But to this day, when I think of the genre, I think of Rust. Waking up naked on a beach and hitting trees with a rock is the purest distillation of the format, and it remains as strangely compelling as ever. As it passes its eleven-year anniversary, Rust is now the biggest it's ever been on Steam, and executive producer Alistair McFarlane thanks players for the record. Read the rest of the story...

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: World Update 2.0 This HUGE update completely changed the world and added many new unique points of interest around the world Road Renegades Added new forms of transport, bicycles and motorbikes Bags To Riches Finally added backpacks allowing players to carry more items and added the metal detector item Waves Of Change Updated the cargoship and helicopter events, additionally overhauled the Harbors Lighting The Way Allows players to see and navigate at night, we add a small illumination area around the player Seismic Shift Added a new item which will send notifications to your phone if an explosion is detected Quality Of Life Over 300 QOL changes from saving codelocks to floating items New Weapons Added 5 new weapons, the minigun, military flame thrower, SKS, High Calibre Revolver, Handmade SMG Alongside a metric ton of improvements and bug fixes. Rust continues to be a labour of love from all of us at Facepunch, and we couldn't have done it without your passion and feedback. Thank you for your continued support, be it playing the game, telling friends, and engaging and communicating with us. We've very much enjoyed everything we've worked on for the game this year. LOOKING FORWARD What’s in store for 2025? Consistency! Continued guaranteed monthly updates on the first Thursday of every month, alongside regular fixes, quality-of-life enhancements, improvements, and exciting holiday events. Next Month On February 6th, we'll release the Primitive update. The update will be one of the most impactful updates to date in changing the dynamics of early-game raiding and combat by introducing siege vehicles, primitive weapons, shields, and a dedicated game mode. https://files.facepunch.com/Alistair/119/12/2024/7n79/rust_primupdate_teaser_swordight_01.jpg The Primitive update represents a time in Rust where the already scarce technology and the usual homemade armaments and ammunition have been depleted from Rust's current setting, forcing survivors to fashion crude weapons with less sophisticated methods of attack and defence. The Siege Tower can be used to climb over exterior walls while players remain in cover. And it can be pushed or horse-drawn and has several floors, with extendable drawbridges that double up as shutters. https://files.facepunch.com/ashcoook/1b1911b1/rust_pri...In survival game Rust, Santa Claus doesn't care if you've been good or bad or really, really bad, he still has gifts for youDec 17, 2024 - PC GamerIt's almost Christmas, which means Santa is coming to distribute presents to all the good little children—and, somewhat weirdly, put coal in the stockings of kids who have been "bad."

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! https://files.facepunch.com/ashcoook/1b1311b1/rust_xmas2024_snowball_01%20%281%29.jpg 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. https://files.facepunch.com/ashcoook/1b1311b1/xmas2020_santasleigh.jpg This year, you'll still be able to find Santa hats and reindeer antlers, both of which can be worn and provide a decent amount of protection. And the lickable candy cane club is back! As well as two types of stockings. If you hang a stocking inside your base when the jingle bells ring, the stocking will fill up with loot whether you've been good or not - no coal here! The larger stocking has a higher chance for better items and both last around 5-10 refills. https://files.facepunch.com/ashcoook/1b1311b1/rust_xmas_tree_01.jpg The advent calendar also returns and is a craftable deployable, available to everyone during the Christmas event. Once placed, you can claim an in-game surprise once every in-real-life day from the 16th of December. https://files.facepunch.com/ashcoook/1b1311b1/xmas_adventcalendar.jpg The Christmas event ends on January 2nd @ 19:00GMT / 14:00EST Make it a December to remember!

QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES Peacekeeper Turret Hostile Indicator A turret icon now appears next to the usual hostile indicator when you are hostile and near a peace keeper auto turret. Workcart Storage A small box has been added to all Workcarts so you can store that extra loot. Waterpump Depth Change Waterpumps now work with a smaller depth of water, perfect for the new rivers. Propane Tank Stack Size Propane tanks can now stack up to 20. Dropbox Input Increase Increased to 4 input slots. Junkpile Despawn Junkpiles will now be eligible to despawn after they are partially looted. Fridge Storage Fridge storage increased to 48 slots Homing Missiles Homing missiles have been added to Bradley and attack helicopter loot crates WOLF PACKS BALANCING We spent this month bug fixing and improving the counter-plays to the wolves, as we want them to feel challenging but not unfair. The problems Using fire against wolf sometimes felt less impactful than expected, especially when wanting to avoid the fight. Even though wolves wouldn't attack as long as you kept distance and a lit torch, they would follow for a very long time. This was especially aggravating when driving wolves away from your corpse to get back your loot, but then having them still follow you and potentially cause a death spiral. Furthermore, when jumping on an elevated position to escape the wolf, it would ignore the lit torch and rush to jump up. The wolf could do very fast huge jumps sometimes up to your base's roof. The jump motion also looked weightless and not really believable. Another problem was packs of 4+ wolves. They didn't appear all the ti...ARMED AND ANIMATEDNov 7, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsT1 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. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241107/rust_t1smg_inspect_01.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241107/rust_t1smg_workbench_01.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241107/rust_t1smg_workbench_02.jpg 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 with solid range and stopping power. The SKS delivers balanced performance with a kick that seasoned survivors will appreciate. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240430/SKS_hero_01.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240430/SKS_hero_03.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240430/SKS_hero_04.jpg IMPROVED WOLF AI Hello I'm Maverick! I recently joined Facepunch to work full-time on the AI and it's been a blast so far. This month we're releasing the first step of a major AI overhaul. We're starting small by just updating the wolf, but long-term the goal is to update scientists and all other animals. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241106/rust_november_wolves_03.jpg The why The current wolf feels a bit like a landmine: if you're walking around and you didn't see it or hear its footsteps, you die. That issue is of course amplified in the pitch black night. Since wolves runs faster than players, once spotted your only options are to try to kill it before it kills you, or jump out of reach if possible. Since the wolf charges in a straight line, you don't really have to aim and if you have a nailgun or better it's just a matter of unloading the magazine as fast as you can. Assuming you spotted the wolf before it spotted you, hunting it was not really engaging. When shot from a distance wolves don't charge and just flee very far away, often forcing you to engage in a long hike to get its loot. The result of this is that the wolf was either frustratingly hard to handle, or trivial, with no in between. This motivated us to reshape the wolf into something that would pose a challenge that feels fair, and can be tackled in multiple ways. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241106/rust_november_wolves_01.jpg The how I could write an exhaustive list of all the new behaviors, but I think it'll be way more fun for you to experiment and I'm confident the community will find even the cool hidden ones. Forget everything you know about the old wolves and just try out stuff that seems like it should work! QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES IO Arrows New arrows that show input/outputs ...HALLOWEEN 2024Oct 28, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsHAPPY HALLOWEEN! The yearly Halloween event is now enabled! https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20201023/halloween_ghostsheets.jpg Once roughly every two in-game days, the Candy Hunt event will begin. You'll have 3 minutes to collect as much candy as you can, then top 3 players are given special loot bags as a reward. These candies and loot bags can be opened for various types of loot, ranging from scrap, all the way up to an M249! If you don't make the podium, that's okay. The candies you collect can be upgraded for better loot! This year's Halloween event will run until November 7th. HERE BE MONSTERS Wondering what to do with all those body parts you've collected? Build your own monster! To start putting together your morbid creation, first, you must slay the scarecrows and mummies that roam the lands. Once you've collected a head, torso, and legs, craft yourself a Frankenstein's table and place the body parts within it. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20211026/monstertable_wakeup.jpg Awaken your new pet monster and control it by pressing "P". The monster will follow your orders without question. It'll follow you around the map, defend you if attacked and help slay foes you wish to attack. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20211026/frankenstein_lab_close.jpg If you're having trouble accessing the pet menu or already have a key bound to "P" then use the following console command: bind X +pets or open the in-game controls menu. THE RIFTS OPEN Cultists are said to have been opening portals across the island, while others believe it's a Cobalt experiment code-named R.U.I.N gone horribly wrong. Not much is known about these portals - what they do or where they go, but only a few brave souls have entered through and made it back alive. https://files.facepunch.com/Errn/1b2811b1/dungeonportal_01.jpg Do you dare to enter the rift? Server owners can adjust the portal count using the halloweendungeon.population convar. CURSED ARTICLES This year, we've added three Halloween-themed items - one purchasable, and two free.

The new cliffs come in two types, tall coastal cliffs placed close to the ocean and sloped inland cliffs covering hills and mountains. A lot of effort was made into making them not only look realistic, but also easy to traverse. You can run up the inland cliffs with ease, while the coastal cliffs can be scaled by jumping on the rocky ledges and protrusions. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241002/rust_worldUpdate_cliffs02_03.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241002/rust_worldUpdate_cliffs02_02.jpg In addition we have added many new coastal rocks close to the shore to further spice up the world. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241002/rust_worldUpdate_cliffs02_11_alt1.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240905/rust_worldupdate_preview_18.jpg REVAMPED ROCK FORMATIONS We have completely revamped all large rock formations in the game and decided to bring back some of the old fan favorites. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241002/rust_worldUpdate_rocks02_10.jpg Formations such as the god rock, anvil rock and arch rock all return to the game. Completely new rock formations have been added and some of them even spawn off shore allowing for more base building possibilities than ever before. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241002/rust_worldUpdate_rocks_02.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20241002/rust_worldUpdate_rocks_08.jpg UNIQUE ENVIRONMENTS In Rust, you will now find several different canyons, lakes, and oasis of various sizes in each procedurally generated map. Canyons, Lakes, and Oases – each offering a fresh way to play with their own pros and cons. Canyons provide narrow pathways for ambushes but can be risky to navigate. Lakes create opportunities for resource gathering and farming but leave you vulnerable in open water. Oases are lush safe havens with valuable resources but will become hotspots for fierce competition. Canyons These towering landscapes offer fresh opportunities for ambushes and base building. While the narrow pathways and steep drops make for thrilling combat and stra...TIME TO KILLSep 5, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsDIGITAL CLOCK Meet the Digital Clock, a new craftable item, a simple but powerful addition to your base's electrical setup. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240823/digital_clock_02.jpg When powered, it displays the current server time Consumes 1 power Available at the Tier 2 Workbench Craftable for 100 Metal Fragments The clock also allows you to set up alarms. When an alarm goes off, the power will pass through, allowing you to trigger any sort of circuit inside your base at specific times. Whether you want to automate your farms, activate traps, or control lighting systems, you can set up to five alarms simultaneously. GCO WEAPON ATTACHMENT A powerful new cutting-edge experimental weapon attachment for those who crave more damage and speed in their shots. The Gas Compression Overdrive attachment boosts projectile damage and velocity, allowing you to hit harder. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240905/rust_202409_ttk_heroimage.jpg However, this extra power comes with trade-offs, a slower fire rate and increased recoil. If you can handle the extra kick, this attachment is maybe for you. The GCO attachment works on the following weapons: Thompson, SAR, SAP, M92, M39 and the Custom SMG. WALLPAPERS This month, we're adding wallpapers, a new way to decorate your base's interior. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240828/rust_wallpaper_placement_01.jpg Wallpapers can only be applied to the interior side of your walls. Purely visual, they don't provide any additional protection, are easy to remove and won't interfere with the deployment of any other items. Default blueprint Crafting cost: 10 cloth for 2 pieces of wallpaper Includes 'Vintage' default skin in 4 colours - blue, red, green and yellow https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240903/rust_wallpaper_defaultskins_02.jpg Just like other deployable items, wallpapers can be skinned during crafting, in a repair bench or after being deployed using the spray can. Wallpaper Starter Pack In addition to the 4 wallpapers skins unlocked by default, you can purchase the Wallpaper Starter Pack which features 22 extra wallpaper skins for styling your base. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240903/rust_wallpaper_starterpack_collection.jpg Skins included in the wallpaper starter pack, as pictured above: Clouds Yellow Stripe Blue Diamond Fleur (3 variants) Retro (3 variants) Subway (2 variants) Geometric (2 variants) Polka Dots (3 variants) Wainscotting (3 variants) Venetian Plaster (3 variants) https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240903/rust_wallpaper_subway_01.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240903/rust_wallpaper_gallery_11.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240903/rust_wallpaper_gallery_02.jpg https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240903/rust_wallpaper_gallery_06.jpg The Wallpaper Starter Pack is available for purchase in-game or through the Steam's item store.

You can deploy it anywhere from your base to inside monuments. Use it strategically to cover access points and defend your positions. REPLICATED BUSH SOUNDS This month, we are changing how the classic bush rustle sounds work. Bush sounds will now be audible to players around you. Just like with footsteps, you now need to take care of when you make noise in bushes. Going slower through a bush makes a quieter sound than when running through it. https://files.facepunch.com/paddy/20240731/bush_sounds_01.jpg This change will also cause the rustles made in hot air balloon tarps to be audible to players nearby, and operates in the same way as the bushes. UNDERWATER ITEMS https://files.facepunch.com/Errn/1b3011b1/chrome_6klbgq2xDw.png Dropped items that end up in bodies of water will now sink more realistically instead of just dropping like they are still falling through air. As well as slowing down and getting shifted around by currents they will also emit some bubbles as they move and when they hit the ocean floor. This should make finding these items a little bit easier. ZIPLINE IMPROVEMENTS We’ve made several changes to the powerline zipline system this month to make it a bit more pleasant to use. Ziplines will now pick the furthest possible destination instead of the closest We’ve increased the maximum length a zipline can run from 150m to 185m Ziplines can now terminate at a higher point on the powerline structure and will pick these higher destinations when possible, reducing the amount of climbing required to continue the zipline. You can no longer get dismounted by trees when on a zipline. We already had several systems in place to prevent trees spawning in zipline paths, but it still happened very rarely. These changes should result in longer, higher ziplines that are safer to use. NPC VENDOR PRICE CHANGES After looking over the data from last months wipe, it was clear that the dynamic vendor pricing system wasn’t operating as well as it could have. It tended to drop to 50% off all items relatively quickly in the wipe. We’ve made a couple of changes this month: Price changes now operate in real time rather than based on in-game time. This should be more understandable and will work correctly on servers that manipulate in-game time. Price changes now take place every 5 real time hours. Last month the prices changed every 15 minutes in real time by default, so this will make the prices change much more slowly. As usual we’ll keep an eye on this and make changes going forwards.

Facepunch officially turned 15 not too long ago and we wanted to celebrate the occasion by making all of our games 50% off - including Rust and all Rust DLCs! You can get your discounts on all Facepunch games through the Steam store. Rewind to 2009, when Garry, released Garry's Mod: a sandbox game with no rules, from a mod, to officially listing it on Steam. No objectives, just pure, unadulterated freedom. Want to create a giant robot out of bathtubs? Go for it. Fancy launching a thousand explosive barrels into the sky? Why not! Garry's Mod was, and still is, the ultimate playground for gamers with a wild imagination. Fast forward to 2013, and we began work on Rust. This isn’t just any survival game; it’s a brutal, post-apocalyptic showdown where you start with nothing but a rock and a dream. Gathering resources, building shelters, forging alliances—or betraying them—Rust has taken survival gaming to a whole new level. It's a place where the only rule is: trust no one, but have fun trying. And now, in 2024, we're working on our biggest update for Rust yet, with more Twitch events planned, and even more cool things to come to the game for all types of players. There has never been a better time to play Rust. LOOTROOM 3D PRINTS https://files.facepunch.com/ashcook/1b1511b1/rust_x_lootroom_announcement-compressed.jpg It's Official - You Can Now Get Licensed 3D Printed Rust Items! After years of watching from the side lines, we're proud to officially announce that we've partnered with Lootroom! Lootroom are now our partner for fully licensed 3D printed guns and more. So we're now working closer with them, providing this lovely and dedicated team with in-game assets to ensure that they continue to deliver high quality products to Rust fans. Here's Lootroom's story: "It's mid-2018 and during an exciting Rust weekend with good friends, we kept joking about the fact that furnaces in Rust always have to be running. This gave rise to the desire to have a small real Rust furnace on the desk - as a reminder of this great wipe. It didn't take long and it became clear: a 3D printer was needed! The test phase went well and we were so impressed with the result that we published the furnace on various platforms and received a lot of positive feedback. When the first purchase requests came in, we knew that the whole thing had potential and that there were many Rust enthusiasts around the world who shared our interest in IRL loot. After some preparation, a first small online store was created and the perfect name with the necessary domains was also found - Lootroom. Initially, our store only consisted of the furnace in various sizes, followed by the Eoka and the P2. But after countless requests, the Rust AK default was added in May 2020 after a slight delay due to Covid-19 - a real monster compared to the smaller products we had previously offe...Rust Early Access review: one year onJul 9, 2024 - PCGamesNRust - Facepunch Studios' multiplayer survival sandbox - has changed significantly in the year it's been on Steam Early Access. After several months of incredible sales and gradually increasing content, Facepunch did the unthinkable: they scrapped everything. Deciding the code base for Rust was unworkable, the studio rebuilt the entire game from scratch in a new engine. New Rust looks and feels both different and familiar: like returning to your dreary university city after it's had a multi-million government investment. I don't like it.
