Facepunch founder Harry Newman published a letter in which he summed up the results of 2015 and shared the plans of the RUST multiplayer survival simulator team for the near future. And it became known that:
- Now the average online is 15,000 players (peak - 29,000). So the game's community continues to grow.
- A total of 2,976,670 copies of the game were sold in 2014 and 2015.
- In 2015, 198,501 copies of the game were purchased in Russia, and 186,791 in the USA.
- 48% of players have played 20+ hours, 50+ hours - 29%, 15% - 100+ hours.
- In 2016, RUST will leave the Early Access stage. But updates will continue to be released (they will be related to new content, not gameplay). The system of construction, destruction and other basic bases will not change after that. But there will be new AI, vehicles and weapons. Naturally, developers will not forget about adding balance edits, optimization and bug fixes.
Read more - Work has already begun on the Roadmap. You can see it on a special page . Of the most interesting changes, it is worth noting:
First quarter of 2016
Experience system. Players will have experience, which is a kind of currency. Experience is awarded for collecting resources and crafting for the first time.
Character level system. The level is based on the total accumulated experience. And if you increase the level, then you open up new blueprints.
System of drawings. It is somewhat reminiscent of the tree-like system of skills in other games (if you want to open a new blueprint, you will first have to learn the previous one).
Skill system. Skills will be divided into 3 categories: survival, crafting, and fitness.
Second quarter of 2016
By chopping trees, you can get branches, berries and bird eggs.
Wolves will become much more difficult to fight. And the bears will have vulnerabilities (that is, it is useless to hit other parts of the body).
With the help of self-grown food, you can gain experience (you just have to eat it).
Also, this week is likely to be a wipe of servers.
