The creators of the popular survival game Rust have released a new development diary and talked about their desire to revise the usual meta. They intend to return players to the open world, where a real struggle should unfold.
Facepunch Studios has introduced an update for Rust, in which they revised the progression system: "our goal is to break old habits." Puzzles have been added to a number of monuments.
The authors of Rust have updated locations where there was previously little or no loot and made them more relevant so that "loot raids become fresher, at least for a while."
The level 1 workbench remains unchanged, but blueprint fragments are now required to create level 2 and 3 items. They can be found in monuments.
A new item, the "spike trap", has appeared, which slows down and injures players if they step on it.
