Recent wipes on this server averaged a peak of 398 players at their busiest. The latest wipe peaked 23 hours after it, with a queue of 229 more.
Nothing wipes [EU] Facepunch 1 but the force wipe, once a month. The force wipe on Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC is its next wipe, and every Rust server wipes then. 26 days 4 hours have passed since this world was generated. A monthly wipe schedule is published in its tags.
A playrust.com hostname is published by [EU] Facepunch 1 and by 124 other servers we track, so they most likely share an operator.

(Region code): The server sets no region code; ^m (Monthly): A single monthly wipe, set by Facepunch's force wipe; ^v (Vanilla): The rates, kits and rules are unchanged from what Facepunch ships; ^t (Tutorial on): Facepunch's tutorial is available here for new players; sc2 (Custom tag): A plugin or the owner set this tag; it is not standard Rust, which [EU] Facepunch 1 publishes. The current player count, the queue and the world's creation time also sit in the tags, shown at the top of this page.
