I barely play lately anymore and I was hesitant to post this, but since I joined MCNR in february 2021, the state of rustler/rustler balance went from very challenging to downright stupid as of late nerf from 1000 to 800hp.
I mean what are you even thinking
@Mike You're balancing it around like 2 people, it took us years of dedication and practice to get a hang of it and you want it to be same power level as a car or something, what the fuck.
You now slightly damage/bump it into something and the engine loses power and needs repairs.
Which brings me to next issue that I tried to bring up on github long time ago and was ignored...
BUYING VEHICLE REPAIR KITS FOR RUSTLER IS A FRUSTRATING FUCKING PAIN IN THE ASS THAT HAS NO POINT IN BALANCE
If you have 0 repair kits in inventory, you need to:
1. exit rustler
2. buy repair kit
3. enter rustler
4. repair rustler
5. exit rustler
6. buy another repair kit
7. enter rustler again
Its frustrating and tiresome as all hell and there is no point to it. WHY did you have to change it so we can't buy repair kits from inside of rustler in gas stations ? It absolutely makes no sense and contributes NOTHING to the balance, only makes it stupidly tiresome and frustrating to repair rustler, especially now, with 800hp.
Honestly, if there was a humane way to buy repair kits from rustler, I wouldn't complain, although it was absolutely pointless and unnecessary change (that you can't buy in gas stations from inside rustler anymore).
I'm just baffled where the idea to nerf rustler to 800hp came from tbh. Seasparrow at 600 and rustler at 800 ? Seriously ? Any paraplegic can fly seasparrow and destroy cars with it, while only like 2 people can properly wield rustler.
Anyway, just make it less frustrating to buy repair kits from rustler and we good. And maybe try to keep in mind the effort and time it takes to learn to fly it.
//sorry for a bit of a harsh post, it's only years of frustration pouring out
