Creating a Team in Rust is a great way to keep all your clan members together and prevent them from shooting each other when looking for loot or raiding on the map. Teams also allow you to see each other on the map, which is way easier than reading out coordinates. However, creating a team with your friends might be confusing. Luckily, we know exactly how to create a Team in Rust, whether you’re on PC, PlayStation, or Xbox.
Once on a team together, you’ll be able to view each other on the Rust world map, and a green name indicator will be visible above teammates’ heads. This will help you distinguish your teammates from other players and can prevent friendly fire. However, on most servers, friendly fire is on, so you can still shoot and damage/kill teammates.
