What if players could control drones in Rust? It would be cool if the player had FPV so they could scout the area and/or drop and up packages from other players. You could also allow players to add weapons but this might be OP. It should also be easy to shoot these things down so other players can repair/use them, and steal any stuff the drones might be transporting.
EDIT: You could also limit supply by only having drones drop.
hmmm..
That seems way too complex for a world like Rust imo. Either way, I think it is a later feature...
Some kind of UAV hacked together from an old surveillance camera, a car battery, scrap 2.4 GHz modules, a monitor and a big glider made of wood? If you throw it from a mountain it could be in the air for quite some time. I'd love it.
How the hell are you supposed to build complex tech in the Rust world? No.
Maybe they should put in perks as well and then it would be like call of duty. I mean my mom gets violated all the time already so it won't be a major problem.

You are kidding right? Go ahead, try to build that irl lol. Car battery is hella heavy, as is wood for the most part...I have to assume this was a joke...it just has to be...
I don't know about drones because that implies complex computer technology, but I can see homemade helicopters.
I'll put this right here:

Because every computer game is 100% real, right? Especially Rust! I mean I have red bears and wolves all around my house, I can carry shitloads of rock and stone and wood and still run forever, that's absolutely real life. How dare I suggest putting a car battery on wood and have it fly!

No to drones, theres no reason to have them in rust and while the idea is creative, it is not believable to get a car battery airborne with wooden wings and there isn't really a point in having them in game.
I guess most of the people know the Film Aliens
I heard in rust will be Electricity How about a Sonar that works about 100m around youre base
Its not OP but it tells you there is something outside.
Yeah! No? pls Reply

i can probably help there. one of the greatest dangers in rust is not knowing where other players are. you need to keep your eyes open. its inadvisable to run around in the dark with a torch out unless you want to be attacked. and lowtech is the base tech level of everyone, even though we can find kevlar armour and machine guns (which are being rebalanced). we don't have waypoints, or an inbuilt hud showing us where we are, or where our friends are.
even if they introduce electricity, i don't think it will fit for us to be adept enough to create a short range radar/sonar system from metal frags and bits of wood. we're talking circuit boards and stable electricity feed, engineering knowledge and a decent understanding of how a radar/sonar device works. not to mention that it would encourage camping at home waiting for people to try and raid, and sniping them from the rooftops.
i would not like to see this introduced in rust, even if it might be a worthwhile idea for another game.

Its youre Oppinion i would like it
The Idea of being a Caveman forever sounds stupid i guess tech would be nice but it has to take more time to get it

tech yes(and i agree later in game), but we need to be reasonable about what a person with no training can make. i cannot make a nuclear reactor, regardless of finding plutonium. but i could make a water wheel that powers a little crankshaft to generate electricity if i found the right parts. i cannot make an automated sentry, but i could easily make a re-settable trap that kills anyone who opens my front door.
this game should never have modern tech per se, because it is redeveloping a society from naked people with rocks, to however far they can go.
and yeah that is just my opinion, but thats what you asked for;)

^THIS^
... is my biggest Rust pet peeve when grouping with people who are relatively new (sub-100 hours). Hundreds of hours of splinter cell on the original Xbox taught me to avoid light like the plague. I knew holding a torch or a flashlight at night was a bad idea before I even had the game.
Yet soooooo many people still do it. Not just new spawns either. I had a (former) buddy who was running around alone at night with Kevlar and an M4 with a flashlight on. An M4 that had one slot on it and he put on a fucking flashlight...
*sigh*
Every Rust server needs a therapist. Someone who hangs out up in the mountains who you can visit and vent all your problems too. Then he tells you everything is going to be okay and gives you a chocolate bar and a chicken breast. That sounds really great right about now.

Blue prints son :)
What if we could have tanks? You could build them out of wood planks, metal fragments, cloth and raw chicken and they could roll around for 2 hours on some low-grade fuel. Then we could have Tank Wars!
Ooh ooh, what if we could build fighter jets from tuna cans, animal fat and sheets of paper? Air combat and bombing runs on big houses? And when someone locked on to you with a missile you could throw a flare! zomg so awesome! But planes are kind of high tech, so I think to make it fair you would need to build *two* workbenches. Right?
[QUOTE=Murdo;45505337]But planes are kind of high tech, so I think to make it fair you would need to build *two* workbenches. Right?[/QUOTE]
And at least two players, no plane has ever been built by one single man!

A little Girl in Metal Gear Rising built a plane alone :D
Mythbusted.

here ya go:) now make it with a rock and some salvaged metal fragments.

I don't see what the big deal is. We have metal, wood, and I can rub two pieces of bear skin together to create static electricity. Why exactly can't I build a Tesla Cannon if I had the blueprints?
Maybe a kite with a mirror, that would be about as high tech as i'd like to see ;)

If Gary is putting in gasoline engine electrical generators, then we can have rudimentary flying machines.
Also, see the the movie "Flight of the Phoenix" :)

We already have a large cargo plane, not sure why it would be impossible.
I just hope some type of vehicles are implemented, especially if the map size is increasing.
As for drones, I personally have to disagree. Unless you could find rare parts, and then put them together for a short-lived power weapon for base sieges, I wouldn't really want to see them.
I would settle for a bicycle at this point lol
Player flown gliders would be far more realistic, they could take aim from the sky as well.
