Most of my first deaths in Rust Console Edition were from bears, then they became less of a threat.

Hopefully that loot will last long enough to fuel a campfire or build a bed and weapon to allow for deeper ventures into the world. You will come across a massive monument hoping that there is valuable loot inside not blocked by a locked door. Voice chat is proximity based so if a player isn’t muted, you’re going to hear them for better or worse. The bear killed me soon after because I stood at the edge of a cliff and wanted to look at the scenery and peruse the controls.įrequently, however, you will die at the hands of someone else without them blinking an eye. Being fairly fresh on the game we both kept a small distance from each other as I bashed a tree with a rock to get wood. Quite funny considering I just died and literally had nothing to myself. My first fellow player I encountered typed out “don’t shoot” when we were close. Other players online, not bears or radiation or the elements, are the true obstacle in Rust. Players who manage to maintain a consistent foothold in Rust during the course of a server must be some incredible, persistent, sleepless human beings. Every few minutes that server granted every player inside of it an item or two, with other servers following the same less traditional logic, just to keep things interesting. I felt a calm, knowing I would come back and no one would be too far ahead of me in terms of crafting and exploration. I experienced my first server wipe a couple days into playing Rust Console Edition, right when the servers were being shut down for the early preview period.

It’s a fascinating take on the genre and a player’s sense of progression. Interestingly, Rust wipes its servers frequently. Yet it’s also about overcoming the odds, meeting new players, killing those other players, starting impromptu communities, surviving, and having your progress completely wiped away. The game can be unrelenting and mean, it’s kind of the point. Rust is often about those lows, just as much as the highs. Survival games are a mosaic of these agonizing, unimpressive defeats that usually culminate in frustration or that empty feeling of making no headway. I tried moving past the two bears from a distance but they froze in place when I got close and after a few seconds attacked. I tried using a boat docked nearby but it was out of gas. Instead I wanted to travel to what looked like a lighthouse on the other side of the beach. In my underwear I skirted around the edge of the beach trying to bounce up some rocks to higher ground. In fact, I think I saw the bear walking away from my corpse to join another bear. I spawned at what looked like the same beach, a short distance from my assailant. Sure, I’d probably be terrible at them but was always willing to experience the zeitgeist.Īnd so there I was, mauled by a bear.

As a younger person with an under-powered PC, I watched the burgeoning survival genre with titles like DayZ and Rust, wondering why no one thought to expand the audience.

Rust was released on PC nearly eight years ago, remaining on one of those many “why did it take so long to port?” lists. “Seems about right,” I thought to myself. My two minutes into Rust Console Edition I was killed by a bear.
