Early Access Review
Rust is the best survival game on the market. With that being said it has some flaws in it. let me give you a run down of the Pro's and Con's

Pro's
-if you like a competitive survival game you will love this.
-the building element is strong.
-the fights are balanced.
-the game is very populated.
-the game is updated every thurday with new stuff coming out every week. (Recently the updates have been dry)
-the game is supported in every popular language even pirate!
- It has a lot of potential
- very polished
- never really gets boring
- promotes team work (but also gives the lone wolf some light)
- Raiding is fun
- Defending is fun

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Con's
- To run the game you need a average or above average computer
-the game contains nudity if you did not know (you can blur it out in the F2 menu)
-the game is stuck in Dev Hell, its been in alpha for 2 years, and will prolly never leave its state of alpha
- the thursday updates have been slowly becoming more and more dry as the year has evolved
-the devs have not held up to there promises, (i remember during march they were saying they were going to drop cars in the coming weeks, then drop a generator sometime after that, and now were in december almost in the next year and they havent dropped anything really game changing then
- If your raiding in this game, chances are your going to raid someone that is not even on which isnt even that fun
- the crafting system needs some serious help
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
all in all i give the game a 7/10 its great, its kinda going thought a slump right now its dry, the community is tired of the same old same old. but its still one of my favorite games, i can say that i have enjoyed my 500+ hours in the game (which is nothing)

would i reccomend it Yes i would but the game has some issues stated above.

2023 edit, the game is in a very healthy state, almost all of my cons listed above have been rectified or fixed. truly one of the best survival games on the market
