I Played Vanilla Rust with a new solo strategy... 

ay

Willie J the legend

Brother wallaaahi i love you and your videos ❤

WillyJ my guy your the best man ay you never fail to put a smile on my face

Yes

i forgot i had it 😭

It's alright the amount of high qual that comes from metal detector compensates for it 😆@@Willjum

put the spliff down willy!Heh ^^@@Willjum

yeah i knew u had forgotten about it in tunnels

It would make more sense if the extra storage seamlessly extended the inventory space, instead of requiring a separate view to be opened. But maybe this is "realism" - that you'd need to slip a backpack off your back to interact with the contents. Then again, you'd always be aware of the thing on your back in reality - that is not a sensation you'd "forget". On the other hand, carrying a tool cupboard, workbench, refinery, or windturbine, about your person is hardly realistic either.

Well done😂

It's not fixable.

Unless it’s a strategy that can’t be fixed, it’s the bug that will

The goat

Fell so bad for Rust, gettin broken all the time 🤣🤣

lol

HA i did not catch it the first time!

Its his brain breaking down after too many 1k pop servers

Bro this is shit i tried and it's a waste of time yes its safe but its a waste of time.. you are better of running roads, doing DOME or out in the water or just dont play on high pop servers . People, don't do what this guy is doing he does it for content, but it's not practical what he does if you play rust in order to survive the whole wipe - first trick is not to go on absurdly high pop servers especially official where everybody is cheating - second only play solo servers if you are solo - and third metal detector is a waste of time

​@@tanelviil9149I mean he does say it himself that it's not about how fast it is and how good the loot is, it's about how safe it is to do. + Ofc he's doing it cuz it's new content, he's a RU-vidr and u clicked on his video lol

@@tanelviil9149Are you going to reply to *every* comment with that? This is the third or fourth time I’ve seen you saying the same thing. If you don’t want to play the game, then don’t play the game. You don’t have to go to every comment like a door-to-door preacher trying to get everyone else to see your viewpoint.

Hi willyJ

Editing mistakes are like easter eggs

Lol

Just seemed like foreshadowing to me lol

I thought it was some foreshadowing when you said you were about to get killed 😅

The key if you start playing it is probably avoid the console version and learn the pc version from a friend or someone with alot more hours.

same here, for some reason I just enjoy watching ppl playing rust but never really got time to play it

​@@jhonnyenriquez7823 it's because vanilla is fun but takes so much time investment or luck to have a good wipe

That shit is so real

Bro. Exactly the same for me.

thanks I've been looking through the music tags in his channels for that song, and lets say its not been a fun affair.

I am not very experienced in rust but been watching WIlljum vids for a long time, what are all those structures outside of the zerg base? All the triangle rooms on top of one frame and foundation? I was curious and looking for a comment about this fight. Is that just a million external TC's or what? I loved watching this segment as well.

@@josiejams9018outter tcs with ladder hatches I believe

@@piercemccauley7079 Gotcha. I spent some time doing my own research on it and saw that a lot of times people create them so that raiders do not have cover behind outer TC structures. They are technically weaker to softside but for large groups worth the cost is what I read.

Same here I love the game but it hates me

You are not alone

It’s bc it wipes every week so they get content and can edit

i never played rust and i can just Enjoy xD

DO you know what the song is called?

​@@Duhlirium Clean as you go :)

i will dabble in other content, but willj is my only subscribe.

I love willj’s content but you must be new to rust content creators… have you even watched any of Frost’s content? (His recent content is iight but a year or two ago the man was making Rust content with, legit, might sound goofy but it’s that good, Hollywood/theatre level editing & stories) I’m sure willj would agree he’s the GOAT but the video with willj frost blooprint & hjune was EPICCCC… each of the four had their own version from their POV I highly suggest watching all of them :) here’s willj’s: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eNBiQ9CZXnc.htmlsi=_03YxJmD2wsIQ58n

@@UnExile I'm not new lmfao🤣 I've watched them all but everyone has their opinion. Frost is alright to but will j is still my favorite.

same im not subbed to any other rust youtuber cos willjum is the best one@@timq6224

me 3 because me 2 is taken

Such great pain and sorrow for a Willjum video

I hope you are feeling better, I’m sorry you are so sick

word of advice: don't buy the game if you enjoy this aesthetic. willjum is incredibly good at the game, most rustubers are, and they make it look easy. Most of the time you experience will be: spawn in > start farming anything > get maybe enough for a TC > get oneshot or just sprayed down before you can react by a fullkit AK when you're literally just a naked with 2k wood and a stone hatchet. repeat 10 times before you are able to place the TC. the good moments are great, of course, winning a fight feels incredibly good and once you start getting better you win more, but the first 400 hours are just naked hell with no escape except pushing through. it does sour the experience of watching these videos at lot, seeing the guy just winning. he deserves it of course, but you wouldn't win against the tunnel rats, and the past hour is just gone to some kid with a pump shotgun.

@@Themoonisachees that's why I'm on RU-vid and not in Rust haha

Wth, Willie you should address this. That snap at 19:08 was very sus man

thought the same

​@@ALuhRickMaybe some editing idk tho

Looks like he wiffs the snap a bit and had to readjust. The angles in the tunnels never change. Its like flicking on Dust 2 in CS. You swing to where you know the angle is your brain after so long just knows exactly where to move to.

brother that was a cut, you can clearly notice changes in his life and stuff@@ALuhRick

@@slluxxx Thank you so much!

I think the implication was that the Outpost meta is too powerful compared to the other methods of play, (ie. farming, building, etc). If you can buy guns day 2 of wipe, then the "survival" style of play just becomes irrelevant if you want to keep up with the overall server's peak level of progression. Survival-style play seems to only be more efficient at the very beginning of wipe. Once the player shops start opening, the most efficient strategy becomes "buy things at Outpost". Even moreso now with the metal detector, which gives you tradable/sellable items for free.

@@michaels.3709Yes, right. Then again, what’s the “end game” in an official, vanilla server? Some play to reach AK, and that’s what they do, one way or the other. Others want to raid, and although you can do it also thanks to purchases from Outpost, it’s then up to you to manage it and actually win the raid, right? It’s also a matter of adapting to what the game has to offer. Sure Outpost is safe and powerful, but then what about all the roof campers just outside of Outpost? Isn’t that a more serious threat than Outpost perks themselves? Thing is: whenever parts of the game are nerfed, it means forcing players to behave otherwise. On the other hand, having more possibilities enhances the chances of playing with our own style :) just an opinion

@@yulaiho43 I get that whatever a game offers should, at the end of the day, be fun. Whether it's grinding for an AK or buying one from outpost to do a few hours of raids, it should be the player's choice. To be clear, I've never played Rust. I've only seen it played, so there's a good chance I've missed something. But, from what I understand, I think some game mechanics work against each other here. If someone wanted to jump into a server and grind an AK full-kit from scratch (ie. play through the crafting and research progression), it'll be a very different play experience on wipe-day than on day 2 or beyond. Once the majority of the server has AKs, that's the dominant meta and anyone without one essentially is playing a stealth game, (or gets to build out in the middle of nowhere). Without Outpost, you'd need to get an AK from a player via pvp, get lucky enough to find one, or get far enough along the game progression to make one. That would slow down the rate at which AKs entered the hands of average players (ie. those who aren't on 24/7 from the start of wipe for the grind, or can't 1v1 an AK geared player with a crossbow and a dream). But with players able to buy AKs at outpost, essentially anyone with scrap can get one. This speeds up the server-wide adoption of the AK ("endgame") meta. If this happens within *a day or two*, then your server is "over" within a day or two, since actual crafting/research progression is considerably more expensive than just buying. Sure, you can still go out and grind for the endgame, but you can't grub for resources with prim weapons when half the server is running AK full-kits. It's just not the same game. Now the metal detector makes it so you can get AK without even leaving the safe zone, which feels like it will only speed-up the AK meta adoption further. I don't know the economy on a typical official Rust server to say for sure, but it almost feels like, unless you join minutes after wipe, the new, best strat is just: 1) go to outpost, 2) get a metal detector, 3) get AK full-kit. Even if you want to work on other progression, this has to happen first in order to defend yourself from other players. This just feels like... not much of the game is left after a day or two from wipe. It just becomes a PvP FFA FPS with crafting and base-building elements. Again, just an outsider's opinion. But from a game design standpoint, it feels like it's making the expiration on the crafting/progression on each server even shorter. tl;dr - Metal detector makes getting AK easier, so everyone has AKs faster, which means everyone needs AKs faster as an entry to play.

@@michaels.3709thank you for your detailed answer! My perspective is the one of a “good Rust player wannabe”: I play the game and I have fun, but in my own way. I suck at PvP, so Outpost and the metal detector give me a chance to get an AK. Which is kind of useless, as I’d lose it quickly by dying during a PvP skirmish :) but it’s fine, at least I would have got one and tried to use it. And in the process, by maybe buying it at Outpost, I would have “helped” the economy of that server; and helped a player (good at PvP) getting one from my corpse. Sure, if I spent some time safely “grinding” scrap in the Safe Zone, got an AK, and got killed by a roof camper just outside of Outpost, I wouldn’t be too happy :)

@@yulaiho43 Thanks for your perspective as well! It's always great to see some well thought-out replies! I think I see your point now. I don't really play FPS games, and so I'd probably be happily grinding right there with you in Outpost if I were to ever play. Usually I play solo crafting/survival or resource management games, and those usually have some kind of exploration aspect to them where it's actively advantageous to explore the map and build your base/bases in unique areas. To have a game where you have such an interesting game progression and aesthetic, while also having some admittedly pretty powerful automation options (with the pipes and furnaces), essentially "happen" right around Outpost, and reach "peak progression" with 24-48 hours makes it feel like there's a lot of space for improvement. "Revy fights between solo farmers mining sulfur for an auto-sachel shop" is a thing that's only going to happen on, or shortly after, wipe day. Either because by that point they will both be AK, some huge clan already has sachels on the shop by then, or both solos stopped playing once the AK full-kit clans pushed them off the server. You can confirm or deny if this is the case, but it really feels like the experience of playing on official servers get pretty "same-y" really quickly. And I think the presence of Outpost and now the metal detector probably only makes the "sameness" happen faster. Maybe I'm wrong and it *is* possible to play on official Rust, several days after wipe, and have a unique play experience as a solo or a part of a small crew. But to me it really feels like you need to be part of a huge clan to play in interesting (and likely non-optimal) ways, or you need to me happy restricting your play to just grinding in/near safezones or only playing on the fringes of the map away from monuments. Either that, or only play right after wipe.

Inspirement indeed 😂😂

me too i wish someone would start putting up a playlist for all the tunes as im loving every single tune he sticks on
