Fellow Rusters, Fed up with public servers? Tired of Community Servers with annoying Admins who destroy the Rustic "feel" of the game? Welcome to the Old West PvP. We strive to make the Rust experience fun, exciting, and gritty like it should be. We see Rust as a mix of Mad Max and the Wild West, with plenty of chances to run into trouble OR stumble across huge treasures. We've got players who prefer to stick to their own, and may not be too shy about raiding you when you're not home. We've got the nice type who gather and build, and new folk are always welcome as well. If you log when the admin isn't around, good luck to ya. He tends to have a job and whatnot, but if he's on you're sure to get an extra airdrop or two as a welcoming gift. I'm Daniel, currently the only active admin on this Magma/Oxide powered server. I've been playing Rust for months now and logged hundreds of hours on various servers. I know what I want out of a server and couldn't seem to find it. So, I made my own. To connect to Old West PvP: F1 to bring up your console: net.connect 8.6.9.29:28016 OLD WEST SERVER EVENTS AND EASTER EGGS: Presenting: "RAIDABLES!" These are server created bases filled with goodies and ready for raiding. Take the slow route by scavenging materials or look for one of several Raidables. They make great first bases and have everything you need inside. If you can get in... RANDOM STORAGE BOX MEGA MILLIONS!! If you happen to see a random "abandoned" Large Wood Storage on Old West PvP, make sure to check it out! Many are filled with supplies from airdrops, and some are loaded with enough building materials to make your own towering metal base!! CLOUD WORLD!! Test your jumping skills. Can you make it to the top!?! If you can a HUGE stash of good awaits you. Good luck!! If you're like me you know a good server is hard to find. I'm here to end that search. See you on Old West PvP!! -Daniel
Here's one of many unique structures you'll find on the Old West PvP server. Located between Portugal and Big Civilian (or Big Rad Town) is The Bridge Base: [url]http://cloud-3.steampowered.com/ugc/432650574766241761/705729D4125FCD26F7EB78872486BFB8058868A9/[/url] [editline]27th March 2014[/editline] An example of a "Raidable." This unique structure has a surprisingly huge arsenal hidden upstairs...

It's a great place to check out, but due to some local raiding we've locked the gates for the time being.

Our good friend Davo took the "SkyBase Challenge." Excellent form, Davo! [url]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/432651023149564168/7FFC75A70CC668C89169CA504A2375BE7F0808AB/[/url] [editline]28th March 2014[/editline] This guy made a rooftop battle arena. He's an excellent shot so watch out! The Rules: 1 player gets a HandCannon. Everyone else gets a rock, 2 bandages, and 5 medkits. Whoever kills the player weilding the HandCannon wins the round! The game happens organically, and can evolve to include full kevlar and pistols. Winner takes "THE STASH" Rooftop Arena: [url]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/432651023149551317/42F7DDCFD691CD4F271DD625054E548BA5D3971B/[/url] [editline]28th March 2014[/editline] ====================== IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! ====================== TP is available by request if you need it. We may be the Old West, but we're not barbarians. If you're stuck let me know and I'll TP you out of trouble. To get to the server: net.connect 8.6.9.29:28016 Another thing: we've got some new members. Areas are fillin up. I'd recommend building out pretty far, if possible. We've got some pro raiders and you'll want to build with them in mind. A new area has been added in Portugal, and continues to expand. It will serve as an excellent PvP arena: [url]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/432651023170168973/06E0D13A940F96666B826C37FC866603A264FE59/[/url] [editline]28th March 2014[/editline] ==================== MEGA AIR DROP TONIGHT! ==================== Our primitive radar equipment has picked up incoming military aircraft from the north, east, south, and west. Airdrop forecast for tonight is estimated to be: "F-ING EPIC" and Brian from Three Trees says "OMFG, I BETTER FREE UP SOME SPACE." We figure the planes will arrive sometime in the next hour or two! It's gonna be a winner takes all night on the Old West Pvp server!! ================================================================== To connect: F1 to bring up grey console.

==================== Old West PvP is GROWING!! ==================== Tonight was eventful to say the least. Much smack was talked in chat, while many players appeared to be playing in teams. Bases were born. Bases were destroyed. We peaked at a population of 12 players and now have over 20 total playing on the map. To cap off an excellent night of PvP'ing, raiding, getting raided, gathering, building, and aidropping, some of us headed to The Sickest Lads "Battle Arena" for a final battle. A final battle which ended up going on for 2 hours, with "The Sickest Lad" taking 1st place victory. Here we are on the "preparation floor" before entering the arena. 5 players joined this game: [url]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/432651023215630391/7A98389BAA083CA00C1EE5C897AB3A63F162A150/[/url]
========= RAID ALERT ========= Several bases have been raided, some fully, including a couple of Admin bases. Make sure to put as many metal doors between potential raiders and your loot. One raider has a "signature" -- here you can see Three Trees Lodge, post-raid, loaded with campfires stolen from an Admin area. The campfires led to another raided base. At least 250 had been placed. They have since been removed.

If I find a raided building, I fill it back up with some things and move along. If a wall is blown out, I replace it. Don't be discouraged if you've been killed in your sleep. There's a good chance I've come by and helped out a bit. Returning to your base may be a good idea until you get back on your feet. Most raiders raid and then move on. Good luck!

danielakadan How did you get the building in the air without pillars under it? [url]http://cloud-3.steampowered.com/ugc/432650574766241761/705729D4125FCD26F7EB78872486BFB8058868A9/[/url] Thank you, RustyOldMan
I have the Rust++ Mod installed, so among other things like the ability to list a chat /history or /players list (or /starter for a sleeping bag & hatchet), the Admin has the ability to remove foundations and pillars. The base pictured above is known as "Bridge Base." It was built as a large rectangle initially, then the supporting pillars and foundations in the center were removed via a Rust++ Admin command called "instako." This allows for free travel underneath the base and creates an iconic shape new players can use to help orient themselves.
Hey everyone so i was playing this server and i came across a large wood storage box and when i checked it i found my self some building suplies and now i have my own metal base. makes the game a lil easier when the admins do this sort of stuff and i also climed an obstical course(which was so much fun)and found my self some items to defend my self from others. All i can say is this server is one of the better ones i have played on in a while keep it up daniel and more ppl will see this server and hopefully coma and have fun like i am thanks for taking the times to read this. LOVE DAVO114
Thanks Davo114! And yeah, watch out for Richbastard if you're in North Valley. He's a bit of a naughty leprechaun sometimes, he's not KOS by any means but you'd better behave yourself or face his wrath. Davo114 is a master base builder. Best avoid raiding his masterpieces unless you want to waste a shit ton of C4. See you in the wastes... -Daniel [editline]6th April 2014[/editline] ================== FIVE FOR FIVE SUNDAY! ================== If we can get FIVE new players to join NOW (8:16 PM Pacific Time!)

=================== GOOD FRIDAY BLOW-OUT =================== What's so good about "Good Friday?" Airdrops, duh. And Easter Eggs.

Don't like Easter at all? That's ok, because in Rust, Easter is completely different. Instead of "Easter Eggs" you get "Move-in-ready Bases" and "Large Storage Boxes Full of Shit." So...

======= OMG ======= F-ing updates. You know, it's hard to keep a full time job, (and by that I mean 12 hours a day), satisfy a beautiful woman, be a good father to a family, AND keep up with these @@#!#!ing updates. But I'm not gonna let that get to me. Y'know? You'd think paying almost $20 a month would guarantee you a little R&R but noooooooooooo!! They had to go and update this ALPHA game. Crazy. Anyways...

are there stil lraidable bases?
108.61.120.55:28016 JOIN OUR SERVER!
As far as I know, ALL bases are raidable! :) Even those builders who claim to have completed an "un-raidable" or "iraidable" base have been proven wrong! [editline]11th July 2014[/editline] ======================== OLD WEST PVP *WIPE* ??????? ======================== Here's the deal. I've had some folks tell me we have too many "large structures" on our server. This, according to them, is adding to lag and forcing them to play elsewhere. I've destroyed some old, abandoned towers but there's only so much I can do with an Uber Bow and InstaKO. It takes me a significant amount of time to fully remove one large structure. I've also restarted the server, which seems to have helped. So, the question is: ==================================== DO WE REALLY NEED TO WIPE OLD WEST PvP?? ==================================== Since this is a community, I want to pose this question before implementing an action which could really bum people out. Myself included, I am proud of all the cool structures on our server. So I'll leave it up to you guys. To wipe, or not to wipe? That is my question. ====================== To connect to Old West PvP: ====================== F1 to bring up your console: net.connect 8.6.9.29:28016 ======== HAVE FUN!! ========
