• Not enough ressources
    15 replies, posted
How can I run around for 5 minutes without finding something? Ok the server got a lot of players but I really think it does not make any sense that the ressources are so rare. I think the solution to that would be random spawning resources and a lot more than right now. And what about the food, the pigs are so rare. You got to be lucky to find some. I'm the only one here who think more resources should be better? I think I have no choice to come back in this game when this problem will be fixed. So the forum only for me for now.
Dynamically spawning resources are already planned on the Trello.
That is silly. The resource hot-spots have give out adequate resources even on fairly populated servers, at least in my experiences. But I do agree that it can be improved. I don't think more nodes is the answer to your problem either. Because clans/parties of people tend to own hot-spots, it can make it hard to find resources in safe areas. that will just make the groups owning those areas that much richer. To better spread resources threw the population the amount of random spawning goodies should probably increase. (I did notice you mentioned it in your post, I'm just expanding on it) This would make it so you wouldn't need to run strait at an enemy stronghold in order to get some resources, while still maintaining the value of places where nodes are plentiful. All things considered its a pretty minor issue, so I don't really see why you'd need to leave the game because of it.
Maybe you are in the wrong areas, Where I built, I have food, resources, and near small rad. Hope i helped. :)
You gotta learn the map bro, there are more than enough to go around imo. What is the avg. server pop on your server? -Edit: The server I play on usually has 50 people on it and I could farm nonstop if I wanted to.
Kill resourcers. Claim your area.

There's an overload of resources if you find the right areas. They're very easily found.
I tend to agree, on servers with more then 100 pop, resources are scarce during mainstream hours. Even places like hacker valley are stripped totally clean consistently. It's a total battle / scrap for every resource node. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea everyone if fighting over the same viable resources, however dynamic resource spawning on population is desperately needed for servers over 80 pop. That and more random spawns of resources. Sure keep the hot spots as it gives something to fight over which I think is needed but sprinkle in more random resource spawns. There is SOOOOO many areas even on the current Rust map that could use some random resource spawns because as it currently stands theses areas just feel like a walking simulator and I'm not even talking about no mans land past spawn areas. I'm talking within the boundaries still.
[QUOTE=GMAK;44442522]I know some spot but I still think there is something wrong with resources.[/QUOTE] There [B]is[/B] something "wrong" with resource spawns: They only appear in a very limited area of the map. It's been like this forever. This is temporary, and resource spawns will be distributed across the whole map in the future. And this has been discussed repeatedly on the forums. Please use the search function next time.

I can confirm that since there is only 1 official non pvp server left, places like hacker valley are almsot always empty even at 2, 3 4 5 am. Hell I logge din about 3:30 am the other day and ther were 5 dudes running after rocks in hacker valley
I always get spawned in the south of the map, around the hangar area and generally there are a lot of resources spots. I think that resources will actually be harder to come by when they are randomised as at the moment i know where they spawn and if i don't find any i can go to the next place i know has resources. Also if i find no resources its a good clue to players being active in the area, meaning the best resource gathering tool may be a gun not a pickaxe.
You also have the option of playing on a server with added resources. It's possible *but will take a long time* to get resources across the entire map.
I think scarce resources are necessary. People need to be fighting (or coming together) to scrape up as much as they can to get by. Its not an easy life out there!

So the forum only for me for now.[/QUOTE] There are plugins that allow admins to set up new spawn points on the Rust map, me and the other admins are expanding the map with resources on a server we admin on. We are adding wood pile spawns and rocks we are setting animal spawns too. So after you climb over mount ever rust there is more room to build.
Resources need to be made so they dynamically spawn faster for each player on the server.
