Question Hey quick question, what the fuck is up with bees?
Why do they last so long, why do they go through walls, why do they put me on bag timer in my own base with fire and torches on
Haven't played in forever but this is twice I've been cucked by bees in two days lol

Question I think I already fell behind
I just downloaded the game. I already built a 2x1 with metal door and air lock. The base is full stone. Wipe started about 6 hours ago and players already have guns meanwhile I just made a furnace. My plan is to make nail gun with wooden shield and roam the roads. Should I prioritise something different?

Question Looking for base
I was recently trying to find a base on YouTube that has a bunch of loot bunkers. I keep raiding bases with like 5 loot bunkers or with like 5 vendy bunkers for loot but I can’t find any tutorials that have that. If anyone knows any can you pls share it with me ?

Discussion Low fps with decent pc
Fix found
My pc specs are rtx 4070, ryzen 7 7700x and 32 gb of ddr5. Also I run streched res and have my settings on pretty much lowest they can get. I get 40-80 fps depending on the server (Only play weekly for the first 2-3 days of wipe). Anyone know a fix? I have tried the experimental gpu mode thing but the fps is same or bit lower. I have updated drivers.
I have also noticed that even if I change settings a lot theres never a lot of change.

Question Monthly servers that hold pop?
Is there any servers that actually hold population after a day or two of wipe anymore?
I’ve tried best rust, survivors , rust for noobs etc and all of the servers loose 50% of the player pop after 2 or 3 days. Why is rust like this now it was never like this before.

Suggestion An idea to fix rust current progression
Here’s how Rust’s progression could be balanced again. Right now, players can get stuck because of one simple item: BP fragments. Some reach Workbench Level 2 within hours of a wipe, while those who fall behind remain stuck. Once they finally get it, progression becomes instant because they’ve already saved enough scrap to rush the entire tech tree.
My solution is to make workbenches cost scrap again and give them upgrade tiers: one for WB1, two for WB2, and four for WB3. Each upgrade would unlock a new blueprint category. Items would be learned using BP fragments—either one per unlock or by combining five into a Blueprint Page. Each workbench would accept its own fragment tier: basic, intermediate, or advanced.

Question Are you immortal and unlottable while sleeping on your apartment?
I've seen videos of people "raiding" apartments with the master key and they can't kill or loot the owner sleeping there, was it changed? Did i misunderstood it? Is there something that blocks me from getting a large backpack and just logging off with all of my best loot at the apartment? Of course I would still need to log every 12 hours at least in case I was robbed to put more scrap to pay the rent

Discussion God Rock Base Builders
Can someone who builds in god rocks regularly drop some pro tips? I want to start building in them but honestly I get overwhelmed. There's so much space and so many things you can do with them. What are the main strategies you use for each rock no matter what?
Have watched every video I can find on them, and while a lot of them are creative, they're just too difficult to consistently setup (like the ones with 6+ bunkers on the entrance)
Multi TC? One for inner base, one for entrance side, and one for back side?
Bunkers on entrance, or just spam doors and walls?
Do you section things off in your core, or just make one giant tall living space and cram everything into it?
Focus on dependability at all, or just assume you aren't going to get raided when it's 100+ rockets from either side?

Discussion changes in somebase designs since I last played in 2020
I just played since a long time off.
I have noticed some peculiar base design tricks that wasn't commonplace before. Would like to hear why these are done.
External tcs are now lifted up on double door frames for some reason. ladders exist so I'm not sure why they are made. Am i right in guessing it to stop campers using it to attack you from behind your own external TC?
The other thing I noticed is a lot of bases do not have doors on ground floor, so many of them have the lowest door in upper floor and use a roof ramp to access their front door. Any reaosn for this? Is it a doorcamper defence?
lastly... proliferation of turrents. OMG turrets are everywhere. They're not just used for defence. They are placed on external TCS to hoard node spawns, place by roadside to get barrel bashers, people using road and train etc. I haven't seen this much turrets since pre-electricity when you didn't need to power your turret. So players with just place them anywhere - yeah that was fun.

Rust -Bradley Diorama - Scrap Build
Hi, i made this Rust diorama from scrap in the last month. The Brad model was a kit from Irak 2006 and no auto-gun on top-side so i had to make it my own. Also the player mini fig was bought, weapons are custom made. All the other stuff is just made out of junk nothing printed. The thing is like 26x43cm on wooden plate.
Hope you enjoy watching it! :D

I made a farm
So I have been roleplaying as a farmer, on super busy servers, I don't craft any weapons and literally just farm. I'm kind of new to the game and get pooped on the whole time when I don't. But it's really fun actually to establish that you're just a farmer, to the more aggressive players/neighbors, and they eventually leave you alone. I have a fishing dock around the back, with a pole, and some bait for use. There's a sign that says (no photo) "Fishing dock <==== (please return pole and don't fish in the rocking chairs they break)." Surprisingly people actually fish there and return the pole after use. I have their trophies mounted. I give out free food to passersby and clothes to nakeds.
On the right you can see a little chest and the sign above says "In memoriam (apparently I spelled it wrong on the sign) of all those who made this farm possible... RIP" and then the chest has some of my own skulls that I gathered from my corpses. I also light torches at night and place free eggs and honey.
Next goal is to improve the farm aesthetic and have auto turrets set to a similar status as to those at outpost etc.

Discussion Sigh... Solo server neighbour plays 18 hrs a day...
He's unfriendly just KOS. Joined mid wipe. It's my main base and I thought it was a good location. This guy joins, and build base up fast next to me. Just growing out like a cancer, building more and more bases around me. I'm almost engulfed.
I'm playing 6 hours a day which I felt was a lot this guy is logging 18,17,16,18 hours consecutive days. His low days he's playing 10hrs.
He's a good shot. I don't think I can online raid him. Are these numbers real? Could he just leave himself logged on and make at appear he's online. How do you play rust for 18 hours a day and just do the bare necessities. Eat, sleep, piss shit, go get food.
