Attention all Rust enthusiasts! The much-anticipated Quality of Life update is just around the corner, set to roll out on June 6th, 2024. This update promises to enhance your gameplay experience with a host of improvements that cater to the needs and wants of the Rust community. Let's dive into what's in store for us!
Monumental Barricades
Say goodbye to the frustration of unprotected monuments. With the new update, you can now place barricades on monument terrain. Although they'll be more fragile and decay faster, this addition provides a strategic advantage for defending those precious resources.
Reconnection Grace
Ever been disconnected and dreaded the queue to get back in? Worry no more! The update introduces a 5-minute grace period allowing players to bypass the queue and jump straight back into the action after a disconnection.
Horse Manoeuvrability
Horses are getting an upgrade too! They'll now be able to reverse at half speed, and their armour will slow them down less, giving you more control and agility.
Workbench Accessibility
Crafting just got easier! With a higher-tier workbench, you'll have access to the tech trees of all lower tiers, making your crafting process seamless and efficient.
Tool Cupboard Restrictions
To balance gameplay, certain items like sulphur ore, gunpowder, and electronics will no longer be storable in tool cupboards, encouraging strategic resource management.
Visual Cues for Building Blocks
A visual sphere effect will now indicate building blocked areas around monuments and caves, providing a clear visual guide to players.
Helicopter Stability
Helicopters will now stay put on slopes when unmounted and with the engine off, thanks to the new "handbrake" feature, preventing those pesky roll away's.
Creative Wiring
Get ready to add some flair to your electrical setups! Holding left shift and scrolling your mouse wheel while placing wires will now add slack, allowing for more creative and visually appealing wiring.
Efficient Farming
Planting seeds just got a whole lot faster. Hold sprint to quickly fill vacant slots in your planter with the selected seeds, saving you time and effort.
Battery Size Adjustment
Medium batteries have been reduced in size by about 15%, making them more compatible with large batteries and fitting better under half walls.
Salvaged Hammer Upgrade
The salvaged hammer is now more powerful, destroying barrels in just two hits, streamlining your resource gathering.
Skin Identification
When repairing skinned items, the repair bench will now display the skin's name, adding a personal touch to your gear.
Hammer Interface Enhancements
The hammer UI will now always show the demolish and rotate options but greyed out to minimize accidental clicks during upgrades.
Crafting Time Reduction
Crafting times for window-related items have been halved, from 30 seconds to 15 seconds, speeding up your base fortification process.
Compostable bone
Bone fragments are now compostable into fertilizer at a ratio of 4:1.
Vendor attachments
Show attachments in a tooltip for weapons for sale at vendors.
This update is shaping up to be a game-changer, addressing many quality of life issues that players have voiced. It's clear that the developers have been listening to the community, and these changes reflect a commitment to improving the overall Rust experience.
