Raft meets Rust?

[Rubiks-Q-Bert]

I haven't bought this yet as I was wanting some opinions on it but from what I can see in the video, it basically looks like Raft meets Rust? How far off is that?

As a fan of both Rust and Raft, I'd say it's more like Rust, less like Raft.
Really, the only similarities it shares with Raft is....the post apocalyptic ocean scenario, sharks, and diving for some loot.
That's it, really.

It's far more like Rust in crafting and combat.
I'd call it more like Rust meets Stranded Deep. It has far more in common with those two games than Raft.

No Raft No Rust. Its Waterworld !

dont buy it now. wait till they fix it!

I never played Rust. I'm not huge on PVP and that game to me was pitched towards PVPing. I like Raft. I didn't like how fast the player vs time worked but overall it was decent game.

Seriously? They could fix every problem now and in the next update more bugs will appear.
How long would you be prepared to wait till it's fixed, a year? or 2 or 3?

It's what EA games are. You have to expect and live with the continuous bugs or don't bother buying.

Rust has been out for almost 10 years. Still has bugs here and there. No game is ever completely bug free. So how long should I wait...

While I agree with the first part, what does EA have to do with this game? Or is that just an example?

I do some PvP but there are actually a ton of PvE Rust servers. I played Raft quite a bit and thought it was a bit to short story wise but having played both, what kind of caught my attention when this game came across my feed.

Agreed on Raft being short. It also seems like they short changed some of the story elements to get the game completed. That's how it feels anyways.

Comparable to raft, but with way more potential for a good game.
raft was short and rather linear this game has the potential for so much more.
and no I'm not talking about PVP.

Raft has the potential to be a lot more. They opted not to follow through.

Sorry what i meant by that was the combat in sunken lands.
it opens up a lot more fun than just building a raft.
I don't think raft could go any farther than it has.

I also believe the world is more interesting in sunken lands, but this is just IMO.

[Mr Tree Frog]

yea, I started tearing Raft apart after the newness wore off. After that I couldn't go back. Having a programmers mind sometimes makes it hard to enjoy certain games.

Clearly have no clue about EA games do you? Might I suggest you stay clear and just pay premium prices for AAA games......oh wait, these days most of them release in a worse state than EA games. At least EA is open and honest in the fact the games are work in progress.
