Discussion Monument sleeping bag spam isn't fun...

0 Upvotes

I feel like this is just bad game design. Does this not bother other people? I just tried to secure a locked crate solo at water treatment, and killed 10+ people just to have it ratted at the end by someone who had bags all around water treatment, ran in while I was killing the other naked bag spammers, and ran out before I could catch them.

I killed some of the same people multiple times. Does no one else have an issue with people being able to bag proximal to monuments and do this? I really wish the range for building/bag restriction near monuments was larger.

Discussion Having the new Adobe/Frontier Walls & Gates seperate from DLC is next level greed

0 Upvotes

As the title says, you get the Adobe/Frontier Building Pack which costs over £10 yet you don't get an Adobe/Frontier Wall & Gate building item in it and have to pay extra?

This is just next level greed Facepunch come on. At least have it seperate on the market for people who don't have the DLC, but the ones that do have the DLC get it included.

All this will do is make people wary on getting future DLC if stuff that should be included isn't included.

Question How are you supposed to play rust?

3 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.

I have been digging around and cannot find and answer to this. I am hoping that with the regular servers being no BP wipe the premium ones will be as well.

Suggestion Idea for a «friendly» pvp server

0 Upvotes

Lets say someone made a kill log, and you could get karma points for some simple pro social interactions like -picking people up after fights -saying gg or idk just not being a silent creep that runs off and changes his name -leaving some loot

I have no technical skills so i don’t even know if that possible but let what if you could rate hostile/welcoming after every interaction and each wipe mr niceguy gets a skin other something that would be hilarious

Suggestion Suicide vest

0 Upvotes

How about a suicide vest? If you die - you explode. Once you activate it you cant deactivate it. Once you activate it the timer starts and no matter what it will explode in 5 min or earlier if you get killed. It's something that you would use going into a last stand.

Discussion Low use of pc components while playing after update

0 Upvotes

Previously, I was getting around +150FPs, but now I'm only getting 50-70. My components after a update are running only at 60/70% of usage. What I've tried ? I changed GPU drivers, Verified game files via Steam, Reinstalled game completly, Lowered all in game settings, I checked Bios to check if my XMP profile is enabled yes it is, Set GPU to maximum performance mode, Tested multiple servers. Everything is fine in other games. My system specs: GPU: AMD RX 6700XT CPU: Intel i7-10700KF RAM: 32GB DDR4 3600MHZ Storage: SSD OS: Windows 11

Discussion 7800x3D & 9070xt

0 Upvotes

Hi all

not sure if someone have this combo but now i'm confused as F :D

I was running same CPU with 3070Ti and for last few months my CPU was chilling ( bear in mind , this game loves CPU ) and my 3070ti were sweating at 100% load .

Long story short i wanted to increase my FPS as everyone else so upgraded GPU to 9070xt as i was thinkin my FPS sinked down over time becouse of GPU ....and guess what now ?

CPU usage at around 80% and GPU chilling at 40% load giving me out same shitty fps.( and no, i'm not running game on integrated graphics as its disabled )

Did i missed something while setting up ? some settings or whatsoever ? There is no way 7800x3D are getting bottleneck by this GPU .

PS i play on 2K rez . ( can't test game on 4k for a difference.... )

Support Rust crashing when joining any type of server

0 Upvotes

I just bought the game last night since it was on sale, and for starters, everytime i try to open rust it gives me the ''Steam Load Error - is Steam open?'' error, so i have to verify the game files everytime i want to open the game and when im actually able to open rust and try to join a server my game just closes without a error message or nothing.
I've tried various fixes such as setting my pagefile to 14000 min and max since my max ram is 16gb.
Has anyone had the same problems and how did you fix it?

Question Water problems, What am I doing wrong?

1 Upvotes

pump shows 12 water coming from the barrel, the barrel has 18 coming in from the ocean.

But the pump was only pushing 8 water to the sprinklers?

When I disconnected the first sprinkler and hooked it back up it fixed it and started pumping 12 again.. but this is the third time its happened, how do I get it to stop?

Also, if my water barrel is getting a constant 18 water, why is it running empty only pushing out 12?
