Proper bridge building in Rust - A Bridge Over Troubled Water - Rust

After seeing all the eyesore floor/wall ladders people were building to get across water, I decided to build a proper bridge a couple days ago and wanted to share it here. It's on the Washington server all the way on the west side of the map, perhaps a little to the northwest. Took about 2-3 hours to complete with only myself building it.

Shadowplay is not an option, unfortunately.

WTFF, NICEEE!!! The foundations work in midle of river WTF oO

looks good man. Was the water here relatively shallow or did you just do a lot of scuba diving to get it done?

That's neat. Shit like this is the reason I don't understand how anyone could think Legacy is better.

Good job.

[QUOTE=Ram;46230234]looks good man. Was the water here relatively shallow or did you just do a lot of scuba diving to get it done?[/QUOTE] It was pretty deep in the middle and required alot of scuba diving to lay the plans/hit with hammer 9 times and repeat after drying off. also had to build temporary service ramp ladders in the bridge about every 10 sections so i could get out of the water quick enough without dying.

OMG, you should make a video!!!!!

Great Job Mate, needs more lanterns :)

Nice work! Been trying to do this and still not as good as yours! :)

"put your in his anus" "finger" Best clan names ever.

[QUOTE=houri;46230982]OMG, you should make a video!!!!![/QUOTE] I Wanted to make a video showing how to make a bridge like this, but I cannot get DXTory to record in rust experimental.. worked fine in legacy though. Can anyone suggest a good program to record gameplay that works in the experimental rust? Shadowplay is not an option, unfortunately (only GTX480, shadowplay works on 600 series or greater) [QUOTE=GrymThor;46231173]Great Job Mate, needs more lanterns :)[/QUOTE] It's half lantern/half campfire along the railing right now. Looks fucking awesome at night time with everything lit up!

This is awesome! I have made quite a few elaborate builds, but not had much success in water, I always seem to drown before I get very far. Would love to see a video once you figure it out. Would also love to do some collaborative building together at some point... ;-)

It's half lantern/half campfire along the railing right now. Looks fucking awesome at night time with everything lit up![/QUOTE] Get pics :)

I just tried to get pics and try another recording program, but the Washington server was pulled just now... right after I harvested 100000 wood to keep the fires going all day, lol

Fraps can record in Rust Experimental so you know. :D Great work on the bridge.

a very functional and well designed build simplicity trumps the fancy

Great work Mate, creating stuff like this is always inspiring to others. Now to get the developers to put sharks in the water.

If you posted this a day sooner I bet it would have been on todays Community Update.

Awesome job man! =) [QUOTE=MordecaiW;46231923]Can anyone suggest a good program to record gameplay that works in the experimental rust?

What version were you trying to use?

2.0.122 is the current version i have. havent update for a while, perhaps that is the problem. thanks for the support list! edit: looks like 2.0.126+ is the supported versions(s) for DXtory. updating now!

WAIIIITING!!!! MAKE !!! DONT FORGET !!! PLZ !!!

Dude -- this is awesome. I really hope you are able to take a video of the project.

very nice work. i love the lantern lighting along the bridge

Shit like this is the reason I don't understand how anyone could think Legacy is better.[/QUOTE] People who bought rust thinking its was going to be a FPS game instead of a survival one :zoid: Ask any of those legacy lovers why they dont play experimental and why they still play legacy and the answer will be the same " when can we raid ? " " When can we kill others " " when can i pvp with my m4 " -_- I keep telling them that rust is a SURVIVAL oriented game but they dont listen lol. i remember someone asking garry if he could add jetpack and laser guns to make rust compete with bf4 and cod -_-

[QUOTE=houri;46250192]WAIIIITING!!!! MAKE !!! DONT FORGET !!! PLZ !!![/QUOTE] Unfortunately the server I'm on has a group of trolls who enjoy griefing bases and destroying structures. They saw me building a new bridge project that was quite awesome and unique and have been griefing everything with lv6 walls, railings, looting items/keys through doors, the works. I'm going to have to record the video on a different server unfortunately but I will do it ASAP. It's a shame some people *only* play so they can grief & exploit to obtain stuff others have created/obtained, and the ones on the current server I'm on (Washington) are some of the worst trolls I've seen in the game yet.. straight sociopaths. They use spectate whenever me and my buddy are on to troll us because we called them out in chat for barring everyones doors and griefing their bases. Names are "Nipplez", "Burns", "Mustard" and "Tex". Liars, cheaters & griefers, through and through.

You can build all day, and not see another player! [QUOTE=MordecaiW;46258404]I'm on (Washington) are some of the worst trolls I've seen in the game yet.. straight sociopaths.

One of them (Nipplez) had exploits that go above and beyond the normal stuff. He was walking through walls (spectated doing this, and saw in person) and had scripts that would make him go from naked to fully armed/armored in the blink of an eye. He also has a script that induces lag.. said something along the lines of "how about some lag then!" and everything went instantly choppy, something I had only seen him do to his own character before to make him harder to hit, but it affected everything in the area, my buddy who was with me had it start at exactly the same time when he said that. I respawned nearby in my base because there was no key outside i could use, and i saw the "entity" count during loading had skyrocketed to ~150000, when it was previously hovering at around 30,000-50,000 for that area just minutes before that. Shit is broken as fuck right now, but I still find it enjoyable to build new designs as well as combat, given there is an even playing field. Unfortunately, that is not the case in Rust currently.
