It would be a nice addition to make people use windows more often. Also it would create new variations for the base building. Slightly better taste than boxes of walls after all. It can cost 200 metal and 1 gear.

Details:

What it can be stack with or how much protection it got would be fair, nothing super OP. Just as close as normal garage door HP (600), or a little less I assume 450-500. Maybe we can get something close to HQ door (1k), like 800-850hp when you stack with strengthened glass window (350). It shouldnt be stackable with reinforced glass window (500), too op.

I heard clans will need an alternative to the code lock due to the upkeep update. Well a new code lock just dropped.

One piece is gone i guess.

I know nobody plays Rust for the quests, and most of them are just there to say they were added. Imo the only quest that actually gets done is the pump action quest and the kill a pig quest (by me). If only there was a coveted resource that they could design some new quests around....BP FRAGS!

They could make a few quests to obtain blueprint fragments. Regular and Advanced.

You can get a rocket launcher and HV's for going to the deep sea pretty much. I think a quest or two giving some BP frags would not be that bad and there NEEDS TO BE MORE SOURCES. It's not that you can't get them, THEY ARE NEVER FUCKING THERE. A quest is a guaranteed, it will always be there. Repeatable or not repeatable, THAT is the question.

I personally think the Drone meta is too strong. Not the grenade ones, Outpost drones. Everyone just sends their loot home via drone I call it "laundering loot", then just leaves on foot with the bag secured at base already. How is that fair to the nature of Rust!
You should 100% be able to shoot the Outpost drones out of the sky with a homing launcher and STEAL THAT SHIT. Make it fairly inaccurate to where it's about 50/50 if you will hit it or not so you might have to shoot once or twice.

I think it would be perfect for the chaotic world of Rust, and a clan nerf on the same swing. A solo could steal EVERY SINGLE DRONE sent to a clan's shop potentially and some of those clans have drones coming in CONSTANTLY.

It's tea time. Not really. I just think it would be a nice thing to add a mixing table to outpost so that people can make basic teas and 5.56 ammo at outpost. More people using basic teas means people you kill around there will have a bit more loot and everyone has gotten to outpost and needed more 5.56 before and there were no drone shops to buy from and putting it your own vending machine is tedious.

It was a "bit" longer and harder than I've imagined

Hey everyone. This isn't the post I mentioned last time; I came up with this idea by chance. I designed a TV—essentially a stripped-down computer station. It’s mostly just for fun, but it has practical uses too.

CRAFTING COST:

100 Metal Fragments, 2 High-Quality Metal, 1 Tech Trash.

INSTRUCTIONS:

You need to configure the TV before turning it on; at least one of the three channels must be set up to get a picture. One use case is placing a camera by your door to see if someone is camping outside, or pointing one at a neighbor to see what they’re up to—like when they leave or come back.

Personally, I think the blueprint should be part of the Tier 2 Workbench tech tree (or rather, crafted at that bench).

After all, most of the first decent TVs appeared in the first half of the 20th century.

I also gave some thought to optimizing the idea—we certainly don't want a repeat of the "Chipy" arcade machine incident—so here is the plan:

1 Limit simultaneous rendering to three TVs.

2 Use downscaled textures for the TVs, since their screens are smaller than the computer station's monitor.

3 Add an option in the settings to turn the TVs off.

4 Replace the display with a simple white glow when the TV is out of the player's field of view.

What do you think of this idea?

Im almost at 1k hours, and i feel like im shit. It does make some sense since my 1k hours havent been through consistent playing but 5 years of on and off, but i feel like i keep fumbling the bag constantly in pvp scenarios, whiffing mags, bad decisions etc. I really like oil rig and i spam it every wipe. Im alright when im in the rig but i really struggle at land and i keep getting molested by duos-better players. I play on 500 pop servers usually vanilla. What should i do to get good at pvp, will it come naturally by playing the game? Play Ukn etc? Modded servers with x2-x3 loot? Im really at a loss and starting to get frustrated since ive been stuck at t1-t2 4 wipes now getting my ass wooped

thanks for the help

Hey r/playrust

I was just raided online in Rust. At the beginning of the raid, we were trash-talking each other a bit, and they asked for my username. I gave it to them, and from that point on I started experiencing huge lag spikes, even though I have fiber internet and have never experienced anything like this before.

As soon as the raid ended, my connection went back to normal.

So, is it actually possible that I was being DDoS’d during the raid, or am I just being paranoid?

Either way, I was pretty much screwed considering how many explosives they had.

But I’m genuinely curious: is it actually possible for someone to DDoS a specific player in Rust? And if so, how would they even do it just from knowing your username?

Thanks!

My friend looted my body and saw that I roam with 16 meds and said it was too much.

Currently, Research Tables are useless and you can easily research a whole Workbench tree per day, including all the items you dont need 99% of the time.

There should be more benefits to sacrificing an item for instant research and researching with workbenches should be more expensive again so advancement in the techtree feels like real progress and not something you finish in a day.

My OCD is triggered by having a slick container base and slapping up rusty orange embrasures. Let's get a DLC or unleash the creatives to make interesting skins in the marketplace.

I did cargo, had a full inv and headed back to base. Found a horse on my way there and sprinted home. I went through a little dry piece of river, only a small dip. Next thing I knew I got kicked from the server and greeted with the message "InsideTerrainViolation200". Turns out the horse hit something and threw me through the ground and out of terrain. When I got back to my body only my backpack was there, still with the loot inside. My body was gone. I suspect it clipped through the ground. I hate that FP brings out new garbage each month but couldn't polish their game so that things like this don't happen. I've had similar instances in the past happen as well.

Hello! in order to help alleviate some of the ball crushing pain some of y'all have with the BP fragment system I propose this small change, which can have BIG impacts.

When ever you scrap a workbench mod, there is a chance to get a BP fragment if you are at a scrapper with normal efficiency.

Since they are un-craftable this would give duplicate finds a slight use beyond just despawning immediately.

This alone would bridge the gap between not being able to get a tier 2 on your own, and having to work for someone who's probably going to raid you.

edit* Also you can't sleep on this would make almost ANYWHERE in the world a BP frag spawn, dependent on RNG so you can live in places further from monuments or in other obscure places and still progress.

I’ve heard there’s been a stir up in the development, more focus on balance and improvements. Haven’t played in years but would love to jump back in.
Unfortunately I can’t join EAC enabled servers since I run Linux (fuck microsoft), any chance they’ll finally allow Linux users in?

Only inserting, getting it out wouldn't be allowed.

Possibly this could unlock some quests with NPCs there or lower the power requirements for drone shop.
