Hi Brave New Rust Community,

All the Servers are Updated!

This is our last week of Season 8 and I want to thank everyone that has join our server and generated traffic to our servers and websites.

There is one more week to go before we start Season 9 so here is what we have in store in the upcoming week.

After all the bug fixes done in Rust, were going to finally do a Full Wipe on the US and AUS Servers, London is not getting a XP wipe because I just opened it. So Sept 1st, will be an even playing field for both the Australian Server and US Server.

Thanks again for being part of the community, this next wipe should make the server fresh and should bring new players to the server.

Hi Brave New Rust Community,

It’s been a solid two weeks of Rust gaming, and with last month shit show. It looks like the Rust Gods have fixed the balance back to the Rust world. With hundreds of bugs still on the horizon I still wonder if we’ll be ever out of Alpha.

All the Servers are all good and updated, so I hope you enjoy the rest of Season VIII. Next wipe is September 1st, 2016…

It’s been a steady month, and people are slowly coming back to the Brave New Rust Community. So right now is a great time to come back and build on the server.

Our new members from Europe are already joining the BNR: London server, and populating it slowly. We also have plenty of new members from all the servers, so everyone welcome to Brave New Rust.

Thanks again for being part of the Brave New Rust Community you all make the server and the community. Cheers to making it all the way to the 8 Month Anniversary!

Hi Brave New Rust Community,

It’s Soma again, and I have been busy with real life working and I’m finally back home in Washington. So I’m slowly trying to keep updating the website and forums with the most updated stuff. I took some time off on Rust from last season from all the major bugs Facepunch had to offer. Last season sort of sucked for all of us and I have to admit the Server took a hit in the numbers. It was to be expected but I know that’s because this is still an Alpha game.

I tried to make a PvE server and that didn’t seem to work, and a small map didn’t even bring too much traffic either. This is probably because of the recent patches and changes to the game, Rust seems to still be in a limbo. So I have decided to try to do my next move, which is to move the 3rd Server slot to London.

London was a destination that was always on my mind for a while and since the base of the game is PvP. Other formats of the game didn’t seem to fit the server reputation of what Brave New Rust had to offer. I picked London for the next destination for the Server because I wanted to bring an EU group to the Brave New Rust Community. Hopefully, we can gather more traffic and to continue to bring a great Vanilla Rust experience for everyone.

Thanks again for being part of the Brave New Rust Community,

Welcome to “London – Brave New Rust”

Launch Rust and Press F1 to bring up the console.
Type “client.connect 173.199.74.37:28026”
