Post #1001
You know that zombies aren't real don't you? They were created by George A. Romero as a metaphor for the destructive and dehumanising effects of the mass-consumer culture, before becoming part of that same consumer culture as they are today.

How appropriate, that that's how it turned out.
-
And also how appropriate, that they have been removed from this game.
-
Read that book of Max brooks (i think that is the author)
-
Wait, are you saying Max Brooks invented zombies? Or that you actually believe that zombies are real?
The word Zombie is a respelling of a Haitian term, zonbi. This word comes from the Congolese word, nzambi, which basically means "soul". The people brought from the Congo to Haiti to work on plantations as slaves created the word to describe the pitiful state of existence they were forced to endure. So again, relating to the dehumanising effects of global mass consumption, further expanded upon by George A. Romero.

I would like to see a shadow creature. Something that roams only at night randomly shows up at any part of the land. So say it shows up at the north section. You may than be safe if your down in the south provided it doesn't make it near you by sunrise. That way their is a terrifying threat that doesn't take away a lot from the current focus of the game.
However, This could fit very well with the military idea if people wanted it to. This thing could be possessing the military on the land mass.
Other than that I like the dinosaur idea, thinking a failed Jurassic park thing, but this seems like a distracting idea.
Something is better than its current state though, having pvp be the only real threat sucks, I wasn't looking for a pvp centered game, part of it sure not its focus though. Even if it means simply having badass animals like crocodiles and such that can fuck you up, Farcry 3 had some pretty ridiculous animal threats.
Edit: The shadow creature could also work well with the tribal thing too.
Edit +: I could get even more crazy. Change the radiation to a Miasma, this way farming could be used to make medicine to resist it. Then the "military/tribal" people or whatever can be altered by this miasma instead of radiation.

I voted for Dinos but damn this would be epic to have giants like this as well :DWhy is nobody talking about Giants?? Guys just imagine how fucking awesome it would be to have Giants in groups sitting in their hide-outs in the mountains or whereever you may want them to be and protect their precious loot. See it as a kind of PVE gamestyle with passive giants that will attack you when you defend them. This combined with tribes of savage men with ritual tattoes over their bodies... It would be cool if they would behave more agressive and try to fight on sight to claim your skull.
So here, take some artwork.
Examples for "Forest Giants".
Examples for "Mountain Giants".
Or maybe more human-like Giants.
Maybe even Giants driven crazy from the radiation?
(BTW is there a way to add a spoiler so the images don't spam the site?)
-
Dinosaurs!!!
Would fit perfectly with the rust theme!
Would also make for a good story base!
Survivor got dropped by people on an inhabitable dinosaur island, could even add quests.
Please dont let this turn into a WarZ things with zombies and military(there are enough of those games out there already)
-
Why not a mix of them? You could have remote areas outside the map have dinosaurs that require 10+ players for killing one.
-
About User choice?
1) Conquest
Some town that can be conquered by users?
Something like radtown that can be occupied by the users nad most time they can maintain the position, better loot can be found into?
2) Kidnapping users possibility
-
Cyborgs! Since the replacement of zombies will be implemented, in the best case scenario, around the year 2060, cyborgs would blend perfectly with the era.

I voted for Giants/Mythical Creatures for something like this ^, besides the new upcoming survival game "The Stomping Land" is already developing what most of you people voted for and want...
-
It's cool but wouldn't fit in with the games weapons and overall feeling.
-
The game weapons and overall feeling will likely change quite a bit.
From what I've seen, giants and mythical creatures are what they're aiming for... I think.
It's definitely not military or dinosaurs, Garry basically said as much.
-
Double post, srry
-
This is the best idea :

Yeah i voted for Dinos but now i think that should be null and void, it would just come off as a copycat or unimaginative. I'm now thinking something like crazy cultist or the tribal people is the best idea.
-
The AI NEEEDDDSSS to be coded ALOT better, For example in DarkSouls2 the ai are stupid smart.
Maybe in rust have them wonder around in packs to kill people.
And maybe have them attack doors to scare people.
-
How the fuck do dinosaurs "fit in" with Rust?
-
Do you know what? The "Zombies" WERE actually mutant humans, people just called them zombies.
-
I would actually like military in the game although it will take a lot of work for getting the AI to work properly but it is a great way for making Rust a little more tactical and forcing people to work more in groups rather than as lone wolves.Maybe you could make them super strong and making so you could get guns from them but they are only in groups so they are harder to get guns from so if you wanna get a gun from them you have to kill the whole group so you can actually loot the body well that's just my opinion :)
-
no slendy. Slendy is over rated IMO
-
Giants and mythical creatures for sure. Not dinosaurs :(
-
dinosaurs!!!!!
A lot of little one and some giant, that's will be the best game ever!
i wanna eat a velociraptor's steak.
-
Giants would be sweet, that stone one imaged above reminds me of Shadow of the Colossus, I feel like something like those might fit into the theme of Rust. (Of course the theme may change so my comment is basically null :p)

Source, or it didn't happen

I've posted it in this thread a couple times already but here:
-
Zombie Dino?
Alien Dinosaur? Why the fuck not.
Military Mythical? you got it
Gorilla Men?
Rhino Men?
This....just don't have sex with it.
Or this cute little thing at night in the darkest part of your house.
-
Naked tribesmen.
-
What if you put "natives" or some kinda of post-apocaliptic tribes that actually have houses and loot inside them you can destroy them and they respawn or something along with some kinda of mutants dinosaurs that are actually like bosses but not in RPG sense theyre just superbig and hard to kill they often destroy houses so no one is safe but you can build "safer" houses

MYTHICAL CREATURES
Come on, it opens a huge variation of creatures from gigantic human eating titans that could smash through wooden walls, giants/trolls or something terrifying that could make us shit our pants at night, I want to be completely afraid of the darkness in the Rust world! (:
"I couldn't imagine walking in the pitchblack having glowing eyes staring at me from the distant, just imagine giants with these eyes?↑↑↑"

MUTANT Insects. Not silly human size or larger, but ones as big or as thick as your arm. Locust swarm that if it e velopes you drops a pile of bones behind. Super quick centipedes as long as you that take 25% health per bite. Fire ant hill as tall as your chest that do damage and poison you.
-
...I could actually dig a Planet of the Apes kind of scenario...Gorilla Men?
-
CANNIBALS!
...as per Cormac McCarthy's book, The Road.
-
Add nothing! Players are scary enaugh.
You coud add: weather changes,
more parts to build of,
more animals and premade cities with places to trade (even safe zones),
craftable wehicles,
caves or old underground bunkers,

Millitary makes more sence.
