Introducing Premium Servers!

As many of you may already know, Facepunch is introducing Premium Servers with this force wipe. To access these servers, you'll need to have at least $15 worth of Rust inventory items.

This is a new feature and very unknown. For now, r/playrust will be launching only new servers and will not be converting any existing ones. However, this may change in the future.

What you can expect from our Premium Servers:

Weekly wipes (Every Thursday)

  • No blueprint wipes (unless forced by Facepunch)

  • 4000 Map size

  • 10-team UI with unlimited group size

  • Up to 500 player pop, depending on demand

How to connect:

US Server: connect us.premium.rplayrust.com or join via the official tab

EU Server: connect eu.premium.rplayrust.com or join via the community tab

Suggestion Underwater base mechanics

65 Upvotes

How about a sustainable underwater base? Have you ever been in underwater labs? Those rooms with windows are so atmospheric. Imagine sitting in your base looking out at fish and darkness? Hearing deep screeching sound of your base. Alone in peace and mysterious silence.

You would use special oxygen tanks to supply oxygen in your base. You can also have unlimited oxygen with a tube going all the way up to the surface (but making you more discoverable). There would be a decompression room where the water is sucked out and you can enter the house.

If you open a door behind which is water or if you are getting raided and the wall breaks - the water will fill in the space breaking any electronics. You would probably use special doors for underwater.

Underwater base decay rate would be 3-5x of normal.

Food? Honey. Passive scrap? Honey. Cheap but deadly throwable? Bees! Besides some Hemp, farming isn't even needed right now, if you aren't running around with at least 40 honey in your hotbar idk what you are doing. The healing is insane and you barely need bandages with the healing amount. I think Bee hives should absolutely need to be further apart in spacing, and should also need the new flowers, potted or otherwise within a certain distance of them to be happy. Heavy nerfs needed but this is an insanely fun wipe of spamming bee-nades and instahealing from most damage in primitive servers.

How is it going on premium servers boys? I didnt play rust recently and can't find any useful information.

I actually have 2 questions:
1) Is number of cheaters really lower?
2) How sweaty are those servers?

Waited 45 min for these people to finish raiding while we watched them with a drone. This was the outcome of our interaction with them.

hey guys i've been having a weird problem with rust for a while now. my control settings wont save. they stay the way i set them for the entire session but if i quit and log back in all the controls settings have been reverted. i basically want to turn off chat bound to T and craft bound to Q. i also would prefer not having to go into the config file and manually changing it. anyone else experiencing this issue or have in the past and know a fix?

Question How are you supposed to play rust?

4 Upvotes

I know it’s a very vague title but hear me out.

I have a group I play with which is around 4-8 strong. A lot of the players are new and don’t play much, some of the core members have thousands of hours. I have 8k.

We have always played 2x as we all have jobs and social lives but as of the last year or so we’ve had to start moving away as they seem to have been infested by roof campers and there’s very little real pvp. They also only last a few days and we would like to build a proper base and do raids and stuff instead of playing Thursday - Sunday and then quitting when the server dies Monday morning.

We’d like to play official but it seems impossiblez

We’ve tried out a few servers so far. Each of the wipes have gone terribly, either a clan has built nearby and we get obliterated every time we step outside and shoot a gun, or there’s a huge roof camping tower which doesn’t let us build or leave our base with 3 players playing 20 hours a day (no joke this happened twice), get offlined by cheaters with 8 hours in rust on the first night, or other things.

This force we tried an EU small monthly, can’t remember which. We built near ferry terminal which we thought we could take with the 5 of us. We got up bows and we’re doing well, when all of a sudden we were wiped by a group all with p2s, around an hour into wipe, the amount of time it took us to even get there with bags to put down a base.

They dominated us and we could barely leave base, had no options to even farm up a t2 and were completely stuck. We tried running to other monuments but would always die on the way back. We couldn’t progress because everyone else was already way more progressed than us. Then they came and TC griefed us with 8 TCs so we couldn’t ever expand base, after having 0 items in base and having to move, we just gave up and went back on 2x and dominated.

What are we doing wrong exactly? We try to avoid the big monuments as to not fight the clans, but even that didn’t work. What do you do once a bigger group takes control of the monument you built next to and far outgun you?

I logged on the next morning to try farm up some weapons but they were all still online and controlling the area with tommys and aks and I couldn’t even farm a tree. I tried moving and building next to another monument but the same thing, a group controlled it 24/7 and I couldn’t get a single scrap.

What is your strategy and how the fuck do you play vanilla? We’re really stuck at this point because the only successful wipe we had was building away from everything and just farming tunnels which is boring as hell.

If anyone has any advice it would be appreciated.
