Look under "In Progress"

It's been a struggle trying to find a performant way to implement this

The public facilities will rely solely on the custom map we happen to be using. I have no plans to modify that as I feel the random challenge every month could add more value to the experience.

We're working on an NPC handler to apply the custom NPCs for this map and any map in the future without having to rely on proprietary plugins. Will have something by morning!

Attack heli signal from shop. Would it be possible to set up buying lvl 2 and lvl 3 helis? For someone that is just starting out the lvl 1 is just right, but when you progress and get better, it would be nice to have a little more difficulty.

The plan eventually is to have it randomized so you can't control which level you spawn.

How many servers will there be? 1 for EU, US, and AU? Also ive been wanting more penalties for players for example trading costing credits and teleports to home having a cooldown that increases with use.

Our plan is to offer them same coverage as our main servers. However, to cover costs we'll be expanding slowly. So if/when US takes off we'll expand to EU and AU.

@DeathWhat day will the server be accessible? currently when trying to load a message saying a subscription is required. I currently have vip and subscriber (or at least i did) I still show subscriber discount in store so i assume there is no issue with it. I have never had the red name in game indicating subscriber so maybe there is a issue. Can some one look into this   ? Thanks looking forward to the new server

This was an issue at the time that has since been fixed. Sorry about that!

This month our Elysium server will be featuring a brand new custom map by flouONEs called Last Oasis. This map includes stunning landscapes, over a dozen custom monuments, and pretty exciting lore.

Here's our custom monument picks for the September wipe featuring a brand new monument and a returning community-favorite for players to explore and loot!
 

Oil Refinery
A large-sized monument that needs a blue card to get the full loot. Created by Shemov!

Cobalt Police Department
A medium-sized monument with fun and engaging puzzles as you make your way through the police station. Created by Kaho!

Is it possible to get a 30 minute demo run around the map to check if the ping is decent? Opening the server for non-subscriber VIPs a few hours before wipe would also do .

I can certainly see about opening the server up the day of wipe to let you try it out.

If this is possible we'll certainly look into implementation.

if you already have VIP, and then get subscriber, will u lose VIP?

Not at all. It's a separate membership.

What about a few AI at some of the monuments? Nothing too crazy (like 1-3 on patrol) – just enough to add variety and challenge for the solo players who take longer to progress to the point where they can tackle the bigger ones (i.e. brad, heli, rigs).  

This is extremely dependent on the custom map and will be different each month. I'll keep this in mind when looking for the next map but no promises

I don't know if I'm saying a heresy, but a plugin that doesn't distort the game, but would make it more comfortable would be the: SORTER plugin! for everything else, I love this settings!

That's not something we'd add unfortunately. The server will remain as close to vanilla as possible.

Can we have it so partially looted containers drop their remaining contents, just like on the modded servers?

While this is possible now, I'm going to leave it as-is to try and be as vanilla as possible.

Same protections for chests and sleepers like they have scourge and survival while on modded please  

We will carry over the basic protections offered on our modded servers as they do not effect base gameplay mechanics.

Glad to be chosen to be the first admin chosen for this chill experience  

We're excited to announce the launch of our new Elysium server, which is a part of a series of private servers we will launch over the next year if everything goes well. These servers are intended for those looking for a more chill and exclusive experience while gaming!

These servers are absolutely optional and are intended for those looking for a more quiet place to enjoy themselves. All you need to play these servers is an active subscription.

Our main servers are and will always be our priority. These servers run on their own infrastructure and will never receive exclusive features or divert any resources away from our main servers. If this ever changes you have my permission to chop me in the throat.

If this is something that interests you, you can check out the full details here:  

Elysium is part of a series of private servers that offers players a more chill and exclusive experience or for those seeking a more challenging experience. These servers will not have any exclusive features but will differ from our existing servers in terms of what features they do or don't have.

What's a private server?

A private server is a server that's not open to the public. We achieve this by requiring an active subscription to play. The subscription is the Subscriber membership we've had for a while now.

What's the point?

If you're looking for a more quiet and tailored experience, these servers are for you. The paywall is an added layer of protection to help fight against problematic players and serves as a way to ensure your experience is as exclusive as possible.

These servers will get early access to new features. That's simply a way for us to live-test new features in a controlled environment to ensure they're absolutely ready to launch on our main servers. Outside of that, the servers will be running slightly modified features found on our live servers. They will not have any exclusive features.

How will this affect the main servers?

In short, it won't. We will not be adding any exclusive features as that would create a paywall over new content, which isn't something we're interested in. Our private servers are running on their own infrastructure to not cause any issues to our main servers, which is, and always will be, our priority.

Members of our leadership team will admin the server not to divert any resources away from our live servers. Eventually, we hope to build an independent admin team of server locals to take over the privilege of destroying their social lives.

How do I get started?

All you need is an active subscription  and lowered expectations to enjoy our private servers. You can connect from the server browser or from our connect page! The amount you pledge is totally optional. As long as you have the subscription you'll be able to connect!

Featuring

• Fully custom maps every month
• Reduced QoL features to make gameplay more challenging
• Independent infrastructure to avoid isolated issues and optimal performance
• Early access to new features (You'll be tricked to live test new feature for our main servers)
• Additional overhead to allow for more lax changes that's not possible on main servers, like ridiculous animal spawns, and a crackhead amount of skins in /skin

Suggestions for our Pure PvE server. All feedback is welcomed and appreciated!

You're not banned, nor have you ever been banned. As said above you simply received a chat mute. That was your warning, as the alternative would have been an actual ban.

Suggestions for our Elysium PvE server. All feedback is welcomed and appreciated!

You'll need to submit a help ticket or contact an admin in-game or in our Discord @ discord.gg/rustez

Add zombies to all servers. (Joking) (maybe) lol

We're working on implementing new systems to help keep clutter down on all of our servers.

Here are our custom monument picks for the August wipe, featuring two new large monuments for players to explore and loot!

Vault Tec  
An apocalyptic monument from the Fallout game. It has excellent detail and optimization with robots. Inside, you can find good loot, a puzzle with a fuse, and a red card. There is average radiation in the garbage pit.  By Gruber.

The Prison - Rustcoon City
Find a way out... but don't do it alone. It could be a problem and you'll be there... forever! By Kaho
