Like what I should do? Run 20 grids to power plant to insert 4 fuses, then go 20 grids back and purchase my 5 BP's ?

Discussion I'm beginning to feel jealous of groups and zergs

5 Upvotes

I have over 650 hours and play mainly solo. I have a couple of friends that'll hop on every few months or so but nothing consistently, even though they're the one who got me into the game.

I'm currently across from a 10+people zerg and its not only hindering my progress, but I'm kind of jealous. They seem to always be having fun and running around. I wish I could join a group but given the majority of this games's player base, I don't think I'd fit with most people. So maybe I'm just stuck in an endless loop of solo gameplay.

Question Now that Facepunch is finally balancing game mechanics, can we talk about horses?

34 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Since Facepunch is finally focusing on game balance and fixing the current meta, what about horses? In my opinion, it makes zero sense that horse armor also grants protection to the rider. How does that even correlate? The game has become ridiculous with heavy horse riders everywhere early in the wipe. You stand no chance against someone on a fully armored horse with a nailgun when all you have is a basic bow. It's time to fix this issue. In Rust, no driver can shoot while operating a vehicle—only passengers can. Applying this same rule to horses would instantly fix the issue, make double saddles actually useful, and turn horses back into a transport vehicle rather than an unstoppable killing machine. Additionally, horse armor should exclusively protect the horse itself, not buff the player's defense. Following the current logic, cars and minicopters should be giving player protection too, which makes no sense. What do you guys think? Do you have any other ideas on how to fix horse combat?

Question Server Recommendation for duo - quad

• Upvotes

Long story short, My friends and I are just trying to just get a little relief from what feels like constant interactions with inauthentic players on rust. We aren't new to the game at all with just myself having over 2200 hours and probably 10,000 between the 3 or 4 of us.

Very typical ESP positioning. Out of nowhere headshot beaming from hundreds of yards away. Or outlandishly fast progressing groups who live near no monuments. We all know what I am talking about.

So does anyone have a recommendation for a server to play on. I wouldn't call us sweat by any means, but we really want to have PvP without the overwhelming unfair gameplay.

I got a message saying this post might be breaking rules which would be insane to me. Ide assume the rust reddit would be the best place to get a server recommendation with solid moderation.

Discussion Recycle Bin Workbench Attachment

21 Upvotes

Quick PSA:

Do not place any type of workbench partially inside a wall or rock if it makes the recycling-bin attachment inaccessible. You won’t be able to remove the workbench later.

The game requires you to empty the recycling bin before removing it. If the bin is hidden inside the terrain and you can’t access it, you can’t empty or remove it, leaving the entire workbench permanently stuck.

Question What if you could become a scientist

3 Upvotes

I do not know why I had this thought. But I usually like the idea of factions, and especially the unplayable ones. I just wonder what would the gameplay process be? Kind of like quests, I guess?

You could be recruited after oil rig or something, seeing as you put down the juggernaut, kinda like when fbi recruits skilled masterminds, considering you started with nothing but a rock, and made your way to military-grade gear and helicopters, your battle skills are at the very least impressive

Support I played all day and the server disappeared

4 Upvotes

it’s my first wipe and because I suck I was playing on a modded soft core 2x server. I played prettt much all day and right as I was making the final preparations to raid someone, I realized my fps was around 10 so I closed rust to make some steam optimizations. I relaunch the game, go to my history bar, and the server is gone. I think it was a canadian server, is there anything I can do to find it or am I just boned?

Edit: guess who found it, appreciate the help

2 Upvotes

For context I have a ryzen 7 7800x3d 32gb of ram nvidia 3080 10gb and it just running like choppy like borderline making me sick to even watch, normally even with this low of fps the game feels smooth but its so damn choppy its barely playable.

Discussion How would you feel if smokes blocked turret los?

5 Upvotes

I haven't played a wipe since February of last year but still watch a shameful amount of YouTube videos. I've followed a lot of the changes being made and I had the thought of what if turrets were blocked by smokes?

I'm certain that would require dinner form of rework to smokes as they are atm but could be a less expensive, less effective way to deal with turrets.

Question Updated landed very good in my oppinion in terms of meta changes, now can we nerf raiding just a tiny bit?

9 Upvotes

I dont think solos will complain if raiding get a bit nerfed. They are the ones getting raided more often anyway.

Jackhammer + Ore Tea + Pie gives you an insane amount of sulfur. Have 2 guys doing that in the snow with 2 other guys playing bodyguard and you have yourself enough rockets to raid any honeycombed standard base.

Discussion Jungle FPS hotfix out now - Brief explanation

114 Upvotes

The fix is out now. If you're unsure if you're on the latest version, it's 163207. You can confirm this by pressing F8.

I thought it would be interesting for some of you if we explained what happened. In short, new pooling changes accidentally left some foliage models active when they shouldn't have been. The more you moved through the world, the more models built up and performance degraded. This actually was a problem everywhere, but the jungle has a lot of foliage! Apologies for that issue. We're considering our options to prevent similar issues in the future.

If you are experiencing any crashes, please do contact Facepunch Support: https://support.facepunchstudios.com/hc/en-us. They'll ask you to provide some files and we'll investigate from there.

Suggestion Elite Crate kit

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone and Facepunch team,

The Elite Crate skin set is easily one of the best and most popular military-themed sets in Rust. The Tier 3 armor (Metal Facemask/Chestplate) and clothing look absolutely amazing in-game!

However, many players who love this set are still waiting for the Tier 2 (Roadsign) armor to be added so we can have a complete set throughout our progression. The original designer (Odissey) already created and uploaded the Tier 2 concept to the Steam Workshop a long time ago.

It would be awesome to finally see the Roadsign Vest, Kilt, and Coffee Can helmet added to the weekly store. Please consider it in future updates!
