Rust is a small multiplayer map, one that was first featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, based on its original campaign mission, “Endgame“. The map is also featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare as part of the Season Two of content for the game.

Fans are already comparing it to the original game, some with a great amount of disdain for new changes, while others are very happy with how the version of Rust turned out.

Is it just me, or did IW like, completely change? This game is way better now.

This map is generally difficult to play on in large team games due to the amount of spawn killing and explosive spam. However, Rust is a great map if the player wants to achieve as many kills in a single match as possible, just as long as the player is oblivious to their own number of deaths with the close proximity of combat (allowing often results in both quick kills and deaths).
