Game Rust began to malfunction unexpectedly
Hey there, so I mostly play Rust on Steam and it’s been acting up lately. I need some advice on how to fix the system. Windows 11 64-bit AMD 5600 Corsair Vengance 4x8GB 3200 RAM setup includes an MSI 1060 3GB, 550W Gold+ cooler, and I usually use 40-50% CPU, full GPU usage, and 60-80% RAM. I can’t seem to get it to use more than 22GB of RAM. I’ve tried several tweaks:
- Changed launch options in Steam
- Adjusted memory settings
- Reinstalled the game
- Reinstalled Windows
- Reinstalled graphics drivers (using DDU)
- Updated BIOS before reinstalling OS
- Closed background apps like Discord, Chrome, etc.
- Posted crashdumps (though I haven’t done that since reinstalling)
Any tips or patterns you noticed?
I haven't played Rust in a while, though I follow Memeio on YouTube. He's demonstrated various glitches and exploits that lead to crashes. It's unclear if these problems are fixed yet, but FacePunch tends to address them quickly. Does your game stop when you join an empty server? Are there any interactions happening at the time of the crash?
