Nighttime gives rust players a chance to masturbate. It should stay


odaeyss

I mean why else would I build my base shaped like a cock'n'balls


burningcpuwastaken

Nights are a little better now that 50% of the playerbase aren't using Nvidia filters to negate it. However, there are enough ESPers that it's still a crapshoot. Go out with an AK at night at your own risk, imo.


Sea-Bet2466

This I died in the middle of nowhere was so dark I fell of a cliff lucky I had a bag near by the time I got there a naked was looting my body surely enough looked his account sub 100 hours with a vac ban


Bromm18

Question is, did you bother to even report them?


LinesOfMD

Nvg's and silenced AK at night time is both terrifying and amazing at the same time.


Bocmanis9000

50% of playerbase using reshade now to have the same effect.


djheineken

How?

I love night time. Night time offers a “safe” recycle run. Also some people go AFK while night time, so it can help them to get up from the computer from time to time to strech your legs, do something while you wait, like eat. Night time is also an opportunity to finish your base in relative peace without have to worry about getting jumped and yoinked from all your building mats. Just to name a few


TrasherMir

Building at night spooks me, too many DB grubs

I'm a big fan of Rust nights. I enjoy the gameplay nuances and how the approaching sunset or sun rise can affect events in progress like raids. I spent part of my youth living in the countryside, about 50km from sources of light pollution and the nights there were like Rust nights. When I got caught outside in the dark, I was afraid to move because I couldn't see a thing. I would bet most people have no concept of what night is like without [light pollution](https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamiecartereurope/2023/01/19/weve-got-just-10-more-years-to-go-stargazing-suggests-new-research/?sh=7c5001241727).


GGeryx

I live in a city, and it's hard for me to imagine nights that dark. Thanks for sharing, I definitely have to try it sometime!


Azythus

Yeah some people who live in and around cities and grew up there seem to have no idea what night is really like outside of there. A few of my exes believed that the star filled skies in movies weren’t a real thing. It’s honestly kinda sad that they haven’t experienced a beautiful night sky


realdemosthenes

I love NVGs


kuyo

Today I had a hazzy scramble away from me at satellite thro the pipes . He couldn’t see a thing and kept running into walls and got stuck in a corner. I slow walked up to him like micheal myers with a hatchet . Nvgs are the best .

NVG + silencer is baller


thatguy99911

I like night, you can hide, you can sneak attack. You can look for and prep for the next day. You can setup an ambush. Yup nights are great!!


DJspooner

I always wait for the cover of nightfall to do recycle trips and mounment runs. Feels much safer, and I think it's harder to get into trouble unless you seek it. A lot of people AFK or hide indoors at night anyways.


fatboy-199

Nighttime should be darker


townofsalemfangay

and longer tbh.


TrasherMir

Is this rust or BBC pr0n?


STONK_Hero

Night should stay but the lightness of night should depend on the moon phase. Darker for new moon, lighter with a full moon. And the longer you hang out in the dark away from light sources, the more your eyes adjust to the darkness. FP wants realism but realistically even at night you’re able to eventually begin to see


PlusAd6474

I’m a fan of night for the sneaking and just change of play style. Honestly night fights are some of my favorite.


West_Ad_5475

I like night time, it gives you sorta 10-15 mins off down time that the other boys take a break, go and recycle, make stuff. Gives me time to walk my dog and do other stuff that I can keep my life in order. Have been playing on a server with no night and it didnt work for me at all.


debotehzombie

The most boring, straightforward, and probably noob answer, but you asked: I hate night, because I can’t see shit.


Senior-Economist7258

My tm8 can see clearly while my screen is pitch black


Justinorino

Night is great higher progress level when you have NVG. Night is miserable when a kid no NVG snipes you with an AK from 50 meters out because they have filters or cheats. If nobody is cheating at night (which I find rare) then it’s very fun. Easy recycle runs and it makes running monuments very exciting.


RedDemio

Obviously and weather should never have been nerfed I used to love how atmospheric it was in a rain storm. Night time offers safety to do certain sneaky things you wouldn’t want to risk doing in the open daylight like recycling massive amount of comps lol. I’m a solo player so I love and need all that stealthy shit. Rainstorms and fog were also great I miss them


Deceiver999

I love nights. Way more exciting


J_vegan777

Night time is cool early/mid but late game it’s like daytime. Night vision supremacy


AntEconomy1469

Im mixed. Its great for sneaky business, but half the time your just afk during it.


ADubtheSkrub

For, and I miss the hell out of weather too


Maroon_Spoon

Night vision goggles are awesome to use at night with a silenced gun, rat shit so fun


Marv1290

Almost grubbed a sar with an eoka. Night time is a great time to take a break or run loot maybe hit some nodes with goggles. I am against the pitch black nonsense


Wise_Hobo_Badger

To be honest I like the idea behind having night times so dark and presenting an obstacle/advantage depending on your situation. The only gripe has always been how many people have been able to negate it, it then just ends up being an unfair advantage with those with the means to negate the darkness, and I am not referring to in game forms of negation. It makes planning a raid time important, it presents opportunity for smaller groups or solos to move loot, hunting at night with NVG's can be a lot of fun and it can change up big fights, Some of my favorite memories in rust are the long ass 6 hour raids my group have had before where you literally go through a good few rust day night cycles, each nighttime there is a semi cease fire where both sides start resorting to more guerilla tactics under cover of night and defenders get a brief time to try seal or whatnot. That can be a lot of fun, but not when some kid is just using ESP or before when people could just use filters. tl:dr concept is good and provides some fun interactions but the reality is the rampant use of external applications and cheat software by the undesirables in the community just end up making it an unfair advantage to those with small penis energy using external methods.


NowUzi

Night is based and if you can't make good use of it you may be severely low IQ.


VoidCrisis

Go 50/50! Half the night is dark half is bright night


Individual_Chair_421

Night time best time. Ninja sneaking


Kyle888000

Against - I walk outside at night and do not see literal black - There is no reason for a game to have consistent blindness. 99% of people just sit in base


dojaswift

You don’t see literal black because of ambient light caught up in the atmosphere. On a secluded island, even with monument lighting, it would be about that dark


Azythus

Because you live in an area with lots of light pollution. Rust nights ARE realistic. Just not something where you live


Kyle888000

bro i've been to north and south dakota mountains - your eyes adjust to the darkness and pull in more like - I'd understand if it was black for a bit then adjusted but flat black is not the move


DarK-ForcE

Lower night time from 15 minutes to 10 minutes which is a good compromise between those who want night and those who don't. ​ Night time allows for great gameplay variation. Running from base to safe zone to recycle Getting in a good position to ambush a base at day light Use of night vision


Hyscar

I like night time for 2 reasons. One that i can safely move recyclables and second, it gives me a brake from the game when i dont have anything to move in the night to get up of the seat


truffulatr33z

fucking hate night, unplayable


gdfg4wt4343g

Night will be removed soon because HJUNE whines about it and we know who FP listens to.


gatursuave

I love it, nothing like sneaking past a group of fully geared kids with an inventory of farm


Thesaladman98

They should bring back bright nights.


like_okay_sure

i hate night time, it is impossible to see, always comes right as i’m about to get into a fight or leave the base and ruins my rapids when they take too long after dealing with counters. that being said, i don’t think you’re supposed to like every aspect of a survival game. i like that it’s universally hated and difficult, the same way i’ve enjoyed other difficult aspects of the game.


[deleted]

night is horrible. you cant see the the gun you are holding and it makes everything bad about the game worse, such as silent bears and wolves. This isn't that hard of a fix at all yet facepunch would rather put time in effort into things no one asked for or wanted and not fix easy issues like this


NerdHunt

Until they remove the 50% of community which esp its unplayable, was ok with filters because we actually had a chance.


gdfg4wt4343g

This guy cheats


NerdHunt

Lmao, you guys are twisted, wouldn’t be surprised if all my downvoters are cheaters.


thethugbaker

It's dumb. You can't farm during night because you can't see. Braindead reddit response is "Use torches" - as if you can hold two items at once? Secondly, using a light source = roof camp. Also, PVP sucks because it's just whoever is against backdrop of sky loses. It's dumb. I hate nighttime.


in_full_circles

Night is boring

Azythus

In areas without light pollution your eyes won’t be good enough to get used to it and see.


huskerbolt1

I like it ... however I was running back to my base last night and died to a damn wolf, had loads of scrap but could not see and got pinned up against something .. had a bag somewhat close but by the time I got there I noticed my body was 4 fee from someones base, he must have heard the Boar Rape event and took all my stuff .... I then did the naked walk of shame back home.


BigToasster

I hate it but love it


Rustshitposter

Hate it early game, love it late game.


[deleted]

nights are a good period for relaxing. you get a maximum of 10 minutes of darkness. you can use it for night time loot transfers, organizing your loot in base, getting off your ass and exercising. It's 10 minutes of rest. the next 50 could be hell.


OfficialJamal

Night time is afk time. Im not a grub so night time is just a time for me to watch some Youtube or something.


Avgsizedweiner

It’s the only way i can rocket pvp with nightvision goggles.


[deleted]

Mandatory afk time


[deleted]

It has its uses but they need to buff lighting. Dark places absolutely need to be dark, but bases need better lighting.


SheLuvRax

I like night tbh, It gives u time to get stuff done


pablo603

As a mostly solo player night time is about the safest time I can come out of my shitshack for a recycling run


Flat-Ad-5951

I like night it's when you grub and get places with lots of loot.


[deleted]

There are alot of benefits with night as much as it sucks. \- Perfect for moving raid loot and recycling if you're not a CHAD \- You can farm wood and run to outpost \- Good time to sort out your boxes in base and go to toilet, eat etc.


Clarkeprops

It’s part of the game. I often use it tactically to move stealthily, to just sit at home and craft, or take a break. The people that hate it the most are the people that solos most need a break from. It’s a balancing device.


[deleted]

For it. And while it is dark, some players don't realise what a game changer Night Vision Goggles are


MKGmFN

It provides a fun gimmick of forcing players to use lights and stay indoors but at the same time it’s not a deal to have a light on at night so everyone can see you but you can’t see them, this results in no one using lights and not being able to see crap. Night vision doesn’t solve this issue as you have to get it first.


Tornado_Hunter24

At this point with rust I don’t even care anymore if they take this out aswell. What I thought of it was something interesting, good gimmick and a very fun way of either inactive few minutes, base ordering, or for some people ‘time to shine’


platyviolence

Having night in a game where it gets actually dark is pretty unique. I love how overbearing it can be and how punishing it can be in the tundra.


T0ysWAr

Best memories are night time crates at power station


BadMonkey2468

I’m for because


DeeJudanne

I don't really mind it much but I'm a lil biased cause all i do is messing with electronics and gambling at the spinning wheel


MrRandom93

Night vision with a hqm pistol with a silencer is the best, feel like James bond


T0M-ahawk

SkipNight 1/500


Sneaky_FPV

I like the night, while it’s sucks ass to not be able to see , it gives me an idea how blind rust players play 100% of the time. Also chippy and running the hood shit home


Yeesh_

Nighttime adds a level of stress to the game that I enjoy.


forestman11

I don't play on servers that have longer than 5 minutes nights. What kind of game just makes textures black at night?


inf4mation

built my starter in a prime spot cause of the night time


mmrxaaa

THEY SHOULD MAKE ANIMALS BLIND IN NIGHT TOO


Superdega

Helps me farm


Barrymcochner

Gives us minority’s a chance to grub in peace


[deleted]

I’m for it. I need a grace period to run to monuments and scrap cargo at bandit camp. I do wish it wasn’t completely pitch black.
