Ok so yesterday was my first day on rust. I would like to say thank you to everyone involved in building the game and the devs being kind enough to give us the opportunity to play the game early.
After playing for 2-3 hours I noticed someone said in the global chat "it really annoys me that when I first start as a fresh spawn people kill me straight away it completely destroys any interest I have in playing the game."
I was having the exact same issue! And within the 3 hour period of playing I got absolutely no where due to being spawn killed. Even talking to people in game with voice and doing the jump/crouch thing.
So it got me wondering maby you could implement a spawn protection for a fresh spawn say like 30 minutes or so? Just enough time to gain some resources and build something to hide in!
Thanks jake.
lol.
No way, bad idea. Its a difficult game, thats just how it is. Although I agree it can be frustrating. The most you are probably going to get is something like this

Or use your invincibility to bodyblock people in their bases.
If your tired of dying so much play on the Non PVP server lmao

no collide is on.(People run through each other)
Your best bet is to straight away find a place that has trees, animals and resources (wood bundles, rocks) and with 20 or 30 wood build a door. theres plenty of small shelter's laying around unused you could barricade yourself in, otherwise you'll have to build one yourself. kill some animals to get cloth and use that to make a sleeping bag. build a storage box, keep resources in there during runs and only travel with essentials so if you get killed its not a total loss and you spawn in your little shack with something to start with again (hopefully)
oh and on the pvp server if someone offers you stuff its most likely a trick. avoid people til u have something more than a rock to fight with
What about for people who is really new,and once they place a block or hit something its gone?

what a pointless idea... you almost instantly hit a block...
No, I don't like this idea at all. Do you have a spawn protection when you are in africa? This game is all about survival.

make it as in wood or just to mine
[QUOTE=ea;42211454]make it as in wood or just to mine[/QUOTE]
exactly, doing that is a instant requirment making it pointless, also what if you don't wanna mine? you can run around and grief
30 minutes of protection? Are you insane?
If there's any spawn protection, I'd rather it be a radius set around each spawn point that you can't build in, and that IF you freshly spawned in that radius, you can't get hurt. If you leave the radius or a certain amount of time passes (1 minute max), you can get hurt again. If you re-enter the radius, you still get hurt (so it's a one-shot deal).
You said "Amazing Ideas".. I dont see any amazing idea.
30 min is too long and would also be unfair to those who keep spawn killing due to the fact that you could run up to them and hit them with a rock till they die then they get a 30 min protection.
As one of those who get spawned killed a lot I dont think protection is the way to do it but rather more starting equipment or better spawning like in low population areas.
I'd have to say 10 minutes but have a blue force field around you so the nooby spawn campers dont waste ammunition.
how about instead of 30mins of protection, everyone can see your location for 30mins and maybe that will give you a incentive to stop being such a noob and learn to play the game.
You're a complete idiot, if you don't want to be killed, don't approach armed players and don't be seen. Simple.

Don't be seen? Are you and I playing the same game? You can see players from miles away and the sad excuse for trees offer pretty much zero concealment.

They are bigger than your body... If you are able to be seen and they are too, watch for them and run at first sight. Be more aware. Countless times where a noob is trying to kill a deer or something and wanders right up to me.

Pretend that you were in a real situation in hostile territory, what would you do? Hide in bushes, dont stay out in the open, go cover-cover, find refuge in abandoned homes, avoid the enemy, stay quiet.

non pvp is boring as fuck because nothing happens
pvp is annoying as fuck because most of the time is spent starting over again'
at least for me
