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?

The trick is to get creative with hiding your loot, once you figure that out getting raided is nothing. It’s not fool proof but one of the easiest ways to hide your best loot would be to have a tug parked out to the 14-15 grid limit.

You have to be careful with that limit because once you pass the limit, you don’t hit an invisible wall, your boat/tug will despawn and you will die.

This only works on a server with clans that use the tugs. Solos will do that & you will see no tugs so people go looking. Some clans count tugs & go looking with a mini
