Connecting…

Steam should be opening now. Didn't work? Use the button below, or connect manually further down.

Open Steam & Connect

How this works

  • Steam opens first — then Rust launches and connects automatically.
  • Be patient — it can take a moment, especially on first launch.
  • One click is enough — clicking multiple times won't help.

Steam link not working? This usually means your browser isn't set up to open steam:// links, or Steam isn't installed on this device. Connect manually instead:

  1. Launch Rust
  2. Press F1 to open the console
  3. Paste the command above (copy button next to it) and press Enter

Player count history

Wipe timing behind this data is sometimes inferred rather than confirmed, so daily figures right around a wipe boundary can land on the wrong day. Accuracy improves over time as detection gets more precise.

Population persistence across recent wipes

Each line follows one wipe cycle from the moment it started, lined up by days since that wipe rather than by calendar date — so you can compare how well this server held onto its population after different resets, independent of when each one happened.

Frequently asked questions

What does "wipe" mean in Rust?

A wipe resets a server's map and usually player progress too — bases, resources, and blueprints, unless the server keeps blueprints through wipes (shown here as "No BP wipe"). Most servers wipe on a regular schedule, often weekly.

What does "force wipe" mean?

Facepunch pushes a mandatory update on the first Thursday of each month that requires every Rust server to wipe, regardless of its own schedule — a "force wipe," distinct from a server's regular map wipe.

How do I know when this server wipes?

The "Next wipe" time above is extracted from the server's own published schedule. "High confidence" means the server stated an explicit date or time; "Predicted" means it's estimated from the server's typical cadence and isn't guaranteed.

How do I connect to this server?

Copy the server address above, open Rust's in-game console with F1, and run client.connect followed by the address — or connect directly through Steam's server browser using the same address.
