Penis size in Rust is tied to your SteamID

Rust is a game about staying alive, with Facepunch Studios' sandbox title offering players a survival experience that's still in Early Access over on PC, Mac, and Linux.

Back in March the developers stirred up a bit of controversy when they updated the game so that character skin tone and facial structure would be randomly generated based on the characters and composition of a player's SteamID.

"Just like in real life, you are who you are - you can't change your skin colour or your face," creator Garry Newman wrote at the time.

Now the randomisation feature - which apparently is tied to a player's account and thus means all the characters they'll ever make will look the same - has been updated to include new physical attributes, including, as the headline above suggests, the length of the penis:

"Like tallness, face, head size, jaw definition, race, and limb size, penises are also randomized," Newman said, confirming that the video posted on Reddit is genuine.

The developers have also confirmed that they're also preparing to add female character models into the game. In what'll make a refreshing change, the studio are planning on making the models lifelike rather than idealising them.

"We really don't want to make the female model unrealistic in the sense of her being aesthetically idealised. In the same way that our male models aren't perfect specimens of the male body, neither should the female be. No huge boobs nor four-inch waists here."
