Frequently asked questions
Does a Rust PvE server always protect my base?
The PvE label alone does not tell you. Check building damage, theft, chest access and abandoned-base rules. Some rule sets allow PvP areas or events: read the exceptions before building.
Can I keep my progress without wipes on a PvE server?
PvE does not mean there are no resets. Read the official schedule and distinguish map wipes from blueprint wipes. Check whether rules change before a wipe, for example during an announced combat period.
How are servers listed and checked?
The selected sort determines the listing order. Online player counts come from status queries, without votes or paid ranking. The map shows an estimated connection IP country. Language filters use operator declarations, server settings and text, or information from the official website. The source is shown on the listing. Machine country does not determine the in-game language.
