• update and wipe info
    29 replies, posted
I am new to rust and its my first wipe tomorrow. What time is the wipe? How long do the servers remain offline ? Also ı think there is lack of proper information about this matter, especially for a new player. There should be an anouncement on the site for the specific hour of wipes, on every update and if its just map wipe or blueprint wipe.
wipe will be needed after patch is relised, wich is usually in the evenning. I do not know about official servers but non official it depends on admins and how quick will they make it. usually about 1 hour from patch i can play on new wiped server. sometimes faster.
another wipe? this is ridiculous
There's a wipe at the start of every month at the moment
[QUOTE=El Kapitan;49226704]another wipe? this is ridiculous[/QUOTE] wipes are good. Fresh server, everyone naked with only spear and stone pick gatherring resources. In Rust, the most i like few days after wipe. later it is little boring, less people playing. Yesterday we radided a base by rockets and about 40 c4, we get to the loot. there was everything, AKs, bolts, armor, food, resources. We took only sulfur and charcoal, we don't need nothing else. In the begining of the game you are happy if u find a gun, now we leaved 2 crates full of weapons.
[QUOTE=guru80;49226860]everyone naked with only spear[/QUOTE] *for about 10 minutes
[QUOTE=Avigna;49226879]*for about 10 minutes[/QUOTE] best 10 minutes every month :D
but how can we know if its map wipe only or bp?

Will this be a blueprint wipe or just map wipe?
Noone knows?? There isn't any announcement before wipe? Please devs people wanna know how long until the wipe, time of wipe etc, a proper schedule!
Usually it's a map wipe. It is up to the server owner. Usually bp's aren't wiped.
wipe the bps to make everything fair. [editline]2nd December 2015[/editline] some lil kids gets to op for their own good.
often bps wipes will make the players upset. yeah its maybe necessary at some points in this stage of development but it shouldn't be done every month.

Don't complain if you don't know. It's common knowledge.

I was just about to ask that! Are they still quite late in the evening?
[QUOTE=jojoras;49235342]I dont mean the day dude! I mean more specific about time, hours etc. So we know how to plan our day to be on exactly when servers are on![/QUOTE] Oh, my bad. Usually it's in the evening (western european time), but, since there can be an issue even minutes before the update, they choose not to give a precise time to avoid people getting all salty like "dude you promised an update at 10pm, it's 11 and still nothing, you suck, me and my 2 friends are going to quit the game!"
[QUOTE=Bearen;49235099]There was posted at schedule in Devblog #85, go read.[/QUOTE] Where? I see that he says "Wipe updates are an opportunity for us to do all the stuff that would have otherwise break saves" but I see no kind of schedule. It would be really nice to know when exactly its happening and I do agree that wipe scheduling should be more broadcast to the public. A lot of people that play the game have no idea about it.
Is there a specific time for official servers? I love wipe days. [editline]3rd December 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=garry;49226771]There's a wipe at the start of every month at the moment[/QUOTE] Oh And Garry. I have 997 hours in game. Thx for the awesome concept. You guys get a lot of shit but it's a fantastic game.
yeah, at least a "wipe in the evening after 21:00" or something like that if they can't be specific. Just to let people know. We can't be on constant expectation whole day. Its so simple to add a single line in the server info in game and say " wipe tonight " or " wipe in couple hours".
did amsterdam wipe yesterday or is it gonna wipe now? info would be great :) other than that, great game!!
Wipes are on Thursday. So no wipe yesterday. Duh. BTW, so much ass-kissing :smug:
yeah but "yesterday" might differ considering different time zones. also specific times/server would be great :)
[QUOTE=cyphen;49237655]yeah but "yesterday" might differ considering different time zones. also specific times/server would be great :)[/QUOTE] Wipes are on thursday for you also, unless they run late.
any new info about the wipe? Is it soon for hours later?
[QUOTE=Bearen;49235099]There was posted at schedule in Devblog #85, go read.[/QUOTE] You know how unfair it is to expect people to read months old dev blogs for info about wipes? How are they even suppose to know(besides you telling them to go read it...) OP is 100% correct about the wipes the info is nearly non-existent(burred info doesn't count), just playing about 2 months ago they changed from 1 month wipes to 2 week wipes, now its back to 1 month, I feels ya OP.
[QUOTE=cyphen;49237655]yeah but "yesterday" might differ considering different time zones. also specific times/server would be great :)[/QUOTE] garry is in england. use that as a baseline for which "day" the wipe is going to happen on. but seriously, people need to relax. either keep checking back, or leave it alone for a day and come back on friday. the wipe doesn't need to be spoonfed to you.
