Welcome to Nuclear Gaming - More Than Just Rust

Welcome to the new Nuclear Gaming hub.

If you've been around, you know us from our Rust servers at nuclearrust.net - our Cargo/Oil Trainer, and our other servers have been home to the Nuclear Rust for a while now. We've built something we're proud of: no pay-to-win bullshit, quality infrastructure we own and run ourselves, and a community that actually gives a damn.

But here's the thing - we're expanding.

What is Nuclear Gaming?

Nuclear Gaming is the umbrella for everything we do. Rinzler and I (XeryaX) don't just host servers - we stream, make content about games and rigs, and we're always looking at what's next in gaming. Rust has been our bread and butter, and it's not going anywhere. But we've got bigger plans.

Hytale is Coming

In January 2025, we're launching Hytale server hosting. If you're not familiar with Hytale, think of it as the spiritual successor to Minecraft that actually looks promising. We're setting up infrastructure now, and we'll be ready at launch.

We're already organizing our Discord to support the new community and gathering input on what the "Nuclear Hytale experience" should look like. If you've got opinions on what makes a great Hytale server, join our Discord and let us know.

What This Site Is For

This hub is where we'll post updates, announcements, content highlights, and anything else relevant to Nuclear Gaming as a whole. Game-specific stuff will still live on the dedicated sites (like nuclearrust.net), but this is home base.

We're not trying to be corporate or professional - we're gamers who happen to run a hosting business. Expect our personality to show through.

We're Running Hytale Now

Connect: hytale.nucleargaming.io After seven years of development hell, a Riot Games cancellation, and a dramatic founder rescue mission, Hytale finally dropped into early access today. And yeah, we're already hosting it. What's Hytale? If you've been living under a rock: it'

Rust Wipe Schedule Explained (And Why BiWeekly Works)

Look, some server owners will write you a goddamn thesis on why their wipe schedule is perfectly optimized for player retention and seasonal lunar cycles or whatever. Here's ours: It's simple because I'm lazy. The Schedule 3x Server: Wipes twice weekly - Sundays and

Building the Perfect Cargo/Oil Trainer: How We Learned to Stop Worrying and Embrace the Chaos

The God Mode Disaster We launched our first trainer with all the good intentions. F1 spawn anything you want. Teleport anywhere by clicking. Multiple oil rigs, monuments, even a racetrack and zombies because why the hell not. Turns out giving Rust players creative mode is like handing a toddler a

Why We Host Our Own Servers (And Why It Matters)

TL;DR: We went from cloud hosting to self-hosting our infrastructure. Performance is better, costs are lower, and we're not at the mercy of someone else's SLA. The Journey Through Hosting Hell We've been around the block. Started with shared hosting like every naive
