The Rusty Old Gamers Steam group

Tired of joining DayZ servers where you spend 3 hours looting just to get sniped by a guy camping a water pump?

Rusty Old Gamers is launching a new PvE-focused Takistan server built for players who enjoy survival, progression, exploration, and base building—without the constant sweatlord PvP chaos.

What makes us different?
🏜️ TakistanPlus Map – A massive desert environment with a completely different DayZ experience
🧟 Custom Zombies – Slower infected that still remain dangerous in numbers
📈 Skill Progression System – Level up and specialize your character with Zen Skill Perk Tree
🏠 BaseBuildingPlus – Build bigger and better bases
🛒 DayZ Expansion – Traders, vehicles, storage, and expanded gameplay features
🛡️ PvE Protection – Base raiding and grief-heavy gameplay are not the focus here
🍖 Slower Metabolism – Less micromanaging hunger/thirst every 5 minutes
🔔 Notifications System – Helpful server updates and alerts
⚙️ Active admins and a community that actually helps new players
