Awwww yeah.

Edit: people on that thread on saying it's a "Trojan" - but that's what the cheating groups have dubbed it, no idea. It is apparently very very effective.

Edit 1: Looks it can take in-game screenshots of your view of the game client? and is using that to identify if you are using a cheating program or not - ~4500 banned so far (none of this is confirmed)

Edit 2: Garry is actively talking to people complaining about getting banned for hacking in that thread, it is gold, great read so far.

I connected to an official server, just to make sure I'm not banned :)

Nice to see those aimbots and ESP hacks banned, especially.

I was a legit player, a hacker made me hack. I don't play games for fun, I play to win. If people are hacking, I need a way to deal with them. I come from COD, and Smite, two very competitive games. I play to be the best. 350+ hours on Rust in 3 1/2 weeks.

Play to win? There is no win condition to Rust. That guy is stupid.

I never noticed before the shadow in the background of the main menu screen. My current connection error gives me a clear non-blurred view of it, and I think I know what the final "zombie" models will be.

Pretty sure that's a werewolf.

I can't really tell. How did you get the non-blurry image of it?

Thread
Thread 2

Just hit ESC to get non-blurry image.

The neck looks awfully long for a werewolf to me.

Reading that thread about the cheating, I'm now pretty sure that the group that did the home invasion on us had cheaters in it.

They were using super speed and ESP.

Yeah, at least the pk'ers on our server were not cheating, else they 1) would have killed me more and 2) would have broken into my house better.

I'm offended. For that, I break into your houses and kill you in your sleep.

I recounted what happened with s2 and buzz to my wife.

Don't be offended. Your response to two killers is legendary. It's my favorite Rust moment, and I wasn't even there.

I look forward to being interviewed by the news after your inevitable "incident" and saying "Oh yeah, we all saw this coming."

I don't think that's quite fair. TheCatt isn't approaching them like a ... well, like a cat playing with an injured mouse. He doesn't have that same air of snobbish superiority that the pk's tend to have.

Here's it's more like the mouse that has learned how to gun down the cat.

Fucked around on a 35ish pop newly wiped server tonight while watching the snow fall.

First run into a civ building found a pistol with no mods and 8 bullets. Further lucked onto an idiot breaking into a shack with a wooden door. He turned around just as I emptied four bullets into him. Great loot.

An excellent start!

Applied the Steam update, and I think it broke oxide again. At least I don't see any oxide log entries after the reboot like I should. Can't log in to check from work, though.

Explosives were supposed to be "balanced" in this patch. Will have to see what that actually means.

Edit: It means that c4 now does exactly 600 damage. Wood walls, windows and doorways all have 1k hp. So two needed per wall or door.
