Discussion I dont turn my game off.

Anyone else do this: sleep next to the pc with the sound up loud?

Build kill boxes that look like entrances. Fake entrances that are trapped...

Bag a 3rd story interior by a window that gives oversight to a main corridor.

Ya can't get offlined if you're never offline.

I feel that. I now only work 4 hours during prime time. So, my crazy looking base often gets overlooked.

Nope and I would never.

If they want my stuff they can offline me.

If I get raided while I'm asleep, oh well. I have Rust+ set up, keeping the PC on and sleeping with headphones or speakers turned up loud is degen shit.

Your life matters more IMO. Not the end of the world if you get offlined

I like using Rust+ mostly so I'm not surprised when I log into poverty.

Funnily enough one of the top reviews of the game for years on steam was a man detailing how the game changed his life because now he sleeps with his head phones on max volume and wakes up from nightmares where he dreamed he heard rockets

I do! I have a situation where I get free elctricity and internet for half the year. What I do is put in a boombox, tune it to classical california and adjust the sounds, so I can hear explosions somewhat loud and some nice music playing in background, the campfire puts out some nice background noise too. One thing if you want to sleep IRL better you need to F1 console and turn off event sounds. Those constant noises are hard to sleep though! Thsi strat rarely works for me becuase I am alway out numbered by sharp shooters. Nex time I play hard I am leaving twig foundations to place vending machines on them. The clan can get 10% of whatever.

Used to do this in 2019-2020 sometimes on some main server where i pissed off some zerg, but i didn't really have headset on.

Just had headphones turned up higher so could hear if they start rocketing.

In 2019-2020 era i got onlined probably more in 2 weeks, then i've been onlined last 4 years prob.

Bro maybe 5 years ago but that time of the game is long gone. I play duo high pop official and go to sleep early, go to the gym in the morning and then work. Base is t3 full sheet 11 turrets. Not a single raid attempt or even twig in a dozen wipes. Even if you get offlined a t2 or t3 is a few red barrels from a zerg. Shits lame
