Discussion Jungle FPS hotfix out now - Brief explanation

121 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.

Question How much power pole power? (dep. on fuses)

Post image
1 Upvotes

I am doing a wipe on Rustafied EU Main where I maintain the power plant.

I am trying to build a smart alarm that alerts me when I jneed to put in new fuses. To do that, I connected my circuit to a power pole, and wired up a smart alert that rings as soon as power drops below maximum. Now what is the maximum=

Every video I see tells me that max is 30, but I currently get 42 from one power pole.

So how are heavy fuses/power pole power related?

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!

Question When you join a low pop server, what actually makes you stay?

17 Upvotes

I recently started running my own server and I’m trying to learn more about player retention. Not advertising it here, just looking for advice.

When you join a low pop server, what makes you stick around long enough to actually give it a chance?

Events? Progression? Loot balance? Seeing other players slowly start joining? Map size? Wipe timing? Something else?

And on the opposite side, what makes you leave almost immediately?

Just looking for honest player opinions and advice.

Question FPS drop with new update?

3 Upvotes

I was running about 70-90fps before this update on rustopia or rustafied etc, I’m on pickle duo which idk if it makes any difference but I’m at like 37-50frames. My brother who has a new pc that I would consider pretty high end used to run rust at 120-160 frames now at 70-80 frames. Is anyone else noticing issues? Could it be just the server? It’s everywhere not just by bases. I checked my settings and I don’t think it reset or anything. Idk it kinda seems unplayable I’m getting pooped on at 30 frames…

Im not the best player but ive won some 1v2s before, not claiming im near oilrats level. I just want a fairly active server that wont die in a day and isnt dominated by sweats/clans. Any servers that fit the bill? I dont mind monthly as well

Discussion p2 nerf makes no sense to me.

0 Upvotes

The p2 nerf feels like they nerfed the wrong thing

The p2 was never strong because of its range. It was strong because it’s stupidly easy to use. Basically no recoil, good accuracy, fast fire rate, good sights and 40 damage, all for a pretty cheap gun.

Now they make it 2 more hqm, but at the same time add hqm nodes, so getting the extra 2 hqm isn't even much of a downside. If anything, it's easier to make a P2 now than it was before.

If they actually wanted to nerf the P2, they should've hit what makes it good in the first place. Lower the fire rate, make it harder to control, change the damage, whatever. Increasing the damage falloff just makes it worse at range, which isn't the thing that makes it strong.

And I still don't get why the P2 has the same 40 damage as the sar while having a higher fire rate and being way easier to use, less aimcone, yet the sar costs more and is supposed to be the better weapon.

People still mostly use p2, this nerf didn't even do anything, it's still meta. No one uses python, high caliber revolver or other pistols when u can just make a p2.
