DEPLOYABLE DEBRIS [SOFTCORE]
A selection of deployable objects in your base will now leave behind a destroyed version when killed in the softcore game mode, allowing you to repair them to quickly get your base back up and running after a raid.When destroyed, these objects will drop 50% of their contents, the other 50% will be stored inside and accessible only by the player owners.If the deployable is destroyed due to losing its ground, it will fall to the nearest position and won't be repairable on the spot. You can still pick it up with a hammer and repair it later at a repair bench. This new behaviour is enabled on:

• Large Wooden Box
  
• Storage Barrels
  
• Small Wooden Box
  
• Coffin
  
• Small Furnace
  
• Electric Furnace
  
• Locker

Rust will soon be getting modular cars that players can modify and drive around. With this being a major new feature, we're releasing it initially in a separate version of the game, which is available to try right now.Our aim with this new beta branch is to allow for plenty of testing not just in terms of fixing bugs, but also in adjusting how the new vehicles fit into the game as a whole. Various aspects may potentially still change such as how they're acquired and used, or balance to their costs and statistics. Please be aware that right now there will be bugs and missing features in this branch.If you're trying out the vehicles branch, we'd like to get your bug reports, plus any suggestions for changes you think are needed relating to modular cars. The end goal is to have modular cars fit well into the game as something where the value is equal to the time and energy required to use them.Details of how to access the branch, what to expect and where to give feedback can be found on t...

Happy Lunar new year to everyone! To help everyone celebrate we have added some new items to the Steam item store.First off, throughout the Lunar New Year celebration everyone will be able to craft a set of throw-able firecrackers to make a racket. Traditionally set off to scare away evil spirits, many people would set them off when opening the front door before they went out. We somehow doubt these will scare off a dedicated door camper but you can try!
New Year Gong A very large, very loud gong. You can hit it or shoot it and even play music on it as the note changes based on where it is struck.
Rat Mask To celebrate year of the rat we have created a beautiful bronze and gold Rat Mask. Similar to last years Dragon Mask, it replaces the wolf headdress.
Fireworks We've added three styles of fireworks which come in two different packages. The Small Fireworks package contains Roman Candles and Volcano style fireworks but if that isn't big and loud enough for you we've added a Large Fire... Read more

Happy new year tamers!2020 is shaping to be a very busy year for Temtem. We're very excited to share with you everything we have ready for the next coming months, but that news will have to wait a bit because today we need to talk about the Alpha and the upcoming Stress test.
The Alpha is reaching its end After 13 months of continued support and non-stop access to the Temtem Alpha, the time of farewell is coming really soon. As we work on moving forward with the public Early Access launch for Temtem we need to stop the Alpha access so we can work freely on improving the server and doing the final touches to get everything ready.Alpha will close on Jan 9th @ 10am PST / 1pm EST / 7pm CET.After this date, players won't be able to log in to the server.
Stress test dates and FAQ Just before launching publicly, we want to run a stress test to properly test everything out. The stress test will help us test the maximum capacity of our servers and will also allow us to identify potential proble... Read more

Santa is packing up and clearing out the bodies, we hope you enjoyed the Holiday Season. We're getting back to work after a couple of weeks off which is why this is a light blog and we are looking forward to the journey ahead in 2020!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone! The Christmas Event is once again live! If you haven't been around for this before, here's what you can expect:Every once in a while you will hear the sound of jingle bells. Run outside and look for a gift! Two gifts are spawned per player, in a radius of about 40m from where you are standing. Run up and bash it open to receive your Christmas presents. They come in three sizes: small, medium, and large. If you have enough small presents stashed, you can "trade up" to a medium. If you choose to unwrap a present, the contents in each will vary. I won't blow the surprise here, but you'll find a mix of resources, weapons, and candy. Some players may receive coal for being absolutely worthless human beings.Once again, you will be able to find Santa hats and reindeer antlers, both of which can be worn and provide a decent amount of protection. There’s also a lickable candy cane club, and two types of stockings. If you hang a stocking inside y... Read more

A new Archipelago Island opens its doors: Kisiwa.Kisiwa is the hilly cousin of Tucma, its main feature being the impassable Kilima Range that divides the island into two distinct halves. Hotter and dried than any of the other islands, Kisiwa features an unrivalled variety of landscapes. The eastern side has Vumbi and its famous dojo, as well as the wild Kusini Highlands beyond the Jino Gap, inhabited by a variety of  Neutral Temtem. The only viable ways to cross the island are the tunnels excavated by the tireless Kisiwans – Chini in the wild southern solitudes and Juu in the north, near Lake Moyo and the capital city of Uhuru. The western deserts are deceptive in appearance, for they are home to many species of Earth Temtem. What's new As usual, we won't go deep here in terms of spoiling the new area, the new quests you'll find there or the new Temtem. Instead, we will talk a bit about the new features present in this patch, starting with...Co-op! Starting today, you will be able to p... Read more

In the last year or so alone we’ve seen vehicles from boats[rust.facepunch.com] and hot air balloons to minicopters[rust.facepunch.com] and also horses[rust.facepunch.com] with horse armor[rust.facepunch.com]. We added new areas like the Scientist Compound and the Bandit Town[rust.facepunch.com] plus of course, Monuments like the Oil Rig[rust.facepunch.com]. We put electricity[rust.facepunch.com] in the game.

Also, Rust looks and plays a hell of a lot better than in Legacy days, so there’s that.We’re really grateful for all the support the Rust community has shown ov... Read more
