• Scrap costs

Mlost items are extremely hard to find and when found take hours to collect enough scrap. please make scrap more popular as I can't even use half of the building items or weapons on weekly and also fortnightly wipes.
I wished that fortnightly and/or weekly fullwipes were feasible, but I've come to the belief that it's only viable for really large groups who can get BP's really fast. If you're not part of a large group you'll have to settle for a small portion of the game. Then again, FP is trying to design the game for endless wipes, so I think you should try playing on servers with longer wipe schedules. It's a bit bad because people raid with rockets and C4 on the first evening, but at least you won't have to farm like crazy every wipe in order to JUST get the blueprints and you can focus more on workbenches, bases and components.
I have to agree. If you are having trouble get BPs and scrap, I recommend grouping up with some friends or going onto a low population server. It used to be quite easy to your hands on high teir weapons, but that causes many issues. Some weapons and tools were rarely used, and it was even more common to see full geared guys with AKS killing fresh spawns on beaches.
I personally think the biggest problem is in the blueprints variety. You pay 300 scrap to research something at workbench tier 2, and you get prison cell gate... then you pay another 300 scrap, you wish for some good gun, but guess what you get... muzzle boost...
each of the items you've described - can be useful in their own way...its not like you're waisting scrap... and I think everyone knows that if you want a good gun (aside from t1 WB - where gambling actually makes sense) - you need to find said gun and research it... t1 gambling is quick and easy (and there is a meta on how to do it most efficient) t2 is more tricky, but doable t3 is the most expensive (paying 1000 scrap for some 250 "valued" items), but yields the most rewards...
I just don't think it's too bad. I play solo on many servers and I have my BP together relatively quickly. You just have to learn how to farm scrap properly.
Use the recycler and the problem with scrap is gone. By the way sell things like muzzle boost in a shop for scrap. You get a good amount for this items.
I agree and disagree with both of these statements. This is a little off topic, but I do agree there needs to be more variety. What I mean is that there could be more weapons and equipment added to the game. Right now, it seems to be a race for the ak and c4. I don't know how I feel about that. What if there were other craftable weapons in the same tier as an ak, bolty, and c4? Now comes to where I agrew with captainrussia. To me, Rust is all about working with what you got. Let's say you got a rocket schematic, but no AK. What do you do? You have several options. See if anyone is willing to trade, continue to raid bases, get scrap, or farm launch site.
For everything its a balance players that play enough/grind get rewarded
