Step 1: Pick The Server Closest To You

Latency Matters In Rust, Especially In Fights, We Run One Server In Each Of Three Regions, So Choose The One Nearest To Where You Live, All Of Them Wipe Once A Week And Run The Same Random Items Rules, So You Are Not Giving Anything Up By Picking The Closest

MM5-1United StatesWeekly
MM7-1Oceania And AustraliaWeekly

You Can See The Live Player Count, Queue Length And Next Wipe Time For Every Server On The Servers Page

Step 2: Find The Server In Rust Console

Start Rust On Your PlayStation Or Xbox, Open The Community Servers List And Search For The Server Name, For Example Metal Mayhem MM2-1, Select It And Join, If The Server Is Full You Will Be Placed In A Queue And Your Position Is Shown On Screen, Servers Are Busiest In The Evening In Their Own Region And Right After A Wipe

Step 3: Join The Discord

Our Discord Server Is Where Linking, Support Tickets, Raid Alerts And Giveaways All Happen, So Join It Before You Play For Long, You Can Use The Invite At discord.gg/metal-mayhem, Read The Rules Channel First, The Same Rules Are Published On Our Server Rules Page

Step 4: Link Your Account

Linking Connects Your Discord Account To Your In-game Gamertag, It Is What Lets The Network Track Your Kills, Currency, Kit History And Leaderboard Stats, And It Is Required For VIP And ZORP Offline Raid Protection, It Takes About Thirty Seconds

  1. Be In Game On One Of Our Servers
  2. Open The Linking Channel In The Discord, Or Go To The Link Page On This Website, And Enter Your Gamertag
  3. Within 60 Seconds, Use The Hello Emote In Game (Quick Chat, Then Responses, Then Hello), This Proves The Account Is Yours
  4. Once It Confirms, Your Stats Start Syncing Automatically
Link Before You Buy Anything, VIP And ZORP Only Work On A Linked Account, And Linking Later Is Easy But Buying First Can Leave You Waiting On Support

Step 5: Claim Your Free Kits

Our Servers Use A Phrase Based Kit System, Type An Exact Phrase Into Global Chat In Game And The Bot Delivers The Item Straight To Your Inventory, Different Phrases Have Different Cooldowns, From Ten Minutes To A Day, The Full List Of Phrases, With The Item Each One Gives, Is In The New Player Guide, If You Ever Want Every Kit Cooldown Cleared At Once, The /vote Command Resets Them

Useful Commands To Learn Early

  • /daily Claims Between 1,000 And 20,000 Currency Once A Day
  • /bal Shows Your Balance, And /stats Shows Your Own Stats
  • /pop Shows The Live Player Count And /map Shows The Current Map
  • /hours Shows How Long You Have Played On The Server

When Do The Servers Restart?

Servers Restart Twice A Day And Are Normally Back Online Within Fifteen Minutes, Times Are In UTC
