[@Chill.Gaming]

I'd like to see the new IO workbench crafting requirements be cheaper than a Level 1 Workbench, and access the IO tech tree from any other workbenches, just as we can access lvl 1 bps from a lvl 2 workbench. It would save on tier 1 workbenches around larger bases when you need to craft electrical items.

[@AngryAlfonse]

I love the eras idea. My issue with Rust in recent years is that it's impossible for someone with a job to keep up with unemployed teens and 20 year old NEETs who have AKs on day 1 and offline raid the entire server every night at 4am. It's the reason I quit playing. To alleviate this issue, I've long thought about a server where everyone is locked to t1 for a week, t2 for week 2, 3 for week 3, and then raiding doesn't unlock until week 4. But just having a medieval era server would also work well. Besides, the prim stage of the game is the most fun -- when everyone is shooting bows and throwing spears.

[@StayProteus]

My best strategy for avoiding the issue you have is to join monthly vanilla servers at least 5 days into wipe but I’d say the best is about 10 days in and then just run around the map in the morning or just whenever you’re able to play with the least amount of players are on and you’ll find countless decaying bases like I find at least 1 everyday doing that but if you actually tried I’d say you could find about 3 per hour easily and plus that timeframe of 5-15 days into wipe is the best to find cheap shop items both with discounted safe zone shops and player shops and with a honse farm it’s pretty easy to get a pump and suppressor and that allows you to finish off the decaying stone walls you’ll find and cheaply and stealthily raid decaying bases

[@lchrlstlanl]

Rock base with garage doors works well too

[@bushguy9710]

I miss Dark Ages for the medieval theme but unfortunately their class system killed the server anymore

[@Invertedworldx]

Just play in a pve server then

[@fuka9676]

i like the idea with week 1 week 2 week 3, but as someone who doesnt have that much time 2x servers are perfect imo

[@TensaDLuffy1776]

Jumping up on twig foundations is diabolical, there will never be escape again

[@scriptguru4669]

4:05 those leaf springs are the wrong way round

[@generaleccentric5506]

I think since its pulled all the way back the springs are inverted due to tension, but I'm no mechanic

[@sammyb106]

Yeah, would make sense if the spring was disassembled and made with the largets curving inwards, like normal, and the smaller ones layed so they all take tension

[@Mountainmonths]

it would still work like that and you'd get a lot of power with enough draw length

It'd be cool to see that IO bench also support the breadboard idea that was in the dev fun week

[@titanium_gamer4795]

What is the breadboard idea

[@Thing.Appreciator]

@@titanium_gamer4795 basically you get a breadboard item and you can wire other components into it, basically using existing IO elements as components on a circuit board, allowing you to miniaturize an entire IO circuit into a single deployable.

[@chickendoodles3566]

Yeah I had the same thought. I hope they add it into that bench

[@BackupSix76066]

That sounds amazing honestly ​@@Thing.Appreciator

[@Buddha_the_Pug]

A couple times, I've built a rock paper scissors game using the electrical components. Both players press a button, doors open for a short duration, and each shoots a target to make their choice. Lights indicate win lose or draw. Cool stuff. I can't wait for this eras game mode. Could be epic, especially with the siege weapons etc.

[@DavidAJBoyle]

I requested shields for ages, was told "That's a stupid idea" and even worse things on the subreddit and discords. Now I get the last laugh, enjoy coping shield haters!

[@Krizizi]

Imo they are only doing this because of Renown(2025 release). If medival community servers are setup they can keep the playerbase buying skins instead of running off to another game.

[@LazyBuddyBan]

Now if only we also get dense forests and removal of tree grow block from build area (less sniper fights on giant ugly empty fields) And it would nearly completely remove any issues of roof campers existing

honestly the sieging weapons would be cool in a online raid. defending alone against 20 people using catapults / ( rocket launchers for that extra chaos ) and ballista's would feel great. imagine 8 of them rush in with a melee and shield while the others hold you down with a ak and use their sieging weapons xD idk man would make for some good moments.

Catapult (or that is trebuchet) will be good ngl

[@joshuaturcotte6724]

So just because of a prior video, I must ask the ShadowFrax man himself: Could the system be adopting a new era due to planning around new content? Like maybe they will add systems depending on era your server has: Ex: Rust Modern (Allows weapons that cant be crafted such as the M249 and the like), Rust (Craft only for weapons, can find craftable guns as well), and the Ruin (As in the Ruin game becoming a mode). This would open up a lot of server oprotunities to switch up the server choices! Of course the "TeAm" has to decide this, but your thoughts of this could make a good video! Thanks for the fun update as always!

I’m so excited for this months update, siege weapons, shields, ugh I can’t wait man! Been playing Rust since Legacy and I always said there should be a Bows/Primitive only game mode or servers that are popularized. Now with siege weapons, and no explosives, I think that would be amazing. Cuz let’s face it, bow/Tier 1 fights are always the most fun and rewarding! It’s not fun anymore when everyone is running around full HQM gear and AKs/HLMG’s - it gets old and boring after awhile. I’m loving the direction Facepunch is taking Rust. 7-8 years ago they didn’t know what to do, especially with that horrible EXP phase of Rust 🤮 - now it’s incredible, and more exciting than ever. Now if they’d only bring back the old Caves, and Quarries inside base compounds lmao 😂
