12:00am EST - Happy New Year everyone! A new decade is here, and with it, some incredibly exciting things on the horizon for Rust development. With the new year comes a new update, although given the holidays and status of various other projects, the patch this week stands to be light on new stuff.
Nevertheless, this update will force a map wipe on all servers when it goes live (which is expected at normal time, 2pm EST). Our update stream will go live at 1pm EST, follow @Rustafied for news throughout the day.
So long, Christmas!
As expected, Xmas content will be disabled once this update hits. Say goodbye to Old St. Nick and his sleigh full of goodies till next December - loot will be back to normal soon.
What else is coming?!
Well… nada. Besides a forced map wipe, disabled Xmas content, and probably some new skins, there isn’t really anything being merged into this update as far as new content is concerned. Most of the projects being worked on (HDRP, modular vehicles, etc.) are longer term which didn’t get production ready over the holidays (understandably so).
Never fear! Huge updates lay in the near future and you better believe we’ll be here to report on every bit of it.
