There were also some make-shift weapons (such as the Revolver, Pipe Shotgun, Hunting Bow, etc), that were generally frowned upon by the community. Rust Legacy featured some interesting weapons based on real life army grade rifles and pistols (such as the M4, MP5A4, 9mm Pistol, Shotgun, etc). Because the game was hosted externally this meant that players could no longer play the game officially after it was removed. Rust Legacy was eventually removed from Steam in Devblog 139 on 8th December 2016, citing lack of player populatity. Initially, some players were satisfied with the choice to continue playing Legacy because the new version of the game would not run well on some computers, and some players preferred the simplicity of the original version of the game. However, the game was no longer receiving regular updates as the developers were primarily focused on improving the newer version of Rust. The game was in some aspects outdated which lead to the creation of what was then called Rust Experimental, which became the current version of the game.Įven after creating Rust Experimental in 2014, the developers left the option to go back to Legacy by selecting either version in the steam game menu. Of course those unnoticed monthly bad changes stack up and I'm confident in saying that the game is in a much worse state now than it was 2 years ago.Rust Legacy was the original version of Rust built on the Unity 4.5 engine and was released on December 11th, 2013 by Facepunch Studios. Rust has only made it this far because of its unique blend of core mechanics and the fact that a highly punishing game like this attracts a player base that isn't easily scared off by 1 bad change a month. This looks like a lack of passion and direction. It takes actual years of constant **** for the developers to fix glaring issues with them seemingly not understanding the problem in the first place. In fact they have only just recently (April 7th 2022) started collecting player analytics with that all but confirming that they had only surface level knowledge of how people play the game really puts the past 9 years of updates and missing balance patches into perspective.Ĭhanges are small and always out of left field it's often questionable if they are working on the game at all or spending all their time on a new project. The developers are a self-published small indie studio and they HAVE a public testing environment to throw new ideas at but they don't utilize it at all.
#Rust legacy steam update#
The survival mechanics are entirely neglected and easily ignored.Įvery update makes the game worse in various aspects or flops so hard that people forget it even exists after a week. There hasn't been any major PvE content or new gun in years and what's already there is hardly working or balanced. No efforts have been made to bring fresh air to its battleroyale-esque death match quick snowballing meta. One of those survival games that never actually left early access.
Stagnant meta, poor performance and nonsensical poorly implement or thought out updates. Other than that, I love the game and will keep on playing it.
When I get killed and lose all my stuff, its frustrating but i know its part of the game, but when a cheaters takes everything from you, there is nothing you can do and thats what has ruined the game for me a couple times. It all goes down hill when the players start cheating and ruining everyone elses experience.
There are really nice people in the game, but its true most are toxic, although this is an aspect of the game and how brutal it can be, and in my opinion it makes it fun. The bad side of the game is more because of the players.
I have been playing it the past 3 years and ive seen a lot of people complain about the updates we get but personally, every update we have had has been fun and gives us a better time, even if they havent fixed some of the problems there are. I have more than 3000 hours on the game, I am still not very good at pvp but for some reason, I really like trying my best to get the most I can, as a solo or with a team, I always have fun. Its crazy how a game can sometimes be so fun and so frustrating at the same time.
