From PSU: "Rust is an unflinching multiplayer survival game that requires endurance and patience in order to really unlock its potential. The dynamics it creates in terms of player interaction are endlessly fascinating and prove to be a real boon for organic narrative flashpoints between players. Its pure multiplayer focus does mean it doesn’t have what you’d call a traditional endgame, but it more than makes up for that with the unpredictability its social design brings."
Akin from The Nerd Stash: "Rust is a brutal, hardcore game that remains a bastion of the survival genre. It's far from perfect, though, and there are a number of issues that developer Facepunch really needs to address. But will they?"
Rust continues to punish with its difficult online experience from both the game and other players, and June's update is starting to roll out.
One of the best survival games available heads to console but is hampered by its limited game updates and lack off features.
