Not seen this game spoken about on here yet so thought appropriate to share.
Folks who enjoy DayZ, WarZ, Nether, WURM, Minecraft etc will enjoy this game. Currently recently launched as early access on Steam.

How optimistic!!Actually I've put around 20 hours in and not died to another player, lots of helpful communitys around. Just need to find them!
This only works well for individual players if the server would reset the gameplay.
Otherwise clans would totally dominate the whole gaming world building their influence and powers, groups would just hassle people playing by their own.
Doesnt this happening right now in the game or does this game offer a clever solution for this, I doubt it ?
The game looks interesting but if the game world works like I think I stay far away from it....Iam not into EVE Online gameplay at all.
Already have this and its in a very playable state already..
Still no clan structure in or anything yet but the crafting and combat are all there and seem to work fine. Some quite large servers out there as well.
It is just like War-Z but with crafting. Devs already showing they only care about money by banning people who simply asked about where their game key was, forums heavily moderated and despite what you say it is indeed a pvp gankfest. Groups just roam around destroying what others build/accumulate.
You don't say . . .
Always the eternal answer to why OWPvP is not popular, yet OWPvPers like to deny it. Actions speak louder than words, and so far it's 100% certainty that this is the result.
See, like I thought.
This gameplay will be a huge problem for individuals who are not organized in clans/groups. You invest time to build up your house, you are dedicated to advance and groups just destroy your whole work and kill you, hassle you.
Sorry this is an antisocial gameplay for me and its actually no fun if clans can dominate the whole game world.
The more people a clan has the more powerful it gets and this is just too simple without any gameplay regulations.
Well the game is about survival the only thing I do not agree with is the ban this company stupidly handed out towards its members for saying spam customer service maybe they would get a response or something like this which is the reason I have really considered not buying the game myself other than that the game looks good.
PVP/Survival isn't for everyone perhaps nether will be better.
It's a top seller on Steam...
In the game space on steam it says it has pve servers.
In Rome Total War there is a unit of naked warriors. I never really understood why they should be terrifying.
Now that I have seen some RUST PvP videos I know the reason. Nothing is more scary than a gang of totally nude PvP'ers who want to gank you using stones or axes. That IS terrifying !
No game for me, I would probably get nightmares.
Lolz. That how all games go nowadays.
Here's some youtube vidder who is less offensive than a loud site opening or stupid steams birthdate questionnaire YES I DON'T USE STEAM HAHAHAHHAHAAA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cd7Nc5Du9lU
The up side of a PvE server is that you can't be killed by another player. The down side is that they can plant C4 on your buildings, blow 'em up, and loot all your things while you stand there, unable to do anything.
A sure sign that you are in an old, dying paradigm/mindset, is when you are scared of new ideas and new technology. Don't feel bad. The world is moving on without you, and you are welcome to yell "Get Off My Lawn!" all you want while it happens. You cannot, however, stop an idea whose time has come.
Twelve thousand people playing today, not too bad for a game that hasn't even reached an official release state yet.
I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.
it's by the same guy who made Garry's Mod. and pretty much all Valve fanbois are Garry's Mod fanbois it seems. so he will definitely be raking in some cash.
ive watched some Let'sPlay vids and the game is already a gankfest nightmare.
one day i'd really just like a simple survival game: me against the wilderness.

an infinite game for the purpose of continuing play."

I actually had some interest in this game until i read this post on MMORPG.com:
http://www.mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/397639/page/1
It seems like the devs in this game do not have much respect for their customers based on this post. The person who posted this included some scathing proof of not only customer abuse, but actual thievery. The guy obviously purchased two keys, at 20 bucks each. So why was he just ignored and then banned? Not a great way to build customer loyalty. You certainly lost me as a customer.
I would avoid. As others have mentioned, the game is being developed by Facepunch Studios, headed by Garry Newman (who made Garry's Mod). However, from some of the posts I've him make, including his Twitter account, he seems to believe he's achieved demi-god status and his level of conceitedness is profoundly irritating and disrespectful. You know that tone when someone thinks he/she is simply better than others? That's his core and the core of his company's culture.
And likewise, you can imagine the type of demographics and community he attracts. Visit the Steam forums to get a taste of how toxic the community is, and keep in mind that this game is a highly, almost solely community drive game.
Here you go......some impressions from the game Forum
"..there is no way to protect your property, none, unless you can be online 24 hours a day and Stay at your homestead. It takes 2 min to break doors with an axe that takes 5 min in game to craft. Metal doors are harder but after about an hour in game you can get and craft c4 which makes doors fall instantly.
It would not be so bad if it took more than 2 min to screw someone out of 10 or 20 hours of work ."
" Any building is raidable in less than 3 hours of play ANY building. in 3 hours you have c4 , and all the other tools needed to raid. All that needs to be done is make raiding more expensive ,, harder to do, devs say no so ,, if your a griefer ,, good god your going to love this , otherwise its a waste of money."
"an metal hatchet will take those spike pieces down in a few hits, any armor over leather and you can walk right in to the spikes and just wack the crap out of them, the small spikes are even more silly as you can jump over them. The tall spike walls are easier to chop down than the wooden doors,, figure out how that makes sense"
"PVP servers are a death match, the guns are too easy to make and blueprints, mats to farm for players already established. They need to remove the amount of gun drops and get rid of zombies. I see a lot of feedback like this lately."
Other words...
"I laugh at this post because, yesterday, a friend and i were completely raided, lost 10k+ wood, metals, guns, you name it it was all taken after building everything ourselves. Come to find out, our own fault in faulty structure building. Clearly, OP is raging because thinking outside the box and actually having to think about structure creation AND placement is too difficult. The map is gigantic, even in the current stage of Alpha"
"ok they raid u but when u expand your house and place alot of steel doors they can harley come true"
"All you have to keep in mind is to not stock big amounts of farm just use to build your house. If you get raid and they see they had to use 20c4 just to get nothing I insure you they wont come back that soon. "
"ROFL funny watching all the people say its going to get better, rust has been in this state for over a year with very and i mean very little improvment i'v been playing sins 9 months and nothing...well almost nothing has changed."
" 2 hours of play and you have a fort that needs 20+ C4 to get into, and 20 C4 would take a LOT of resorces for them. Losing your stuff is part of the game."
"Is this another WarZ fiasco? Isn't this the game RockPaperShotgun were drooling over at some point because zombies were not really the focus? "
"a home full of doors should not be needed and the current trend is to build a tower next door get on the roof and c4 your way in the top. "
"I wouldn't say don't buy this game, but don't buy this game if you are a whiny sack like the OP. "
check this out... this a game for trolling others
"I think some people are just ♥♥♥♥♥. After spending ages to solo setup a small 3 foundation base(somewhat hidden)with a metal door. To cut a long story short where I helped him out after he was pretending, he later blows the door open and kills me. Ok now I do expect that from certain people.But what I didnt expect, was when I respawned he had build a wall inside my small house which then left me trapped with nothing but a rock. So I understand the PvP but I dont understand trolling nob heads. I guess some people are just sociopaths and that is hard to change."
Wait til release.
If it's not broken, you are not innovating.
Have a read of the Steam reviews- seems to be masses of complaints about bad community and constant ganking of newbies. It is a shame because if they had managed this inevitable issue I would have been pretty interested.
