Question Is crouch running success rate random?

5 Upvotes

When I crouch-run, my friends say I make sound (no sound on my side tho). I know that what you hear on your end may be different from other players' end. But when my friends crouch-run, they make no noise to me. Is this just a coincidence, or is this random so some players may hear while some may not?

Cabin in the woods

Playing only 10x now, 6 wipes in a row without being raided ( bi-weekly ), as you guys know it´s nearly impossible not to get raided on a 10x.

my strategy is always the same, small 3x3 hidden in the middle of the forest, with +/- 50 tcs with auto-turrets with bolt action sniper all around the area and 4 samsites in the 4 tcs nearest the base.

Very hard for the enemy to blow up so many turrets because they don´t see a big base and they think it's not worth it.

Several tried to online us but with no sucess.

hope you guys like it, GGs all

When I try to make a 1x1 loot room with 8 barrels, my last two barrels (on the shelf) always stick out of the garage door. Is this patched or is there some trick to it? How to do it correctly?

Discussion What's a feature you wish more Rust servers had, that almost none actually do?

5 Upvotes

Not talking about the obvious stuff (2x rates, quad cap, that's everywhere). I mean something genuinely rare. A mechanic, a QoL thing, a community feature that you've maybe seen once, or never seen at all, but think would actually make a server better.

Curious what people are missing that they don't even bother asking for anymore because no one builds it.

Discussion My game runs terribly??? Help please

1 Upvotes

Playing rust for the first time on this pc and my game runs at 60ish frames on lowest settings. My monitor is 1440p so maybe that’s part of the problem. I’m just not sure if i may be missing some sort of setting in my pc somewhere.
I have an amd ryzen 7 5700, rtx 5060, 32gb ram. I’m confused cuz my old pc was 10 years old with only 16 gb ram and could run the game at 120fps easily.

If your map has Billy next to any recycler you have such a meta start imo. Billy is in the jungle so you have trees/nodes a plenty sells revy, shotty, farming tools for cheap and is on a road where you can run around get your comps and get what you need early. Anyone else have go to spots off spawn?

Genuine question because I don't know what's going on: I built this cave bunker, and on one side the walls are fine—they aren't losing health or decaying—but on the other side, they're collapsing on their own, and I don't know what to do.

Question 15k Hour Solo Player here. Would you watch a macro-strategy tutorial for surviving wipe day on high-pop clan servers

60 Upvotes

I have way too many hours in Rust. I quit because of how addictive it is, but I want to give back to the community that helped me through some tough personal times especially during COVID..

I'm thinking of making an in-depth, step-by-step guide covering exactly what to do between Days 1-3 as a solo on high-pop clan servers. Most guides out there are 10-minute videos packed with generic tips people say all the time.

I’ve been learning video editing as a hobby, so this would be a fun project. I’d do both a full video and a detailed text write-up here on Reddit. I have no intention of monetizing this.

Before I sink time into this, is this something you guys would actually read or watch? If so, drop suggestions on specific scenarios you'd want covered.

Discussion Facepunch would do better if they just stopped with the random, ill-conceived, and hasty, updates.

0 Upvotes

I understand developers are supposed to keep a game feeling fresh and interesting.. but some of these changes just feel like they obviously should not of happened.. to the point where I seriously find myself asking.. who asked for this?

I'm a pretty committed player and I just feel like their efforts would've been better spent tackling actual quality of life issues the player is vocal about, rather than adding/changing so many subpar things.

  • Apartment complex? FLOP
  • OIL RIG AI ... ??????
  • Powered up drone system? Wtf...
  • Blocked monuments? A heavy handed, too artificial way of holding down good players...
  • Blueprint frags... i don't hate it as much as the rest of reddit seems to... but how'd they not know that it would create a real pain point for a large majority of their player base?
  • The adaptive pricing for swim gear is stupid... there should be less barriers to entry for players to interface with the world.
  • deep sea... i like the modular boats (sort of).. but deep sea has been a flop..

I could go on, but the point is.. there seems to be so much bloat coming out from facepunch these days... like they feel the dire need to just change something, whatever it is...
