I dont see what the problem is with rust being $30-$60 that about price of a normal game in the US and at $60 its £40 here which is a normal price of game.

Whether or not it worth that much you will have to wait and see but its more or less pre ordering a game and then playing it untill it comes out.

The only problem I have with the pricing is that the company base in the UK and yet they dont use £ and it would have been nice to know about the extra fees before hand.

I'm going to risk drifting away from the whole money discussion with a question :P
It involves, well, money.

• we don't know what the final price will be, it won't be free to play

It seems obvious that it won't be COMPLETELY "free to play."
My question is: Will it be "pay-AS-you-play"? (monthly)

I guess "free to play" sounds like the opposite of that, but I doubt that's how it was meant, and it doesn't seem like a monthly-payment type game either.

Confirmation?

Thought it was a buy to play format with the standard option to rent private server, MP hosting and so forth eventually?
I can see paying for expansions, but would really hate to see this become a subscription based game as well.

you really think you got scammed?
this is too high profile to be a scam, not sure how the cdkeys are handed out, based on your post i hope you typed your contact details in correctly.

on a side not, there is 250 cd keys now, thats a bonus, it might get below $35 now!

[DEFFECTZ]

Did someone buy a key for like $220?

[Helk]

Thanks to whoever bought it!

That's what I figured. Thanks Ya'll.

[Weirdness]

Miss having an account. I keep trying to buy it but they're all sold out when I wake up because of the timezone difference.

Edited:

Plus I'm pretty sure my name's been taken by now.

[SpeedyBoy235]

Don't forget to update the "A Dutch What!?" section on the left with the new key quantity! :)

[Yarchi]

250 keys! This is Awesome! Now I also tore off a piece of the pie! GREAT!!!

[Rehclip]

Well darn. I hope the line isn't too tough on Saturday. When I leave for work, the price is still at around $100. When I get back home, its already reset back to $240!

[Wolfiee]

Boyfriend is under the impression that the Rust keys are no longer being sold (he saw the store offline) and was sad. Good thing I came back to offer to throw my money at people to get him one for his birthday this weekend :'D

Buying today. Stalking the shit out of the site.

Are you saying that it takes you 10 hours to get back home?

[Ithz]

That time of the day is comming again! Eyes on the number of keys left..

Yesterday when i looked the number was around 230, got up to eat something then 15 minutes later sold out D:

[Wolfiee]

Ugh, really? I have to leave work soon, so I'll probably just buy it before I leave lol

[Ithz]

When it gets close to 25 it goes down preeeetty fast

[xuereb]

Just bought a key and now the US server is down FML

[Wolfiee]

Got one for $26 while driving home from work lol. Didn't want to risk waiting till $25 and then have my phone fuck up.

Gave it to BF as an early b-day gift :'D /bestgfever

[Helk]

We're working on the server issues, we'll keep you posted!

Thats exactly what I'm saying, including drive time.

[Sharia]

I would suggest buying when it gets down to 50 or 40 keys at the lowest....they really start flying when the numbers are that low.

You can now buy keys here:

Before you freak out at the price - watch the buy button for a couple of seconds. You will notice that the price is dropping.

wow, 200k from rust

that was easy especially because this all started with a thread in fp gaming, and spread like crazy

[garry]

Price dropped from $240 to $100
