New Kind of Rust Servers - Primitive (Hardcore)#6386

M

Many people on rust have tossed around the idea of a primitive server. I’ve played a couple and people absolutely love them. I think if rust gave it a shot, it could really turn into something big. Here are just some ideas I’ve thought about:
-Melee weapons, bows, crossbows, eokas, and satchels to raid with. (Waterpipes are lootable only)
-Fire arrows could be a tier 3 item. Compound bow a tier 2 item and so forth.
-Skins only available on Primitive servers (Tribal skins, medieval skins, etc.)
-Damage increased by 2x so numbers aren’t the only way to win (I’ve played primitive servers and this is important for the natural progression/flow of the game).
-This would be a great way to target new/renew players at a low cost on your part. All you would be doing is reworking what you already have to target a market of players that would grow your player base immensely.
-Many people love the game but the grind can be too much sometimes for people who have busy lives. Something like this could make the game fun for those people again.

Facepunch, you have a great game undoubtedly. Please toss around the idea and just see if it could be something that you might be interested in experimenting with. I’d love to hear back, thank you!

I’ve played them too, it’d be nice to have an official version of the medievil server I experimented on. Probably top 5 most fun servers I’ve played in 2k hrs.

Also, I have many more ideas for primitive servers but with rideable horses and horse armor being added to the game, rust already has the amenities to make it work.
