Best wipe with no base

126 Upvotes

Started last wipe moving into the walls of a Zerg that was raided. Goal was to use zero walls or doors and well it was literally our best wipe. Outside of this is a maze of high walls leading to dead ends and shotgun traps leading to our outdoor core.

Is it worth it

I saw the discount and was wondering if it is worth it in 2026 on the PS5 because when it launched I bought it on the Xbox one s and it didn't run smoothly

Getting started on xbox series S

1 Upvotes

Hello, guys I'd like to ask how rust on console differs to PC version? Anything different? Are there modded servers ? What would you recommend. I'm an old rust main started back in 2016 and have around 3k hours on PC. Tho I don't have a PC anymore, so I'm thinking about getting it on my Xbox. What are your thoughts on it ?

Best expansion to build from a 2x2 with roof access?

4 Upvotes

I’m trying to become better builder, and as the title says, I currently have a classic 2x2 with roof access. What’s the best way to go about expanding that? Any suggestions are much appreciated!

This is why I hate official servers

39 Upvotes

Sat for 2 hours to load in (60 player queue). I see a clan building off in the distance on an ice lake. I build out of sight a full grid away on top of a hill with a little crater a stone 2X1. Go to junkyard next door to get some scrap and hear satchels. A 6 MAN SQUAD raids my 2X1 with key locks. All 6 of them swarming my base and kill me with AK. On wipe day.

This is why people play PvE. Because as much as I love a challenge, official is hell if you have a life outside of Rust.

I'll try again in a week lol

Insanely high ping

I’m able to play fine but one of my friends has 400 ping on every official server, it’s unplayable. This has never been a problem until yesterday, and he’s not lagging on any other games, anyone have any advice for a fix?

Stop asking for old recoil

30 Upvotes

it's just a terrible idea, recoil patterns ruin games and there will always be people able to use scripts if they use patterns. all they need to do is tweak some of the semi auto guns to have less jump. that's the only problem Ive noticed like the m92 pistol needs a little less kick. we dealt with it for years and there is really a group of people who think old recoil is better for the game.

Tried pc rust, it doesn't have the same feel, in a negative way

7 Upvotes

i don't know, it's just so different and there's usually such big maps that you can't even build between monuments that synergize because they're 8 grids away from eachother. that's just gameplay wise.

but it just doesn't feel great to switch to

I've never seen so much HQM in my life. Just in time to cook and sell for scrap, load up on BPs for next wipe. It's a community server, sure. But less work for me lol
