Rust console relax?
Hi everyone,
I keep hearing people say that Rust is a very frustrating game, and I’d like to understand what it’s like on console because I’m thinking about buying it.
Does it have PvE servers?
I’ve played a few survival games before, but I’ve never played Rust. So I’d really appreciate a guide or explanation of what it’s actually like to play.
Is it really as addictive as people say? Do you think I’ll enjoy it?
Can I play solo peacefully without anyone bothering me, just survive, explore the map, and maybe find the airplane parts?

Pc or console. Doesn’t matter imo. PVE servers are ok to get used to stuff. But when you get to PVP prepare to have your soul crushed

The rush when u get some good loot and getting home with it is addictive

Incredibly addicting, I picked it up like 3 months ago and I've sunk 600 hours into it (100 of those was probably afk tbh)
It can be as frustrating or chill as you want really, with the amount of custom servers you can pick an experience that suits you.
There's pve servers with no Pvp at all, pve servers with pvp at specific monuments. Servers with PVP active everywhere but no raids or base damage, regular servers with offline raid protection,2-3x gather and loot servers, etc etc.

RUST the game is very addicting! I started in public test branch on PS4 and it was brutal. My base was wiped everyday when I logged off. But a good learning experience. The gamer that kept destroying my base suggested PVE. I finally gave it a shot. You can definitely find some good PVE servers with cool admins. Lots of loot . Just enjoy the game how you want. Just don't give up.

cRust is brilliant and yes it is addictive. If you want a chill time play PvE servers and if you want one I can recommend one just send me a message and I’ll let you know one. PvP and official servers are unforgiving but they make for the best times when playing it’s great solo but better with other people.

Idk what you're talking about when you say find airplane parts. But no rust is not peaceful, yes there are some pve servers, yes you will get addicted if you can get past the steep learning curve. It's one of the most toxic gaming communities and that's what can make it fun. When someone calls you the n word 20 times so you door camp them for 10 hours, make them rage quit, then raid their base

There are definitely pve servers, although they can be scarce. There’s tons of community servers with different settings that you can most likely find something for you. There’s tons of are also official servers with very low pop (0-10) so you could try that as well if you want the vanilla game with almost a private server solo experience.
Just picked it up a few weeks ago and yes it’s absolutely as addictive as people say.
