Thanks, we currently have a fix building for this and will be deploying soon.

Rust DLC packs - why isn’t every item included within the pack not showcased?

Comment

It's a limitation on us from Steam what we can display on the Steam store. The in-game store and website is much more fleshed out.

PRIMITIVE GAMEMODE
The early game of Rust can be the most exciting, unfortunately players rush to fully automatic rifles as fast as possible to get an edge over their enemies. What if the early game could last forever....?

The primitive mode brings us to a distant future where the knowledge of high tech items have been lost, leaving the inhabitants of the island only able to make basic items.



The following changes apply to the primitive game mode.

Allowed Weapons
  • Melee
  • Bow, Compound Bow, Crossbow, Mini Crossbow
  • Speargun
  • Eoka
  • Beancan Grenade, Molotov
  • Flashlight Attachment
  • S...

LUNAR NEW YEAR
Happy Lunar New Year to everyone! This year, we celebrate the Year of the Snake. In Chinese culture, the snake symbolises wisdom, intuition, and transformation—qualities that everyone playing can appreciate!

To help you embrace the Lunar New Year spirit, we've stocked the Steam item store with a mix of new and returning Lunar New Year-themed items.





SNAKE MASK
Celebrate the Year of the Snake with Rust’s new Snake Mask! Inspired by the serpent’s elegance and wisdom in Chinese mythology, this intricately designed mask features vibrant scales and symbolizes transformation and resilience.

11 YEARS
Servers are now wiped and Santa is packing up and clearing out the bodies, but we hope you enjoyed the Holiday Season. We're getting back to work after a couple of weeks off, which is why this blog is lighter than usual, but we're looking forward to the journey ahead in 2025!



At the end of last year, we celebrated Rust's 11th anniversary, marking an incredible journey. The game continues to experience year-over-year growth, which is quite remarkable for being 11 years old. Rust is now bigger than ever!

This year, we saw:
  • Over 325 million game sessions
  • Over 40 million hours played
  • Over 5.5 million unique players

Here's a recap of some of the major updates we did last year:

SEASON'S BEATINGS

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
From everyone at Facepunch, we'd like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The Christmas Event is once again live!



If you're new to the island, here's what you can expect:

As you play, you will start to hear the distinct sound of jingle bells. As soon as you do, leave the warm comfort of your base and start looking for your gifts!
  • Two gifts are spawned per player, in a radius of about 40m from you.
  • Run up and bash open your present to receive your Christmas gift.
  • They come in three sizes: small, medium, and large. But if you have enough small presents stashed, you can 'trade up' to a medium or large gift.
  • The contents of each present varies, but you'll find a mix of resources, weapons, and Christmas candy.

RUST'S 11TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS
We can't believe it either.

It feels like just yesterday that we were celebrating 10 years of Rust, getting emotional over our recap video, but it is true - Rust turns 11 years old on Wednesday the 11th of December!

It's been another incredible year for Rust, with record player numbers, Twitch events, and monthly content updates bringing some of the most significant changes to the world of Rust in the past 11 years.



Here are just some of the key gameplay additions we've delivered as we look back on 2024:

Imagine getting paid like $1 million+ to stream a game and you just don't

Comment

Honest question - how much is it really? Not sure why you guys wouldn't publicly say how much you're paying people to play.

We've never paid anyone to play Rust. We purely facilitate drops for community-run events, we work closely with the organisers, and everyone who receives a drop has prior agreed to Stream Rust, work with community skin makers, approve their skins. We pay the server development fees incurred, which are paid out to community developers.

Nah, it was $2.5million.

[BUG] Train tunnels are still killing sleepers inside their bases if their base is over the rail on low ground when the tunnels are generated at a height of -70 at the rails.
The deeper tunnels (-80 and -90) do not have this issue.

In the attached video link you can see I'm on my test server over a train tunnel, I use the f1 sleep command followed by debug.puzzlereset to force reset all puzzles including the train tunnels and it results in my player committing suicide.

Thank you, we'll take a look.

T1 HANDMADE SMG
This month we're adding new weapons, firstly filling a gap in the weapon lineup, the Handmade SMG is unlockable near the end of the T1 tech tree.





While it lacks accuracy and raw damage, it compensates for this with sheer volume, letting players unleash a hail of bullets. Skilled survivors can use it to stay competitive by timing their attacks and positioning themselves carefully, allowing for surprise bursts against better-equipped foes.



SKS
Unlockable at the start of the T3 tech tree, the SKS bridges the gap between the SAR and the M39. This mid-tier powerhouse combines punchy damage with accuracy, making it a reliable pick for players who want a no-nonsense rifle wi... Read more
