    So I bought your game and was able to play briefly the first day, but have been waiting patiently to play since then; it looks like everybody else has access but me.. I tried searching to see if anyone else had this issue but to no success:

    Whenever I start the game, I cannot see ANY servers, the servers never populate in the 'play game' window. Refresh button doesn't even appear to work (it would probably be helpful to at least have a 'pressed' animation to see if the button is even working). Can't even bring up a console or log or anything like that...

    What is going on here?

    Edited:

    After looking in rust directories, I found this in the 'output_log' but, evidently, it is of no help;
    Code:
    Error! Couldn't refresh servers!!
    Yea... I can already see that. Thanks garry

    Edited:

    The problem was temporarily fixed from restarting steam, but the problem will return after an undetermined amount of time. Should never happen

    yep! getting this too D:
    still can't figure out how to fix it. restarting steam doesn't even work for me.

    Hey! Found the solution:

    Problem:
    Something to do with the link with Steam.
    When entering the console, you get the error: 'Error! Couldn't Refresh Servers!!', or whatever.
    In the console, when you try reconnecting (type 'net.reconnect'), you get the error: 'Connection Failed (no steam detected)

    Solution:
    Step 1: Launch the game directly from steam.

    That's it!
    I'm assuming you set up a shortcut or something to launch the game.
    All you have to do is open it through the steam client. Woo!
    Good luck :D

    I am assuming you've re-installed the game from steam? Restarted your computer, maybe even restarted your modem/router/internet?

    If this doesn't work try resetting your steam, I believe you delete everything from the Steam folder except the steam.exe (please google this, I can't remember tbh). You can still save your games! Only re-download steam itself.
