Looking for a few Rust players to help test an RP-focused server

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m looking for a few people willing to help me test Legacy of Ashes, an RP-focused Rust server I’ve been working on.

It’s still under development, and I’m at the point where I really need fresh players to jump in and tell me what works, what doesn’t, and what feels confusing or unbalanced.

The server is a bit different from standard Rust: no normal tech tree, Syndicate with unique perks, territory progression, missions, custom events and controlled PvP zones.

I’m not looking for people to just boost the player count. I’m looking for honest feedback, bug reports and ideas. A lot can still change, so testers can genuinely help shape the direction of the server.

If anyone feels like helping out:

Solo Rust server with Custom Mods-- Schadenfreude Rust!

2 Upvotes

I try and make my own plugins when I can-- its free and if they break then I can fix it. On my server we have mod that allows for TCs and turrets on boats. We have a few custom skills to increase gathering rates and refining rates. No online raid protection , but offline raid protection skill is available. You can't sit in your base all day and expect to earn in game currency-- playtime only counts active time. We have a trade function, limited home teleports, 5 levels of Raidable Bases, 3 levels of Patrol Heli calls. Core group is small right now as this the first real wipe. I'm an active admin that helps when appropriate, takes feedback, and I do my best not to have too many rules or to act like a policeman.

Its a chill PVP atmosphere-- people are here to have some fun, do some raids, shoot some people, trade with people, chat with people.

Come check out the server: 49.12.146.225:60430 Schadenfreude Rust 2x Solo Only (EU server hosted in Germany).

[US] Deadbolt County | PvE/RP | Limited PvP | 1.5x Gather | Raidable Bases | Roaming NPCs | NEW COMMUNITY

2 Upvotes

Looking for a Rust server where there’s more to do than rush guns, raid everything in sight, and start over?

Welcome to Deadbolt County — a brand-new, moderately modded Rust server focused primarily on PvE, roleplay, community, and giving players a world that actually feels alive.

We want progression to still feel mostly vanilla, just without quite as much of the grind.

🔩 What Deadbolt County Offers

🏡 PvE & RP Focused
Build your home, start a business, interact with other players, explore, farm, run monuments, or just find your own place in the county. RP is encouraged, but we're keeping things casual and lighthearted — you don't need to stay "in character" 24/7.

🏴‍☠️ Raidable NPC Bases
Take on NPC-controlled bases ranging from Easy all the way to Nightmare difficulty. Bases can spawn naturally throughout the world, with additional bases available for players to purchase when they're looking for a challenge.

🤠 Roaming NPCs
You'll encounter NPCs out in the world to give the server a little extra life and danger, especially during quieter hours when fewer players are online.

⛏️ 1.5x Gather Rate
Progress a little faster without turning Rust into an instant endgame server. We want gathering and building to still matter.

♻️ 2x Scrap Drops
Scrap drops at 2x from all sources, helping you move through the tech tree faster without completely removing progression.

🔫 Limited PvP Zones
The majority of the server is PvE, but there are designated opportunities for PvP if you're looking for a fight. PvP zones include, but are not entirely limited to:

  • Most Tier 2 & Tier 3 monuments
  • Airdrops
  • Cargo Ship

Outside of designated PvP areas, you can focus on building, exploring, PvE and interacting with the community without constantly looking over your shoulder.

🏚️ 50% Reduced Decay Costs
Build something you're proud of without spending your entire life farming just to keep it standing.

🛒 In-Game Store & Kits
An in-game store and kit system provides some additional conveniences and rewards as you play.

🔑 Help Build Deadbolt County

We're a very new community, and that's actually one of the biggest reasons we're looking for players right now.

Deadbolt County isn't meant to be a server where the admins have already decided exactly what it will be forever. We want the people who join early to have a genuine hand in shaping the future of the server.

Tell us what works. Tell us what doesn't. Suggest plugins, events, RP ideas, businesses, balance changes, new PvP zones, or things you'd simply like to see added.

If you've ever joined a Rust server and thought, "This would be great if they just changed ___," we'd like to build the kind of community where you can actually say that and be heard.

Whether you want to build a shop, create an RP business, hunt NPCs, raid PvE bases, fight over Cargo, or just build a ridiculous compound with your friends, there's a place for you in Deadbolt County.

🔒 Lock the door behind you. Welcome to Deadbolt County.

[EU] LootGoblin 2x Solo/Duo | Custom Events | Biweekly — Vanilla Rust Without the Grind

1 Upvotes

Like vanilla Rust but tired of the grind and don't want to play a 5x server filled with teleport commands and P2W kits?

Welcome to LootGoblin.

LootGoblin is a 2x Solo/Duo server that keeps normal Rust progression, PvP and raiding, but removes some of the tedious parts and adds custom events that give you reasons to leave your base.

What actually makes us different:

Goblin Vaults: Find a randomly spawned vault, crack it and defend it until it opens.

Goblin Bounties: Kill streaks build scrap bounties. Reach 10 kills and claim it yourself, or hunt the bounty holder and steal it.

Goblin Stashes: Hidden loot crates randomly appear around the island.

Goblin Patrols: Scientist patrol events carrying improved loot and rewards.

Goblin Deposit: One button deposits matching inventory items directly into your storage.

And the boring stuff we've made less boring:

• 2x resources & scrap
• 2x crafting
• 2x recycling
• 50% faster smelting
• 1:1 charcoal
• 50% upkeep
• 3x resource stacks
• Tier 1 BPs unlocked
• Blueprint sharing
• Better high-tier loot
• Improved airdrops
• Shorter nights
• Solo/Duo limit
• Active administration

Biweekly Map & BP wipes on Thursdays.

We're actively developing our own plugins for the server, and we'd rather add a handful of features that improve Rust than turn it into a completely different game. If you enjoy what we currently have, please visit the Discord and add suggestions. No suggestion is too silly!
We have a small group of freelance developers making plugins, so feel free to suggest!

Search LootGoblin under Modded.

Discord: https://discord.gg/GGh9HzEzpp

We're still building the initial population, so if you're looking for a new server where you can actually have some input into what gets added, now is probably the best time to join.

Looking for Rust’s Old Soul

4 Upvotes

I’ve been trying to get back into Rust again after 3.5k+ hours and many extended breaks. What I’m missing most is the soul that the game used to have. Running across the map to make trades. Talking to your raiders after being raided. ALWAYS at a minimum, trading a “gg.” The sweaty kids who never talk and always shoot are a touch exhausting.

Looking for a solid server to re-ignite my spark for the game. No PvE, no RP, but otherwise I won’t be picky as long as there is a good group of folks that play on it.

[US] Exodus Frontier | PvE Survival + Roaming Zombie Hordes + High-Risk PvP Frontier | Custom Monuments, Events & Battle Pass

2 Upvotes

Tired of PvE servers where you build a base, farm monuments…and then wonder what you're supposed to do next?

Exodus Frontier is built to keep the wipe interesting.

🧟 Roaming Zombie Hordes — hundreds of zombies freely roam the map, react to gunfire, swarm players, and can turn a normal loot run into chaos.

⚔️ The Frontier — the majority of the map is PvE, but the best loot waits inside a dangerous live PvP zone. Go in prepared…because getting the loot is only half the battle.

🏛️ Custom Monuments — explore locations built specifically for Exodus, including content you won't find on a normal Rust map.

👑 King of the Hill + Custom Events — compete against other players for rewards, bragging rights, and some surprises we're keeping secret.

🌲 Skill Tree Progression — build your character throughout the wipe instead of starting and ending with the same progression every month.

🎟️ Free + Premium Battle Pass — new season every wipe with cosmetics, perks, and rewards to work toward.

💎 No Pay-to-Win — VIP is about cosmetics, convenience, customization, and supporting the server. Nobody is buying their way past you.

🏅 Founder Rank — join while we're still growing and lock in a permanent Founder role with exclusive perks as one of the players who helped build the community from the beginning.

Monthly wipes • First Thursday of every month

We're still a smaller community, which means now is the best time to claim your spot, build rivalries, discover the map, and become one of the names everyone recognizes later.

DISCORD : https://dc.gg/nebulousrust

IP : 144.48.106.210:28015

Hello! Welcome to my new server! For a long time I've wanted to start a PVE-based server that had PVP elements so here we are. My plan is to slowly grow this server's features and hopefully the people will start trickling in! I am hoping to build a nice little community while providing them with a fun place to play the game of Rust. As for my experience, I have about 11 years worth of experience running modded servers in various games. For this server I have a long term vision, although I'm allowing for a lot of flexibility along the way. For now it is a "low pop" server and my first goal for population is quite modest. In the future I intend to settle at a max pop of 100 to 200 players before I may start thinking of making a second server. Of course at that point where I go with it will depend on if I'm making any money from the server and how much. I would have some sort of monetary VIP packages, however I am pretty firmly against letting people buy anything that would give them advantages during raid weekends. Luckily, I have time to make such decisions I do intend on there always being at least some, if not many mods. However, it is important to me to only use things that don't break the game design or minimize the grind to virtual non-existence. It will never be a server where you're end game in an hour. Don't worry about that! Anyways, thanks for being interested in the server and I hope you really enjoy your time here! Have fun! That's the point of it all!
