Surprise new Rust update transforms the survival game's stealth combat

Although they’re still arduous and white-knuckle, there are no other survival games, whether The Long Dark, The Forest, or Project Zomboid, that make you work like Rust does. It’s an epic journey. You begin with nothing - the first few hours, you're picking through the wilderness for sticks and rocks. But after enough time and sweat, you can scavenge, research, and craft even the most elaborate modern conveniences. After the transformative Jungle update from earlier this month, Facepunch has just made a less public but still-significant change to the survival shooter’s stealth combat.
