Official Rust servers

Population is the count of players connected at the last refresh, sampled every five minutes. It is not an average, so a single reading can mislead at wipe time. Read the queue field beside it: a server with 200 slots and a queue of 40 will feel fuller than the same population without one. Wipe estimates follow observed wipes, not published schedules, and carry a confidence stated in the table. The group limit is the maximum team size the server enforces; a blank cell usually means Rust's default of eight.

The official tag narrows the pool, but the table still needs your own filters. Sort by population to find the fullest servers, by next wipe to find a fresh map, or by region to reduce latency. Filtering is done in the browser and applies to the rows already loaded; the underlying sample is every public server in the directory, not a subset. If you want modded or community options, those are tagged separately in the full server list. For the method behind each column, see the player count definition and the wipe schedule. A particular server's own page sits at /servers/.
