yeah that would be awesome, or at least be one of the highest priorities on the list.

I don't know if I agree with the guy who said the shot should return to the original position, you just need to drag down on your mouse to return it manually while firing, don't you?
I don't get why you guys all hate private servers. Is it admin abuse or is it just that you can't get settled in a populated server? PGH is running well right now with hopes of expansion,Private servers are a great way for us owners to express our creativity into the server. Private servers can be a wasteland or a flourishing populated server. Owners who work hard will have people playing on their server, Owners who abuse and doesn't care at all will have a wasteland. The point is, there are hard working people out there who want to provide a better gaming experience for the community. Private servers allows us to provide events, help players, ban hackers on sight, and just have a more interactive community in general.
Ideally you should research other games in this domain (battlefield, call of duty, counterstrike, arma, etc.) and see how they do it, what feels best, and then only if you have a very good reason, stray from the industry standard of video game gunplay.
-too easy to get blueprints
-too many guns in crates
-weapons and clothes don't lose durability means the amount of wepons/clothes is increasing over time on the server
-the fact that you can't destroy/reclaim your own building parts, one missplaced pillar can mess up your whole house
-duping/glitching/cheating
A very good reason as judged by whom, you?
I still go back and play pre - UO:R servers every now and then.
Just to elaborate on the "justice system" it was:
Blue - innocent, has not committed any crimes in the last 15 minutes.
Grey - criminal, has committed a crime, this included killing a player, stealing (i guess using C4 could be considered a crime as its usually used to raid). Criminals are openly attackable and no penalty or kill count is applied for killing one.
Red - Murderer, this person has had 5 kill counts in a short period of time (24 in game hours for each kill count to drop) and is openly attackable, no penalty applied for killing this character.
However there were some exceptions, criminals were still entitled to defend themselves, if you attacked a criminal, you would appear as a criminal only to that player.
Murderers were NOT entitled to self defense, if an innocent player attacked a murderer, and the murderer killed that player in self defense, the murderer would still gain another kill count.
After 10 kills a murderer is then subject to stat loss when they die (this could apply to Rust as a "no camp spawn penalty)
The only reason i don't see this working in Rust is that in UO there was towns with guards that would one shot criminals/murderers if you called for them, so murderers and thieves usually operated outside of town and could not trade with the town people.
Seems like in Rust everyone would just become a murderer unless you wanted to replay as a law enforcement division or something and live by a moral code.
I don't care about anthing like the easy crafting or anything like you guys say. Harassment is fine. Its just I feel that the community has gotten to big. No official servers. We need an official server that can support 1k+ players. We need the old community back. ~Officer Don Nutt
Rust's development sort of boomed in the beginning as it had just been released. Progress has been slow, but the reason that, even with the new update, I'm still not playing is essentially due to:
1. Prolonged lack of character differentiation, leading to heightened rate of KoS'ing.
We could at least have different skin colors, body types, etc, otherwise it's a tad redundant. Perhaps even craftable balaclavas to hide identity? Over-garments to customize our characters over the armor?
2. Military grade weapons are much too easy to attain.
Someone mentioned finding/crafting the individual parts of the gun in order to assemble it rather than looting it from the loot crates. (excluding airdrops, maybe)
3. Door permissions/locks.
Why not have a lock system be craftable? That, or simple permissions to the door, like in-game friends system. (i.e. players can unlock/lock their doors and grant other players keys to their door, so when another player holding the keys to the door is killed, the killer has a definitive way of getting in.)
4. Crude means of transportation.
Although I think full-fledged cars may be a bit OP (especially in consideration to new spawns getting mowed down), a cheap buggy with multiple seats could be cool. (Maybe a permissions system with that as well?) I don't think they're necessary, but a balanced addition would be cool.
5. More weapons.
Crossbows, crude bolt action rifles, homemade machetes, throwable hatchets? Once you have the M4 silenced, you don't necessarily need anything else.
6. Dupers.
The game can't function without admins while duping exists. Being admin on a server, I know how difficult it is for other players when dupers are just steamrolling the entire map.
Don't get me wrong, I still love Rust and I can't wait for it to progress even more. These are basically just suggestions, but they're also the reason I've been inactive on the game. I'm sure most of this will be finished up eventually anyways.
Helk, will you ever fix this freezing glitch? Its like a 2 second freeze/ screen stutter that I get every 10 seconds. Not sure what's causing but it cant be my laptop because its one of the better versions, and runs every other game very smoothly, it even runs this game with grass on at 60 -80 fps which is pretty good, yet I still freeze every 10 seconds for about 2 full seconds which ruins the game. Please help me
What are your specs, it sounds like you're running out of memory if it's shared
I stopped playing do to the constant wipes (Yes, I understand it's in Alpha) and whenever I came in contact with someone with a gun, they blew my brains out. I also stopped do to just the never ending crafting. Like honestly. It felt like a job more than fun. I had to sit in my house and wait till fricken daylight to run out and pray to god I don't get clubbed with a rock from some retard nude caveman just to find some wood piles by huge houses and get sniped. I've never gotten an actual, functioning weapon or house. Ridiculous. And yes, fuck those gay servers. There's like 1,000,000 of them and no one uses them. Fuck those server hosting companies. Lets just host off of like 10 servers all hosted off Garry.
The wipes I can understand, but I've played on many servers where KOS'ing wasn't common.
Seems like you lack a team (which is sadly necessary if you plan on not living on the road). If crafting is taking a while, get a team to separate the workload. That, or join a custom crafting time server.
As for getting killed so much, just play more and get better. It's not like anyone starts off in Rust and becomes a super bandit/survivor in mere days.
I'm not sure how much memory I have, but I literally got this laptop about a week ago, and I've only downloaded about 3 other programs ( 4 - including rust ) and never keep anything else open while playing rust. Is there any fix to it, or heck....will it ever even be fixed or do I have to wait until the official release?
Edit:
I have 6200mb of memory
This would just continue to feed the horrible "make the rich richer and the poor poorer" theme the game has had going for months now. No solo players would stand a chance (not that it's easy for us as the game currently is) when there's a handful of big, bad clans running around clad in full kevlar while they spray their M4s at every easy target they come across when the best those targets can hope to have is full leather and a hand-cannon. If you want to kill the game faster, by all means, push for this "improvement". Like it or not, the majority of gamers fly solo because grouping up is too difficult to do in a game where everyone shoots on sight. If anything's killing this game, it's the awful community.
I did not quit Rust yet, I keep coming back to it because it is such a high quality game. Unfortunately it has lost so much of its appeal after the rented servers came to be. A lot of people who I played this game with has decided to quit because of it, even the guy I started the game with, Hellbean, is rarely playing it anymore.
We used to have so much fun in this game, hiding from people and trying to hunt people. Yet now people can just get away by jumping servers.
I've already said a couple times I understand the choice of the private/rented servers from the financial side of things, but man, it is killing i.
I really wish You, Helk, Pat & Garry could see what kind of game this game could be with just a few official servers based on regions and not all of these rented servers. Unfortunately I do not know of an easily alternative for you guys to keep sustaining financially from this game, even after people has bought it.
But please, reconsider the rented server thing. Please.
I 100% agree with you, and that's why i made a suggestion about singleplayer. Many people seem to disagree with it, but i don't know what kind of harm would it cause to anyone? No new naked spawn players to KoS?
It's the latter of course. Admin abuse is a problem, but it's very minor next to the problem presented by vastly too many servers. But not being about to find a good server simply because there's so many and none are really good population-wise is the main problem; or they start out "ok" but quickly die off. The official server is a nice addition, but since the server browser literally never reports the correct player counts, it sort of defeats the purpose.
What's the deal with the player counts always reporting wrong in the server browser Helk?
Helk, as an alternative, maybe your player could randomly "forget" how to craft an item, between two x values of the items crafted. For instance, I just learned kevlar pants, now if I find a second blueprint, I should keep it, because sometime between making my 2nd and 5th pair of pants, I'll forget how to make them?
I am highly doubtful someone will say yes but...
I am wondering if anyone can steam share with me. The only game I would download and play is rust. I would let you play it when you want and I wouldn't download any other games so you can play all of them whenever you want.
Well anyway that is what I ask and I doubt anyone will say yes but I decided to give it a try.
I BOUGHT THE GAME A DAY AFTER I POSTED THIS :D (TODAY)
The reason why I stopped playing was glitches, server admins, hackers, me sucking, restarts, and just getting bored of the gameplay itself. New rust is looking promising though. Sadly not playable for a prolonged period of time not including the lag varied from player to player. Will be fixed in due time though.
not sure if you seen what i posted. I don't think you will say yes but as you can see i checked a few hours after I posted (i'm that desperate lol)
Really it was the latency issues between friends and where we all live and trying to find a good "Middle server"... Oh and don't forget the hackers!!! THEY ARE LITERALLY THE WORST
People buying hacks and exploiters running rampant coupled with bugs and exploits that were literally never going to be fixed made me stop wasting time with the original rust. Not fun without an even playing ground. It was fun for a while though.
