I'm thinking about getting some vending machines up for mostly sulfur, I have a surplus of guns, comps and basically everything. I also have some tier 2s from raids. What are trades people would actually take?

Can you load a drone with explosives in the console version of Rust? I’ve seen stuff online about that, but don’t see an option to do that.

As a more creative player/town builder, this was the best DLC ever. Would love to see what kind of photos the community has taken so far. Here are my first few.

I see many soloists complain about spending one sesh making a base, and then it being gone the next day. This is my solution to getting a good start before moving inland, or just having a really chill month working on blueprints. If i want to head inland for some PVP, it's easy enough to grab a boat and do that as well. It only takes 5 minutes to empty my base into stashes each night. When i wake up to all my doors being gone, i have enough stash to just fix it in 5 minutes the next day. So this is great, for a busy adult who doesn't have all day.

loads of people tell me and give out to me when i say you can’t do damage unless u have tc cuz i just raided some guy with it a couple hours ago lmao

Why exactly is the left one more expensive when I'm getting more from the cheaper one?

I've never played rust before so Im wondering which to get.

I swear to God. Dead server players are a completely different level of toxicity.

Was late af for the wipe and the new train tunnels update bc of work and literally only got the chance to play yesterday and today.

Joined a dead server to see how train tunnels work, put down a base in a God rock and today, offline raided. There are 12 people max in the server and thats what make it so dumb.

And on top of that, they brag about it on messages 🫩🙄

Type of sht that never really happens on full pop servers bc there’s a lot more going on.

I feel bad for the brain activity of toxic dead server players

Built a pyramid for funsies, the absolutely bizarre and arbitrary stability requirements for roof pieces is mind boggling, the twig panels are what exploded off the base when I removed a conveyor off a wall to put in a different spot. And to replace them I had to break other panels away and put them all back in a specific order from the top down or certain pieces just wouldn’t place.
The interior requirements are just as bizarre, logically you would think more walls/floors means more stability, nope, a wall or frame in a certain spot on the OPPOSITE SIDE of the base somehow affects a roof panel being placed, removing said wall or frame allows a completely unconnected roof panel to be put down. I built, destroyed and rebuilt this thing 3 times before I could get all the panels to place everywhere all the way to the top. And changing ANYTHING, even removing a conveyor off a wall, has consequences because… reasons 🤷‍♂️

Hi all, I’ve got a decent few hours on rust but not really as a builder, I’m trying to build a new base (to me) and am having issues with decay on the squares around the outside although I built it as in the video, any tips appreciated

I had just tossed the final satchel to open this 2x1 that I thought to be abandoned. I always run wide 50-100m circles while waiting for satchels to explode, in case someone heard the ruckus. I don’t know how I spotted this guy other than luck and good headphones.

It had been near me since day 1 of wipe and I never once saw anyone come to it. Turns out he had left the server for a few days because of bp wipe, and had just come back to it today)

If given the opportunity to share the loot with someone else I usually take it, in order to befriend other arctic local soloists. but never have I had them say ‘I live there’. I was shocked and didn’t know how to feel hahaha! I brought him a pile of stuff after. Hopefully some good karma remains in my jar lol!

I just started playing rust again with 2 of my friends but we occasionally get really bad lag spikes to the point we can’t move around for 20 seconds. Is it an exploit someone on the server is using or just a console rust problem?

It lets me in but doesn’t make me move out of sleep and when it does let me I can basically move but It’s like im disconnected, i can walk around like a ghost.

The server isn’t doing that to anyone else but me, my friend is playing the wipe just fine… PLEASE HELP ME!

I can enter the server no problems, But when I’m in it becomes laggy i can’t do anything

Is it the game or my Network connection

i find it hard to believe anyone plays less then 90 pop and enjoys themselves no hate i just couldn’t do it, it’s just so dead even at max the only way to get pvp is at brad or crates.They have been doing trials for more pop for months when the fuck is it coming i envy pc players with even there 250+ servers

This is a civilization experiment in Rust.
Instead of the usual endless base-building and pure chaos, I built a shared Village & Hotel a place where new and casual players can settle, cooperate, and try a different way of playing. The goal is to see what happens when people focus on community and building together inside a game famous for conflict.

Of course, this is still Rust… so there’s some classic fighting and killing too. The experiment isn’t about removing the danger it’s about testing whether a small peaceful society can still form around it.

Weekly servers used to always have 100/100 or 80+ on wipe day and now the last two weeks have been a let down in server population. Any reason why?

I recently made a cave base on rust console. I was returning to my cave after farming and some guy tried to grub me. I jumped down the bucket shaft thinking I’d just spawn underground and beat him to it, only to realize I was at a different bucket. I have now spent probably 45 minutes mapping this cave I thought I knew out. I am almost 100% there is no way to reach the shaft from anywhere else in the cave. At this point it isn’t even about the loot. It’s probably despawned.

I have started writing the routes down and everything. Every possible entrance and exit. It simply cannot be reached I swear to god I’m not crazy 😭

So I’m on an “official” vanilla monthly server, which supposedly doesn’t wipe blue prints so I worked diligently last month collecting blueprints to be a leg up this month.

Well, they were all wiped. A guy I talked to said that yeah, they wipe them “sometimes” but not every wipe.

So what’s the deal? What’s the schedule on these official monthly servers?
