Rank is players over the last seven days. A big server showing offline while the rest are up is that server restarting or wiping, not Rust being down.

Test methodRG-400 · notes

The verdict is live. If the list is at 85% of the usual count for this hour or more, servers are up; below half is an outage. This is a direct reading of the public server list, refreshed every five minutes. Rust servers are up.

The numbers behind the verdict

  • Servers online: 11,839 (recorded in the latest list read).
  • Players connected: 94,570.
  • Expected for this hour: the median of the same hour over the last seven days. The verdict compares the two.
  • Last list read: shown under the verdict. It is normally within six minutes. Over twenty-five minutes, the page states the reading is behind and does not guess.

48-hour plots

The chart below plots 11,839 servers online and 94,570 players over the past 48 hours. Both lines are drawn from readings taken every five minutes. A normal day shows a low between 04:00 and 09:00 UTC and a peak around 19:00 UTC; any break in that pattern is marked. You can read the same history for any individual server on its page in the server list.

The largest servers

The ten servers carrying the most players at the last read are plotted below with their player counts. If the largest are at their usual level, the outage is not with Rust. If they are missing or flat, it is. Wipe days are marked with the time recorded on the server page.

If your game shows no servers

When the verdict is up but your browser is empty, the issue is between you and Steam. Restart Steam and Rust. Clear any region or tag filters. Check Steam's own status. On force wipe day, update Rust before retrying. A VPN or strict firewall can block the UDP traffic the browser uses. For a single missing server, its page records when it was last seen; see the server list.

What this page does not claim

It does not list a server as down unless the list omits it. It does not predict the next outage. It does not round a figure it has not measured. The last list read is the only timestamp it trusts; if that time is old, the page says so.

Questions

3 notes
01Are Rust servers down right now?

The verdict at the top is live and is based on a read of the full server list in the last five minutes. It compares 11,839 servers and 94,570 players with the median for this hour over seven days. At 85% of that median or more, servers are up; below half is an outage.

02Why does my game show no servers when this page says they are up?

Then the issue is on your side or with Steam, not with Rust. Restart Steam and Rust, clear your server browser filters, and check Steam's own status. On force wipe day, update the game before retrying.

03How fresh is this page?

The time under the verdict states when the list was last read, usually within six minutes. Past twenty-five minutes, the page tells you the reading is behind instead of presenting it as current.
