RUST Devblog 81 Турель (Auto Turret)
Auto Turret
I’ve been working on an auto turret, which should help defend your base from offline raiders. As with everything we change or add, I’m sure there will be 50 reddit threads talking about how we’re a bunch of morons who fuck the game up and it’s ruined now and everyone is uninstalling. Let me give you some information to hopefully mitigate that response:
180 degree firing arc, back is vulnerable.
Short range, 20-30m.
Vulnerable to bullets, melee, explosions.
Needs to be loaded with ammunition.
Can only be crafted with parts found in the world/from events – not raw resources.
This is a long time coming and I really hope it improves raiding for defenders and attackers, as well as making offline raiding require a bit more thought. I hope it modifies how people decide to build bases, with corridors and overhangs, difficult places to attack turrets from, etc. Only time will tell though, and as with everything we add or change, nothing is set in stone and we will adjust it until it’s fun.
