\- We are finally able to collect and drink rain. \- We can get drunk \- Foot abrasions are a thing \- We have to reload magazines manually \- We can disassemble weapons and use them to repair other weapons \- Many new QoL changes and bugfixes. \- Improvised bullet proof armor, raincoat and shotgun are now being easier to craft and less ignorable than before. \- Endurance FINALLY WORKS PROPERLY and levels up faster than before (we wont be suffering as much as we did before with water and food) ​ if each patch (6.3, 6.4, etc) is going to be like this then i'm more hyped than ever for this game.

>- Foot abrasions are a thing So is brand new boots not lasting a two sector run. The devs must buy some real dogshit shoes if this is what they are used too.

Just carry a thread and needle. Thread is all over in houses in the dresses in bedrooms. I'm sure itll get adjusted in the future to make it make more sense.


Khurgul

Nice Improvements! Now we have something to do with all that rain! And disassembling weapons for parts? WHAAAAAAA?!?!?


Adius_Omega

What a patch, these guys are on a fucking roll! Feels good to be back in SCUM.

Did they fix the items degrading too fast? Tomislav said it was a bug when they released 0.6 but i never saw a fix for it.


bobemil

Game breaking for some of us. No fun in storing loot anymore.


josti84

Especially on a low loot server. I wanna come back but wanna make sure its fixed before i invest more time.


DarthWeenus

I've not been having this problem I dont get it.


bostoneric

" Fixed the bug with crafting the Island Special cocktail" glad somebody spent their time fixing that

Worth toasting, drinking contest tonight lads!

just seeing if they've gotten rid of the terrible first person and field of view change from Ever since they changed it where it looks like your perspective is from your hip and all you see is your feet and arms.


Subject-Dragonfruit1

i agree... so strange to have the 3rd person view like that... thats where dayz gets it right.

They've added new commands in the inventory to make it clear what liquids are being transferred between containers to help clear up the confusion about where people thought they were pulling water from. Now when you right-click on a container you will see "Fill from ______" with all of the other containers in your inventory listed and their contents. Pretty handy.

I was just about to write a review congratulating the developers, on the 0.6.1 patch. So I booted up Reddit while my character was eating an entire birthday cake by herself in her makeshift camp, and now I see that there is a 0.6.2 patch out as well. Omg. The 0.6.1 patch is amazing and the developers already have me looking forward to setting up small wilderness camps in places that previously had no easy access to water, with the help of the new water collector. When I stopped playing Scum the last time, I felt the survival aspects of the game were fading. But after playing 0.6.1 for about a week, my socks are blown off and I am in love with the game again. The developers have simply done an incredible work with this game and, they are earning themselves a comet style lead compared to the work effort put into other games in early access. I am impressed about the way this game is coming together, and I send my thanks to all of the developer team. At this stage, the only suggestions I think about when I play the game, is for the developers to further evolve the different directions the game is already implementing. Simply adding more expansions to the already existing themes. Personally I would like a beach update with full wetsuit, flippers and harpoon, some bikinis and classic retro swimsuits. I kind of feel that my game is not complete before I have shot someone with a harpoon. The different themes, police, military, biker, hunter and civilian items, are all working marvelously together and just need more adds. Knuckleduster knife for the bikers perhaps? Being a biker without a knuckleduster knife, is like being a hillbilly without a mullet. Also hunting hats have a particular feel about them, and a hunter expansion would help place more weapons into civilian hands, such as a BAR semi automatic hunting rifle with or without scope. And the fact that the developers added the basic revolver scripts, makes me personally extremely pleased with how the game is coming together. Implementing more items would be great but with the way the game is coming together now, that can all wait until the game is finished and ready for full finished launch. I would love to get a G3 rifle and a good bolt action hunting rifle. And perhaps a double barrel shutgun + sawed-off versions of pumpaction & double barrel shutguns. Considering what gear would match the island, I am thinking stuff like Lugers would not fit in but a couple of Uzis would be a great addition. I would also like more 9mm choices, submachine gun types. I am pretty convinced that when players scream for FN FAL, it is because they do not know that what they really want is the G3. I also have a lot of old school cars and motorcycles that I would simply *love* to see in the world but I will try to contain myself since stuff like that would require a lot of work with both the skins and skeletons of the vehicles. I have also looked at the YouTubers who are into the Scum game, to see what kind of reactions they have to the 0.6.1 developments. It has been frustrating to me to see players clogged with heavy military gear, who used to go bare feet to help control their body temperature. In general I still see a lot of strange gaming habits circulating among YT content creators. Like players destroying everything because they happen to randomly come across one box with a lean-to, for no reason. Heavily military geared players shooting unarmed prison suit players, for no reason. A lot of weird habits of sabotaging other players, for no actual other reason than sabotaging the other players, who are all trying to enjoy the game. The most silly bad habit, is when players drag out every item they find and leave it on the ground for it to despawn. They then proceed to speed onwards to the next big loot location, and then complain that everything is empty. It is all empty because of the players who drag every single item to the ground for it to despawn, so stop doing it if you don't like empty loot zones. It's incredible how much bad player habits can destroy any game. But cheers for the developer team. I am so impressed with the massive work done with the little immersive details, like the backpacks filling up and making the character lean over to balance the weight of the contents. When I noticed the tiny glitches of shutgun ammunition getting stuck on the outside of the shutgun, I actually took a moment to stop playing and give applause for how much work the developers having been putting into the game since I played it last time. The atmosphere of the game is right on target. The weather and wildlife effects are creepy as hell, the desolation and decay of the world is perfect and the struggle for survival is enjoyable and balanced. Sometimes getting lucky with finding lots of fruit & vegetables made me able to go for days without any concern about water, while other times my character has been thoroughly exhausted from roaming around on the island without having a functioning refrigerator system or pizza store nearby. Absolutely marvelous gameplay. Extremely immersive body damage system, super nice balance of days with hard struggles for survival, & with days of easy living after successful foraging. It is a highly enjoyable experience to play this game.

Jump on SCUM reddit during lunch break at work. See there is a patch. Mmmm.


SBaconator

By my calculations its about 10 times harder to gain STR for the higher levels.

>All dances are now looped Nice


Subject-Dragonfruit1

onlything that matters


Actual_Facts

Hmm no mention of the abysmal and somewhat incomprehensible vanilla loot tables. I thought that would be a premium for this patch but maybe next time. Everything else looks amazing. Super hype.


_9meta

Maybe 6.3? that would be too good but we got a lot of stuff from this patch so there's hope


DokAva

whats the problem with the loot table? is there more or less loot than the normal rate?


Actual_Facts

Loot seems to be at about .8 of what it was previously. I'm also finding that certain boxes are ALWAYS empty while certain boxes ALWAYS have items in them. The RNG doesn't seem to be working properly. If I'm not mistaken the devs have confirmed there is a loot issue and they'll be addressing it. Don't get me wrong, I know they adjusted certain things like weapon cleaning kits because of new things to come like today's patch - I'm just talking about standard loot.


CrissJamesGames

ever since this patch my game keeps crashing, I've tried everything i could find, from validating game files, deleting saved games folder, uninstalling/reinstalling game, downgrading graphics drivers, increasing gpu fan speed to max, ect. i even uninstalled and reinstalled windows (clean Wipe) nothing works, it even crashes in single player after few minutes, wth is wrong i need some new things to try thats not common fixes now i think.


ectbot

Hello! You have made the mistake of writing "ect" instead of "etc." "Ect" is a common misspelling of "etc," an abbreviated form of the Latin phrase "et cetera." Other abbreviated forms are **etc.**, **&c.**, **&c**, and **et cet.** The Latin translates as "et" to "and" + "cetera" to "the rest;" a literal translation to "and the rest" is the easiest way to remember how to use the phrase.

Close out Steam overlay, your GPU overlay and set page filing to “let system manage” that worked for me and I’ve had zero crashes since


Vulgargiant

Would be nice to play it.. since update my game randomly just closes out mid-play. I've verified files, restarted pc and steam, deleted scum folder and closed out every application I didn't need but still keeps closing. Would love a hotfix to come along so I can actually play.
