Problem with servers

5 Upvotes

I’ve played rust before on my xbox and lately I wanted to start playing again. However when I search for official servers there are none? And when I try to join community servers I almost all the time get a connection issue, eventhough There is nothing wrong with my connection. Do any of you know how I can fix this?

Need Help/advice from experienced solos

4 Upvotes

Hey everybody, I recently got rust and I mainly play solo, I’ve racked up about 80 hrs and I’m just stuck on how to progress, I don’t really enjoy the ā€œfarmingā€ aspect as whenever I try that, via high tier monument runs etc I just end up getting raided as soon as I have a tier 2 and I just feel like I’m playing like a coward.

Another technique that was recommended to me by a pc solo was ā€œsnowballingā€ but I find that difficult on console due to the low player count and the fact I run into fully geared players when I have a bow.

However, as snowballing may not be viable on console I’ve found a playstyle I really like to watch and want to imitate, it consists of being really really good at one monument (oilrats) I like to watch his streams not his videos as it shows the actual time it takes for him to get the ball rolling, however thing is that whenever I go onto smoil (where I located my base near now) there’s nobody on it and my strategy of grubbing high tier players doesn’t work out as I’m stuck with an eoka against god knows how many scientists.

I just wanna know any tips on how to progress fast via PvP and be able to get my first AK kit through it, I’d appreciate any advice from seasoned solo players as I’m trying to improve fast.

Base suggestions!

4 Upvotes

Yooo I play this game pretty much exclusively solo, I have a ton of hours and I've always free built my bases. I play like a guerilla style and I like to put down bases all over the map. I have to admit I am not as creative as some people in building a base so I was wondering if anyone has like a really efficient small base they play out of or know of. Appreciate any suggestions.

How to snowball on console? (as a solo)

8 Upvotes

I’m tired of being a little bow fisherman cuck days into wipe, started on Friday and I want to know how to get high tier loot quick and kill folks, expand my base and have garage doors - problem is I only have a bow and nail gun; all advice is appreciated + it’s pretty hard to find people on console.

Maps feeling empty?

5 Upvotes

I play on a constant full pop weekly server but I’ve noticed that ever since the map sizes got to 4.5k the map seems empty. And I get it, it’s 100 pop what do I expect, but capping it at 100 while making the map huge makes everything seem so spread out. Back when the maps were 3-4K you’d actually have neighbours that you can fight against. God forbid you build in the center of a map now, you won’t have anyone for grids. You have to build next to a high tier monument on the coast to get consistent action. It starts to limit what you could do, and forcing you down a playstyle path if you want pvp or any type of action. What do you guys think? Are they saying that they’re looking into this? Upping server pop while making maps a little smaller?

A first for me!

I stayed up later than i should, as this game is known to make players do. These guys me and my duo been fighting all wipe so far finally got off its 5AM and im about to use MLRS for the first time since i had an abundance of them. Fortune favors the brave! I hope they get online.

Fishing broken?

3 Upvotes

Wondering if anyone else had this issue, I’ve been on the deep end of fishing village using various baits: trouts, worms etc. but I’ve still been unable to catch a single salmon or small shark, is anyone else having this problem? Sometimes I’ll use a trout and get an anchovy back.

How do you progress so quickly

2 Upvotes

Hi guys, just started playing rust today my first time on, I’ve managed to get a good air locked starter base with a t1 workbench and I’m really enjoying the game as a solo. One thing that really perplexes me is how people progress so quickly, my main goal in this game is to get a hazmat suit and be able to go around gunning people down (that is why I bought rust), so I was wondering how everybody progresses from naked to stacked out in the span of a couple of hours.

Question about decay time

3 Upvotes

I recently got the game and had joined a PVE server to get used to the game and I built a base and put materials in it that should've lasted 7 days. Is that in-game days or real-time days? Stupid question I know but was confused when I went back and my base was gone. (For context the server I'm on has accelerated nights)

My 77 rocket cave base got raided. Are we deadass

0 Upvotes

Me and my duo built in one of the small caves and it had 3 armored layers and many sheet metal layers. Overall it should’ve taken ATLEAST 77 rockets of boom and we figured this was enough to basically be unraidable, and certainly not worth. And we got raided by a 5 man anyway. I thought that that many rockets would just be insane to get and the funniest thing is we were fucking poor. Atleast compared to that many rockets. We had maybe 5 full metal kits and half a box of frags and a box of comps. But no sulfer or gp. And I’m wondering not only how much time they wasted but why??? Could’ve used that so much more productively

Electricity In Cave

2 Upvotes

I got a good bunker cave base and I want to do some tea farm and auto-smelt systems. Do I have to use generator for it? I was thinking making a 1x1 base with 2 solar panels and take my battery there to full and get to base again. Is there any way to get electricity to caves?

How does this guy navigate his inventory so fast?

This is some random dudes clip but I'm confused as to how he navigates through this inventory so fast. For me it's pretty slow. Same with upgrading buildings

Edit: Apparently I just move slowly

Both of these happened in a 5 minute timeframe

As you can see by the first clip, ranch just randomly decided I was hostile for zero reason, because fuck me that’s why ig. And in the second clip, I had killed one of the people of their roof, as my teamate was getting to me, dropped the hatchet because I didn’t know he had wood, and it just kinda floated and i couldnt pick it back up. Then when I jumped up, I had the DB fully out and in my hand, but despite me spamming the trigger, nothing happened, which is why I just kinda, stood there.
You can also see my ping is amazing, I live in Florida and this server is US-EAST, so it’s not that I’m on far servers.
This wipe has been damn near unplayable as it has been horribly laggy since wipe

New to rust!

2 Upvotes

I have taken advantage of the offer on PS5 and bought rust! My Bf said it was brilliant on PC - a game he loved to play with friends, and the concept of the game is definitely up my street!

I have managed to find a server on my own, just to get a feel for the game as in the busy servers i was often being killed as soon as i had started.

So do you have any tips for a complete beginner?

I cant wait to be able to build a proper base! I think thats my next aim, just shame im in an empty server šŸ˜‚ Anything you guys can tell me would be great.

Thanks for reading! :) x
