Greetings!
The day of the year many you of you have been waiting for has finally arrived! Meatmas Day 2025 is here, and with it our Yearly MEATMAS HOLIDAY UPDATE. We've got a tree full of goodies ready for you all. We're having to do things a bit differently this year, in that the new Meatmas Items are ONLY on the Experimental Branch. This is because we're in the midst of some major overhauls in preparation for 1.0, and won't be able to push to main branch until all of that work is done. SO, to check out your goodies, just do the following:
TO PLAY THE NEW BUILD FOLLOW THESE STEPS:
- Right click H3 in Steam
- Go to Properties
- Click Betas
- Click The Dropdown
- Select Experimental!
- (You may need to restart steam to force the update to download)
NOW, I've got one request for you folks, that I ask every year, which is to please treat references to the specific items as SPOILERS through the end of the year. A lot of folks are travelling right now, or with family, and won't get a chance to open their gifts til later, and I'd like to give the maximum number of people a chance to do so while being surprised.
SO, if you want to talk about any item, in the discussion threads here, comments, bug reports, please ensure your post titles and comments has "Meatmas Item" in them instead of the actual name of the item, and put spoiler tags around your text. All posts that do not adhere to this will be deleted, just FYI.
ANYWHO, I hope you all have fun with the new gadgets, gats and toys, we put a bunch of fussy effort into them this year look forward to the hijinks you get up to with them.
All of us here at RUST want to wish you all a MERRY MEATMAS, and a Happy and Healthy New Year!
Peace,
Anton
