Sodapoppin explains why he quit the OfflineTV Rust server
Twitch streamer Chance ‘Sodapoppin’ Morris has explained why he decided to quit the OfflineTV Rust server, despite only playing for a single day.
Opening on July 5, Abe ‘Baboabe’ Chung’sOfflineTV Rust server made its returnwith countless streamers getting in on the action. However, instead of being geared towards RP players, this time it’s completely focused on PvP and the Vanilla Rust experience. This got a lot of streamers excited, one of which being huge Twitch personality Sodapoppin. Despitehaving a few concerns before the launch of the server, Soda jumped into the game on July 5 to immediately grind and hopefully get ahead of the competition. Unfortunately, his time on the server only lasted for a singlestreambefore his viewers noticed he had no intention of returning to Rust. The next day, he explained exactly why he decided to quit the server and why it wasn’t as fun the third time around.

Sodapoppin reveals why he quit OTV Rust server
During his July 6 stream, Sodapoppin was asked why he quit the OTV Rust so soon after joining by a viewer in his chat. Taking the time to answer, he explained that it wasn’t as fun this time around as it felt like he couldn’t keep up with the curve. According to Soda, he spent hours grinding on the first day just to get his hands on a pistol, when other players had already crafted themselves an AK.
Being so far behind left him wondering whether there was even a point of attempting to keep up. “All I did was grind super fing hard, for the first couple hours, I just sat there beating trees, beating fing rocks the whole time, and then people got AKs by the time we got pistols… I’m not even keeping up.”

As soon as players begin playing efficiently and start becoming increasingly skilled, it can sometimes feel like a waste of time attempting to compete. Fingers crossed we see Soda back on Rust at some point in the future, but it’s unlikely to be on one of OTV’s private servers.
