🛡 OFFLINE RAID PROTECTION

12-HOUR OFFLINE PROTECTION

Rusty Cage uses offline raid protection to give players a reasonable opportunity to maintain their bases without being online around the clock.

When the last member of a team disconnects, their eligible base receives up to 12 hours of offline raid protection.

Once protection expires, the base becomes vulnerable to offline raiding.

Offline protection settings may be adjusted based on community feedback and voting.

📦 LOOT & PROGRESSION

BETTER LOOT. BALANCED GAMEPLAY.

Rusty Cage features an improved loot system designed to reduce unnecessary grinding while maintaining the survival experience.

Useful Loot: Increased quantities of scrap, components, resources, ammunition, and medical supplies.

Weapons: Vanilla weapon drop rates to preserve balanced progression.

Junk Items: Unwanted filler items are reduced or removed from loot containers.

Crafting: Quality-of-life crafting adjustments help reduce unnecessary waiting.

Resource Economy: Sulfur and industrial extractors remain at vanilla rates to maintain raid balance.

FASTER PROGRESSION WITHOUT TURNING RUST INTO EASY MODE.
