About

Welcome to SCUM, a ruthless open-world survival game where prisoners are dropped onto a vast, hostile island and forced to survive by any means necessary.
Every decision shapes who you become and how long you last. Scavenge, loot, craft, hunt, build and fight for every advantage as you adapt to a world that wants you dead.
Stay alive. Stay dangerous. Become something harder to kill.
SCUM is built on deep, interconnected survival systems that give every choice weight.
Your health, survival skills, metabolism, and fatigue are all shaped by an intricate progression system that defines how long you last.
But you’re not alone out here. Former contestants re-animated as Puppets shamble across the land, mutated experiments twisted into monsters lurk in the dark, and every other player has the same goal as you: Survive long enough to leave a mark.
Risk-taking, high-stakes and tragedy all make for a great show. In SCUM your actions directly shape how you are perceived through the world’s reputation system.
Team-up or go it alone. SCUM gives you the systems, what you do with them is up to you.
You're trapped on a vast and dangerous island built for opportunity and discovery, so scavenge what you need and craft what you don’t have.
SCUM’s 225㎢ map is inspired by all aspects of Croatian territory. Sprawling across beautiful Adriatic coastline, lush forests and harsh freezing mountain sides. Explore high-security military zones and hidden corners of the island, all offering something worth claiming or something worth fearing.
The prisoners who look beyond the next meal may begin to understand what’s really going on here, if they live long enough.
If you can survive here, you can survive anywhere.
Do you have what it takes?
Massive open world with diverse and dangerous environments
Deep character customization, metabolism and survival simulation systems

Was going to get back into the game but after switching from windows (do to the predatory AI implementation and bad updates) to a linux distro found that the game devs refuse to support linux even though battle-eye and EAC are now supported in linux. they simply block all multiplayer connections, there is work around but again this is patchwork at best. you still can only play on no anti-cheat enabled servers. Singleplayer Sandbox works but again who wants to play this without other people.... Please Gamepires work on something for linux many people are leaving windows including entire governments! otherwise dont buy this Dayz works with linux and doesnt give you this hassle.
Your install and patch times are abysmal. I'm writing this review after waiting nearly an hour, to install your 31Gig game. I have 1Gigabit speed internet, and can install games like Destiny 2 in less than 15 minutes, even during high traffic hours. The compression of your files and unpacking them literally throttles download process, and it's absolutely pathetic. Optimize your game better, because right now it's just got way too much going on, especially for how many 5+ year old bugs you still have in the game. Apparently this game is notorious for having throttling installs, which is disappointing. Maybe you should've thought twice about using Unreal Engine, because that's also known for causing these types of issues. Just another lazy developer, who can't properly optimize their own game.
还有恶性bug
Just bad, I had hopes but nah, trash, runs bad, looks mediocre, plays bad and feels bad. And now on top, they get greedy. Waste of money and time.....
They have got a very good baseline for that game...great potential...but they fuc*ed it up really bad. I could write so many bad things about that game after 0.7...look at all the recisions!!! Btw...Whats up with your non sense DLCs Gamepires? Do u want to melk that cow really dry now? Shame!!!
当你搜完物资武装npc直接刷你身边俩枪带走,恶心死你
In 94 minutes, here is what I did: Look for and eventually find two rocks. Made a knife that disappeared when I crafted it. Found it on the ground using tab button, eventually. Made a spear and a bow n arrows. Most of those got dropped too. Googled "how to find things on the ground in Scum". Navigate the many menu tabs. Figure out how to hold something. Ran around in circles hitting tab to try to find the stuff I dropped while crafting again. Finally craft a rag back pack out of my socks n underwear. Practice piss/poop/puke. Clicked refund. I thought I wanted this level of intricacy until I had it. I might try again another time, but right now I think the inventory management and working within this UI is going to be more work than I'm looking for.
Игру сломали. В июне всё было норм. Затем сделали какие-то моды и всё... не работает, вылетает, к серверам не подключишься. В общем, не рекомендую. Пустая трата времени. The game has been broken. Everything was fine in June. Then they made some mods and everything... doesn't work, crashes, and you can't connect to the servers. In general, I don't recommend it. A waste of time. -- updating the comment -- I logged in to the server today, and they deleted everything! My base, my motorcycle, my inventory box, it's all gone! I'm not playing this game anymore! It's a waste of time! Friends, don't waste your valuable time on this nonsense.
добавьте пожалуйста вертолёт, самолёт есть)
при обучении не возможно вылечится все слоты закрыты !!!!!!! Уважаемые разработчики , судя по комментариям , эта проблема была еще 2023 году !!!!!! У Вас совесть есть ????!!!!!
