For instance, the larger crafting menu would clearly be easier to navigate with a mouse, but the game provides a quick crafting radial menu, which changes based on currently held materials and features commonly crafted items. The immersive nature of Rust Console Edition is quite captivating, and the systems are buoyed by effective console adaptions. Every once in a while, helpful tips will pop up, but the player has almost complete agency. Players are unceremoniously dropped onto the map with little direction. The process of survival in Rust starts immediately when food and water bars located in the bottom right corner start to gradually fall.
When entering a server in Rust Console Edition, players wake up on the beach wearing nothing but their underwear, carrying only a large rock and a torch. The game's immersion is its highlight, with fairly intuitive adjustments for consoles, but the presence of many bugsĀ and clunky gameplay in general are a detriment. Rust Console Edition is an online-only, cross-platform experience, where the presence of other players is constant and the stakes are high.
