• KeySwap and GamerTag Change Help Please !
    2 replies, posted
Hello! I have recently returned to rust. I joined rust way back when it was first released and the keys were sold 1 at a time through this ever decreasing cost mechanic and the game had its own launcher which I believe was the Unity one if I'm not mistaken. I can't seem to find out how to reclaim my old launch account and tie it to my steam. I still have the activation key I received way back then but cannot find a way to attach it. Also the "Login/Reset" options are grayed out unless I choose Steam, Google, Twitter, Etc. Is anyone able to help me out on this please?
You will need to open a support ticket with FP. The old legacy keys site that gave you a Steam key for your Dutch auction key is long dead so you'll need to manually contact them to sort it out and confirm your purchase records. https://support.facepunchstudios.com/hc/en-us/requests/new SEPARATE from your Rust serial key issue, Facepunch has completely revamped its forums, as you have likely seen, and the new account system utilizes your Steam/Google/Twitter/etc. account as public authentication instead of Facepunch holding your username and password credentials locally where they could be hacked. (As the auth systems explain, Facepunch receives a unique token that proves it's you by way of confirming you're logged into your Steam/Google/etc. account, but not your actual account password or anything.) If you care about linking your old posts and postcount, you can migrate an old-forums account using the migration system. Make sure you do not enter the wrong email address because each account only gets one migration chance.
Thank you.
