Are external walls useless now?

[Mutaracha]

As i heard, now you can build and get into any base even if there is a cupboard in your building range. So, what are external walls now for? Are they useless? Anyone can get in and out easily.

[Axisbold3r]

yup. welcome to the new update. people can twig up your base and hang with you, hop in, have a soda, then kill you.

What a foolish update then... So now external walls lost any sense.

yes. people can just twig into your base. open roofs are gone, now you have to close in your base, and when you want to expand, you have to c4 out the roof. sucks. im done playing the game for now. just not fun when anyone with a few hundred wood can come sit with me on my roof.

I haven't had a problem, i am a solo player, so i dont need a lot of building space, but for groups its hard. easy solution, put barricades on roof, what else you using blades for?

Yeah, this is the reason that pushed me away from playing this game again.

this may work on low pop boring servers, but i like the activity of a high pop. and with this many nakeds and others around, its a mess of people twigging all day and me running around to break it off, and getting ganked in the process.

sounds hillarious

Completely useless, yup. Rust is bust and will be left in the dust.

How dumb do you have to be to think of such travesty?

Forgotten scenarios where external walls are useful:

1. Pvp nonsense;
2. Prevention of ladder building on the side of your base.

You have to be narrow-minded to think of only one (1) scenario, which is:

Compounds and enclosures (same thing, really).


I will still continue to use external walls and will completely ignore their "uselessness".

Nobody has forgotten this it's fairly common sense. It doesn't stop someone from building up and dropping a lader or twig tile on the wall anyways. if you're knowledgable of the game, you know how to bypass those scenarios thus making your ladder theory pointless. As for PvP, that is the only use left for them honestly, but realistically people will use HEWWs over HESWs.

>Nobody has forgotten this it's fairly common sense

The title of the thread suggests otherwise.

>It doesn't stop someone from building up and dropping a ladder or twig tile on the wall anyways

Yes, it doesn't, but some base designs won't let you do that. Saw this one base where it utilised externals and wood signs on ovehangs to prevent you from building ladders. You just have to be clever with the new update, that's all.

> if you're knowledgable of the game, you know how to bypass those scenarios thus making your ladder theory pointless

You can bypass anything. No loot room is safe.

>As for PvP, that is the only use left for them honestly, but realistically people will use HEWWs over HESWs

They can use whatever suits them, really.


I am not the biggest fan of the update, nor do i play Rust vanilla. I strictly play on a battlefield server with my friend. Only played 30 minutes of the new update, so i didn't really adapt to it.

Hahah, my friend, i think the dumb one is you. You didn't understand anything about my message. Next time, try to think first and then write a nonsense answer.

Bye bye.

Look over the insults and you will find the answers to your questions.

Why the insults though? Here's the reasons:

1. These kinds of threads are annoying;
2. You asking a dumb question in the title (of course they are still useful)
3. Because i can.

Tune in next week to see me say that big furnaces and oil refineries are not useless in 3 easy scenarios.

It would be cool to see high externals play a part in build blocking. If the developers made high external walls/gates block building on one side, then large furnaces, oil refineries, etc would be protected on the opposite side. This is just a simple idea to fix a big "problem."

Yeah, they should give external walls more importance. They can't leave them like this...
