A Second Chance for Metal Detectors in Rust - Now Loot Won't Go into the Sand Forever

? Metal detectors are back in the game with a vengeance

For a long time, metal detectors in Rust were more like a souvenir: an interesting, but not very useful thing. However, times are changing - the developers decided to breathe a second life into them.

? Loot goes underground, not into oblivion

According to the latest changes, weapons and backpacks will no longer simply disspawn after battles. Instead, they will **bury themselves in the ground** at the location where the player dies.

This means that now you can find hidden goods with a metal detector . Not just wander along the beach looking for nails, but actually dig up what was yesterday your favorite Kalashnikov!

? What does this change?

Players now have a chance to get back lost loot if they manage to return and use the metal detector correctly. Perhaps even ambushes will become more cunning - the enemy thinks you've left, and you're digging right under his nose ?
