Rust July ForceWipe: What Could Be Added?

Rust’s July update is set to go live on July 4th at 7 PM BST. This update promises exciting new features and improvements. Here’s a sneak peek at what might be added based on the latest developments.

Traveling Vendor

A new traveling vendor, styled like an ice cream truck, will roam the map, offering weapons, explosives, and resources. Guarded by peacekeeping turrets, this mobile shop can be tracked via the in-game map. Items and prices will vary dynamically based on demand.

Diver Propulsion Vehicle (DPV)

The DPV is a single-person water vehicle, powered by Low Grade Fuel. It offers easy deployment and retrieval, perfect for underwater exploration and surface skimming.

Bikes

Four types of bikes are being tested, including pedal-powered bicycles and motorbikes, with solo and two-person variants. These bikes spawn randomly around roads and monuments, offering new ways to traverse the terrain.

New Gestures

New gestures are being implemented, allowing for different pages on the gesture wheel. These may be available by default or as part of a DLC.

Hood and Cuffs

The Hood and Cuffs items are in testing. Hoods obscure vision and prevent map use, while cuffs limit mounting and allow prisoner inventory inspection.

Frontier Hazmat

A new Frontier-style Hazmat suit is in development, adding to the Hazmat DLC collection.

Other Updates

Additional improvements include work on the Radtown Redux, enhancements to the demo recorder UI, optimizations for wire slacking, and more.

Conclusion

July’s update for Rust looks promising, with new features like the traveling vendor, DPV, bikes, and gestures enhancing the gameplay experience. Keep an eye out for these exciting additions and more as the update approaches.
