Video Softcore BUG: Raiding sometimes gives 100% loot of the box instead of 50%. Why?

12 Upvotes

FOR CONTEXT: This is softcore, when you raid and destroy a box, it should give you 50% of the loot.

I don't know why it happened, I reported it to facepunch (ticket number 698138), hopefully they will fix it somehow. I don't know how to reproduce this.

Suggestion Allowing players to nail notes to surfaces

14 Upvotes

I like the idea of this and want to hear from people who play the game more than me (basically none). This would be just adding a new way to use notes by placing them on a surface. They do not decay. You would have to make sure it can't block buildings and there is a radius around them where you can't place another note to prevent griefing.

I can just picture a note being left on someone's door with a threat. A final note on a TC explaining the grievances of a team that left their base to decay. Warnings of a trap base down the road. A clan marking their territory by placing notes on raided bases like a calling card. And of course weird ass notes that people have left scattered around their base to mess with their teammates.

What do you think?

Question Wtf did they do to the graphics?

2 Upvotes

This is max gfx on a 5080, incidentally changing the gfx settings changes nothing visually or fps wise. Sometimes quitting and reloading game works but most of the time my game just looks like this now

The hit detection seems weird right now. Shit I think will hit doesn’t and hits when I know it shouldn’t have hit

Discussion Mushroom diversity

7 Upvotes

I think we should see more diversity in mushrooms.

Like on trees Reishi could spawn on trees in snow rather than bee hives which don’t spawn on snow trees afaik Stumps might have a chance to harvest honey mushrooms when picked. This would give a way to gather shrooms in snow or desert biome. Forest and jungle would be spawn any shroom including the traditional red ones.

Though adding a food source to snow does make it less treachorous so sort of mixed on that.

But mushrooms are isolated to two biomes but required for like what, half of food recipes?

Growing them might not make sense unless it involved the composter somehow.

Video Bug in Softcore 1 my base was raided and griefed (I had a keylock on TC). How is that possible?

22 Upvotes
  1. It was raided before and TC was broken and I was able to repair it with a hammer. After repair it still had a keylock, so it was fully secure.

  2. Couple days later I was raided again and now they managed to put their own TC and grief my base. How is that possible? Can anyone explain? This is a bug.

Discussion Help !, experiencing huge fps loss and long freezes

0 Upvotes

So recently since the new force, after playing normaly for some time my game will suddently drop to 1or 4 fps, my scripts will start taking very long 4000ms, which i think cause my gpu and cpu to stop working (gpu usage drop from 90% to 1%, same for cpu) and may be the cause of the drop of fps during the bug the usage of my components will rize when the scripts times become normal for 1 frame, so its not a constant freeze.

So my question is how can i fix this.

also when i restart the game, the bug will still be on and when restart my pc the bug will come maybe after 5 min. The bug takes longer to appear when i dont use my pc for some time. Temps are fine so prob not that. I can use my pc fine outside of rust so only a rust problem.

i have a gtx 1650, a ryzen 3600x, 32gb of ddr4

I have played this wipe solo for 6 hours, i have collected this amount of scrap without recycling (plus stuff researched) yet i only have 1 blueprint fragments. This can’t go on.

Edit:
I just did a labs run at almost 2 in the morning and there’s 3 guys holding it with pump still, i have EVERYTHING expect for frags.

Discussion Rust crashing

1 Upvotes

The other night I was playing rust and it worked just fine. 2 nights later I go to load into a server and it crashes everytime now when it reaches “cleaning up”. Pops up a unity error message but can’t quite see what it says because it pops up and goes away so quick along with the game closing out with it. I have checked the integrity of the files on steam. Reinstalled. Factory reset pc even. Made sure drivers were up to date and all. Yet it still does the same thing when trying to join any server.

Discussion Hit the brakes.

53 Upvotes

FP should hit the brakes on the new stuff.

Every week I have some new gimmick to learn. A guy that played rust 2 months ago and logs in again has no idea wtf is going on. We all love new content but this is a mess.

Apartment complex is truly a waste of space in every map and if FP nuked that monument no one would notice. Now we have to fix parts of the map for some reason? I can't believe it's possible to track how these changes affect the game when you keep changing it every week/month, it's not possible and the game is a huge mess right now.

BP frags still being around is wild and it's getting disrespectful for a big portion of the player base. The entire "bp frag for sulfur" meta is boring AF.

I don't know if there's less people playing or more people playing, these changes feel sloppy and rushed.

I will still be playing and try new stuff but there's no way in hell I'll be fixing helipads or a lighthouse.

Question What makes you call it for a wipe?

6 Upvotes

Title: What is the reason you log off and call a wipe done. Raided early? Have a bad start to the wipe? Build in a wrong location and get surrounded by door campers? Just max out on loot so you're not having fun anymore.

Suggestion Repairing Air Wolf should provide a reward (suggestion)

Post image
73 Upvotes

While I like the idea of slowing progression, I don't like that players don't get anything for helping repair Air Wolf unless they complete the repairs. Even then, it's the opportunity to be first to buy from it. It feels like the server is relying on a zerg that can really exploit Air Wolf to do it.

My suggestion:
Helping to repair Air Wolf should provide dividends in the form of a discount on anything Air Wolf (or maybe also other shops at Bandit Camp) sells for the remainder of the wipe. The discount should scale with how much you helped repair.

The final discount amount would have to be tested and adjusted, but my first thought is there would be a total of a 66% discount pool available. So if you managed to repair half the Air Wolf, you would get a 33% discount from then on.

Ideally, I'd like to see it encourage all/more players to participate in the repair process, even if they can't afford to donate a substantial amount. So maybe there is a minimum discount of 5 or 10% (not deducted from the pool) for anyone who repairs 1% of Air Wolf, and any repairs beyond that get a relative portion of the discount pool.

This idea could be applied to the upcoming Deep Sea/Lighthouse change, giving players a discount at the Floating City.

For past 4 hours I'm visiting empty Train Yard, Water Treatment and Radtown. It's always looted.

Discussion Satellite event needs a buff

Amazing visual concept, turned out to be a flub. Loot is terrible, and the radiation is annoying. The event should not be player triggered but random on the map. To actually activate the Satellite is a major pain in the ass.

Please buff this event FP
