I Built a Fully Automated Island in Rust as a Solo

Today I'm going to be taking advantage of all of the new electrical features that we've been given in Rust including the new pipes and industrial crafting system! The plan is to take control of an island and then build a completely automated crafting system! Enjoy :)

Rust is never a game I could ever play and enjoy because of the community, but I'm surprised how many features it actually has. As a Satisfactory enthusiast, I can help but consider how cool it would be to set up an automated base and see how it would all work out! Fun content to watch.

[darylbert]

I love that he doesn't bully new players and helps them instead. Really cool base as well

[HeisenbergFam]

Props to Jordan for casually entering Rust with his own real body, the dedication and sanity to do that is hella impressive

[ACHV_MN]

You could add a low wall “drop ceiling” like a pancake layer to your base and run all the industrials through the ceiling. That’d be clean

Jordan: Chases everyone off the island
Also Jordan: "oh man no mail for me :("

Proper mad scientist vibes, tho'.

[Tranan]

This man trying to create Factorio in Rust, impressive as hell

[AlexCDT]

“it’s a lonely life being an islander” after evacuating everyone who sets foot on his island

[joeyhamilton]

I normally watch dayz videos, but this was the first rust video I’ve been able to watch all the way through. Im so impressed with how positive and non toxic you

[ConnorFlashwing]

I dip in and out of Rust every few months and it's always cool to come back and see what they've added to the game.

[chileo]

The dude who threw water on the drone without even knowing it was a game mechanic was 200 IQ lol

[immax]

Rust developers are on another level, this guys are amazing

[titanstudios]

One of my favorite parts is seeing how Jordan interacts with the new players. Maybe teaches lessons the hard way every now and then, but doesn't just kill new players to be a jerk

[antiwolfer]

39:18 you may not have known this but you just got incredibly lucky, you got a 1/250 spawn, a chair in the box

[Jaffa_C]

I like the fact that the dad is teaching the kid how to play the game and to be kind it makes me happy :)

[GerogeTheDestroyer]

Imagine raiding this and seeing all the wires and pipes I think I would just leave😂anyway we’ll done Jordan another great video from my rust inspiration keep it up! 👍

[jhonnyhotbodei]

this feels like a documentary and i love it
also listening to this at like 11:30(not a timestamp just the actual time rn) its really fun and calm. this definitely deserves a sub

[opinionpaladin]

Not a rust player myself. But this new camera thing is quite cool. Just the electrical and farming stuff is so interesting to an outside observer

[alpo]

I hadn't watched a Rust video in quite awhile, so hopping on and finding this was a treat. That piping system is amazing. I love that idea. Props to the dude who came up with the rocket crafting plan as well.

[LiamSmall]

I think it would be cool if you made a base with a pipe system to another base incase you get raided, you can transfer all the loot to the 2nd base

[DrummerJacob]

I like how you give players a chance sometimes. Thats how i wish this game always was. People always look back to the original days with good memories and one of the main reasons is people had some level of decency.

Great video concept. Keep it up! :)
