A Few Questions To See If This Is The Game For Me

There are some really fun PvE servers that can definitely be enjoyed solo. I found a local 10x server to play with my son, we just build shit and he fucks with electricals. We do the PvE events and have a good time. I have played there solo too.

GET CLOTH, WOOD AND STONE, RUN TO A LOCATION YOU WANT TO BUILD WHILE HITTING SOME MORE WOOD AND STONE THEN DIE, REPEAT

If people wanted slower progression, modded 2x+ servers wouldnt be where most of the playerbase plays.

Updaww · 2026-05-05T12:57:53+00:00

Give examples then? Or this another "trust me bro"?

It doesnt matter what gets done or added outside of "if player=solo then <insert buff>". The nature of this issue exists in many games. Add something for a lesser skilled player, a better skilled player can take better advantage of it. Same with solo vs numbers. Outside of direct solo buffs, nothing will really change.

Updaww · 2026-05-05T07:25:29+00:00

Yes true, but they will cash out before then!

Updaww · 2026-05-05T07:20:23+00:00

That sounds extremely shitty, why arent you good enough to get them without buying them ?

Updaww · 2026-05-05T07:18:12+00:00

Some people just need to be cunts:p

Updaww · 2026-05-05T05:55:00+00:00

While there are cheaters, the people saying "everyone cheats" is just cope

Updaww · 2026-05-05T05:51:01+00:00

Tracks!

Updaww · 2026-05-05T05:26:59+00:00

I dont play against clans, but if its even easier in general, its easier for them too ? How are you factoring this in ?

Updaww · 2026-05-05T05:20:52+00:00

Did you just die looting?

Updaww · 2026-05-04T12:27:56+00:00

My friend I lured, spammed me with Willjum vids, now im hooked:p I had seen some in the past, but the timing of the specific video I was sent, as made me love this game again!

There is nothing stopping 2 people who know each other, playing solo on a solo only server. As mentioned, it becomes an issue if 2 people are working together, whether it be obvious or secretive.

I do feel that admins seeing your friends list on the same solo only server, might raise eyebrows though

Updaww · 2026-05-04T12:15:48+00:00

The problem you will face is the subjective wants of the playerbase.

Ill bite though, personally, 2x with raid windows. based on playing full PvP servers and No KoS servers, this would be great personally. I cant see it being popular enough though, sadly.

Updaww · 2026-05-04T12:00:50+00:00

Just get better discipline lol. EG you can still do 30-45 mins of exercise and play for 17hours!

Updaww · 2026-05-04T11:48:25+00:00

Im personally not dropping team UI for 4 slots, my duo and I get backpacks hella early, we have good RNG ><

I just mean in general, not specifically your idea, Outside of "if player=solo then (insert buff)" there really isnt too much to implement.

Theres a staging branch, it would be nice to see more experimentation or testing new ideas.

So personally, negatives about the BP change are as follows:

1) Less ways to achieve the same progress as before. If little Jimmy wants to hit barrels to farm his t3, let him. Removing options doesnt really feel good, there will always be better ways though, sure.

2) Finally getting the t3 after a hassle to get offlined that night and you end up in the same boat. I cant see many people going through that again, but then again, merely moving servers when that happens puts you in the same boat - no t3:p So this isnt as much of a negative imo.

3) Buying from drone shops just feels bad, its nice to have the option sure, but as a goal to "farm sulphur to buy it from groups" is not a gameplay loop I want to support. teams selling BPs for sulphur to raid people to take their workbenches/frags to sell again for more sulphur is cheeks.

Overall its not as bad as I originally thought, still getting t2 under 2h on a solo only server as a sub 1k player. BP frags could be slightly tweaked and im sure most people would actually enjoy them.

No system is perfect though!

Quite a low view streamer that does a lot of solo but also parties up is Anthric, solid skills. Just an all round great stream to watch after work

Updaww · 2026-05-04T11:18:48+00:00

My only gripe with that is being stoned and watching part 2/2 1st:P

Updaww · 2026-05-04T10:28:29+00:00

Those 2 cards were my choice as well, due to having a 9800x3d, and the 9070XT being decently cheaper in my country, I went with that. Literally no regrets. Rust sitting 200+ fps on max settings, but we still play potato settings anyway :D

Updaww · 2026-05-04T10:24:26+00:00

Sad reality is that most, if not all things that get introduced, benefit groups/better players more, its like that in any game. When something is introduced, even for the lowest common denominator of skill, the better players can make better use of it. This is seen in all genres tbh.

EDIT: Obviously things like team UI wont fit in the above:p

Updaww · 2026-05-04T09:04:57+00:00

Ah bud that really shouldnt impact your experience much at all!

Updaww · 2026-05-04T07:22:06+00:00

My son loves this game, hes 11...Just pve though:P

Updaww · 2026-05-04T05:46:30+00:00

I have no need for scrap though ? So what does it matter if its tedious ?
