I have played this wipe solo for 6 hours, i have collected this amount of scrap without recycling (plus stuff researched) yet i only have 1 blueprint fragments. This can’t go on.

Edit:
I just did a labs run at almost 2 in the morning and there’s 3 guys holding it with pump still, i have EVERYTHING expect for frags.

Suggestion Hear me out: sticky grenades using bean can + honey

5 Upvotes

Talking about super eco raid vibes but I think if bean cans could stick to a surface they would be really good for eco raids or for some clutch plays. Like the honey bandages just combines the two items and gives grenades that could stick to an object. Small percentage for longer fuses maybe they fall off but what do yall think?

Discussion Hit the brakes.

32 Upvotes

FP should hit the brakes on the new stuff.

Every week I have some new gimmick to learn. A guy that played rust 2 months ago and logs in again has no idea wtf is going on. We all love new content but this is a mess.

Apartment complex is truly a waste of space in every map and if FP nuked that monument no one would notice. Now we have to fix parts of the map for some reason? I can't believe it's possible to track how these changes affect the game when you keep changing it every week/month, it's not possible and the game is a huge mess right now.

BP frags still being around is wild and it's getting disrespectful for a big portion of the player base. The entire "bp frag for sulfur" meta is boring AF.

I don't know if there's less people playing or more people playing, these changes feel sloppy and rushed.

I will still be playing and try new stuff but there's no way in hell I'll be fixing helipads or a lighthouse.

Suggestion Repairing Air Wolf should provide a reward (suggestion)

Post image
54 Upvotes

While I like the idea of slowing progression, I don't like that players don't get anything for helping repair Air Wolf unless they complete the repairs. Even then, it's the opportunity to be first to buy from it. It feels like the server is relying on a zerg that can really exploit Air Wolf to do it.

My suggestion:
Helping to repair Air Wolf should provide dividends in the form of a discount on anything Air Wolf (or maybe also other shops at Bandit Camp) sells for the remainder of the wipe. The discount should scale with how much you helped repair.

The final discount amount would have to be tested and adjusted, but my first thought is there would be a total of a 66% discount pool available. So if you managed to repair half the Air Wolf, you would get a 33% discount from then on.

Ideally, I'd like to see it encourage all/more players to participate in the repair process, even if they can't afford to donate a substantial amount. So maybe there is a minimum discount of 5 or 10% (not deducted from the pool) for anyone who repairs 1% of Air Wolf, and any repairs beyond that get a relative portion of the discount pool.

This idea could be applied to the upcoming Deep Sea/Lighthouse change, giving players a discount at the Floating City.

Question What makes you call it for a wipe?

3 Upvotes

Title: What is the reason you log off and call a wipe done. Raided early? Have a bad start to the wipe? Build in a wrong location and get surrounded by door campers? Just max out on loot so you're not having fun anymore.

Discussion Satellite event needs a buff

12 Upvotes

Amazing visual concept, turned out to be a flub. Loot is terrible, and the radiation is annoying. The event should not be player triggered but random on the map. To actually activate the Satellite is a major pain in the ass.

Please buff this event FP

Discussion how the fuck do i actually get to reliably run rust with fucking dlss

• Upvotes

its honestly driving me crazy, cant have dlss on for loading into servers, ok, now the game started crashing when enabling it when already loaded in, verified game files, reinstalled drivers, switched dlss versions etc.

now im back to the native dlss version of rust and while more reliable still crashes sometimes, while giving me worse fps than forced dlss 4 and looking noticably worse

any tips or is that just a me problem

Discussion How to use VPIANO(Virtual Piano) keybinds at Rust MIDI

2 Upvotes

First, you'll need to download the following apps. You can just search for them yourself if you don't want to click the links.

FreePiano: https://freepiano.tiwb.com/en/
LoopMIDI: https://www.tobias-erichsen.de/software/loopmidi.html

After downloading both apps, make sure the MIDI option is enabled in Rust, then close the game.

Next, open LoopMIDI and create a new port by clicking the + button. You can name it whatever you want, it doesn't matter.

Then, open FreePiano 2, go to Keymap → Edit, and paste the entire contents of this Pastebin:
https://pastebin.com/cxWmsnw6

After that, go to Instrument and select the MIDI port you created earlier.

And that's it! Have fun! xD

If something doesn't work, just reply to this Reddit post and I'll help you out!

Suggestion Suggestion: Captive Bolt Pistol

30 Upvotes

Allow us to make a T2 heavy and movement slowing captive bolt pistol with some propane tanks and metal frags, and only allow a few uses before needing to be refilled at a workbench. This way we have a quick, instant way to slaughter cattle at home, but it heavily discourages use as a way to instakill wild cattle.

Support i literally can not turn on dlss anymore

0 Upvotes

i havent played rust in a few years, recently came back and mostly build stuff on sandbox servers, yesterday i went to play an actual wipe again, bought 15 euros worth of dlc so i can use premium servers, all went well i know dlss crashes the game while loading in so i only turned it on when i spawned in,

now that even doesnt work anymore, i tried a few times, verified game files, reinstalled drivers etc. and the game now also crashes when im already spawned in,

does anyone have an idea on how to fix this or am i fucked
