specs aren't that flash, but try clearing verify of your game cache.

If that fails, delete the config file SteamApps\common\Rust\Cfg

2GB of RAM is below the minimum system requirements listed on the Steam store page. The minimum is 4GB.

Also, make sure your video drivers are up to date. But definitely see about adding more RAM to your computer. It should be fairly cheap.

Your computer is 5+ years out of date. If it can be upgraded,you should look into doing so and you are able to do so.

His computer doesn't seem to be the problem here. I had the same problem, you need to verify your game files. In Steam, go to the library (the list of your games), tight click on Rust, go to properties (the last one in the list), in local files (third tab) chose verify integrity of game cache (last button). It takes a few minutes during which Steam may freeze, after that restart Steam and you're good to go.

Rust is also not optimized compared to finished, released, "good" games. You're comparing an alpha to something that's been through a QA cycle and a public release.

also, people are finding that 8gb of ram is needed to run well, regardless of the min specs posted on steam.

I run with 16gb ram 8x 3.5ghz and a geforce gtx 750 TI (Msi) and i got laggspikes when changing scenery so im 100% sure your pc will not be able to run rust properly.
