On the heels of Facepunch Studios adding necks to s&box it has now also added milk to Rust. *️⃣
October's Rust update is here and it's bringing livestock—cows and sheep—and their various secretions, offal, and dander for all your crafting needs. The new animals produce the following:
There's an economy built around these new herbivores, so in addition to murdering them for resources you can also take your animals to a new Stable vendor and haggle over the price of sale. The same vendor will also buy the wool you harvest from sheep.
New fencing has been added so you can build a pen for your pals. Here's a rundown of some of the other new livestock features:
Good to finally have confirmation that cream is more powerful than milk. There's plenty of other stuff in Rust's October update but I think I covered the best of the stuff, plus it's a really long blog and I don't feel like reading the rest. Help yourself!
*️⃣"On the heels of Facepunch Studios adding necks to s&box it has now also added milk to Rust" is a really weird sentence. Is it the first time that sentence has ever been said?
Oddly enough, no!
After searching for a few hours through various newspaper archives, it seem the same sentence was spoken on July 12, 1967 by Idaho governor Don Samuelson while giving a speech at the dedication of Farragut State Park. He keeled over a moment later and would remain unconscious for three days, apparently the victim of an unexplained and, quite honestly, fairly useless transmission from the future.
As he lay there on the ground twitching and mumbling, the Idaho Falls Post-Register reported, he received some "light boos" from the crowd. ⬆️
Chris started playing PC games in the 1980s, started writing about them in the early 2000s, and (finally) started getting paid to write about them in the late 2000s. Following a few years as a regular freelancer, PC Gamer hired him in 2014, probably so he'd stop emailing them asking for more work. Chris has a love-hate relationship with survival games and an unhealthy fascination with the inner lives of NPCs. He's also a fan of offbeat simulation games, mods, and ignoring storylines in RPGs so he can make up his own.
