Game needs serious balancing reworks.

[Manty]

Solo is unsurvivable. The community is no different from rust, 3-4 people will sit outside of your basic wooden base for hours spam killing you when there is no reward to be gained. but I put that on the developers. The weapons need to be reworked or guns need to be less grindy to get. there is really no point in playing for hours gathering loot just to build a basic base that can be raided with one single Molotov. There are plenty of children who will chime in on issues to say "Skill issue" but even if you are really good with the bow you still aren't going to 1v3 players with guns. I've also already encountered two cheaters that stood still in front of me letting me shoot them whilst mocking me. No hit reg on them at all, but of course they can still kill me. I'll probably come back to the game after its been reworked/anti-cheat but for now I can't afford to spend the amount of time it takes to get basic things just to survive the onslaught of people looking to grief starting players.

There are official solo/duo servers.

I noticed that! which is great. They need 4 player servers. Also chat/mic bans need to be a must. had 3 dudes sit outside my base yesterday making threats to "rape" my girlfriend who had only spoken once the entire 2 hour play session as she was scared of someone saying something exactly like that to her. They either perm ban this kind of behavior, take away voice chat, or I'm done with the game. I'm not playing anything where players get to get away with acting like that to another human being.

Same experience here. Asked "I just got the game today and i got nothing on me, whats the point?" and the answer was "n****r".
Playing this with my girlfriend as well, but i doubt she wants to keep playing if people are just going to be ganking/griefing you for no reward and yelling profanities at you while theyre at it.
Really seems like they are going to lose players if it doesnt stop, or at "best" build up a fanbase of nolifers who thinks that saying obscene and racist ♥♥♥♥ to people is fun and the highlight of their day.
Just dont think it has place in a video game that children are likely to play.

I agree that playing solo can be very demotivating. But I love the flying mechanics, so i kept playing. I started on a new server yesterday and they tried to raid my base twice, I got lucky they didn't have enough boom, so I could repair. That motivated me to expand my base. Also it can be very fun if you run into a group and manage to get away.

Guns are really hard to get as a solo. Everyone is flying around with aks while I am shooting with crossbow. The card rooms are impossible, as soon as the npcs shoot at you other ducks will come.

For the voice chat, I would recommend to just turn it off. The guys who tried to raid me yesterday kept shouting bs at me. I think you will always have these people with games like this. In rust we settled for a community server with good admins, but even there we had trouble with some.

Some tipps to make the game more fun:
*Look up the flying mechanics, the speedboost was a gamechanger for me.
*Join on wipe day and enjoy a few hours of bow pvp
*Build nests around your base (you can hide them in trees). Bow and arrow are easy to get, so you can take on the doorcampers.

I love the game and I hope that normal people don't get scared away from it.

After our third day of playing this game, I think my friends who I recommended this game to completely lost interest in this game because of the offline raiding. Having to rebuild ur base daily just isn't fun. We can't be online 24/7 and u can barely progress without being robbed. I still like the game and I enjoy playing this but i'm having a hard time logging in atm.

And the community is kinda disappointing. It's like they want people to quit this game.
Really hoping this game would blow up and gain more players but man, I don't know...

Or like Mic ME said, maybe we're just a bunch of whiny little girls.

I am playing solo on a solo/duo server and never get raided.
It all comes down to making the right decicions.
Consider playing on a PVE server first.
There are group limited servers like trio servers.
Base location & design. There are many things you can improve.

Just remove the ability for guns to destroy t2 and t3 walls. needs to be explosives only. And I think more people would play this game.. just my .02 after 20 hours as a new player this weekend.

Discord is https://discord.gg/GPbrQ6m7Cm

I stopped playing on the offical servers couple months ago, and after a break went on a 10x pvp, private hosted instead. Yes we got offlined, or.. they stole our base complelty is more the story.. but i know, if we were a better team we would got the base back. So it is all about teamwork, picking the right servers for you. I do agree however in regards too the toxicity by some players, that may have come from the rustcommunity. Theres is not all bad players there but it is the few ruining so much for the others

If i may, dont go on the offical servers. It might be where theres more players, but also worse with support in regarding bad apples such as toxicity. 🙂

You're playing the game wrong if those are your issues.
