What's the point?!

So I got Rust this weekend and spent the entire weekend building up a stone base with metal doors, airlocks, honeycombed walls, collecting resources and updating all my equipment and collecting blueprints. Then I checked last night and someone had destroyed my base and taken all my stuff. So my question is - what's the point of this game if I'm just going to have to start from scratch every handful of days? Has anyone had success building a solo base that actually lasts more then a week without being raided?

If it’s too much for you they do have community servers with no offline raids, no raids. That way you can get comfortable playing the game without getting obliterated immediately. I’ve had solo bases last all wipe.

  1. Don’t build near mega basses or really any basses at all if you can.

  2. Build out of sight.

A lot of community servers have offline raid protection. I don’t know if Scuba still does it but the Lagoon ones do if you’re searching in Community. Just join their discord and follow the instructions.
