Dirty Harry

So I'm curious. What's your best or funny in the world of Rust, whether it was on a PvP or PvE server?

Mine was kind of irritating, but in the end it was plain funny and actually cool to watch happen. The first week ever playing Rust, I was on a PvP server kind of just roaming around praying I wouldn't be destroyed by an animal or human. I roamed for an hour or so until I met a random. At that point I thought to myself "Shit I'm about to get wrecked by a randy and all I have is a damn rock and no clothes." To my surprise the guy (can't remember his name) offered to help me with starting out and that later lead to teaming up.

So on to the second part. We searched and found a neat and flat spot to build a base. After an hour or so of gathering and looting we finally had a 5 story based armored out and had all the goodies. It felt awesome to accomplish all of it with just being my first week, but within the next 30 minutes it turned to a brutal nightmare. The guy said he had to go for alittle bit and to keep an eye on the base. I said no problem and had continued to farm and build. While farming I heard mumbling from someone in the distance. That someone wasn't just one person it was a good 15 people or what you'd call a "Zerg" clan. They had mowed me down in seconds. I spawned back in the base thinking I was safe....WRONG! The greasy people already scoped out the base. I looked out from a sniping window and saw them getting ready to blow it to the ground and all they could say is "Merry Christmas" That's when they decided to outright foundation wipe the base. 

That's my moment in Rust that sucked but yet was funny because I forgot the main advice in Rust. Don't Trust Anyone and Don't Grow Attached to Possessions.

Would I do it again? You're damn right I would.

New day vote system has also been added.

Awesome although I go AFK at night anyways. I do say I like the vanilla, but I prefer the Modded one. It's got potential

I've added increased stack sizes to resources doubling them from their original 1,000 limits to now 2,000.

Awesome I was going to mention increased stacks. The leveling system allows more gather per level and we fill up quicker (fine by me I live that) Another thought is a quest system. Gathering without meaning does get a bit tiresome. So my thought is quests involving gathering of animal products and resources a possible reward upon completion.

The admins are pretty dope and most of the people I run into on the server are helpful. Hope you enjoy the stay on the server. I been on it since the birth of the server and nothing compares to it :). Hope to see you around.

I used to work shipping delivering material and we were required to wear special vests that circulated cold water. Nothing beats a cold tshirt on a hot day.

Now that's treating an employee good. Boss here tells us to quit complaining and work harder. Could be worse I suppose, people that can pull as much time in a day and work twice as hard deserve props. Not everyones bred for working in hot temps

Dude...Amazon?!? Amazons the shit. But yeah 12's blow especially like today its 102 out with heat index and I work in a non air conditioned building. I feel like I'm slowly dying.

We're with you in heart and memory!

Lol that's a bit creepy good sir  It's s damn hot in the shop where I work so I just want to be lazy and game. Besides I'm addicted to Rust.

You know the struggle is real if you're at work and want to play Rust, but the only thing you have to use is a MacBook and it's too laggy to run.  Story of my life.

Keep up the nice work and Survive on! 

The community is pretty dope. Most people are really helpful. Hope I see you around one of these days. Don't be afraid to say hello if you see me

I buy stuff from your shops all the time.

I work in Underground coal mining in Australia. I am a crew supervisor, work 13hr shifts. My work is ~2hrs drive from home, so I stay at accommodation at the mine site. I work Mon to Thurs, giving me weekends at home.

Thats why I enjoy this server with the no decay / no raiding rules - my progress doesn't get taken away just because I have to leave for work

Damn bet your job is stressful and hope it pays well. And I couldnt do a 2 hour drive justto work I hate being stuck in a car. And yeah I like the erver for same reasons aswell. I can play and come back a week later and still ahve all my stuff. Hell hope I see you in the server sometime. Maybe next wipe we can team up and build and explore some stuff. Solo gets boring after awhile

Bear and boar spawns have been increased.

Thank you. Been too scarce on the goods. now my bone knife will have purpose in life.

Just now, Death said:

I have to work twice as hard to make people happy so they can then forgive my fuck ups!

Well all make mistakes , it's just a way for us to get better. Had to do a shout out. There's only you and Syn running the show so it's got to be extremely stressful. And to do what ya'll do is like you guys are machines.

So I figured since people have been recognized for their awesome helping skills and what not I'd give one to our main dude. @Death you're one of the most legit admins I've come across on Rust. Most servers I'd play on were full of toxic people and admins. Between real life stuff and whatever else you still somehow find time to update the site and constantly help us as a community on your fine Rust server. I sir give you mad props on that because that's more than most can handle and yet you come on all calm and cool about it all. You're also one of the few admins next to Syn to come lurk on me by my base and help me fix stuff and give me advice on where I screw up. But once again thanks for all that you do in terms of helping and interacting with us. One day I'll find a way to repay you other than them Black Jesus Memorials.

For the animal spawn after the force wipe. Bears to today seen 2. wolfs 1, deers and horses are mostly seen. I would prefer more animals on the server because without danger or the feel of danger it is just not pve it is more pv?. The cold does not kill us or the hot temperature. Bears give the best resources and are easy to kill even with a bow (5 min in game for crafting). The wolfs are problematic. Fast and hard to hit and on top they are stealthie and little. I would prefer more bears, boars and deers with less wolf population.

I agree with you. And sunday i think i literally seen only 1 bear and a couple horse and a few boar. wolves i dont see much in my area which is fine but I agree with more bears, boars and deer. Its kind of hard to accumulate low grade unless your hunting for components and see them in barrels.

This has been handled. Thanks for reporting this @Billy Madison .

No problem. I been getting pissy with the stuff. It literally went on all day and no one could stop it.

Beta 3 has been delayed and is expected to be released 06-04-2017.

It's all good man. You can take your time seeing as the sites fine how it is for now. Just keep up the good work

Death could you do some of us favor and figure this guy out. Been spamming the chat with rude racist and stupid remarks. Everything from burning Jews to whatever else he has roll out of his mouth. Some of us aren't appreciative of it . Thanks 

(I assume from the screenshot you can figure out the player)

Way to go guys. You two deserve it. There's not a whole lot of people that would of gone out of their ways to help someone in need. 

@premedicated Anythings better than nothing honestly. It's just cool that I've actually met some people that aren't thousands of miles away. And you had mentioned Sourthen Wisconsin. Im located in Janesville to be exact. I'd of aimed for success, but I made alot of poor choices years ago and now I'm feeling it. Everything I know and do is all self taught so I cant complain.

i've had a pretty tough/weird life - born in canada to Finnish immigrants, came to the US as a kid, went and dropped out of art college in canada again, lived above a bar in chicago, lived in a few strange places and also homeless in california, now i'm back in Illinois living with parents while i tackle the first few years of a fine arts degree so i can either transfer to a better school to get them good jobs, or see what i can get with an associate's.

i've dabbled in game making and writing, my main talents are illustration, sculpture, and fashion.

Crazy man. Hope all goes well for you and get to do what you truly like to do. Also it's crazy we are a state away. You mentioned you once lived in Chicago. I did too along time ago til family decided to move to sourthern wisconsin. Still only 2hrs from Chi-Town
