    So, I opened Rust for the first time this week (Right after updating), and it won't launch. The PlayRust Configuration file opens up, and as soon as I click 'Play!' it closes and the generic Crash window pops up:


    Has this happened to someone before? How do I fix it? I've tried several times to open it.

    [EDIT] Currently trying to reinstall rust.

    Edited:

    OK, so I reinstalled the game and it still doesn't work.

    Exact same thing is happening to me. If you use -force-d3d11 as a launch option for it in steam it will work. but its not a great fix lots of lag.

    Try going to properties, click the beta tab and choose Dev - Live developer branch, under select the beta you would like to opt into. It'll give you an update of about 13mb. After doing this and verifying the cache, it launched for me.
