Rust enthusiasts, it’s an exciting time in the world of survival gaming! The Rust development team is halfway through this month’s update cycle, and they’re gearing up with new features and fixes that promise to enhance our gaming experience.
New Vehicles on the Horizon
The latest addition to Rust’s transportation options is the introduction of bikes. Currently in testing on the Aux2 branch, we can look forward to two types of bikes: pedal-operated and motorbikes. The latter even hints at a sidecar variant for passenger travel. Although still in the early stages with placeholder visuals and limited functionality, the prospect of zipping around the Rust landscape on two wheels is thrilling!
Radtown Redux: A Monumental
Update Work continues on the ‘radtown redux,’ an upcoming monument type that’s sure to add depth to the game’s environment. With a focus on textures and colliders this week, the development team is fine-tuning the details. While we await its game debut, we can only speculate on the adventures and challenges these new monuments will bring.
Express Yourself with New Gestures
Adding a touch of personality to player interactions, a series of new crude gestures is likely to make its way into Rust. From the classic middle finger to finger guns, these cheeky additions will allow players to communicate in more expressive (and perhaps provocative) ways.
Seismic sensors
Seismic sensors are set to revolutionize base defence and strategic gameplay. These devices will be able to detect a range of explosive events, from the subtle footsteps of a sneaking intruder to the earth-shattering blast of a helicopter crash. With a detection radius of 1 to 30 meters, players will have a new layer of security for their bases, giving them the upper hand against would-be attackers. The current model seen on the staging branch is a placeholder, hinting at further refinements and functionalities in the final design.
Prisoner Hoods and handcuffs
On another front, the development of prisoner hoods and handcuffs is progressing steadily. This feature will introduce a new dynamic to player interactions, allowing for the capture and restraint of other players. Imagine the possibilities for negotiation, trade, or even establishing order within the game's chaotic world. The details are still under wraps as the development takes place on a separate branch, but the anticipation is building for what could be a game-changing update.
Ongoing Fixes and Improvements
The team is also dedicated to ironing out various kinks in the game, ensuring a smoother and more stable experience for all players.
These upcoming features underscore Rust's commitment to providing a deep, immersive experience that challenges players to think creatively and adapt to ever-evolving threats and opportunities. As the community awaits these updates, the buzz is palpable, with players theorizing and planning how they will integrate these new tools into their survival strategies.
