Survival game Rust adds in boats and an exciting Chinook Event

Now that Rust is out of Early Access, their big monthly updates are quite interesting. The latest added in plenty of fun.

It's been teased for a long time, but the Chinook Event is finally in the game officially! This doesn't replace the traditional helicopter, it's an additional server event. 

Be warned though, there are AI scientists aboard and they are prepared to defend it. It will do a run through some in-game monuments and then eventually release the payload it's carrying. What makes it interesting, is that it's not a traditional box that it drops. Instead, the loot will require some time to disarm the locking mechanism, which will make it very interesting for groups going after it.

In additon to that, there's now boats! They can be found along the shores and require low grade fuel to operate. However, act quick as they decay if they're left outside for too long. It's not enough just have boats though, to spice things up there's now floating junk piles in the water full of loot to find as well.

They also did another pass at the vegetation in Rust, adding in more variety to the types of trees you will see as well as making forests a bit more common and more dense. There's less chance of seeing boring and barren empty fields and more of this:

Beautiful right? Rust sure is a pretty game.

Find the details on our servers here. Be aware, our community-run Rust server is "friendly PvP" not the traditional experience you would find in official Facepunch Rust servers. Essentially, don't repeatedly go for the same people and take all their stuff all the time. The server is wiped on the first Thursday of each month, which is forced by the developer and helps keep it fun.
