Facepunch Studios has released a new update for Rust, and players should be pretty happy with the results. The developer revealed that the game’s January 7th update will add new Twitch drops, a Blueprint wipe, server save backups, increased server capacity, and more. Additionally, the update includes a number of fixes, changes to the game’s weather patterns, and the disabling of the Christmas event. While some of these additions won’t be terribly exciting for players, they should be helpful for the overall game, and make for a better experience. A full change list straight from Facepunch Studios can be found below.
