Post #1121Rust is a survival game and should stay a survival game.
As for what should replace zombies? I put forward a new idea.
How about real weather? and seasons?
Winter - With snow, rain and flooding ect. making food hard to get and animals more scarce. Now rivers/in land water are being implemented, this would add a whole new dimension to moving around the map.
Summer - Better weather. with more animals ect to hunt. and if they implement farming? this would fit in nicely.
I have to say i do like the idea that rust moves away from the M4, Mp5 ect into purely "junk" created weapons ect. possibly with the odd one or two modern guns being found in a bunker or hanger type scenario.

Maybe, but if I did not kill a creature, you have nothing on me like money. Whereas if they keep a money like dollars etc, everyone will necessarily him.
Edited:
Nothing prevents to have a realistic look, and have modern fantasy creatures!
The important thing is that there is not all the time, and that it does not cross its modern mythological creatures all the time! Meet a Bigfoot, a mohtman or other fantastic creatures should remain truly exceptional. And kill even more exceptional and unique! In fact, it would be like in real life, is that they exist is? yes, no? A player says he saw a UFO (or yeti etc) but no one else saw the. Maybe he's crazy? Or maybe not ...
-
Rust needs BitCoins.
-
Anyway this post is not about money but creatures. :p
And I say YES to more varied creatures!
-
The Rad Wolves and animals are doing fine. don't see why we have to change it

I think it would be cool for there to be some night time event that forces people to be inside, with some lingering dangers in daytime, particularly in darkness or far from more densely populated areas.
I think it would encourage teamwork by creating a common enemy. It would also discourage raiding in darkness. It could also encourage people to stick together, because the dangers of leaving the group are too great.
A possible idea would be a very large creature that comes from an ocean or flys in to an area. Beatable, but requires teamwork. It would also have smaller, minion like creatures that would flow off it, or emerge from around it and disperse to a certain distance to act as a buffer and also cause an annoyance to people living nearby. Maybe several sizes of these, some able to be out during the day.
Special events, such as eclipse or new moons, could trigger events. As well as dangers in caves, dense forests, or unlit buildings. Maybe creatures specific to each area, and special attributes applied depending on events.
creatures could drop materials to construct items, which you could pick up. Alternately, you could be presented with an option to learn something from the creature. Such as: how to craft an item, learn to craft quicker, learn to burn food less. Perhaps by consuming the creature, but you'd have some negative effects from it, like needing to consume medicine, or temporary insanity of some sort.
-
I think it will be cool if they add some other "normal" animals like snakes(not strong but poisonous), sharks (for water :) ) and eventually
Lion, panther, etc.. If the generated map has different zones (climate). This will be very nice :)
And if they want to have this mutant stuff then they should only add different versions of this animals like the red bear/wolfs.
Personally, I find the idea of mystical creatures or military not good.
Mystical creatures (or dinosaur) do not fit into the concept.
And military .... are these then also naked? Think it would be too weird if you start naked but the opponents are fully equipped and armed.
-
Because after 500, 600, 700 hours of play, we are bored to kill as radioactive wolves, bears radioactive ... And I like the diversity, especially for creatures that can kill you! A greater variety of creature gives more challenge and discovery!
Now, even if there is no mythological or exotic creature, that programmers already gives them a better AI! Wolf that wanders in packs, which act as true predators. But also, perhaps mini boss in their pack. A large black wolf, a huge bear, or a mutated creature between wolves and bears!
The creatures establish hunting techniques to kill players. Especially!! No wolf walk around with bear joyfully holding the legs ...
-
Making players afraid of the dark is a nice idea. It's a concept that works very well in The Forest and also 7 Days To Die.
Personally, as I've said a billion times already, I think they should have gone with cannibals (taking inspiration from Cormack McCarthy's book, 'The Road'), but The Forest got there first. So tough luck on that front.
Whatever the choice, I think it needs to be something with an element of 'horror' - i.e. something players should be 'afraid' of. I used to spend a lot of time wandering the outer reaches of the map, just for LULZ, and I never felt any sense of danger when doing so... the environment itself just isn't threatening.
So whatever the NPC monsters do end up being, my only request is that they're something I'd be inclined to run away from. And ideally screaming whilst I do so ;-)
And they don't need to drop loot. Other players, airdrops, crates, etc, fulfill that role just fine. The NPC monsters just need to function as being a credible threat. Something to wipe the smiles from the faces of players when they reach the top of the food chain, Kelvar armour and MP4s or not.
-
I totally agree with is that you say! In the end, regardless of the creature, as the atmosphere is well made, with an atmosphere of fear, which forces you to flee rather than fight!
To this I say BRAVO SKOL!
(After this is true, I personally like a lot of creature and discover fauna and flora varied. Where I tell myself. "THIN, WHAT IS THIS CREATURE HOW I DO FOR THE KILL HIM OR ESCAPE ? "
-
There is no option for bigger animals. Mutant Animals doesnt mean hippos and rhinos. Rhinos could be very string badass enemys like elephants.
-
Dinosaurs is winning! If Rust gets huge T-rex's, I will seriously purchase it (I haven't played it yet).
-
the most dangerous creatures! :p
-
What.
-
While I do like the idea of players being afraid of the dark, I feel that there should be more of an incentive to go out. Such as only certain creatures or resources appear at night. However, more dangers can appear at night. Like certain hostile animals only appear at night. Or the mutants get stronger and faster at night. What do you guys think?
-
Dinosaurs is similar to The Stomping land.
Either add Zombies back or go for military+robots.
-
sorry, I said that the Kukrapok. And the man bear pig enemies who would kill all players!
Edited:
I am more a mixture of several creatures in Rust, which each have their environment, their territories. Some creatures are necessarily smaller, as compared to others.
But above all, sequi would be really nice is that all creatures can attack each other. For example dinosaurs attack all creatures they encounter. The bigfoot, attacks deer, wild boar etc. Military, only players and creatures too prochent their camp. Mothman only creatures on their territory etc..
Edited:
other ideas modern mythical creatures.
-
Mythological creatures are really starting to grow on me because it could really benefit the game and be a fun experience.
-
alligators are dinosaurs

les alligators sont des descendants des dinosaures.
Quelques autres légendes moderne
Wendigo
Léviathan
Edited:
It is important to note that in the legend of the Wendigo, whoever eats Wendigo becomes a Wendigo. It would be fun if a player eat its meat or wears his skin, he is poisoned. If not cured if before dying, the player becomes a Wendigo (IA) and starts attacking other players.
-
How about all of them to some extent?
Edited:
I wouldn't know what to vote.. Robots are cool, Mutants are cool, Giants are cool, Aliens are cool..
-
Is what I said in my previous posts. You can put all to some extent, with their well-defined territories, and their line of code that are their own. (See earlier post)
Edited:
Another idea compared to a creature to what I thought. Still in the carnivorous plant. Plants that appear only at night and are slightly bright (dark green). Thus, they give a fairly mysterious atmosphere ... But they could also be very aggressive if they walked on. They could for example send electric shock!
I called Spinevolt! (Is not mine drawing , but the plant would be much like that.)

Stranded people / survivors.
They are always around but come out more at night and hunt. They'll hunt the wild animals, other players, anything they can find for food / supplies.
Being stuck on the island with all the background radiation has addled their minds. They can use basic tools / weapons such as hatchets and bows / arrows, as well as wear any clothing they find, but the more complex weapons / equipment confounds them. So they will loot basic items / food / clothing from players they kill, but leave guns and other more advanced items where they are.
They take up residence in shacks / structures without doors when they aren't out hunting, making taking over an empty shack more challenging. This version of the human survivor could also place traps around the map to catch animals / players. Adding an element of danger to the map during the day and keeping you on your toes. Also adds a real risk element to just sprinting anywhere and make the whole thing feel a bit more survivalist.
Pockets of more mutated / feral humans around the radioactive areas, these will only use melee weapons and will sprint at anyone they see come close and savage them. These survivors have a pack mentality and will call out to the pack when they see prey. The noise attracts other nearby Irradiated Survivors and they all join the hunt.
Each large pocket of Irradiated Humans could have one "Alpha" (A human that has been there so long that they have mutated grotesquely). This could be a much larger (giant-ish) disfigured human that would be a real bitch to take down so might take a few people to clear them. They also call out to a wider area, bringing more Irradiated Humans to the fight. But the loot the Alphas would protect would be of higher value than standard loot.
Just another idea to add to the many already on here. I quite like the idea that they could have domesticated / trained animals to work for them, and that the Irradiated Humans will have Rad Wolves with them too to add to the whole feral feel to it.

maybe keep the rad animals. and upgrade their AI. such as them using team work, getting more aggressive when cornened, and maybe make Shooting them attract more Rad Animals, so people have to think twice before gunning them down.
-
My opinion is the mutant animals are good we just need more of a variety of them and Zombies/mutant humans are just players that died from too much radiation or died at a radiation hotspot. It'll make looting the towns more exciting. Yeah I voted for bringing back zombies.
-
To be honest, I agree with this. Mutant military WOULD be pretty cool. Or Dinosaurs, that was also a good idea.
-
I believe that I have an excellent idea for what could be lurking in the woods at night. ONLY at night. As soon as night comes, a wendigo should be spawned in and will despawn at sunrise. If a player was to kill it, they have the chance to obtain an object of high value. It should be a hard-to-kill boss-type creature that spawns at night.
It could look like any of these:

This idea has already been proposed, creatures that apparaisent occasionally at night, or even event. (Den that opens releasing strange animals, UFO crashing and leaves, egg that hatched.) The idea is to offer a unique monster to kill per month. But we must first find and then kill a group.
The unlucky who falls on him alone ...
Edited:
In EVERY game, there is the traditional but still impressive GIANT CRAB!
And as a bonus the giant jellyfish, which could be very nice RUST.

I don't mean to be mean, but mutant military is boring as hell and has been done to death in sooo many other games. Military in general is just a tired, uninspiring concept.
Much of the creature design will, I assume, be determined by whatever 'lore' the developers decide to create around Rust. As far as I can tell, this can only really be one of two scenarios:
1) A post-apocalyptic Earth: either resulting from a devastating nuclear war (yawn, done that); some kind of virus outbreak (done that too); perhaps a tear in the 'fabric of reality' (akin to Doom) or another catastrophic event that turns our friendly old world into a place of barbaric savagery, nightmarish monsters and chicken-only diets (helluva trouble with constipation).
Or...
2) An alien world Perhaps a place where abuducted humans are dumped by aliens, once they've been anally-probed; or a planet on which a colony ship has crashed; or whatever.
The decision taken by the devs to explore primitive weapons and firearms suggests that the 'lore' will have some basis in reality (rather than pure fantasy, like say Skyrim), which means that it can really only be one of the two above scenarios.
At least that's how I see it.
The 'monsters' will surely just be created to fit within whichever context is decided upon.
But I damn well hope they're NOT military, because that would be a megatonne of suckage.

i really like this idea! this animals/monster is perfectily to radiations world, wendingo is great, not soo unrealistic... maibe have a bear like this wendingo too... likes in metro last lightI believe that I have an excellent idea for what could be lurking in the woods at night.

It could look like any of these:
and radiated rivers and sea have weird mutate animals...
some lakes have more radiations levels than others, and have a green color...
under water will be vary scary with weird animals hahahha
thats all
sorry, my English...
-
There may be many varied history. Humans can be placed on the islands, and only survivors are recovered later. Because they showed that they were a very enduring species, very suitable. Maybe an alien race causes human to survive a war elsewhere ...
-
If not already suggested, please make drop pilots mutated zombies. Maybe you can down the helicopter and release a dozen gun wielding zombies.
I want there to be a bit more variety to whatever most commonly occurring pve you encounter. E.I. zombie, red animal, mutant environment.... But I do not want variety to be occurring commonly.
-
For variety, should not be limited to zombies. A wider range of creature would be more fun and would be harder to kill because they all react differently.
-
Having dino's is probably the worst idea. Ever.
-
Animal and human mutants are best decision. There are too much zombies in games.
-
Whether zombies, military or dinos, in games we see them all the time. And perhaps too often.
This is why modern mythological creatures would be much more innovative in terms of game and hunting. After that, there could be a small part of the map where there are soldiers and zombies. Just a little.
-
What about the monsters of the Stone Age
some of them can be really scary
-
An MEGALODON easter egg like BF4? hahaha
-
Just imagine, you and your friends are cooking over the fireplace at night. When all of a sudden, off in the distance you hear rustling. Out of nowhere comes a group of CHIMPS!
Would be funny if they could crawl through windows and steal stuff out of your crates. lol
-
The problem is that Rust is a survival game, it does not need any more than Rust becomes Safarie ... This is why animals out of the ordinary or mythological would be more fun and less mundane .
