• Less automatic weapons, more homemade stuff!

Hello everyone ! I am totally in love with rust. I love the tension of building up, or always beeing on your toes when gathering resources. Especially the first few hours on a freshly wiped server. Most of all i love the fights with melee weapons, the bow shooting, first dudes gettin crossbow, maybe a revoler or the lovely waterpipe shotgun. And having fights that really can go either way. But as soon as the AK and other weapons start to get more normal on the Server, the fun kinda dwindels. It gets to easy to kill, or to be killed. The tension kinda leaves, if you have an AK u can shoot all those suckers without a good rifle easily or sit in your snipertower with your 4x4 scope and do some target practice on the suckers trying to get some stone for their noob base. And of course its the same way the other way around, starting on a server that has been up for a while all you can do when you see another player is hope he has no rifle in his hand, then you both have a chance, but if he does u cant do shit. I think there should be less call of duty type weapons and more... homemade fun stuff :) Like the upcoming flame thrower, maybe a chainsaw, a Rambo type bow or other improvised stuff. All in all i think this game should go more individual ways, and not "get a ak with laserpointer (WTF?!?!) or a bolt with sniper CS type of weapons". How do you guys think about that ? Am i totally wrong? Should i go hug a dinosaur in Ark ? tell me :)
i think the current selection of modern weapons is pretty good, but would never say no to more homemade style gear.
I totally agree. For me, rust is the most fun before everyone gets guns. I have nothing against guns, but the problem is that it only takes about 1-2 days after a wipe before everyone has a full gear. There should be a mechanics to slow down the progression, without it feeling too grindy to get it either.

I share your exact opinion, the best firefights I ever had were with waterpipes and bows. "Higher tier primitive weapons" would be really cool. (If that makes any sense)
I like the idea of having more post apocalyptic style jury rigged weapons. Maybe automatic weapons should just be a bit more difficult to achieve. I've watched a lot of raids where players get decked out SWAT style, but imagine if higher tier weapons were so rare that only a few select officers in a party would have them?
