I like this game

Only playable if you dont have a life

Rust is a game for clans. Solo playing is either not possible or not fun. If you try to play solo, you'll be out numbered by a clan of trolls within a week. It takes forever just to get the basics, especially solo. Server wipes are a joke, because hard-core Rust players will dump 12 hours non-stop on the day of the wipe. I personally cannot justify doing that & having to dump insane hours daily just to stay relevant in the game is more a chore than fun. The amount of time and effort required when solo is just not worth it. Success in this game is purely down to how much time you invest in it, so it will be dominated by either large clans, or people who have no job & just play games all day.

So you're probably saying, "well, just form a clan".

Rust is not a good game to make friends. You CAN make friends, but its long punishing trials to do it. A typical rust conversation in-game is "Hello, hows it going?" and then taking a bullet to the head. The average players are immature trolls & only seem interested in communicating to be abusive rather than friendly competition or teamwork. You would have to be willing to die & be trolled over a dozen times, just to meet half decent human beings in this game. That was definitely my experience. With that said, the best way to form a group, is to form one outside of the game ahead of time.

But if your group is not covering your base in shifts so that it is protected 24/7, then either a larger clan that has the man-power to patrol in 24 hour shifts, will out-perform you; or a tiny band of losers with no jobs will. Games should be fun, not chores.

But this leads me to the final issue. Even playing this with a group & managing a few bases, it honestly got rather boring because you just run out of things to do, presumably because it's still "early access". So in it's current state, it isn't worth $20. Luckily I picked this up on sale for $10, so not much of a loss.

I will give this game a chance to improve with time and review again after. But in the meantime I will not play vanilla servers & will only play with a group of 5+ in different time zones. I recommend if you already own this game, that you explore mods cause vanilla isn't worth the effort.

Absolute wank for new players.

If you are playing with your friends can be good game but the other side stay as far away from this game as possible, annoying bugs and some cheaters can be frustrating

PROS:

- White people adopt you if your naked
- You hit people to death with rocks
- You get to see puss for free
- Brutally slaughtering a naked with a rock is satisfying af

CONS:

- Leveling up takes a f*ckin life time
- Black People with cloths on are not to be trusted

Unless you're playing with friends just forget this. Everyone and I mean everyone will shoot you on sight with no questions asked. Sure the game is about survival but other players make it impossible to play it alone.

Rust.

So, I've got a lot of hours on Rust, mainly from just running around as a naked player. It's pretty impossible to play the game unless you have a group. You have people with guns in their base just KOSing players and sometimes..they even come out to kill you. No matter who you are, what you have, they all require blood and death.

Rust = Base Wars

The OLDER version of Rust, was better in my opinion, was able to actually get stuff done.

Rust is just a Deathmatch with Base Building.

If I could refund this game for what it has become, I would definitely do that.

Rust is a sandbox online survival game , where your main and only objective is to survive by various ways. Like: crafting weapons, and by forming an alliance. There are many people playing this game daily and for the first sight I must declare: don't play this game if you are a rage-quitter. You will start (most of the times) with a stone and a torch at the beginning. If you level up you can craft or build more things. This game has been made by the creators of Garry's Mod. When you log off and start the game again in a different or the same server, your stats will reset. So if you were level 11 you will start the server again, with the level you was at the begin.


The game is amazing, I already died in the first 3 minutes of playing this game. After reading a guild for beginners I finally understood the purpose of surviving the game: git gud. So I hitted a tree with my stone for gathering wood to build a spear. By hitting the tree you can get 10 woods and some xp to level up. With 300 woods you can craft a spear. When I was finished with crafting my spear, I tried to make a wooden house. But when I was heading towards a tree, I saw a lonely bear and thought that I could beat him for meat. The bear killed me instead like it was nothing. The only thing that unfortunate is of the game is that the devs aren't working anymore on the plans they had shown for like a year ago, like: modular cars and mountable horses.

After a few times of dying in Rust, I was finally ready to beat down some people. I had a house nearby a river, many food, some clothes, and some serious weapons: like a bow. I hunted down a few people and raided some bases. When I was at the top of a mountain in Rust I heard some gunshots nearby from the place I was. I started thinking in myself, shall I head back to my house. So I headed back to my house and saw someone heavily armed running after an animal. I followed him and when he hunted down the animal, I took my bow and tried to aim for his head. But the arrow was shot on his body, he turned in my direction, took his gun and shot me a few times until I was dead.

My impressions of the game.

The game is fun, but only if you know the game more than you did in the first time playing. The game has good graphics and good sound. The chat can be somehow annoying and somehow funny.


Pros

- The game is fun
- Many weapons to craft
- Different things to build
- Different clothes to craft
- Open World
- Supply drops by planes
- Has trading cards
- Good graphics
- Good sound


Cons

- No achievements
- No clothes at begin
- Most of the times no mercy
- Hard game for beginners
- The developers don't spent anymore time about making their beloved plans




The game is nice and I would recommend you the game, except if you are a rage quitter and will stop playing this game because of dying too much in the game.

I ran around naked crushing innocent people to death using only a rock.
Then I ran home, played rust and did the same thing.
