The game itself is fun to play. It's most fun with friends together. Fun is the key here, because nobody can win this game, you just constantly battle each other. Even if you do not have the biggest base at the end, you all get wiped and the server resets. Hunting other players is fun, raiding, farming, missions; all have great aspects of accomplishment when done successfully for a long duration. Very rewarding. Search for "pay to win" skins, because there are some essential items, such as the Arctic Hazmat suit.

Cheaters are in Rust. Cheaters are less found on premium servers, due to the $15 minimum in skins required to play on these servers. Reporting them in non-premium and non-official servers has great success in getting them banned on many servers with active admin.

Edit: In bi-weekly servers there were too many cheaters blatantly cheating. They get banned and immediately return with another account. Not prejudice to say they are all Chinese in SEA, because these were. Most server admins do a lousy job banning them quickly, but when they have time in a day or two they will ban them. It has ruined so many games, so we play on Official Facepunch and/or Premium servers.

Fun game!

EDIT: 15.2k hour review. Spin bots and cheater noobs have infested the game. More than half of my games have cheaters. Game is a waste of time.

I have stopped spending money on the whole game.

Game released as a bare bones FPS, security flaws, and the poor optimization.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS GAME.

If they had Dangerzone again, at least I have a chance to kill cheaters. But nothing so far, as of early March 2024.

Too many hackers in Dangerzone.

EDIT: Upon further review (13.2K hours), I have determined this game's infestation with cheats to have been reduced SLIGHTLY. Valve still does not do enough, given their $2,500,000 per day revenue. I've concluded that Valorant is not as good as CSGO, and if you don't like that fact, good. Your mother can't cook, anyways.

Valve did crack down on "gamesense/skeet" after decades of rampant cheating, but they seemed to have stopped there. Going after "Midnight" Russian cheats and Chinese "680" cheat, is the next step. After that, aimware, cartel, iniuria, and others should be a walk in the park; they all use the same exploits. Find somebody that wants to work, and hire them. Some "VAC" employee with 7.5 years at Valve just quit, so there's an opening. And where the hell is VACnet? Still learning how to detect a spin bot after ten years? Cool...

EDIT: Upon further review (9.9K hours), I have determined this game to be infested with cheater noobs. Valve certainly does not do enough, but their efforts are noted yet lacking, given the $2,500,000 per day that Valve enjoys. I recommend Valorant or a competitor to the CSGO game.

Valve, you never go after the cheat software "gamesense/skeet" or the Chinese variant "680". These are widely used programs, and should be easy to setup a file in game to detect. My suspicions are that programmers at Valve are either lazy or incompetent, because any college student these days in programming, is making a cheat for this game to help pay for their school.
