Facepunch Studios' brutal online survival game Rust has been going (and going) for years. Its punishing gameplay seems to entice the most sadistic of players, and updates continue to add to the world. Now, the most recent patch implements enough new stuff to match a Schwarzenegger flick.
A recent video uploaded to the Rust/Facepunch YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@fcpnch) gives a good idea of what you can expect the next time you log in. Among other things, the developer has now added an attack helicopter, which comes complete with a gunner seat. There's also a homing missile launcher to take down said helicopter, and also an armored hot air balloon because why not?

One other thing that's been included in this latest update is the weapon rack. As the name suggests, this gives you a handy place to store all those guns. And while you're at it, have some parachutes as well, which allow you to "travel silently over long distances." More details about the new patch can be found on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/252490/view/3669925177429727838?l=english).
Not rusty yetIf you're a newcomer to Rust, you'll know how tough it is to make it through those first few days. When it's not the threat of starvation or the wildlife that's keen on gnawing your bones, it's the other players who are, quite frankly, trigger-happy.
Still, it's worth it if you can thrive in this harsh environment. The game's been out for several years now ? originally releasing to early access in 2013 ? and Facepunch Studios seems only too keen to keep improving its survival IP. Plus, now you can literally "Get to the choppa!"
