Bradley Arena is a Bradley vs Player Rust arena with large Helldivers-style decoration: unlock the dome with three red cards, fight NPCs, destroy three tanks and get out before the hatch shuts again.
About Bradley Arena
Bradley Arena is a Rust arena built around one of the hardest fights in the game: players against the Bradley APC. Inspired by the popular Helldivers game, it wraps that battle in large Helldivers-style decoration, inside a sealed complex that players must unlock, clear and then escape.
How the arena works
- Climb the legs of the building to reach the top of the arena. There you will find three red card readers, numbered 1 to 3. Insert your red cards to activate the red button.
- Press the red button. An alarm sounds across the complex, red lights warn other players that the dome is occupied, electricity blocks the card readers so nobody else can use them, and the hatch opens for 2 minutes.
- Get inside before it shuts. The hatch stays closed, and after 25 minutes the electricity on the readers switches off so other players can take their turn.
- Fight the NPCs and destroy the three tanks that stand between you and the objective. The walkways hold food, medicine and glass walls that protect you from enemies.
- Use the zip lines or climb the walls to reach the underground, where more NPCs, and sometimes a Bradley, are waiting.
- When it is time to leave, press the red button: the hatch opens for 5 minutes. Climb the walls and retrace your steps to the exit.
What the arena contains
- Puzzles and parkour
- Zip lines
- Loot, locked crates and elite crates
- Two kinds of NPCs
- Three Bradleys
- Traps
- An alarm sound and automatic lighting for the night
Ready for RustEdit
The prefab comes with everything RustEdit needs to apply it easily: terrain height, splats and the Bradley path. Its placement span is 326.4 × 130.8 × 326.4 metres, it holds 13,421 prefabs of 75 types, and its terrain layers also include topology. Current version: 1.0.2.
Because entry is controlled by cards and timers, one group at a time owns the dome, which makes it a strong objective for a PvE server or the centrepiece of an event. Our guide to running a Rust event server has more on building nights around arenas like this.
How to install it
- Unzip the file you downloaded.
- Transfer the prefab files to the CustomPrefabs folder used by RustEdit.
- Open your map, locate Bradley Arena in the Prefab List and place it; the terrain height, splats and Bradley path come with it.
- Save the map when you are happy with the spot.
Downloads are instant once checkout is complete, and every update shows up in your account. If something does not work as expected, get in touch from the contact page. More challenges are in the arenas category.
