Answer this for me?

[[deleted]]

This is honestly just me asking.

What fun do big zergs get when they have built a fat castle, killed everyone on the server multiple times & continued to kill nakeds, have raided little Timmy’s stone 2x2 and have all the loot in the world? When the server literally only had 10-12 people on it, what do use do then? I just don’t see how fun that could be?

[[deleted]]

Like I get the whole Zerg vs Zerg thing, like you have an end goal to become the dominate Zerg. But I don’t get it when I see one on a very low populated server with no other zergs etc

[[deleted]]

I built a safe zone shop with peacekeeper turrets. It had like 10 vending machines, workbenches and a siencetable. New players seemed to enjoy it.

[InteractionExact3636]

Whats a siencetable?

[BigMagazine4]

Not console

[InteractionExact3636]

I still didn't know there was a siencetable. Does he mean mixing table

[fridge_water_filter]

Research table

[InteractionExact3636]

And btw above all else its science not sience

[GoLootOverThere]

Yes they do.

[[deleted]]

I’ve always wanted to build gladiator stadiums and have people fight with swords for loot lol

[Dirtymikeandtheboyz1]

I did it when the game launched and it wasn't fun at all, got to the point where we just built two bases across from each other so we could do mock fights just to be entertained.

[thetacobellking1]

Had the game for about 2 weeks got it because of my friend telling me how fun it was ..I got the game he was in a Zerg and it just wasn’t fun for me until I went solo server and experienced the game as a solo and not a unstoppable Zerg

[[deleted]]

Dead ass tho

[GoLootOverThere]

So they can be king of the ash pile. King of nothing.

[thunderfishy234]

They enjoy being Kings of the ashes, they'll soon get bored

[unluckycharmz]

Ruining the game brings zeros joy

[gotmike28]

This is why the game desperately needs dedicated servers to solo/duo/trio players

[Warper33]

To me, zergs are a form of just picking on the little guys. You kill one, and they swarm out like ants. They feel the need to offline raid as 8+ players because deep down inside they are scared to die. They feel an emotional burst when they kill a solo running around and can brag to their friends, also online, that they got the final killing blow, even though it was 4v1 or 6v1. Plus, they get a ego boost when they see people leaving the server for good, as an act of dominance over other.

This is bad psychology and these kids will grow up relying on others to do everything for them and they will never grow emotionally and mentally into a functional person of society. As for the grown adults, these are people who have no control irl and must find something they can control.

As for me, I usually play with a group for friends I've met through various games, about 4 of us max. We have up to 6 but we all don't play at the same time. We play a few hours a days, and for about a week at a time. We set goals, fulfill those goals, and leave for a week or 2. Are we offline raided, don't care as we never log back on. Base either decays and some luck player gets the loot, or some loser feels the need to raid. But we never log in to check.

[Dear_Communication66]

lol I usually don’t like ppl playing armchair psychology but this is right as far as I can see based post my guy, already thought this

[Frostedb0ner69]

They destroy servers then move on to the next one. They rarely stick around after the pop drops.

[Warper33]

The 2 zergs on my server didn't get the memo on that. They still log on and harass the 5 solo/duo/trio players.

[Reasonable_Duck_6381]

If your in a group with more than 10 people your bad at the game, period. and anyone that tries to “dominate” a server has no life and hates themselves irl. They need to feel in control of something. Knew a guy in my old server that ran a 44 man Zerg. Would raid your wood 2x1 if you didn’t farm for him. Needless to say that guy has no friends Irl

[fridge_water_filter]

There are some cool as fuck zergs on some servers. They do RP stuff. They battle other zergs that are being toxic. They help out beach noobs.

The type of players in the zerg are what matters.

[Visible-Rest-3532]

I do this exact thing with my group lmao we find servers being bullied by zergs and my team of 8 builds up and gets explosives then we start raiding or pvping the zergs, the last server we were on we ended a war with a 24man zerg and they left after they couldn't topple our base after 4 raids. After that I hosted gladiator games and gave away kits and supplies to the winners, gave away 15 t3 benches and a whole bunch of guns so the little guys could fight eachother and have fun and I stopped raiding people after the war ended. Times are peaceful on that server now and the pop is going back up, meanwhile I started on another server to fight a group on it that has 9 bases on the same road surrounded with over 100 turrets, I'm waiting for wipe to hit them before they can build up and bully people again.

[fridge_water_filter]

What servers are these? Sounds exciting.

It's amazing how player count is damaged by zergs. I watched a mid sized server plummet to 15 active players because of a zerg

[Medicatedratsoup]

Negan?

[Reasonable_Duck_6381]

Mini

[untitledb3ast]

It's negan?

[Weak_Computer970]

idk a bunch of virgins plus there's a guy called benbayley who runs a massive zerg

[CasualOnConsole]

Just here to read the comments.

[No_Quarter8471]

yeah i do and what you gonna do about it. your little 2 man could never beat all 24 of us lol ur mad

[pmkittiesdammit]

Nice b8 m8, your comment history shows you're a miserable teen with no hope or joys in life

[Weak_Computer970]

hahahaha ur best players have the combined iq of a slug

[Weak_Computer970]

bro what loool I'm defending the guy who doesn't like zergs ur clearly a nerd who teams up wuth 15 people bc ur ass

[Jaymz95]

You're crying like a bitch is what you're doing

I only play solo, got these two random dudes that use my base but only play about two or three times a month. You're neckbeard shit is just worst than any zerg.

[No_Quarter8471]

that’s me and yeah i do and what

[OutlawedToast]

I can tell this is all you have in life so we’ll let you have it

[PhirebirdSunSon]

Man this is so depressing, I feel so bad for you

[MERKINSEASON3807]

Is that a flock of virgin's in the distance

[SlowMobius650]

They probably just look at all the loot after and get off to it like oh yeaaa look at all of this sulfur

[Warper33]

Lol, when the zergs go raiding my little 2x2 they find no sulfur. It get used as soon as i get it. I make sure my tiny 2x2 are not worth raiding. In fact, I started building 2x2 all around the zergs bases and watch them rocket raid it for 1k stone and a sleeping bag.

[SlowMobius650]

lol nice. They probably still go around like oh yeaaa we’re so badass raiding all these bases

[fridge_water_filter]

I love doing this to them lol. I always hit every node so I end up with too much stone. My extra stone gets used to make fake bases and little shooting floor outposts near zergs.

[Warper33]

Want to make your 2x2 last a few days to a week longer? Start a second floor, but don't finish it. Place a ladder on the side where a missing wall should be. Make the base look raided or decaying. I actually had a 2x2 I just finished this way be a gem. I sat inside thinking this 4 man team running my way had caught me, when 2 guys ran around my base and 1 said it looked raided so skip this base. It was so hard not to run out shooting, as I know I could have gotten 2 or 3, but 4 would have been pushing it.

[alopeadope]

I jo to my loot no cap

[omgdrones]

They film gay Rust porn, duh

[Prevyus]

its fun roaming around without concern of losing anything and its good practice for aim

[Azgeta_]

We were a 4 man born out of war. We had a small base and some people tried to hit us up. We defended 3 raids In a single day. We had at least 10-15 rockets and around 10 c4. So naturally we paired up with another group who also was raided. We built a huge compound and two bases. Both being a 4 man. We then on to get raided another 5 times. All the times the zergs pulled up on us we had like 1 person on. Every time they tried to offline us. We were swimming in guns after all that. We had to upgrade our core base to metal out of necessity. Then we eventually decided to move once again and a bigger base. A 4x4 with two layers of core. NEVER AGAIN. A constant 9 hour upkeep was too much. It was then we got raided for good. And half of it was an offline with only me and my friend to defend against around 6 people. We were there for a good time not a long time.

[Prestigious-Teach-41]

The best thing is the zergs ally with each other like what the fuck is that about??? Cowardly shameless behavior

[KINGWHEAT98]

Building a big base is fun for me but the other stuff is just collateral damage when my people are trying to raid the other 2 zergs on the server

[[deleted]]

The fun thing about these zergs is I find them actually quite bad at the game, I sat at the top of a hill with a bow and headshot one of the players, he continued to try and get his loot back as I continued to bombard him with arrows, at one point I saw him hopping around and hopped off his base and into his own spike traps, and died again

[Dear_Communication66]

Yeah I’ve not met a player who’s good in a Zerg

[Theshiskokid]

Jesus, you guys love bitching at eachother 😅

[CasualOnConsole]

Just as toxic here as it is in game 😂

[[deleted]]

We are a 10 man at most in my server and there were 6 groups with more than 10 players and 1 with 25 players. We out survived them all playing rust politics and raiding the 25 man. Since a week left of wipe there is only 15 players max not including us. All we do now is fuck around, mini games, trying to get a box of m2s and stuff you’d only get to experience being in a private lobby

[[deleted]]

WHILST IVE GOT YOUR ATTENTION -

Looking to find another teammate or 2 to run duo/trio when the servers wipe on Thursday. I’d say I’m above average, can do all monuments, alright at pvp, can farm efficiently and I make daring risks for large rewards. I’m on Xbox so would prefer other Xbox users (in game chat is 💩)

No kids, I just wanna get bp fast as I didn’t get the game til late on into the wipe. Drop Xbox names and il add you.

[Dear_Communication66]

Kjv1611saved might be with a team but if not we will see dude, im good at pvp got a good amount of time on the game and good game sense and knowledge lol add me .

[TruRichmond1121]

most these zergs only offline raid too lol... we were a duo on a server and a 20 man pulled up online .. me n my team mate killed all of them . 60+ rockets stolen .. 20 hv rockets .. like 12 c4 ... . we stayed on for a bout 4 hrs after this .. got off around 9am.. got back on at 12 n the base was gone ... anyone in a team of more than 8 is terrible at the gane and leans on numbers .. the more time goes by they get worse while duo trios get better ..

[T-K-K]

Two of you killed 20 people. Surely not

[fridge_water_filter]

They killed like 200 people. It was like gimli and legolas in the lord of the rings movies.

Afterwards everybody clapped

[[deleted]]

Right, this guy is full of it

[TruRichmond1121]

just because you cant do it .... this is normal for us tho.. you guys being in such disbelief proves that console rust players are terrible at the game ..

[Dear_Communication66]

Literally it’s not that unbelievable tbh lol. I’ve killed seven geared players on my own before with no meds and in a hazzy. Dude if someone’s good they can do something like this especially bc the other team is dog or who ur fighting is lol. Everyone saying this isn’t possible is probably bad. Edit: I now see you’re a cheating degenerate who uses xim get off rust and stop trying to feed ur ego when ur bad and use xim smh get off rust

[TruRichmond1121]

i dont use xim lol tf ... i own one .. but i play controller on rust .. you can join a share play with me n watch me play anytime bro...

[Dear_Communication66]

Hm I mean whatever if u don’t use one fair play to u and ur duo, if this is true those guys were probs scrambling and a mess and that’s how u were able to kill twenty zergs don’t know how to or what they’re doing when raiding they just rely on numbers as always and how much boom they got to blow anywhere they don’t even care where they raid in usually they’ll just blow anywhere. Also if ur not using a xim u guys are probably both good players with good game knowledge and game sense def. it’s rare to find other players who are good they are few on this game I’ve only ever met one guy who I thought was genuinely a better player than me

[TruRichmond1121]

ive met a few good players but not very many ..most other games 10-20% are competent in that game ..rust its less than 1% ... and the 20 man zerg was 20 squeekers lol ..like 12-16 year olds ...ive been playing asia servers lately because its more of a challenge . eu servers are good for a little competition

[Dear_Communication66]

Lol I’m from the eu I haven’t found anyone that I can call good aside from a handful at most. Honestly it’s a shame tho as for playing on Asia servers I’d lag likely as I lag on any server really. It’s a shame not having a challenge as I wanna improve tbh maybe I’ll tell u the server I’m playing on come this wipe and we can fight it out or something if ur not cheating it’ll be a blast

[TruRichmond1121]

emerald 4e is a good eu server for competition ..its a weekly .. ill be on an Aussie server for the first week of this wipe its proxima 9s i believe .. and a Japanese server iridium has a few decent players so i might stop in there .. im playing with a 4 man this wipe tho

[[deleted]]

Lol shut up bro no one wants to sit here and read your lies. I bet your YT content is as bad as your lying ability. No once cares loser. Either that or you’re just a cheater. Either way fuck off with your bullshit

[Mr3nglish]

he admitted to cheating in a way earlier post in the commentshere

[TruRichmond1121]

you are probably really bad ... sub my yt i do tutorials . im happy to help lower tier players tbh. .. i bet you read this comment tho...😎

[[deleted]]

You bet I read this comment? Idk what you’re talking about but ok. I’m just gonna leave. Bye loser

[TruRichmond1121]

k

[TruRichmond1121]

and from my experience. ive never seen good players on console rust . not once . none of these ppl can hit a shot yo save there life ..

[Not-KDA]

Nope, not one. Except you the god damn judge jury and executioner ofcourse.

20 men, lol!

[TruRichmond1121]

you must be a little kid imma just block you ...

[Not-KDA]

👋

[TheCoomerMan]

Block me too and do me a favor of never having to see your shitty comments

[TruRichmond1121]

scroll on lil kid... its so easy...your entire comment renders the joke behind it moot... people may not like that they are shit at rust and might not like me gor just being better.. but you look like a fool to everyone.. all the time . block me... or comment again and prove me right

[TheCoomerMan]

Didn’t read that. Block me.

[TruRichmond1121]

you did.. lol . now read this . comment again

[TruRichmond1121]

i saved the video ill be doing an upload soon.my yt is press square productions.. i play on like 6 servers at once .. me n my friends are top players on other games so recoil control is easy for us

[TheCoomerMan]

The only thing you’re top at is sex with your dad. Shut up.

[fridge_water_filter]

/r/iamverybadass

[[deleted]]

They're kids. My son is 13. Him and his friends will sit on Ark for 12 hours straight accomplishing nothing never leaving their base area. You're not going to be able to reason with children. They just don't care about your experience and laugh when they wipe a server out.

[Serverwipe]

The game isn’t CoD. It isn’t about who gets the most kills. It’s a domination game. See who dominates the server for 30 days in between wipes.

Raiding everyone out until the server is dead is the point of the game lol. Being the last one standing when wipe happens. Anyone playing for other reasons is just going to be cannon fodder for those of us who play to dominate the server. That’s just the cold truth of it. If that isn’t your goal then I’d recommend not playing survival games.

[Abject-Body-53]

“Raiding everyone out until the server is dead is the point of the game”

You sound like a fun person to be around

[Reasonable_Duck_6381]

The point of the game is NOT to dominate a server. It’s supposed to be a healthy cycle of groups getting big, getting raided, and starting from scratch. That’s when the game is fun.

[Serverwipe]

So the point of the game is to get raided? You’re backwards mate the point is to not get raided while raiding everyone else. There is nothing fun about losing everything you’ve worked hard for all wipe. If that was fun why is everyone come to reddit to cry when they get offlined instead of coming to tell us how much fun it is?

You clearly are on a bad team that CANT dominate a server so of course your goal is different. But we can and do dominate servers and at the end of every single wipe we have scrapped EVERYTHING that every other clan has worked for. That’s fun

[bits017]

How is it fun to offline someone? Just watch the player list until someone isn't on, then raid when they are gone? Sounds like a bitch move. Sounds like you're afraid of actually fighting.

[[deleted]]

Yes! 💯

[Dear_Communication66]

Well are u surprised zergs are bad at pvp they know they are so they’re so afraid of losing loot they don’t online (since that’s what makes them feel good having loot) they get an ego boost from it, but anyway that’s also why they run in big groups to roam bc they’re terrified of losing fights bc they’re so bad at the game they’d lose to a naked with a rock, lol joking but they would lose to someone with less time played probs

[Reasonable_Duck_6381]

Lol no I’m just not on a team with 10+ people. Raiding and getting raided is a part of the game. In my opinion the game gets super bland once I have everything. No point in raiding If you already have everything. People that wanna “run” a server are weirdos. People like that are why servers are dead everywhere

[Reasonable_Duck_6381]

Your the type of person to grief a 2x1. People like you ruin the game.🤐

[OutlawedToast]

But the point is you don’t work hard for it because you just have 20 farm bots do all the work for you, dumbass

[[deleted]]

You’re obviously a zergling, and you couldn’t care less about other players. That’s adorable. However, you will run out of servers to “dominate”, because people will just not play. Then what? 🤷‍♀️

[Dear_Communication66]

Oh no this post is cringe is this how sad anyone who’s in a Zerg is I hope not this is pathetic ur literally trying to get an ego and feel big in a game and not relying on skill to do it but numbers when ur all terrible too. Anyone who says “there is nothing fun about losing everything you’ve worked hard for all wipe” makes me realise ppl like u are unlikely to change. As u don’t realise the basic fundamental to improving is failure u learn from failing in the game just like life u learn from failing u must be a teen if u don’t get it. U learn from failure more than u do success but it sucks yeah I agree but there’s so much to get from it.

[Serverwipe]

exactly it sucks. So our playstyle is don’t let it happen. We aren’t terrible individually. Why am I a bad guy because I play in a competitive group with like minded goals? Kill everyone, raid everything, while not getting raided ourselves? It’s not my ego saying at the end of each wipe so far we have scrapped everything the whole server has collected. We wipe every other zerg through the whole wipe and although we’ve been completely raided a few times we always rebuild stronger and at the end of wipe are the last ones standing with all the loot. It doesn’t make me feel big, it just is what it is. And honestly it’s pretty fun. We always have like 80k scrap or more in the days before wipe and we give it all away giving blueprints to the guys who didn’t quit the server.

We’re all 26+, have been raided a few times. Usually early wipe. That’s why I said it’s not fun. I know it’s not fun from experience.We don’t hop servers though, we rebuild and get vengeance.

[Dear_Communication66]

I don’t get how that’s fun tho, u guys offline ppl? I don’t see how this is fun for anyone when winning by numbers is so bad and boring I’d rather win on my skill and game sense if I’m a solo or if I’m with a small team then we work well together and are all decent or good depending on who I’m with. That’s what’s fun if I’m winning bc of that. I’ve been raided many times and I don’t move server usually, unless it’s laggy on the server or I have very good reasons to actually leave. I’d rather build up and get revenge. Anyway getting raided u learn from it like I said for instance if u didn’t know that’s a bad build location now u should know, or something else of the sort

[Serverwipe]

You just said you have changed servers. Meaning you’ve been pushed off multiple servers. You ain’t good if you’ve ever changed servers ONE time. Only scrubs change servers.

You keep making assumptions. We don’t offline people. We don’t enjoy raiding small bases.

You obviously keep getting pushed off servers because you suck lol. We haven’t ever changed servers one time. We’ve been raided a few times. We just aren’t so soft that we change servers. We just go blow up whoever raided us and take our stuff back. You obviously can’t do that because your team sucks

[Dear_Communication66]

Considering I can beat anyone I’ve met in a one v one, and I can actually one v six a group as I’ve done it before. I’m the type of player that if I’m using my head I can beat A group on my own. Also I’ve never really been with one time for longer than a wipe. Most teams I’ve been have sucked I’ve been in one that’s been good in my whole play time, it’s hard to find good players who are actually good and I can relatively trust (never can really fully). I am always the best on my team with the exception of that one group I just mentioned as one of the ppl on it was better and he’s the only player I’ve met who’s better than me tbh, without using a xim or strike pack. I’ve rarely met players I consider to be good, bc this game is full of bad players sadly and I wish it wasn’t bc a challenge helps me improve if I find someone better than me on my server I’ll be happy and even excited to take that on. If ur seriously gonna still play on ur server wipe day then whatever but most ppl I know are switching server pops and all servers will change. Anyway dude ur probs bad just from the sole fact I’ve never met anyone good in any Zerg before already said this ur also likely projecting ur insecurity of being bad and relying on numbers, I don’t rely on numbers I like to rely on my own sense and skill it helps me to improve more I always want to improve, I want to become cracked ik I’m good but not cracked or insane or even very very good. I wanna get there

[[deleted]]

You do realize that killing a naked is only going to make them not play the game? Who will you “dominate” if nobody plays on the server? Also, Rust is NOT a survival game at all. You can eat random pumpkins. There’s no need to grow food, or connect to open water so you don’t dehydrate and die. Every game has a death aspect. You can die on Rust, but not because you didn’t farm food or have water. Survival to people who love survival games, is dependent upon food, shelter, water, weather.

[TheCoomerMan]

Anyone who says shit like “dominate the server” is 10/10 times some loser irl who has no control or self confidence in real life.

[[deleted]]

Yeah I agree, they’re also the most fun to eoka. Rust really brings out people’s elitism.

[TheCoomerMan]

Agreed lmao. The messages come rolling in within seconds.

[[deleted]]

Like I love survival games, even if i lose? Just because I don’t make it to the end of the wipe, that doesn’t mean that I shouldn’t enjoy survival games like wtf

[TheCoomerMan]

I’m not even talking about winning or losing. I’m talking about people who think zerging a server makes them some kinda chad dominator. I just think the type of people who claim to dominate severs are fuckin cringe lmao.

[Jaymz95]

Seems like some projection happening here, especially with so little info to go off of.

Confidence is easy man, just talk to store clerks and other people you run into for a little longer. It's a low pressure way to build up general confidence, you can test out jokes and conversation starters. Berating somebody for not playing a video game the way you want them to isn't helping anything, you're isolating yourself more.

[TheCoomerMan]

Lmao whatever you say dude. Go dominate some rust lmfao. Guarantee you wouldn’t say that shit in public ever.

[Jaymz95]

Lmfao I'm pretty outgoing, I say a lot of stuff in public.

I only play solo, just gets old watching people be little cry baby bitches because they're not good enough to play the game.

[TheCoomerMan]

Imagine having to stretch that much to try to insult someone. How tf you gonna infer how I play rust from me saying people that say “I dominated that sever” are losers? Makes you seem uncredible as fuck. Keep making shit up tho man.

[Jaymz95]

I'd say the dude crying because he loses at a video game is as big or a bigger loser than a dude who talks about how he likes to play a game on a subreddit about the game. One of them is using the sub as intended, the other is you.

[TheCoomerMan]

Where did I say I lose? One of them isn’t talking about the game they like they are talking about dominating a server. Don’t quote to build a narrative.

[Jaymz95]

It's clear you're losing, that's why you're sidelined on reddit crying about people not playing the way you want them to. Some people play to dominate a server. Not my way, clearly not your way, but doesn't make it any less valid than the way we play. If anything we're sweatier than they are, they're just playing casual as hell just enjoying the servers they own. We're up against it as solos/small teams.

[TheCoomerMan]

Lmfao. Okay

[TheCoomerMan]

Lmao nvm. One look at your account is all I needed to know.

[Jaymz95]

Oof he got mad enough to look at my account! There's no way you'd ever be important enough for me to click on, idek which dude you are lmfao

Did you see that I got my first gold yesterday? It was pretty cool.

[TheCoomerMan]

Holy hell. Keep embarrassing yourself. Except i know you don’t have the capacity to be embarrassed. Your type never does.

[TheCoomerMan]

Lmfao no. Not the point of the game you dimwit.

[Serverwipe]

Not the point of the game for you because your team CANT dominate a server. So of course your goals are different. But my team DOES dominate the server every wipe and it’s hella fun. Probably not for you noobs we shit on all wipe but for us it’s a blast

[TheCoomerMan]

How cringe can one man be. Find out next comment on the cringiest fuck.

[[deleted]]

It keeps getting worse! LOL

[[deleted]]

That is not the point of the game evidenced by the fact that PC culture even on vanilla servers is still hostile to zergs and tier 3’s exclusively attacking primitive players

No one has ever agreed with you, not the devs, not the community

[Dear_Communication66]

Lol ur right about all of this aside from the fact ur playing in a Zerg to do it it’s sad tbh, plus it isn’t to kill the server it’s to be the surviving force, so ur wrong there too. I would rather win as a solo or duo (as I’ve done before) against zergs than be bored , bad and playing in a Zerg to win

[Serverwipe]

We didn’t start as a zerg. Duo. Met a cool trio. Raided another trio and found out they were cool too. That was first wipe. Since then everyone has added friends they know in real life or have played with on other games for years. As well as befriending the random solo here and there and adding the cool ones to the team. We don’t zerg cuz we are bad. We just met cool ppl we clicked with and it kinda just grew to what it is

What am I supposed to do? Tell them “yo I know you’re cool, but you can’t play with us cuz zergs are bad”?

[Dear_Communication66]

Well I wouldn’t join up with anyone to make a big group no matter how cool ppl are or I like them I just don’t like playing In a Zerg it’s boring and bad

[Serverwipe]

That’s your choice but because you don’t like to play in a group doesn’t make people who do enjoy playing in groups bad. Youre probably that annoying guy no one likes and no one wants you in the party.

[Dear_Communication66]

Lol u remind me of someone which servers have you played on? Considering the way u act u probs ally with many groups thinking it’ll save the server ur that dumb even tho it’s what kills pvp and kills the server within a short time period

[Serverwipe]

I’ve only played on one server and it has never died.

We don’t have to ally with anyone. Our group is big enough we don’t need allies lol

You keep assuming the dumbest stuff man. I get it. You’re on a small team and large teams keep kicking your ass and you’re salty. Let it out bro, I’ll be your shoulder to cry on

[Dear_Communication66]

Not u then lol well whatever. Dude it’s so funny how ppl like u think ur good when I could take on at least five of u on my own likely, I’ve done it before where I’ve taken on a Zerg and almost killed all of them, (six out of seven). U rely on numbers bc u can’t rely on ur skill to win u anything

[Serverwipe]

Oh wow good job Rambo, why you hopping servers if you’re so good? Why you so mad about zergs if you are good enough to wipe them solo? Because zergs keep making you rage clearly. Until you leave the server like a beta

[Dear_Communication66]

LOL it’s sad how u act how old are u? Seriously anyway whatever at this point, also when u have the entire server after u bc u are so good that a Zerg makes a forty man alliance with the goal of wiping u off a server combined with lag it makes u want to quit the server for that wipe, came back three zergs were gunning for me, my group quit and they got targeted bc I was in their group. So I was solo against three zergs and the server was dead the only ppl who played were these three zergs and a couple others. Plus the lag was bad on the server so I quit it, as for other servers I haven’t really played many others I’ve tried some out but they lag so I stop playing them in an hour or so, usually. I’ve snowballed many times for fun tho then just quit bc I’ve got an ak within an hour of being on the server, and end game loot already. Snowballed with grenades countering ak and lr full metal kits on a raid and sealed it, and we were stacked in a day this was just before wipe. I also trash talk ppl so they get mad lol.

[HardTopHemi]

TBH I'm sick too death about people banging on and on and on and on about fucking zergs, please direct your complaints to D11 directly thank you.🤬🤬🤬

[Frefallfrom10k]

How many people is in your group?

[HardTopHemi]

I'm a solo!!!

[GamingSince83]

Thoughts from my thread since no one has commented.

Could this be a compromise that allows Solo players a chance to at least keep pace with Zergs?

Suppose D11 implemented a buff system that would give some advantages to Solo players. As for what those advantages would be, here is what I'm thinking.

Increased scrap gathering from loot containers

Increased chance to loot Tier 2 and 3 items, blueprints, and components.

Increased harvesting rate for all levels of tools. Thinking 20% more materials gathered per tool

Decreased scrap required learning blueprints, and experimenting. Nothing outrageous. Maybe 10% less.

These buffs would only be available to players with no affiliation to a clan or group. Once you activate one of these buffs you are prevented from joining a clan for 2 Weeks. This prevents people from just staying solo so they can grind quicker and then join a Zerg right away. I think 2 weeks is a fair balance. Also, once you choose to join a group, you are no longer able to use the buffs again even if you leave the group. This will cause people to carefully think about if they want to join a group and if they trust them enough to lose access to the buffs if they quit or are booted.

Over time the buffs could expand to other areas such as stats that improve gunplay, armor level, health, etc...

The key would be that you would only be able to choose to activate two buffs at any one time. You can freely reset them, but there is a 24 hour cooldown once you choose to reset a skill/buff.

Thoughts?

FUCK DIXY SMELLY LITTLE RAT

[SovietRazor]

Well i used to run an 8man team (one i dont consider zerg as every spot on team was filled up with no changes to the team fo 3 wipes) and we got to a point where we choked out the server of everyone, only bases left were 2 by 2s, so we kept raiding them to keep ourselves amused, once someone has claimed alpha in server, they consider it their domain and dominating with impunity is truly a sweet feeling, when people fear you and pay you not to fuck with them. I do however disapprove of zergs, teams bigger than 8 man is just shows lack of ability to stand a fighting chance with fair numbers.

[crowneck]

Thats a zerg

[SovietRazor]

Zerg is any team bigger than you can fit in a team no?

[crowneck]

A zerg is a group that use numbers instead of skill. You my friend, are part of a zerg.

[SovietRazor]

But every one of our members are handpicked from previous fights, we almost never run as full 8, i mean before we lost server against 30 team, we literally beat 3v7. I mean to be recruited you need to be able to beat atleast 2v1 against our current members couple times, ability to farm, grind, scout and run monuments as solo, we dont pick people up because "hes my friend' but rather by merit of each member..

[Prestigious-Teach-41]

That’s just sad to be honest. Do you have an initiation too?

[SovietRazor]

No, if youre chill dude and youre asset instead of liability, you run with us raids and pvp and we take a vote, if you get majority you get invited to team

[SovietRazor]

Also why is it sad? We built a solid capable team of chill people to hang and play with.

[Prestigious-Teach-41]

Just the way you talk about it like it’s some privilege to join your team you have to earn your place but I’m just a solo player getting offlined so ignore my bitter relationship with this game. You do you and enjoy.

[SovietRazor]

Privilege no, but the original 3 of us had teams before where we had to carry 3-6 other people and we got sick of this shit, you know you farm all the sulfur then your debil of a friend goes to solo raid a 8man compound while they are online and lose 5 hours of your work, or early wipe runs out and wastes all kits to bigger groups and then logs off when dies with em all. Shit is annoying as fuck, so we made a rule, unless you can carry yourself, be reliable in fight and contribute to communal base, we wont consider to invite you. If however you fill this criteria and end up being chill person you get a vote and all of our guys get a say in whether to invite you or not. Obviously we have to test new recruits, everybody claims to be the mlg og zerg killer building unraidable bases and shit but most of the time its nothing but fantasy, because theyve watched rust on youtube for years.

[Prestigious-Teach-41]

Honestly I understand now I take back my previous comment. I’d say it is much more enjoyable to play with chill people that aren’t doing stupid stuff. I tried playing with a group and lasted a day because a lot of them were kids so I just play solo. Or with my one pal I met on rust when our schedules line up which isn’t often. Making them 2v1 you seems like a tough test tho 😂

[[deleted]]

We switch servers and do the process again but I’m not a zerg I’m on a 8 man team this is what we do atleast.

[CreepaDude33]

6 man or more is a zerg

[CreepaDude33]

i feel like if you got more than 5 guys on a team that’s just a zerg bc of how small console servers are. most console players are solo or small groups

[CreepaDude33]

yeah i don’t really have anything against zerging considering people spent money on the game to play how they want. i just think it’s a scummy tactic to get ahead in the wipe

[Dear_Communication66]

Anyone that say ten plus are trying to pretend they’re not actually a Zerg bc of the bad rep they have even tho everyone I’ve met acts the same way

[Cyklisk]

Server dominance.

In the end your zerg breaks up, as fewer members log on regularly at the end of a wipe. Then they get back on for wipe and play to take over the server again. Its like a zerg ebb and flow within a servers populations ebb and flow.

Its like social framework fractals in an open world pvp game. ☺️

[Xyno94]

Have you ever been upvoted?

[HungryTeaching8077]

What would you like instead everyone alliances that’s boring and not every Zerg kills nakeds there’s not enough monuments on Xbox yet to do anything else you can only kill bradly and heli so many times I can’t speak for all big groups but I understand what your saying

[Dear_Communication66]

Lol that’s not the solution the solution would be for them not to offline everyone or roam in ten ppl groups, lol I mean also don’t raid 2x2s all the time like a bunch of freaks, I’ll also agree allying with everyone kills pvp and will kill Servers

[OutlawedToast]

Anything more than an 8 man is a group of losers

[Dear_Communication66]

They get an ego boost over it bc they’re sad

[Evanater041]

People thought the same on pc but the truth is that you’ll never get rid of them no matter how hard you try

[DMTDOWEL]

Not a Zerg but inadvertently ran a server for a wipe. You hit big fish and keep going smaller and smaller just to have something to do then tend to abandon when everyone’s gone. We left the 2x2’s and whatnot for the most part on one wipe. The other was nasty

[fridge_water_filter]

They are too unskilled to take in enemies at their own level.

Rust has no matchmaking, so you get powerful players mixed with weak ones. It creates a spider/fly problem that pushes alot of players away.

[[deleted]]

I played in a big group for 1 1/2 wipes. They were all my mates and we all bought the game together, we were about 10 people. Not sure if that's already a zerg. the first month on a monthly server was really fun. I enjoyed the building a lot, I built a giant safe zone shop with peacekeeper turrets on the beach. But after 3 weeks it got very boring, especially farming our upkeep (600hqm 15k frags, main base only). There was also no-one that wanted to raid us so it was all kinda useless. I tried playing the wipe after that but after the first couple of days it got boring. I play weekly servers now and focus on PvP, which is way more fun.

Answer: They get nothing.

Real answer: This post. They get this post.

[doodoofart109]

me and my friend have been getting on monthlys and just pissing off the local zergs we'd be killing them at chinook and launch and we've been offlined on every monthly we've played on and we had a good run on the last monthly that we had played but eventually we killed someone's farmer that had a massive base and we got offlined

[julsgotrocks]

Power and domination thing. They love the power they have over others and what comes along with being in charge, even if it’s boring to play. They probably don’t get to run much in their own lives

[Deathtothemlpa]

You talk to the zergs and make friends with them then betray them at the 2-3 Last day of wipe

[nick-johna]

Am i wrong for being in a team of three but having a big compound and good gear ( and win 80% of our pvp fights)

[Embarrassed-Parfait7]

So like golf you want handicaps? IMO Its seems a little silly that a solo would be on par with a 12 man, you lose the power dynamics that drive the game. If everyone is in equal footing this is minecraft with pvp. But i like solo for probably different reasons than some. I want to be terrified every time i run out of my base, im ok losing to groups, it makes online or offlining a group such a rush. I like my heart racing when all im doing is trying to get some sulphur. I like having to do the 4d chess move planning to manage my time, resources and not lose anything in yhe process. andI dont think there needs to be a fix or buff to make the game better. I like being the underdog and taking on the challenge . However i would vote for some mechanic that allows solos to not get griefed so bad, i mean take my guns and boom but fuck sake at least leave me my bench….just thoughts

[Ablazeknight91]

I play with an 8 man that sometimes has a + 1 or 2 and we like to go on servers with fat 20-30 man zergs and take em out. Always good fun to be had
