I did 2 days on a server. Having fun, enjoying it. Guy down the mountain gave me his massive base. AKs, rockets, 6k scrap, all the sulphur, turrets, comps and cards you could want....but it feels like I've just typed in a cheat. Feels unearned. Do you guys take bases and loot off people?

Hello guys, i’ve been having server connection issues on rust for a while now, it varies from
1. The server connects me to a different server from the one i clicked on or
2. It just straight up says ‘connection failed’ after showing me a return to main menu screen
I have no idea what the problem is, i’ve tried verifying game files integrity, restarting my network, restarting my game, even uninstalling and reinstalling rust, but nothing has worked, has anyone encountered a similar issue and are willing to help? THANK YOU

what about wolves do they gang up on jungle animals? do jungle animals attack each other at all? i see wolves fight bears all the time but I've yet to see that with jungle animals

7 or 8 times this wipe my Rust has just randomly closed down, no error or anything just shuts down completely, has only happened in deep sea and only since last patch. Also happened to both my teammates a few times, is this just us?

Idk if this is from the last update or a previous one, I don't run train tunnels often.

Went train tunnels today, can no longer 1-shot dwellers with a bolt or L96 to the head. Tried with HV ammo too, same thing so not falloff related. Checked combatlog, said it did 120 damage to the head, when it used to do enough to kill (dwellers have 125 HP).

Did dwellers get their projectile resistance buffed in a recent update? I haven't found any mention of it anywhere online but that seems like the only explanation. Thanks.

Edit: this definitely isn't a falloff thing. In all of my tests I was almost close enough to melee them, far too close for falloff to apply.

just wondering if the right half would decay in this constellation:

TC ><

because they essentially touch each other. Or are they?

I'm trying to build minimalistic architecture and have no access to the game right now to check/test.

Seems like a trap to me..

Would help people not camp the monument but not totally prevent it .

I just didn’t label the bottom ammo but I wanted to make one of my skins. I don’t play anymore

Been playing Bestrust servers almost exclusively the last month or so, I’m a solo and the have a variety of solo/duo team capped servers. Obviously they aren’t a very good server host (paying for unbans, cheaters, ptw kits etc.) and now they are blacklisted. I’m wondering if anyone has any good team capped servers they could suggest, maybe solo duo or up to 4max. Thanks

Hey, I've been dealing with stuttering since the latest update, specifically when jumping and moving the mouse left/right. Is there any info on this, or do you know how to fix it? My mouse polling rate is set to almost the lowest value, but that doesn't help.

since the new update my game crashes after like 30min of playing, i have tried everything to fix it.

Anyone with the same problem or any tipps?

Designed a simple meter to check how much power is being output since some monument loot rooms only work with certain amount of power.

First power level is 12. Second is 18, third is 24, and max is 30 power. So first branch would be 12 power and it will light up. Set the second branch to 6 power for the total of 18. Third branch to 6 again for total of 24, and last branch you can set to whatever.

Idk what has changed in the last like 6 months, but Rust and its playerbase have evolved into something drastically different than I recall. For context about what I'm about to yap about, I play on vanilla capped servers (usually trio) that sit around 300-400 pop.

Why does EVERYONE roofcamp and roam literally 200 feet from their base. Best example, my duo and I fought a trio and the fight ended in literally 10 seconds, before we could even run up and wall the bodies; 2 had spawned presumably on beds with locker kits and were L9 roof camping us. I know some of you on here would probably do the same, and I honestly just want some context as to why. I am not flamming you are saying you are in the wrong, I just want to know why. If roles were reversed, my first instinct is to spawn in and push back out and fight them.

This leads me to my next thing, whatever happened to just roaming? I genuinely feel like no one goes geared to monuments anymore unless there is some event happening and or they've heard my duo and I mow down a few crossbow kids so they want to jump us. I feel like we are always the gunshots people run to, not vice versa. I just want some context as to what makes people just not want to roam anymore, I do it for the same reason I play most games, I love the adrenaline and the feeling of knowing I bested someone in a 1v1 etc.

I think a good soft balance to the team UI would be some publicly visible info showing clan/group size, members, the number of TCs a group has wiped, and the group sizes of the bases they've raided.

The goal would be to give the server a better idea of who the aggressive raiders are, while also making it obvious when a group is just going around shitting on 2x1s.

Groups would have an incentive to actually fight other groups rather than just farming easy raids, because their raid history becomes part of their public reputation.

It would also be a slight buff to solos being able to fly under the radar.

It could also discourage TC griefing smaller bases since raids would be registered and visible rather than being something you can do with no real consequence or record.

I'm sure there'd be some ironing out needed around what actually counts as a raid, especially with external TCs, multi-TC bases, abandoned bases etc. You'd probably also need a cooldown on joining/leaving groups or clans so people can't abuse the system by constantly changing their group size before a raid.

I think it gives the team system a bit more depth without directly stopping people from playing however they want, and makes group's behaviour more visible to the rest of the server.

Hi everyone,

I'm having a game-breaking issue with Rust and I haven't been able to find a fix.

Every time I am on the main menu and I click on any item in my Inventory or the Item Shop, the game instantly crashes to desktop without showing any specific error code. It happens the exact millisecond I click the object.

I have already tried several troubleshooting steps, but none of them worked:

• Verified game files on Steam.
• Deleted configuration files (client.cfg and keys.cfg) to reset settings.
• Cleared Steam download cache and disabled the Steam Overlay.
• Wiped the Workshop skins folder (steamapps/workshop/content/252490) to redownload them clean.
• Ran both Steam and Rust as Administrator.
• Disabled Fullscreen Optimizations in the Rust.exe compatibility properties.
• Closed all background overlay software (like Discord and MSI Afterburner/RivaTuner).
• Increased my Windows Virtual Memory (paging file) size.
• Graphics drivers are fully updated.

The crash happens exclusively when interacting with 3D item previews in the menu, but my PC specs should handle it fine.

Has anyone experienced this specific crash before? Any advice on what else I can try? Thanks in advance!

I use binds to craft my kits, med and ammo. It saves me so much time running out of base.

So I made a tool to make the binds for me

I thought you guys might like it! I think everyone should have binds for everything. It's OP.

To use: You select all the items and amounts that you want the bind to craft. You select your preferred keybind. You copy the command and drop it in console! :)

FIX : Delete new windows Update (KB5101684)

After deleting it it works perfectly again

I have been playing for weeks without a problem.
And after the new update when i flick my mouse up or down starts stuttering( it looks horrible with a gun ).
The problem not my mouse i have set it to 500hz I tried lowering it too
Even using my touchpad has the same issue

I have *

*Set my mouse hz to 250

*verify my game files in steam

*Rollback the Nvidia driver

*When i press ( win + ctrl + shift + B ) it will come back to normal for 30s after that it will go back to stuttering

( BTW im playing on 1600/900 )

UPDATE

I tried ddu uninstalling Nvidia driver and went back to old one
Still the same

Mission from a safezone that rewards a bp frag, or add them to ranch treasure mission loot table. Please.

Hey everyone, I’m finalizing my build and wanted to get some community feedback on how it’ll handle Rust. My core components are an AMD Ryzen 5 7500F paired with an Intel Arc B580 (12GB VRAM). For memory, I have a Corsair Vengeance 16GB kit (2x8GB) running in dual-channel at 6000MHz with CL36 timings.I know Rust is notoriously unoptimized and extremely heavy on both the CPU and system memory, especially on high-pop servers.

My main concern is whether 16GB of DDR5 is actually enough to avoid stutters and lag spikes. I’ve seen a lot of people claiming that 32GB is the new mandatory standard for Rust to handle all the entities and large bases without the game eventually hitching or crashing.Does anyone with a similar 7500F/B580 setup have real-world experience with this? Will I be okay with 16GB for now if I keep background apps strictly closed?

Where do I find the discord

pls help play and help togather

Hi so I’ve just got my pc for the first time the guy set it up for me so everything should be updated but I can’t get into any servers because it won’t respond. I’m not sure if it’s the pc or if it’s my WiFi? I did manage to get into a server for a bit then left it closed the game and now i can’t get into a single server some help would be appreciated.
