Rust gunplay is extremely unbalanced right now.
The devs thought it would be better for the game, or their pockets, to make recoil a basic pull down pattern with an RNG based aim cone. Following this update, they had 2 sales for rust, twitch rivals, and a rushed release of hardcore servers which has barely held the game to average pop since the combat update. Since the creation of this post, rust has lost 5000+ players in the last 30 days due to loyal players leaving and new players joining then quitting regardless of how easy they make the game. Rust is a survival game that is meant to be hard and competitive, where a skill gap makes sense. Logically, a 500 hour player should be at more of a disadvantage than a 5,000 hour player. I also believe long term the game will not have incentive to keep playing any more. Recoil gave incentive to play the game long term in order to master specific guns. Tommy was capable of killing AK if you were better at recoil, and vice versa. Although tommy was slightly inaccurate long range, you had the chance to compete. This made fights feel more rewarding.
The goal of this petition is to get the devs attention as a community opinion.

The momentum behind this petition highlights a clear consensus regarding the state of gunplay. It is increasingly evident that players value a high skill ceiling and rewarding combat mechanics. I appreciate the commitment shown by those who continue to advocate for these necessary changes.

the skill gap is completely gone now. i used to spend hours on ukn getting my spray down but now all of that time is wasted. bring back the old ak
BRING BACK OLD RECOIL
4k hours shooting a target dummy and another 4.5k hours of battlefield servers and vanilla/3x all with the old recoil. It was a long journey but it was rewarding, now kills are not rewarding at all. the least Facepunch could do is leave us with some servers or admins with the option to use the old recoil. A slap in the face of your loyal players facepunch.
i literally uninstalled last week. game feels like a shell of what it used to be. miss the old sound design too it was way better
I have 8k hours and the game is garbage now. Doesn't hold a flame to the pvp we had before the recoil update. Please return what we all love before it's too late...
Hate new recoil
yes please
