If you’re a newcomer to the Rust Game, the two most important tips to survive are Tactics/Planning and Vigilance. Rust is engrossing and addicting, yet brutal, especially for beginners. The more levels you unlock, the tougher Rust becomes. With more experience players in the environment, every newcomer’s life is at stake. Hence, players now perceive Rust as the most vicious survival game ever played. If you’re not attacked by zombies or animals, you become prey to other players.
