If you haven't noticed already, the daily number of keys being sold has increased to 250. IMO, this is great news for all of us. Not only will the average price of a key drop, we also have a better chance to snag a key at a lower price, AND the community will grow at a faster rate. On a semi-personal note, starting Friday, I'll be purchasing 5 keys if they hit $20 to give away to people that are less fortunate and can't afford Rust.

My main point for this post though is to ask the dev/admins if this is a permanent change or will the max limit go back down to 100.

Thank you for your time and help. I apologize if this isn't a quality post but I figured I'm not the only one that is curious.

Cheers!

Edit/Update: Keys were sold out around $24 today! Hopefully it will stay the same during/after Friday (Payday)

Also, I've been contacted asking if this was legit & why I'm doing it. I'm the Gaming Community manager for Monster Energy, so I wouldn't want to ruin my reputation to get "publicity" :) The reasons why I'm doing this is because I love the community, I've spent probably over 100+ hours playing Rust in the past 3 weeks, and I just flat out love this game and want to support it any way I can. Now how I'm going to give away 5 keys to 5 lucky gamers is still undecided. If you have any ideas, please feel free to post in this thread or PM me your idea. ♥

Could you PM me?

Thanks for the update OP I was actually checking to see if there was a official post after I noticed they increased the amount to 250.

Also very generous of you to offer keys to those in need, you should have some sort of contest or something otherwise your going to be spammed by people begging for keys! ;)

[mrozie]

Yea i would love to get a key :(

Hope some day I'll get one

[Revine]

Dam it, just when I'm out of money :(

[Cik]

Yea. Hundreds are not playing because there isn't an anti-cheat engine and the third-party program players are pretty active.

I hope this is a sign that there is a corner that is going to be turned towards integrity of game-play.

[glitchdetector]

It is below what I paid for it, and still over 100 keys left

Went to purchase it around 40 keys left out of the 250 and found out my credit card wasn't attached to my paypal like i thought. :/
By the time I got it attached they were sold.

[Sharia]

Got my key right before they sold out! :)

Guess I don't really mind that I missed out on my key today, didn't know there were people cheating.
But it doesn't surprise me.

Yea... :/ Anyways. Would love to get one. :) If you do give me one i will play with you add me on skype live:collinsdennissam

[Pootisman24]

First off lets I just want to say that you seem like a kind and very faithful man. You giving away keys and all, that's cool. Maybe could you loan me a key? I don't care if you say no.
Go FluffyPandaZ!!!

2 days after I bought my key for $45, the medium price drops to $25. Great.

Man you can't just bitch about this... I know it is not a nice feeling but you just bought it, end of story. Think more like: you are helping actually this game.

Paid also 45, worth every cent and I am really happy because even if it's "expensive" I felt like helping this game as in, the humble bundle or kickstart.

Just hate peeps that tries to get the game foor free or very cheap.
On the other hand they spill money so other games or thing without saying a word. (not saying that it is you in this case).

This is great! Now me and other Australians have a good chance of getting cheaper keys!

I'm still thinking of a way I can choose the "winners" I'll keep everyone updated. If keys drop to $23 today, Ill be purchasing 4 to give away. :) Thanks for being patient guys!

Just as a special request maybe could I be one of four winners? We could be a team on Skype and team on rust maybe? Just a thought.
P.S. I don't have the money at the time

[SpeedyBoy235]

Lucky. :/

Enjoy the game. :)

You could host a contest or something somehow? Even if you dont choose me add me on skype, maybe if I do get the money we can play together and u can show me how to play? My skype is up there ^^

[JohnWallace10]

Yeah! That's a great chance to get the key, now rust is even closer :D

[snowmunster]

Selipro I've been trying to get a key for a long time but I can never get one at a low enough price to afford it so i was wondering if you could possibly put me on the list of people who want a key. :D

[SirScoots]

I would so sleep with you for a key Joe, is that something we can discuss?

[Slyfox]

I would also like a key
Im out of money but this game looks like so much fuuunnnnn, I wanna play so bad :(

[Cik]

Please dont turn this into a begging for a key thread.

You, uh... just asked everyone who wants a Rust key to spam the forum. I would definitely back off on this plan until you've cleared it with the moderators, especially since you disclosed your affiliation with Monster Energy.
