Hi Brave New Rust Community,

It is the start of Season V of Brave New Rust. New changes to the Rust game, and new changes with my life. I just came back from my trip from the desert and like always learn new things about humanity. I hope you enjoyed your time in Brave New Rust in April. Overall, people came and go, but the fact people are still coming in and playing and checking out the Game Development of Rust, is a great thing. Good thing were still in Alpha…

It’s a New Month and New Season, So both the AUS and US have a new Map and New Wipe. Sorry no XP system yet, it looks like they will add it hopefully in June. Until then, Welcome to Season V of Brave New Rust. I’m still in the process of moving so it looks like I will be out of California before the end of the month, until then…stay Rusty…

Cheers,
