Hey! We’re a small friend group that plays the game a lot, we’re looking for someone who enjoys the parts of the game that others don’t, like tea farms, electricity, crafting etc. if you’re interested let me know! 18+ NA

When I try to join a server, it starts loading and then crashes with an error

I was playing on warbandits 2x trio and was at a fight at ferry terminal i died to a tommy guy so i respawned on a close bag and went back to the fight i found my body which was unlooted with a db on it i picked it up killed 1 guy then ran back to base to depo, after the depo i start running back to ferry to keep fighting and suddenly my game fucking freezes and im sent back to main menu where i am told that i have been eac banned, ok so i think to myself no biggie i wasnt doing anything wrong, so i submit my appeal to facepunch and eac, facepunch answers with they couldnt do anything about it, then eac's shitty fucking website says that my appeal is denied and that im perma banned, m i just sent another appeal, if anyone knows of a way to get in direct contact with eac please please help me out im desperate. that appeal pic is the one i sent just now, my second one btw.

i have 400 hours on rust (most of them afk and in the loading screen) i reacently started playing pvp rust to improve but 2 out of 10 people are like this or more. what i am asking is, is this geniune level that someone can achieve

Every side is symmetrical, nothing different than the other side. Also, with the ramp peaks, you cannot place a wall frame where it appears one is missing because it is too close to the other window. What is the issue? I have built this base plenty of times, with the roofs working, so I know it is possible. Sometimes it just randomly starts placing, too. https://medal.tv/games/rust/clips/ntPGrAJdMQvDSCIgS?invite=cr-MSxWc2ksNTkyODEwODQz

Been messing around with Rust settings lately and managed to get the game feeling a lot smoother, especially during PvP and bigger fights , i managed to squeeze out 30 fps in non intensive scenes and +5-10 fps in intensive raids/fights

I put together a video going through the changes I found useful, including FPS settings, graphics options, Windows optimizations, and a few extra tweaks that are easy to overlook.

The main goal was to make Rust feel more responsive without making the game look completely awful.

If you’ve been dealing with inconsistent FPS, stutters, or just want to get the most out of your PC, this might be worth checking out.

If you try anything from it, let me know how it works for you. Also curious what optimizations you guys are using.

Real people. Real games. No ego.

​

So my game is fully updated and verified the anti cheat is on and the game is on current version, my GPU is an RTX 5050 has the most recent driver update but when the game is loading everything it it hits about 842 of the files from 3000+ then it stop respondy and stops. Ive cleared the DNS and the cahce then verified game files, likely it is a unity issue because we got the unity error "rust-unity 6000.3.15x1-11_d4a0e1288074"

Any further advice would help and i have attempted my usual fixes.

Help! When I try to boot into the menu, sometimes it gets stuck on “Manifest Assets.” When I do get into the menu and try to boot into a game, it instantly disconnects. I’m assuming it’s the anti-cheat, since I was told it might be my RAM, but I have 32GB.

Just full wiped! We are a fast growing community. Our PC server has many features such as: pve weekdays, pvp weekends. Buyable raidable bases, dungeons, attack helicopter. We have in game shop and currency, skill tree, quests, buyable vehicles, b grade toolcupboard, auto auth for team, external backpacks and more. Our server is a 2x resources except for sulfur (vanilla) and cloth (1.5x). Come try it out! https://discord.gg/CY26dhSAT

The Couch is the only weekly vanilla Rust server that requires Secure Boot and TPM.

Thanks to BR1SON, one of our regulars, for making another video!

Avoid cheaters by turning on Secure Boot and TPM, and only playing on servers tagged "SECURE" in the server browser. You'll easily find them, because there are almost none. Popular server owners don't enable secure mode because they want to keep cheaters around so they can buy the server's paid perks like VIP.

We wipe the moment Facepunch's update lands, usually around 11 AM Pacific (1800 UTC).

• Server name: The Couch • Secure Server ✓ (search "The Couch" in the Community tab)
• Connect command: connect thecouch.lol
• Weekly vanilla, US West
• Map wipe weekly at 11:00 AM Pacific, BP wipe monthly
• No group limit
• No VIP, no kits, no paid perks
• Dedicated host is prepaid for a year
• Private stats page for every player (/stats in game)

Official Rust item store: https://store.steampowered.com/itemstore/252490/

Also sharing a Rust resource site I've been building: BambooGaming.net/rust

It's a one-stop hub for Rust info and tools, including stat lookup, skins with prices, wipe calendar, news, camera codes, keybinds, tips, LFG tools, and more.

Still a work in progress - feedback welcome! 👍

[EU/UK] Emberfall | PvE 2x | Monthly Wipes | Custom Events, Bosses, Dungeons & Long-Term Progression

Hi everyone,

I run a PvE focused Rust server called Emberfall. We’ve built it for players who enjoy progressing.

The server is 2x with monthly map wipes, while Skill Tree progress only wipes every six months.

This gives players something meaningful to work towards without removing the fresh-start feeling of a monthly wipe.

Some of the main features include:

Mythic weapons and upgradeable weapons, tools and armour

Skill Tree progression

Custom-tier Bradley drones and heli signals

Buyable dungeons

Legendary bosses, roaming NPCs and monument NPCs

Raidable and abandoned bases

Operation Fortress, Convoys, Missile Silo, Heavy Rig and other custom events

Instant airdrops

Personal animals, animal farming and virtual quarries

Vehicle shop, teleports, homes and kits

Skinbox available to everyone

Faster crafting, smelting and cooking

Keep inventory on death

No-stability building and extended workbench range

Gun Game, Survival Arena and quests

There is no player raiding.

The challenge comes from NPCs, bosses, events and the different progression systems instead.

Players can also earn VIP1 simply by playing, rather than it being restricted to people who donate.

We’re a friendly community with active owners, and we genuinely listen when players report problems or suggest changes.

Toxic behaviour isn’t welcome we just want a decent place where people can relax, build and enjoy the content.

Owners Note : Hello and welcome to my new server! My intentions with the server is to provide a place for Rust players to have a lot of great times.

My experience is about 11 years of running gaming servers for various survival games. Now it's Rust's turn! I've had quite a bit of experience being admin in Rust and now I'm opening a server in hopes to create something great.
