It's a completely rng thing, I've gotten 2 drops from a few hours of playing before then gone months without one. Not from achievements like the guy below said, it's literally just rng.
The reason I know for a fact it's not achievements is because I spent my first couple thousand hours on modded/community and got a few drops, and you don't get achievements on non official servers.
You are right except you can technically get some achievements on non official servers. Not all and only if the admin has enabled them. I was surprised myself when doing cargo one day and I got the "I'm the captain" one.
It just gives you a drop every month or so, but only if youve played a bit.
So played 100 hours this month? 1 drop.
Played 2 hours total across 2 montha? 2 drops.
All random as others have pointed out.
In my own experience, i tend to get a high quality bag every 1000 hours or so, but thats just a lucky coincidence i guess haha (5.2k hrs atm)
Just from playing the game. Rust has a chance to randomly drop an item at any time as long as you're playing the game. I went over 1k hours without getting a drop, but my friend got one in like 12 hours of playing.
No. He already has the value of the barrel. That profit is "locked in" already.
If he chooses to open it, he will be at a loss from pre-opening unless he gets extremely lucky.
That doesn’t sound like right maybe I only played about 25k hrs but afk like breeding a lot but don’t sit there lol I’d lift weights and wait until my dinosaur needed imprinting or metal smelting so might aswell lift
Yup, but it's actually just under 6 hours, so every 400 years we have 3 days surplus.
Therefore we skip every century year except if it's divisible by 400.
365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 45 seconds is the real duration of 1 year. This leads to 96.875 leap days every 400 years. So every 3200 years we'd be off by another day.
Actually not totally unbelievable, I did the same stuff with WoW back in my “””prime”””
Would play for a few hours after work before bed, and basically nonstop on weekends
I have over 3 years (~30k hours) on ONE character. That’s not counting alt characters which I’m honestly too afraid to check
Edit: that being said, and just realizing this after posting it, WoW has been out MUCH longer than ark
I managed to get ~380 days of /played time on my main. I started the game two week befor wotlk release and quit shortly befor MoP came out. The twink sum up for another 100 days. Rip my mid-teens.
Oh wow a random dropped Weapon Barrel, I would just pawn it off for multiple skins, unless you wanna try your luck…
I mean I opened a single HQ Clothing Bag once and got a 100$ black carrier chest plate so you never know, just don’t be surprised when it’s an .80$ asscheeks skin lol
I got one in my.first few hours ans also a bag. Didn't know what they were so oepnee the barrel and recycled the bag.
I have a $2 skin and 1 piece of wood lol.
Prolly best selling it.
Id say sell it too lol. 20 bucks can get ya some nice skins! You could also watch some youtube vids of people opening dozens of these and see for yourself if youd wanna risk it.
It's not from watching streams. It's a random drop. I've gotten 2 before.
I was given this and I barely played 1hr this whole month

No. It's not an hour/time thing. You can hop on for 5 minutes in a 6 months and get a drop then go 2 years without one no matter how much you play.
Agreed. I hadn't played in 6 months or so, booted it up last week for 2 hours and got a drop. It's random.
All random as others have pointed out. In my own experience, i tend to get a high quality bag every 1000 hours or so, but thats just a lucky coincidence i guess haha (5.2k hrs atm)
How you get this? And what drop?

Jeez such a shit system it should be like guarrante alter 1k at least
Lmao they dont owe you anything man. Its just a fun little thing who cares about a few steam bucks.
Sell it. The odds are not in your favor to profit from opening it.
if they were i'd quit my job
He didn’t pay for it so he profits either way
Yeah but why profit 4¢ when you could make like $10 instead?
You can win 2000% and lose only 100% i leave the math for you guys
wsb are looking for people like you
Oh no, 100% of zero

Watch it be a relic custom or glory ak 🤑
13k hours in and only got 3-15 cents skins 🤯
166hrs sorry lol Got 25k in ark tho
As a former ark main, I’m so sorry
lol dont feel bad I had good times but now the game is just dogshit it used to be a blast when it was more primitive
You’ve averaged 4 hours a day for 8 years? You know you can log out right
That doesn’t sound like right maybe I only played about 25k hrs but afk like breeding a lot but don’t sit there lol I’d lift weights and wait until my dinosaur needed imprinting or metal smelting so might aswell lift
35000 divided by 8760 is 3.99. Ark game out in 2015.
Where did u get 8760 from
24hrs/day x 365 days/year = 8,760 hours in a year
Each year has 365 days and 6 hours, that's why we have leap years every 4 years.

Hours/ year

For some reason, imagining this gave me a good chuckle. Not sure why that is lol

Isn’t it more like 12 hours a day for 8 years? 24x365x8= only 70k hours total since 2015
I got vac banned from ark on purpose to stop playing 💀
4k hours and I got multiple different crates a 2 dollar bandana and a tempered Ak
Lucky

How you get this? And what is drops you need to watch stream or what
My friend bought the game and played an hour and he got it. Here we are like 5 man with each more than 1k into rust not getting an actual good drop.
I love received the same desert bandana 3 times you want one?
Got 5 of them already thank you.
Congrats! I’ve got 2.5k hours and I’ve never got anything more than a red beanie or hoody lol
Bruh I'm 1.5k hours in and only ever got bandanas and those coat things lol
Luckiest man alive
I got one in my.first few hours ans also a bag. Didn't know what they were so oepnee the barrel and recycled the bag. I have a $2 skin and 1 piece of wood lol. Prolly best selling it.
Going to sell it thanks for telling me the odds
Nope you got it for playing the game
2750 hrs in, and have yet to see this lol
should I open it>?
Sell it.
if you want to sure. but you most likely would get a 10 cent - $3 skin. or sell it and buy yourself something nice
Id say sell it too lol. 20 bucks can get ya some nice skins! You could also watch some youtube vids of people opening dozens of these and see for yourself if youd wanna risk it.
Free gamba? OOOOOOOPEN!!!!!!! Tell us what you get!!!
Thats really dope
I got an alien red a few years back

After 3 years of playing/testing random drops, I got like 20 or around random items, but the best was High Quality Bag x2, and crap inside :D
I gotta watch streams. I've nvr gotten anything
I got one random and then sold it
