Rust is yet another survival MMO to join the Steam Early Access program amidst competition from the likes of DayZ, Nether and 7 Days to Die, but how does it stand up? I originally found myself drawn to the survival genre as a break from the typical MMORPG formula but I quickly found myself growing tired of the loot - kill - die - repeat mechanic that plagues practically every survival genre available today. It was only through friends hassling me on a daily basis did I decide to purchase Rust but I've yet to regret it.
Rust's naval update has added boat building to the survival sandbox, allowing players to sail to a dangerous deep sea.
And festive events, exclusive skins and plenty of true Rust chaos await throughout December.
Long distance gun sounds, team bag labels, player processing optimizations, Exhibitor DLC Item Pack, & more!
