Vegetation is scarce, but one can find the odd cactus, shrub or mushroom lying around. The parts of the Desert bordering the ocean are often spawning points for players. Deserts are usually quite big and expansive, animal spawns here are slightly higher than that of Grassland, and the Desert is a common place to find barrels and roads. The desert zone (also known as “Arid” Biome) is a warmer, hotter part of the world usually found in the south side of the map. There’s a good chance that this will be the area you are most likely to come across your main food sources including everything from deer to bears, to horses, chickens and beyond. Animal spawns are increased here, and sometimes one can find a river or road crossing through it. Like the Grassland Plains but with loads of, well, hills, slightly uneven terrain and little vegetation (aside from grass).Ī biome where there tends to be a fairly dense quantity of trees. Being fairly flat, this biome is ideal for building bases and structures. This area is often a spawning area for mineable rocks and barrels (which are great for finding materials in) There is also a chance that you will encounter animals here. Players won’t have to worry too much regarding the temperature as it’s not too hot that you’ll struggle with hydration or too cold that you’ll need to worry about taking cold damage. The temperate zone is split into sub sections as well.Ī huge spacious biome that is a commonly seen environment. Once you are able to get out and start exploring you with find that Rust has 3 distinct biomes Temperate, Desert and Snow. Once you have a solid foundation to build upon, you can start getting more adventurous with the crafting, hunting animals and making your character more suited for the unforgiving Rust experience. Rust also has safe zones that don’t allow any hostile actions so setting up some form of base in those areas gives you some form of safety net. Items such as storage boxes and locks allow you to store your most valuable items, safe in the knowledge that they’ll still be there if you decide to go and grab a cuppa. Broken and battered I decided that I might need to rethink how I approached Rust. My confidence bolstered from my recent exploits, I charged in head first… only to be wiped out after 2 massive swipes of its paws.įortunately this time, I had a sleeping bag set up so I managed to spawn in the comfort of my own house. What it decided to throw at me was one hell of an angry grizzly bear (we all know where this is going). As the final blow hit I realised that I had become the thing that had made me hate the first hour or so of this game, and that right there is the beauty of Rust: that for all the plans you might try and make regarding crafting and making encampments, it boils down to the brutal nature of killing to survive.įresh from my herculean effort to take down the newbie I was on top of the world, untouchable and ready to conquer anything that Rust had to throw at me. After 10 or so missed arrows (Oliver Queen I am not) I decided to go with the spear. This one hit hard though, my poor 4×4 house had been destroyed and all my worldly possessions had been stolen away.īack to the grind (and this game has plenty of that), I got my house back up again, managed to get myself a new outfit, got some spears and a bow with some arrows, determined to go all John Wick on anyone who dared to cross me.įinally the opportunity came a newbie, fresh off the beach with nothing but a rock to defend himself. The first hour of deaths weren’t so bad, I didn’t have anything to lose so would just jump back in.
Eventually I managed to start finding my feet and grabbing some materials of my own and finally I had a place I could call home… Or at least I did until I had my house robbed and my head smashed in with a rock (anyone else starting to see a pattern?). This was a rinse and repeat experience for about the first hour or so. Jumping into the game for the first time I think I managed to make it about 100 yards off the starting beach before being swarmed by a group of players with pointy sticks. Everything is out to get you whether that be other players, wild animals, radiation, or even just the environment. The only object of Rust is to survive – and good luck with that. Rust: Console Edition is a hard core survival game from Facepunch Studios and Double Eleven.
