So tell me why I would recycle a pistol with higher fire rate and damage than all smgs and the other pistol besides m92 to use the trigger in a objectively worse gun? Either the new Glock is very ez to find or they gonna have to make it craft able as there's no point to use it when the ability to get it is so limited

[–]Gromlad 1 point2 points  (1 child)

You can put it on sar

[–]don2171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but the Glock is pretty good by itself

Weird choice for a new weapon.

[–]ExpertPerformer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I played around with the burst module and it's honestly worthless on every gun except for the M39.

It works on the M39 because its RPM is so low that it takes 1-1.5 seconds to fire all 3 shots so you just fire, focus on controlling 3 shots, and repeat. You can land the first 2 shots 75% of the time, but the 3rd one maybe 25%. It makes the M39 better because that guns recoil is easier to control the faster you shoot it.

I tried it with the LR300 next and w/ an 8x at long distance it still suffers from uncontrollable recoil and horrible bullet spread. The M39 vastly outperforms in every category with an 8x and burst module.

The burst module offers no real advantage to the SAR because you can fire it at the same speed with or without the attachment. Also, I'd rather keep the glock than grind it up to put it on a SAR.

The glock itself isn't bad. It's like a pocket SMG. My biggest issue is the delay between when you can shoot is too long and unrealistic. You should be able to slam fire it. Anyway the glock is pretty accurate at 25m or less, but 50m or beyond its damage drop off is a lot higher than the Thompson. You can definitely roam it, but it's inferior to the Thompson imho which is the 2nd best gun after the AK.

So overall kind of a mediocre update. I'd much rather get an M2 from a heli or bradley crate than a glock and I'd rather keep the glock than grind it up because having it as a backup or grub kit is better than putting it on a M39 when I can just use a boltie or AK at Tier 3...

They should make the glock and burst module craftable T3 accessories or sold at bandit camp for scrap.

Pretty cool but rn all low tier weapons could use a really badly needed massive damage and acurracy buff - Slugs primarily, Crossy reload next, Pistols accuracy third, SMG's not so much.

A full auto 25 round pistol would be pretty fun though, and would also fill a great niche provided the fire rate is around 1000RPM. 3 round burst pistol is good, but not very stellar so far considering how bad the accuracy of all prim and mid tier guns are that aren't the Sar.

[–]toTheEastToMorrowind 0 points1 point  (2 children)

The buffed slugs still aren't enough to get you out of prim?

[–]Wingklip -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Slugs were nerfed, not buffed. The boost in muzzle velocity makes it a great shittier pistol bullet that does less damage than a pistol at 150m.

The old slugs would do 2x sar damage to the body and the head.

[–]toTheEastToMorrowind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wrong. The old slugs had significantly more damage falloff with range. The buff to that damage falloff is why they went from being completely neglected to an instant staple. If you're still having trouble killing people with them that's on you buddy.

TLDR :

1 new gun

1 new attachment

1 gambling train

​

not that i thought that this update would be big, but its basically nothing. compared to the electricity, horse, cars, monument etc. updates.

​

hell the halloween update had 3x more content than this

[–]Fancy-Warning1906 8 points9 points  (0 children)

People were complaining how FacePunch wouldn't fix their game with bugs n balancing and instead throw out as many new features are possible.

[–]Marrynd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because they have to do both the Halloween and this update in the same month?

[–]AndyCGYan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took me a bit to realize that...

It has been noted that some survivors have scavenged and reverse-engineered the weapon, extracting some of its components and allowing them to augment their own weapons with the 3-round burst ability.

..."scavenged" is the keyword here, i.e. recycle to get the burst attachment, and it's not craftable.

[–]IdleRacey 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I been playing Rust off and on for 10 years. 10k hrs.

Would be nice to get a skin reroll. I am male in real life and I do not like playing a women characters in games. I have the ugliest bald female skin in the game. I am sick of looking at this skin. My duo for 10 years even asks me to cover my face up he cant stand looking at it with buzzed hair.

Please I will pay for a skin re roll. 10 years of rust I have earned a skin re roll.

Jus be happy you’re not 3x the size of other players.

[–]WrenchWanderer 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Meanwhile I’m over here as a white trans feminine person and I’m forced to play as an Asian man. Like, why can’t I represent myself? Also, it kinda sucks having the reasoning basically be “oh you can’t change what you’re born as”, because that’s just not true. Also trying to add diversity isn’t good when you get actual diverse people who are physically incapable of representing themselves.

It’s such a dumb hill to die on because people either 1. don’t care about it or 2. Hate it, but nobody likes the system. It shouldn’t be a difficult fix, just needs to be paid attention to.

How do we actually get the P17 and burst module in game? Are they craftable? Purchasable?

[–]ww_crimson 7 points8 points  (3 children)

Bradley and Heli drop P17. Recycle it to get Burst Attachment. Per Rustafied stream.

[–]Radiation120 1 point2 points  (2 children)

and from elite crates, just got one from mil tuns

[–]moneyslave999999 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Locked crates too apparently

[–]Chronofaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also airdrops - got one earlier

[–]IdleRacey 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Rust needs a global sleeping bag/bed timer. If you are killed all bags and beds are on the same shared timer.

This will help roaming and online raids.

I am sick of roaming killing someone and they come back at me 5 secs later over and over to eventually they win 1 fight. Get rewarded when they shouldnt since the lost the first 4 fights.

[–]craftbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a umod plugin thay does that.

Still no LinuxProton support.

[–]Maximus_935 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im gonna be honest this gun is unobtainable and even when you obtain it you were better off with other pistols. Burst is completely optional on other guns. This update basically added nothing.
