@@Rooslahn No I'm curious what the substance behind "they added more cosmetic DLC without fixing the bugs" is. It's a business and they have teams for different things, those cosmetics only needs the art team to add 3D assets to the game, the art team is probably not responsible for fixing bugs or gameplay related issues. That isn't the team's energy wasted, thats the art team actually doing something with the salary they are given. I mean sure they could alternatively just sit around and chill and do nothing instead while also waiting for the devs to fix bugs and shit lmao Scum is a shit game, but that line of thinking is just wrong lol
The removal of animals (without playing a dumb mini game) and the pop in zombies that spawn in a few feet from you killed the game for me. The world feels lifeless and dull in a way it didn't before and all the planning in the world means nothing in the face of these nonsensical spawns. Hopefully, the devs can turn things around, but I'm not coming back to this game until/if the glaring issues are addressed in a meaningful way
@@rickstas2683 There's hunting, but it's a mini-game now. Previously, you'd come across animals randomly. Chickens and goats hanging around farms and such. Now, you'll hear them but won't see them until you hunt them through the mini-game. Very un-immersive. The only animals still encountered outside the mini-game are wolves and bears, but far less often than in earlier builds
@@joshwilson6388 They brought them back, but in a quite subpar way. No you can indeed meet animals but only close to towns/POIs as, like puppets, they are part of the "encounter system" now. As you know, the encounter system doesn't do much out in the wild.
I used to run a pretty popular SCUM server before they took the planes out, they drove me to DayZ, no plans to go back. I could easily be the guy you're talking about because that's what happened to me, he blocked me. I may have had a different name with a certain "unlucky" number in it.
See! From a business perspective, you (along with other creators/ influencers) were my breadwinners! Blocking due to constructive feedback is so childish and unnecessary.
I was at the D4 airfield the other day... And I was appalled.... So they have just thrown a BUNCH of bushes all over the place to be able to hide puppet spawns and spawn them near you. I used to love the D4 airfield :(
i love scum but almost all the content creators do not actually have knowledge like a veteran scum player does. So many of the content creators for scum just love drama and validation. We need more kings like you and casual who actually do good for the game and do not just blindly follow the devs. These devs are some of the best devs ive ever seen, I feel bad for them that they made the decision to partner with jagex.
These devs have failed to make a multiplayer game and it sucked before jagex took over. Pve too easy and pvp non existant. Been waiting years for them to get players to cross paths. The game is single player and always relied on private server owners to make the game fun. I don't think Jagex have even stepped in yet.
i am just still confused on why i need to pay for fuel in that world, i'd get it if i buy fuel from a vendor but from derelected run down zomby controlled gas stations? whyyyy
In other words, play a “mini game” so the game can spawn them in for you lol. In dayz it’s purely coincidence and you can encounter animals randomly without any of that. It feels more natural
Thanks for the video. When it went on sale on Steam, I was looking at the DLC and my first thought was. WTF??? Why would I care about that stuff, and why do the Devs? Thank you for saving me $23.37. Keep telling the truth. Mad Respect
They simplified it too much hordes are dumb all the cool vehicles are gone graphic change for the worse the lack of story mode ever is also really dumb if you just jumped on with no explanation your playing day z with better graphics. You'd never know the rich background story. My group comes every few months to check it out and nothing has changed in a year for the better. 7 days took 14 years but they made big changes for the better with a solid road map. I will wait but I won't hold my breath I feel it will be a failed game.
at least in zomboid you dont have a janky movement system and have more to do in game than scum. i have loads of hours in both and ngl id put more in zomboid if asked. it just sucks that scum is overly complicated to the point where it gets tiring
I think you'd enjoy scum a bit more on the server Gordon's Kitchen. Fuel is free, water spawns in wells, loot is customized to make more sense, and there are missions to complete.
I played this game at launch and was part of a server called Territory and War, those were truly the golden years of scum. I strongly believe that ever since they added in base building , the game has just been on a downhill slope. They continued to ignore loads of bugs in favor of adding more content, which ended up producing more problems, burying the original problems farther and farther down. Not to mention, the whole bot situation. True story, During Territory and War server many many years ago, before any bots existed on Scum, we were trying to make our server somehow better ( I eventually became an owner of the same server!), the idea of a kill feed came to mind and soon enough we reached out to a modder/hacker. Paid em, he made the bot and soon discovered that it was quite easy to get into their games files, etc. I don't know the exact terminology, but he was forced to let them know about what had happened and what he was trying to do for our server. Approved, we were quite literally the first server to ever have any sort of bot and naturally, that same person turned around later on and decided "Hey I can make a profit from this!" I don't blame him, but soon most if not all servers were filled with bots and it ruined the game in general. Where people would have to go out and earn their gear, scavenge and get nice kills on unsuspecting players, now had been reduced to people just ordering their gear and having it dropped off to them. I took a huge break from the game and upon my return, nothing has changed at all. They continue to just pile more and more content into the game and ignoring all the issues in the game. Top that off, I along with many others got into the beta testing, so in the discord we were able to communicate directly with them. As soon as the bots were a huge thing, no one wanted it to go away and ignored the fact that it was ruining the whole point of the game. Not to mention, many within the beta testing discord favor content over fixing bugs. I was laughed at many times and soon just left the discord all together. I cannot support a game that has devs with their heads up their asses and refuse to see the issues before them. Thats my rant and little bit of history of Scum from my end. Heck, I even at one point had the highest viewed lock picking video. I was quite literally the first to put one up on youtube, but I had later hide it since I stopped playing the game. But its still there! Just more -now- have more views than mine since I had it hidden lmao.
i played every major update from 0.4 up until the puppet spawns drastically changed. the way they take 2 steps forward, 1 step back with every update was frustrating to play through all the time but i really liked the potential the game has so i put up with alot of those issues. but once the puppet spawn changes happened, that was enough to fully drive me away. it sucks, some days i was one of the only streamers playing that game daily and i was always rooting for it. but after almost 1k hours, optimism kinda started to go away. i genuinely hope when 1.0 happens and mod support comes in, modders will take the game to a better state. thats the only way i see many people like myself play the game again. good video, i actually found you through other videos of yours but im glad i caught this one.
Hey thank you for stopping by:) modders keep dayz community very happy! So I definitely agree with your statement! I keep forcing myself to come back with hopes that the game has changed ( even slightly) but I’m still struggling with finding that “something”
They havent been talking about mod support for years now. I doubt they will allow it. They changed the course a lot and showed that they dont really care what the players want
@@qreepyQT i hate that your probably right because i havent heard them mention it in a while.from talking to other people about it, it seems it wont be or will be in much later than 1.0 or if needed.. oh well
@@SpicyBeanDip i feel the same way about it. I dont really want to be right about this because it had so much potential. I stopped playing after supporting them so hard for so long. Now i will equally (but fair) be a hater
Such a disappointment. Sick of checking on updates and seeing nothing good has been added. Its so obvious what the game needs and they just refused to add it. Promising to add the obvious at 1.0 7 years later btw. It's been living on hype for too long. It was always lacking players due to its massive map and they did nothing to fix this. I streamed it for over a year and just couldn't do it anymore as it just became a repetive borefest. The devs do not like negative feedback and reward positive feedback like no one's business. Steam forums are a shocker. They just banned me. I refuse to play this game again unless Shroud recommends it. He never will. I first heard of the game from Shroud.
Was my game of all time. Until last december. (0.8 didn't like it, but well... played it) Now the only game I used to play, its uninstalled. I stayed on for 6 months after the disastrous horde update with the illusionary hope that they would bring back the spawn system (not the horde, the base spawn system)... posting regularly on the steam forums. The only word to describe it is unplayable, not because of the difficulty, but because of the HUGE break in immersion that the new spawn system added to the game. I felt like I was walking around an empty map with trees and bushes chasing me and throwing puppets all around me. Like hell, an hostile bush, maybe 3 or 4 puppets will spawn near it.... Survival? no... the correct term for this game is, joke.
I started playing it a few months ago and honestly i enjoy it found a nice server and had a few friends join and its been a joy for us it replaced dayz for me entirely just gonna keep following the games updates and be excited for the npcs coming if they do it right
SCUM devs seemed to almost listen to the community too much. Instead of focusing on their core vision they started catering to these requests for kind of obscure and overly punishing hardcore survival features. EA development is fragile and as soon as they start going out of their way for small and highly specific feature requests things tend to get spaghetti coded. Over time the core gameplay suffers because the devs get too far ahead of themselves. Theyre creating what should be near release features way too early.
To me, it seems like they are rushing to get to 1.0 so much! The game clearly isn’t ready for that type of commitment and work. But they sure do fly through updates
If anyone doesn’t like this game and think it’s to hard just play single player for a week on solo with whatever easy settings you want to learn the basics once you learn that it’s all a cake walk from there.
i just want coop mode like private server i hop on with few friends. so we can cheat up to speed trough some complex stuff , and overall can goof around
this game as all games has always had lore but u can find bit and peices from 0.3 refrencing ai quests and roaming npcs its always had plans to have story content amongst the open world im still excited to see where the game goes
Thanks for the update. I've been looking into it again, and they showed the new content for the next patch. They are releasing quests that, according to the devs themselves, will allow players to do exactly what they've always been doing, but with rewards for doing them. So, they added an entirely new system that accomplishes ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, while not fixing anything that was broken about all of the other new systems that they added, just to get it ready for 1.0. So.... I think you may be right that this isn't worth going back to, even 3 months later. It hurts me. I really does. :'( Also, it wasn't just Wardog, which I'm assuming is who you meant. I heard reports from others who were blocked. Gampires just decided that they were not a fan of critics.
It’s crazy you made this comment! I just redownloaded the game and played for an hour or so and it still is the same. And yes content creators who spoke out were blocked and bashed by the other side that supported the game no matter what. Scum community as a whole isn’t very welcoming to criticism.
jagex made scum fail.. this company is full with clowns who have no clue what they are doing.. the only "success" from jagex is a 20+ year old mmo with bad graphics and even 2 versions of it because they destroyed the original game with their nice updates (just like it is with scum).. but even this isn't really a success since runescape only exists on its bots, if they would ban them they would die in a few month.. its just sad what they did to scum, but it wasn't surprising if you look at the other games, jagex published..
I know this video is a month old and this the first ive seen of your videos, but yea man it still rings true right now. The game really changed around the .8/jagex buyout. Beda with his leaks got a virtual gag and it seems the direction of the game just took a nose dive in the wrong direction. Good video man.
It has changed soooo much ever since 0.8 and only went down hill from there! I sure hope a lightning would strike and change scum for the better but based on how things have been ever since then! I don’t think anything will change:/ it’s such a shame
I 100% agree. It breaks my heart what Scum is today. I've always been against mods for Scum, but I have to say that mods will probably save it. I've invested over 4K hours in this game, and you are right Scum 'is just not the same'. It's ruined at the moment, not only because of mechanics removed over the years (remember weapons jamming?) and, especially, the current puppet spawning system... I have to stop commenting - I'm getting really rawled up.
With the horde and the spawn system they messed up bad. So bad that I stoped playing. So bad that I never bought any useless DLCs because I hesitate supporting a project what is going clearly in a very wrong direction. Removing content to replace it with broken content is not ideal. As a PvE player I went further and I play other games now. I have no hopes that the SCUM Devs might fix all the problems. Maybe they are not even really interested into fixing it.
I didnt really see this video as a good review of the game . I was expecting some actual footage of whats wrong with the game. You showed only cinematics and you spent 4-5 minutes of the video talking about other content creators shaming you for your previous review and a Dev banning Casual Wardaog on Twitter? I would encourage you to play the game and record some footage of what you think needs to be improved. Cause i do agree that the game has issues, but i dont see the DLC's as a relevant argument for Scum's progress. Scum got bought up by Jagex so its natural they want to earn some money, which would be DLC's. One thing that needs to be improved is the horde system like you said, but that would be one of the few things i saw as good critique Stay positive bro👍
I agree. Also, I recently came back from a long break to see these things and noticed something disturbing. The remaining English speaking playerbase is very reclusive and several I've killed had vehicles full of perverse items with pink little backpacks and the other pink things and the sextoys. It seemed very... PDF file type and just perverted. Most have the ridiculous hair. I'm on another break and will return to see the 1.0 but I'm not holding out hope. Good video.
@@AndiKoehn The attention to detail (from the clothing options to the extended health system and everything in between they went above and beyond the other games), the graphics, the addition of the mechs guarding bases and the weapons.
I got this game the day it came out. Loved it. Have over 5000 hours. My mates stopped a long while back. Sadly I can’t play it anymore. It’s not the game that it once was. It was FUN.
I did play the game since 2019 till it stop to be fun at 0.8 more exactly, had 1.5K hrs of gameplay. And i agree 100% with what you saying in this video and you are not the only one who said it. Even people who have their names in the game said it and left the game after they seen how bad this game become. The game is totally DEAD. People just stop losing your time with it because is not worth it. This game is in a deep dark hole and has no way out anymore, the hole name is Jagex and they only want Scum devs to make them money, they are their slaves now is GAME OVER for live.
Totally with you on this. I LOVED THIS GAME! Two years ago. I totally understand what happened and why the studio made it choice but it just sucks cuz it's not the games fault it became a victim of it's own community.
Nah, the devs are dug in now. It's heart breaking because this game was great, still needed more content but what was there was great. Now, now it's just one terrible decision after another and the devs just spit out the same bullshit over and over while nothing changes, nothing gets fixed and the game suffers for it. It's over.
bout 5k hours and hundreds of livestreams and I stopped playing after 0.7 as that version of scum was the best it has ever been. I have hopes that when the game releases the modding community can implement the game we used to love
What made that version better for you? I played that version when i was first introduced to the game. And that version for me felt... Entirely unfinished and empty. Clonky and just overall ugh... I literally could not sit on the game for more than a few minutes. But i played 0.8 and thought it was better. Then 0.95 i loved! I got really into it but what sent me away and put off from playing and it was because of the player wipes. Bc they came at inconvenient times, when i was just getting a better feel for it. Got my base finally set up and all is well and boom! Player wipe. I couldn't get behind starting over and over. I get that's how the game functions. Being forced to do it takes me out. If i feel like restarting from the beginning that's cool, if i feel like doing so. But if I'm forced im just wtf i wasn't ready to start over. That really took me out. It is still in my library i sometimes log in to it just to get that feeling again. Doesn't last long anymore
Scum has some major issues, it’s called the devs. I’ve not enjoyed this game for a long time and and like you said it’s a shame as it had so much potential. To me it feels more like a console game now but I’m suspicious that that is their goal, simple it down for console to make more money.
Loved SCUM in the beginning but it began to seem like a game that had no direction or identity. A game trying to do everything while fumbling what it already had. Bizarre decisions from these devs and just all over the place direction. Not even surprised that now they've got the stupid drone thing going before they got the long talked about NPCs going that are still just being....talked about.
Hey bro, long time no see. Dude the game is so bad now i stop play it as so many people i know from the old Scum servers. I did talk with outer old Scum players and they all said the same, the game is dead since Jagex force devs to be their money making slaves. Is all over.
Its a game with great potential and a lot of stuff to do. But it is NOT a survival game yet, at best it is a pvp game with survival and rpg elements. Also the gold+cash spawning makes it really not solo friendly so I tend to gravitate more towards dayz.... Dayz is pure survival. Scum-not so much sadly.
So your entire gripe with the game is random zombies will spawn in buildings after you've already been in them? V 0.95 now and I can't say I've had that issue, or if I did, it wasn't gamebreaking or noticeable enough to make a video saying how bad the game is and only use that as an example. Scum is still the best survival game there is right now imo. My only complaint is the 40 dollar price tag. But you can still get it for 15 on key sites
bruh.. there is a bug with scopes for like half a year now.. bodys still disapear sometimes when you died (have to relog), the game crashes really often, they still couldn't handle the horde and zombie spawn situiation (even after they told us everything will be fine now), the whole gun jamming mechanic isn't in the game for over a year now, since they introduced armored vehicles you are not able to shoot properly if armor is of your car (1-2 years now?).. they do NOTHING against cheaters.. i can continue if you want, but im sure if i point everything out, this comment gets so long nobody will read it..
I had a 3 year break from this game. Came back now and wtf? Spent around 60 hours then I stopped. I got so angry. Posted a review on Steam and after I started to google if the feeling was mutural 2024 or if was just me. Then I stumbled on this channel and this video. I agree with you 100%. I wrote this on Steam before I started to google and alot of that is what you bring up in this video. Thank you for outing them! My review: "Thousands of hours played in this game. Had a break for around 3 years. Just came back and... wtf did you do to this game? What is this "fortnite skins" type of shit you focus on. What happened? Building is shit. I just removed a stair going to the roof and 24 pieces of the roof got destroyed. Where is the bug fixes that you did so beautiful week after week. You guys where my favourite developers. You actually cared and worked on making it better. But this? I really don't understand wtf has happened to this game but it makes me sad. Early access still after 6 years and now you are selling dlcs in form of pimping your outfit before the game is even officially released? Shame on you for killing what could have been an amazing final product.
I’m glad there’s so many more people like you and I. Scum community tried to bash on my outlook about Scum. But what’s real is real and I knew that there were so many more people like you and I. People that genuinely cared about the game
The game fell off since they changed zombie spawning. Walking into a city and clearing your way through but now it isnt the same and i gave it try and try again. Every update they just keep ignoring the main issues. Im hoping by 1.0 maybe abit after they can resolve it and make the game the awesome game it is meant too be, but i am unsure.
The horde update was absolutely terrible... it breaks immersion, its not fun in any way, zombies spawn on top of ypu all the time and the world feels very depressing and empty... same goes for the hunting rework.
I started playing when 0.5 came out and it was funniest game to survive off scraps and as little gear possible but now the traders are a core feature that you have to get money for respawns otherwise your character gets a permadeath which forces players to interact with traders which is annoying and not fun at all animal spawns used to be great and you were able to track animals now you can’t. Now with the stupid new horde system the game has completely shit the bed clearing a area is completely pointless now due the puppets spawns constantly spawning where ever they like within your current vicinity. The map is massive which each sector have a bunker and loot that can keep players in a sector forever pretty much reducing interactions with players compare this with dayz players have to choose to stay on the coast containing low tier loot or start heading inland to compete with more players for better tier loot which is great keeps players always looking over their shoulder. In dayz your most likely going to to bump into player every hour or so unless you don’t want to be seen, but scum on the other hand I swear I never see a single soul if scum implemented the audio that dayz has for gun fire players would be able to hear players from a much further distance, the flying drone used to fly to players locations promoting pvp but that is long gone now.
@@Rooslahn it’s just good to see someone that doesn’t blow smoke out of their ass and calls out the game for what it is which it was great game now it’s not. hopefully the devs fix it before the npcs bring in even more bugs then they can play catch-up with the years worth of bugs then finally fuck off the cheaters
1.0 in 8 months from now (end of second quarter 2025 - June 2025). Expect it to land like a dull thud of shit. Removing content and reintroducing it is not NEW content. Large Squads like 12+ can run over a server easily. A vast majority of servers are empty. Get passed the top 100 servers (that aren't Chinese bot servers) and it's 1-4 players if your lucky. What a waste of money. The game initially started out strong in development, and once Jagex joined this game has simply gone into free fall. Runescape is their only game of note and that came out in 2001. It's worth pointing out Runescape developer Jagex announced upcoming pricing increases for Runescape membership costs. On September 27, 2024, the price of a membership subscription will increase from $12.49 USD per month to $13.99 USD per month. This company is simply of the old school of GREED over quality. Jagex have DLC for everything in Runescape. The future for SCUM looks pretty bleak, and now that the game is nearly 6 years in early development its actually starting to look dated. Still runs like crap if you have a decent sized squad. They keep adding stuff no one asked for. The puppets run right at you. The animals run right at you, until they flee then they run directly away from you. The drop ships drop right on you, until they flee then ascend directly upwards. Razors, Mr. Brenner, and Mechs come right at you they don't flee. Still predictable and boring. Will Tec 1 officers and Hunters be any different? Probably not. They'll charge you too. Yawn 🥱 It's tired and already feels old. Hopefully the Genre of survival games will continue but will SCUM be the one remembered? Currently doubtful. If this game has any chance of being saved it'll be done so by the modding community. This current development team simply don't have the skill set to take SCUM to the next level. They're out of GOOD ideas and it shows. To many content creators are laughable trying to hype this game into more than what is is. Raykit is about as successful as his servers. Edit- Also still shitting through your pants all these years later. Pathetic. 💩
The game started with so much joy , they have just messed it up so so bad . Sad could have been a great game . A pickup truck that u can’t haul anything or even use the bed of the truck for anything , you can just go on and on . They went cheap on everything. Just lame . Mechs are lame . It’s become a computer and paste
Yeah I was hoping vehicle customization was gonna be a lot more impactful. But clearly it was meant more for PvP players. But I heard PvP isn’t even that good
scum no longer cares about its community only about the $$$ i loved this game once i have over 5000hrs + weekly vids now i cant bring myself to play it i keep hoping they will get back to what they originally planned but i doubt they will
I played it literally 3 days ago im waiting for that update and wipe and i have not seen a whole lot of bugs and i was catching chickens, goats, bears and wolves what are people talkig about? Is somebody paying you to trash talk the game every new trailer? 😂
I don’t get why remove things. Why not Waite and just add the new stuff when it’s ready makes no sense I have Sean games in development get ruined by relese in these types of bad choices rember just servive they went down this rabbit hole as well
Devs blocked a lot of people for pointing things out. Their just hotheaded fools ruining their own game. They still haven't fixed puppet spawns what makes the game just not fun to play.
Scum was also the game that made me realized how fake some content creators are. They try to mask and make a game sound way better and appealing for viewers but the reality is completely different. Sickens me honestly
WHAT. Why did they partner with Jagex? The people behind Runescape. That is so weird. I have started Scum once when i bought it on release. But never played it. Guess i will wait for things to get good i think
The game has very few weapons. I bought this trash 6 years ago. revisiting every 2 years with no significant changes. Why anyone wants to play this car scavenging sim is beyond me. It's just a static world with poorly implemented ai.
Its always been like this. Its just that the game is unplayable now. We had to fight tooth and nail with them to fix the metabolism system. They failed because they didn't give a shit about their player base. They sold the game to 3 different publishers over the course of their lifetime. I've seen the changes they've made in the name of diversity. Wokeness killed SCUM.
Who were the previous publishers? I didn’t know that-that’s why asking. Also yes not listening to the player base was definitely a hit in the back. I was never a part of scum community but some of those content creators were so quick to back up scum even when it was starting to go south, and the amount of hate I received from that is surreal😂 some content creators are so fake and not to be trusted😂
Scum is one of the best games out in that category You can do so much in this game and people don't like it because it's hard and they suck That's just simple facts
Don’t be ridiculous😂 the game had a good concept but ruined by entitlement, poor leadership and greed. You can’t even encounter any sort of wildlife without playing a “mini game”…let me inform you-that system is in the game because the game wouldn’t handle animals running around on the server - causing too much lag and instability. So their solution to that is to have you play a mini game of “hide and track” so the game would spawn animals in your area… They removed birds a long time ago for the same reason. You loot one house, then come across a screamer, the house you looted earlier becomes packed with puppets again! And all of that ammo you wasted earlier was for nothing. Once again don’t be ridiculous…
and why is it that we need to pay for gas at a gas station that's ruled by Z's... if the gas station was ruled by a vendor i could understand the payment thing but no. we have to pay anyway which makes no FFing sense when you tryin to survive.
To be fair! 3090 should run this game with any settings (phenomenal)! Obviously there’s things he could do to improve his performance but the point is-he shouldn’t have to lol
They broke puppet spawn the old one was so much better I use to run a pve server with puppets all over now even on max it’s not that many why do they keep remaking the same things over and the game just gets worse how you take all the cars and plains out and rework them and a year laiter still not all back was exited for boses and quests barely any boss now I hear about one coming you can’t kill how dose this sound fun a quest sistam we have no idea what will it rilley be like base power Whear is it 5 years waiting I hope they can turn it around but it’s not looking good started playing once human having a blast
@@Rooslahn Dont let my comment stop you from redownloading it its one of my top 5 favorite games that i put way to many hours into and i have only been playing pvp and the amount of cheating that me and my buddy deal with is just crazy and it seems like the devs do nothing to fix years old problems but keep adding stuff nobody asked for that is most the time broken itself.Anyways thanks for the vid man have good one!
It’s funny how this new generation expects everything for free. I used to buy a game for $60 and not get any DLC and enjoy the game as long as you could but now they add DLC patches bug fixes you guys want all that shit for free so when they add something that you have to pay for so that the debs could get more money for these patches and DLC‘s and upgrades and bug fixes you guys wanna bitch and moanso how do you play game before you have to pay for the new stuff you do it for free forever?
Or maybe instead of releasing new DLCs and or new content, use the base money you’ve already collected from thousands of players and use that to patch what’s already in the game instead of releasing new content and ignoring the broken system already implemented in the game? They need to stay in their lane as far as what they can and cannot handle, who lied to you that a hairstyle dlc will save the game’s performance?
I felt that for longer then 0.8 seem there focus is gone from the game what people think means nothing to dev and I didn't buy or want Amy of the dlcs coz it seem the game is taken 1 step forward just to take 4 or 5 to the back
idk bro i got disagree on one thing, those hair dlcs and crap was easy 1-2step done content so it not really worth getting work up over. BUT, this game got some big ol problems and needs some direction. They started off strong with the tv show ideal and having criminals fight and survive on a island and I kin da like the scifi monster stuff but the actual game and its loop....is awful and feels so unfinished and lackluster. The games wants to do pvp but there is not a lot pvp and the game wants to do pve and it is also lacking and buggy and the enemies just popping up out nowhere feels weird. The survival elements are awesome but on most servers are undermined or even removed with loot and once you combine all this you got a rather boring and empty game The way its developing I can not see a good outcome and thats a shame

I’m all for cosmetic DLCs but when the game is drowning with bugs from years ago and still hasn’t been fixed! That’s an issue
Point proven
what do you want? the art team to fix gameplay bugs? lmao
No, you’re putting words in the wrong mouth.
@@Rooslahn No I'm curious what the substance behind "they added more cosmetic DLC without fixing the bugs" is. It's a business and they have teams for different things, those cosmetics only needs the art team to add 3D assets to the game, the art team is probably not responsible for fixing bugs or gameplay related issues.
That isn't the team's energy wasted, thats the art team actually doing something with the salary they are given. I mean sure they could alternatively just sit around and chill and do nothing instead while also waiting for the devs to fix bugs and shit lmao
Scum is a shit game, but that line of thinking is just wrong lol
i play scum pretty often and do i rarely hit a bug
The removal of animals (without playing a dumb mini game) and the pop in zombies that spawn in a few feet from you killed the game for me. The world feels lifeless and dull in a way it didn't before and all the planning in the world means nothing in the face of these nonsensical spawns. Hopefully, the devs can turn things around, but I'm not coming back to this game until/if the glaring issues are addressed in a meaningful way
So animals completely removed?😅 what about hunting in a survival game? 😅
@@rickstas2683 There's hunting, but it's a mini-game now. Previously, you'd come across animals randomly. Chickens and goats hanging around farms and such. Now, you'll hear them but won't see them until you hunt them through the mini-game. Very un-immersive. The only animals still encountered outside the mini-game are wolves and bears, but far less often than in earlier builds
Yeah I remember! 😂 it is such a down side for me. No birds either! Due to airplanes
@@joshwilson6388 They brought them back, but in a quite subpar way. No you can indeed meet animals but only close to towns/POIs as, like puppets, they are part of the "encounter system" now. As you know, the encounter system doesn't do much out in the wild.
@-Jakob- when I was testing the game(recently) I haven’t seen any of them 😂 I guess I’m gonna have to look harder next time
I used to run a pretty popular SCUM server before they took the planes out, they drove me to DayZ, no plans to go back. I could easily be the guy you're talking about because that's what happened to me, he blocked me. I may have had a different name with a certain "unlucky" number in it.
See! From a business perspective, you (along with other creators/ influencers) were my breadwinners! Blocking due to constructive feedback is so childish and unnecessary.
I was at the D4 airfield the other day... And I was appalled.... So they have just thrown a BUNCH of bushes all over the place to be able to hide puppet spawns and spawn them near you. I used to love the D4 airfield :(
This video is justifying why your community respects you bro
Thank you for kind words my friend:)
i love scum but almost all the content creators do not actually have knowledge like a veteran scum player does. So many of the content creators for scum just love drama and validation. We need more kings like you and casual who actually do good for the game and do not just blindly follow the devs. These devs are some of the best devs ive ever seen, I feel bad for them that they made the decision to partner with jagex.
How does he do good for the game when this video is made to turn people off scum?
These devs have failed to make a multiplayer game and it sucked before jagex took over. Pve too easy and pvp non existant. Been waiting years for them to get players to cross paths. The game is single player and always relied on private server owners to make the game fun. I don't think Jagex have even stepped in yet.
i am just still confused on why i need to pay for fuel in that world, i'd get it if i buy fuel from a vendor but from derelected run down zomby controlled gas stations? whyyyy
It’s not a run down gas station it’s a game show and the gas stations are controlled by
You can’t see animals but you have to make sure you use bathroom
You got it haha
I think this is when the game wanna tell you there are animal tracks confusing anuf they make sound to use ur left click and u will see the tracks.
In other words, play a “mini game” so the game can spawn them in for you lol. In dayz it’s purely coincidence and you can encounter animals randomly without any of that. It feels more natural
when casual wardog quit I knew it was rly going downhill then..
Before he quit he delted comments people speaking Truth and he quit i don't like him 😂
i always liked his videos
Thanks for the video. When it went on sale on Steam, I was looking at the DLC and my first thought was. WTF??? Why would I care about that stuff, and why do the Devs? Thank you for saving me $23.37. Keep telling the truth. Mad Respect
Thanks boss🤌🏻
I personally enjoy it but find it overly complex to the point everything is annoying to do which just makes me go back to 7 days to die or zomboid.
if everything is annoying to do, how are you enjoying it? It sounds like it would be the exact opposite.
They simplified it too much hordes are dumb all the cool vehicles are gone graphic change for the worse the lack of story mode ever is also really dumb if you just jumped on with no explanation your playing day z with better graphics. You'd never know the rich background story. My group comes every few months to check it out and nothing has changed in a year for the better. 7 days took 14 years but they made big changes for the better with a solid road map. I will wait but I won't hold my breath I feel it will be a failed game.
at least in zomboid you dont have a janky movement system and have more to do in game than scum. i have loads of hours in both and ngl id put more in zomboid if asked. it just sucks that scum is overly complicated to the point where it gets tiring
It's not complex at all and is way too easy PvE on Max difficulty sliders.
@@justahotdog8430complicated? Lol not even. Overly easy maybe.
I think you'd enjoy scum a bit more on the server Gordon's Kitchen. Fuel is free, water spawns in wells, loot is customized to make more sense, and there are missions to complete.
I played this game at launch and was part of a server called Territory and War, those were truly the golden years of scum. I strongly believe that ever since they added in base building , the game has just been on a downhill slope. They continued to ignore loads of bugs in favor of adding more content, which ended up producing more problems, burying the original problems farther and farther down.
Not to mention, the whole bot situation. True story, During Territory and War server many many years ago, before any bots existed on Scum, we were trying to make our server somehow better ( I eventually became an owner of the same server!), the idea of a kill feed came to mind and soon enough we reached out to a modder/hacker. Paid em, he made the bot and soon discovered that it was quite easy to get into their games files, etc. I don't know the exact terminology, but he was forced to let them know about what had happened and what he was trying to do for our server.
Approved, we were quite literally the first server to ever have any sort of bot and naturally, that same person turned around later on and decided "Hey I can make a profit from this!" I don't blame him, but soon most if not all servers were filled with bots and it ruined the game in general. Where people would have to go out and earn their gear, scavenge and get nice kills on unsuspecting players, now had been reduced to people just ordering their gear and having it dropped off to them.
I took a huge break from the game and upon my return, nothing has changed at all. They continue to just pile more and more content into the game and ignoring all the issues in the game. Top that off, I along with many others got into the beta testing, so in the discord we were able to communicate directly with them. As soon as the bots were a huge thing, no one wanted it to go away and ignored the fact that it was ruining the whole point of the game. Not to mention, many within the beta testing discord favor content over fixing bugs. I was laughed at many times and soon just left the discord all together. I cannot support a game that has devs with their heads up their asses and refuse to see the issues before them.
Thats my rant and little bit of history of Scum from my end. Heck, I even at one point had the highest viewed lock picking video. I was quite literally the first to put one up on youtube, but I had later hide it since I stopped playing the game. But its still there! Just more -now- have more views than mine since I had it hidden lmao.
i played every major update from 0.4 up until the puppet spawns drastically changed. the way they take 2 steps forward, 1 step back with every update was frustrating to play through all the time but i really liked the potential the game has so i put up with alot of those issues. but once the puppet spawn changes happened, that was enough to fully drive me away. it sucks, some days i was one of the only streamers playing that game daily and i was always rooting for it. but after almost 1k hours, optimism kinda started to go away. i genuinely hope when 1.0 happens and mod support comes in, modders will take the game to a better state. thats the only way i see many people like myself play the game again. good video, i actually found you through other videos of yours but im glad i caught this one.
Hey thank you for stopping by:) modders keep dayz community very happy! So I definitely agree with your statement! I keep forcing myself to come back with hopes that the game has changed ( even slightly) but I’m still struggling with finding that “something”
They havent been talking about mod support for years now. I doubt they will allow it. They changed the course a lot and showed that they dont really care what the players want
@@qreepyQT i hate that your probably right because i havent heard them mention it in a while.from talking to other people about it, it seems it wont be or will be in much later than 1.0 or if needed.. oh well
@@SpicyBeanDip i feel the same way about it. I dont really want to be right about this because it had so much potential. I stopped playing after supporting them so hard for so long. Now i will equally (but fair) be a hater
Yeah unfortunately
Such a disappointment. Sick of checking on updates and seeing nothing good has been added. Its so obvious what the game needs and they just refused to add it. Promising to add the obvious at 1.0 7 years later btw. It's been living on hype for too long. It was always lacking players due to its massive map and they did nothing to fix this. I streamed it for over a year and just couldn't do it anymore as it just became a repetive borefest. The devs do not like negative feedback and reward positive feedback like no one's business. Steam forums are a shocker. They just banned me. I refuse to play this game again unless Shroud recommends it. He never will. I first heard of the game from Shroud.
Was my game of all time. Until last december. (0.8 didn't like it, but well... played it) Now the only game I used to play, its uninstalled. I stayed on for 6 months after the disastrous horde update with the illusionary hope that they would bring back the spawn system (not the horde, the base spawn system)... posting regularly on the steam forums. The only word to describe it is unplayable, not because of the difficulty, but because of the HUGE break in immersion that the new spawn system added to the game.
I felt like I was walking around an empty map with trees and bushes chasing me and throwing puppets all around me. Like hell, an hostile bush, maybe 3 or 4 puppets will spawn near it....
Survival? no... the correct term for this game is, joke.
I started playing it a few months ago and honestly i enjoy it found a nice server and had a few friends join and its been a joy for us it replaced dayz for me entirely just gonna keep following the games updates and be excited for the npcs coming if they do it right
If you enjoy the game then that’s all that matters!🙏🏻
SCUM devs seemed to almost listen to the community too much. Instead of focusing on their core vision they started catering to these requests for kind of obscure and overly punishing hardcore survival features. EA development is fragile and as soon as they start going out of their way for small and highly specific feature requests things tend to get spaghetti coded. Over time the core gameplay suffers because the devs get too far ahead of themselves. Theyre creating what should be near release features way too early.
To me, it seems like they are rushing to get to 1.0 so much! The game clearly isn’t ready for that type of commitment and work. But they sure do fly through updates
If anyone doesn’t like this game and think it’s to hard just play single player for a week on solo with whatever easy settings you want to learn the basics once you learn that it’s all a cake walk from there.
Single player is the way to go for sure!
Except when you get infected from a sneeze and can't find antibiotics. Then the game isn't fun
i just want coop mode like private server i hop on with few friends. so we can cheat up to speed trough some complex stuff , and overall can goof around
this game as all games has always had lore but u can find bit and peices from 0.3 refrencing ai quests and roaming npcs its always had plans to have story content amongst the open world im still excited to see where the game goes
Thanks for the update. I've been looking into it again, and they showed the new content for the next patch. They are releasing quests that, according to the devs themselves, will allow players to do exactly what they've always been doing, but with rewards for doing them. So, they added an entirely new system that accomplishes ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, while not fixing anything that was broken about all of the other new systems that they added, just to get it ready for 1.0. So.... I think you may be right that this isn't worth going back to, even 3 months later. It hurts me. I really does. :'(
Also, it wasn't just Wardog, which I'm assuming is who you meant. I heard reports from others who were blocked. Gampires just decided that they were not a fan of critics.
It’s crazy you made this comment! I just redownloaded the game and played for an hour or so and it still is the same. And yes content creators who spoke out were blocked and bashed by the other side that supported the game no matter what. Scum community as a whole isn’t very welcoming to criticism.
jagex made scum fail.. this company is full with clowns who have no clue what they are doing.. the only "success" from jagex is a 20+ year old mmo with bad graphics and even 2 versions of it because they destroyed the original game with their nice updates (just like it is with scum).. but even this isn't really a success since runescape only exists on its bots, if they would ban them they would die in a few month.. its just sad what they did to scum, but it wasn't surprising if you look at the other games, jagex published..
I know this video is a month old and this the first ive seen of your videos, but yea man it still rings true right now. The game really changed around the .8/jagex buyout. Beda with his leaks got a virtual gag and it seems the direction of the game just took a nose dive in the wrong direction. Good video man.
It has changed soooo much ever since 0.8 and only went down hill from there! I sure hope a lightning would strike and change scum for the better but based on how things have been ever since then! I don’t think anything will change:/ it’s such a shame
I 100% agree. It breaks my heart what Scum is today. I've always been against mods for Scum, but I have to say that mods will probably save it. I've invested over 4K hours in this game, and you are right Scum 'is just not the same'. It's ruined at the moment, not only because of mechanics removed over the years (remember weapons jamming?) and, especially, the current puppet spawning system... I have to stop commenting - I'm getting really rawled up.
I miss seeing the wildlife as I explore and instead you are forced to play a mini game for it to spawn and you have it
@@Rooslahn Ja, agreed. It used to be so organic.
your voice is claiming and you have a way to keep me intrested in videos so i sub and going to start watching alot of videos
Yay made a new friend :D thank you for kind words
03:44 is that PLAYER... WarDog? :)))
You know if you know;)
That's crazy... I haven't seen many new videos by him for a while... And he was my favorite scum streamer. Damn
@@jonathanpalma713 th-cam.com/video/h7EGbZwZ2QQ/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=CasualWardog
With the horde and the spawn system they messed up bad. So bad that I stoped playing. So bad that I never bought any useless DLCs because I hesitate supporting a project what is going clearly in a very wrong direction. Removing content to replace it with broken content is not ideal. As a PvE player I went further and I play other games now. I have no hopes that the SCUM Devs might fix all the problems. Maybe they are not even really interested into fixing it.
I didnt really see this video as a good review of the game . I was expecting some actual footage of whats wrong with the game. You showed only cinematics and you spent 4-5 minutes of the video talking about other content creators shaming you for your previous review and a Dev banning Casual Wardaog on Twitter?
I would encourage you to play the game and record some footage of what you think needs to be improved. Cause i do agree that the game has issues, but i dont see the DLC's as a relevant argument for Scum's progress. Scum got bought up by Jagex so its natural they want to earn some money, which would be DLC's.
One thing that needs to be improved is the horde system like you said, but that would be one of the few things i saw as good critique
Stay positive bro👍
Scum isn’t doing it for me since 0.6
Lol
I agree. Also, I recently came back from a long break to see these things and noticed something disturbing. The remaining English speaking playerbase is very reclusive and several I've killed had vehicles full of perverse items with pink little backpacks and the other pink things and the sextoys. It seemed very... PDF file type and just perverted. Most have the ridiculous hair. I'm on another break and will return to see the 1.0 but I'm not holding out hope. Good video.
Out of all the survival games using the same engine and assets SCUM is by far the best (I've tried most of them,).
Hear hear. What makes it so great for you then?
@@AndiKoehn The attention to detail (from the clothing options to the extended health system and everything in between they went above and beyond the other games), the graphics, the addition of the mechs guarding bases and the weapons.
I got this game the day it came out. Loved it. Have over 5000 hours. My mates stopped a long while back. Sadly I can’t play it anymore. It’s not the game that it once was. It was FUN.
I can relate to you man! It’s not the same and everyone I used to play this with has quit a long time ago
fell asleep mid way, thanks for the lullaby
They gatekeep!!! Everyone knows that at this point lmao
Lol
What does that mean? I mean i know what a gatekeeper is. But what does it mean in this context?
I did play the game since 2019 till it stop to be fun at 0.8 more exactly, had 1.5K hrs of gameplay. And i agree 100% with what you saying in this video and you are not the only one who said it. Even people who have their names in the game said it and left the game after they seen how bad this game become. The game is totally DEAD. People just stop losing your time with it because is not worth it. This game is in a deep dark hole and has no way out anymore, the hole name is Jagex and they only want Scum devs to make them money, they are their slaves now is GAME OVER for live.
Totally with you on this. I LOVED THIS GAME! Two years ago. I totally understand what happened and why the studio made it choice but it just sucks cuz it's not the games fault it became a victim of it's own community.
The game seemed so ambitious and unique. It’s such a shame not gonna lie. I still hope it makes a come back
Nah, the devs are dug in now. It's heart breaking because this game was great, still needed more content but what was there was great. Now, now it's just one terrible decision after another and the devs just spit out the same bullshit over and over while nothing changes, nothing gets fixed and the game suffers for it. It's over.
Using a mouse and keyboard in a game that has this many interactions is hell
💀💀💀and this is pc game we’re talking about
You are so right!
bout 5k hours and hundreds of livestreams and I stopped playing after 0.7 as that version of scum was the best it has ever been. I have hopes that when the game releases the modding community can implement the game we used to love
What made that version better for you?
I played that version when i was first introduced to the game. And that version for me felt... Entirely unfinished and empty. Clonky and just overall ugh... I literally could not sit on the game for more than a few minutes. But i played 0.8 and thought it was better. Then 0.95 i loved! I got really into it but what sent me away and put off from playing and it was because of the player wipes. Bc they came at inconvenient times, when i was just getting a better feel for it. Got my base finally set up and all is well and boom! Player wipe. I couldn't get behind starting over and over. I get that's how the game functions. Being forced to do it takes me out. If i feel like restarting from the beginning that's cool, if i feel like doing so. But if I'm forced im just wtf i wasn't ready to start over. That really took me out. It is still in my library i sometimes log in to it just to get that feeling again. Doesn't last long anymore
Scum has some major issues, it’s called the devs. I’ve not enjoyed this game for a long time and and like you said it’s a shame as it had so much potential. To me it feels more like a console game now but I’m suspicious that that is their goal, simple it down for console to make more money.
Loved SCUM in the beginning but it began to seem like a game that had no direction or identity. A game trying to do everything while fumbling what it already had. Bizarre decisions from these devs and just all over the place direction. Not even surprised that now they've got the stupid drone thing going before they got the long talked about NPCs going that are still just being....talked about.
Great video and YES the game needs a lot of love
Hey bro, long time no see. Dude the game is so bad now i stop play it as so many people i know from the old Scum servers. I did talk with outer old Scum players and they all said the same, the game is dead since Jagex force devs to be their money making slaves. Is all over.
You know.. games need funding. Hairstyles dont bother me. It just needs love, and inclusion to increase playerbase
Its a game with great potential and a lot of stuff to do. But it is NOT a survival game yet, at best it is a pvp game with survival and rpg elements.
Also the gold+cash spawning makes it really not solo friendly so I tend to gravitate more towards dayz....
Dayz is pure survival. Scum-not so much sadly.
So your entire gripe with the game is random zombies will spawn in buildings after you've already been in them? V 0.95 now and I can't say I've had that issue, or if I did, it wasn't gamebreaking or noticeable enough to make a video saying how bad the game is and only use that as an example. Scum is still the best survival game there is right now imo. My only complaint is the 40 dollar price tag. But you can still get it for 15 on key sites
You clearly focused on one thing in this video. Watch again and take notes
bruh.. there is a bug with scopes for like half a year now.. bodys still disapear sometimes when you died (have to relog), the game crashes really often, they still couldn't handle the horde and zombie spawn situiation (even after they told us everything will be fine now), the whole gun jamming mechanic isn't in the game for over a year now, since they introduced armored vehicles you are not able to shoot properly if armor is of your car (1-2 years now?).. they do NOTHING against cheaters.. i can continue if you want, but im sure if i point everything out, this comment gets so long nobody will read it..
I had a 3 year break from this game. Came back now and wtf? Spent around 60 hours then I stopped. I got so angry. Posted a review on Steam and after I started to google if the feeling was mutural 2024 or if was just me. Then I stumbled on this channel and this video. I agree with you 100%. I wrote this on Steam before I started to google and alot of that is what you bring up in this video. Thank you for outing them!
My review:
"Thousands of hours played in this game. Had a break for around 3 years. Just came back and... wtf did you do to this game? What is this "fortnite skins" type of shit you focus on. What happened? Building is shit. I just removed a stair going to the roof and 24 pieces of the roof got destroyed. Where is the bug fixes that you did so beautiful week after week. You guys where my favourite developers. You actually cared and worked on making it better. But this?
I really don't understand wtf has happened to this game but it makes me sad. Early access still after 6 years and now you are selling dlcs in form of pimping your outfit before the game is even officially released? Shame on you for killing what could have been an amazing final product.
I’m glad there’s so many more people like you and I. Scum community tried to bash on my outlook about Scum. But what’s real is real and I knew that there were so many more people like you and I. People that genuinely cared about the game
The game fell off since they changed zombie spawning. Walking into a city and clearing your way through but now it isnt the same and i gave it try and try again. Every update they just keep ignoring the main issues. Im hoping by 1.0 maybe abit after they can resolve it and make the game the awesome game it is meant too be, but i am unsure.
You also have to mention the cheating issue and how the developers doing nothing about it.
It's funny that you complain about the horde system without understanding the hidden reason of it from a developmental pov.
I suggest rewatching the whole video again because you clearly missed the point lol
But ovrl i think scum is the best survival now
Who agrees?
Lol. It’s just plain bad.
I know this is random, but what is the name of the song being used in the background? It's calming.
The horde update was absolutely terrible... it breaks immersion, its not fun in any way, zombies spawn on top of ypu all the time and the world feels very depressing and empty... same goes for the hunting rework.
I started playing when 0.5 came out and it was funniest game to survive off scraps and as little gear possible but now the traders are a core feature that you have to get money for respawns otherwise your character gets a permadeath which forces players to interact with traders which is annoying and not fun at all animal spawns used to be great and you were able to track animals now you can’t. Now with the stupid new horde system the game has completely shit the bed clearing a area is completely pointless now due the puppets spawns constantly spawning where ever they like within your current vicinity. The map is massive which each sector have a bunker and loot that can keep players in a sector forever pretty much reducing interactions with players compare this with dayz players have to choose to stay on the coast containing low tier loot or start heading inland to compete with more players for better tier loot which is great keeps players always looking over their shoulder. In dayz your most likely going to to bump into player every hour or so unless you don’t want to be seen, but scum on the other hand I swear I never see a single soul if scum implemented the audio that dayz has for gun fire players would be able to hear players from a much further distance, the flying drone used to fly to players locations promoting pvp but that is long gone now.
This comment right here perfectly summarizes everything🤌🏻 thank you for pointing it out
@@Rooslahn it’s just good to see someone that doesn’t blow smoke out of their ass and calls out the game for what it is which it was great game now it’s not. hopefully the devs fix it before the npcs bring in even more bugs then they can play catch-up with the years worth of bugs then finally fuck off the cheaters
1.0 in 8 months from now (end of second quarter 2025 - June 2025). Expect it to land like a dull thud of shit.
Removing content and reintroducing it is not NEW content. Large Squads like 12+ can run over a server easily.
A vast majority of servers are empty. Get passed the top 100 servers (that aren't Chinese bot servers) and it's 1-4 players if your lucky.
What a waste of money.
The game initially started out strong in development, and once Jagex joined this game has simply gone into free fall.
Runescape is their only game of note and that came out in 2001.
It's worth pointing out Runescape developer Jagex announced upcoming pricing increases for Runescape membership costs.
On September 27, 2024, the price of a membership subscription will increase from $12.49 USD per month to $13.99 USD per month.
This company is simply of the old school of GREED over quality. Jagex have DLC for everything in Runescape.
The future for SCUM looks pretty bleak, and now that the game is nearly 6 years in early development its actually starting to look dated.
Still runs like crap if you have a decent sized squad. They keep adding stuff no one asked for.
The puppets run right at you.
The animals run right at you, until they flee then they run directly away from you.
The drop ships drop right on you, until they flee then ascend directly upwards.
Razors, Mr. Brenner, and Mechs come right at you they don't flee. Still predictable and boring.
Will Tec 1 officers and Hunters be any different? Probably not. They'll charge you too. Yawn 🥱
It's tired and already feels old. Hopefully the Genre of survival games will continue but will SCUM be the one remembered? Currently doubtful.
If this game has any chance of being saved it'll be done so by the modding community. This current development team simply don't have the skill set to
take SCUM to the next level. They're out of GOOD ideas and it shows.
To many content creators are laughable trying to hype this game into more than what is is. Raykit is about as successful as his servers.
Edit- Also still shitting through your pants all these years later. Pathetic. 💩
The game started with so much joy , they have just messed it up so so bad . Sad could have been a great game . A pickup truck that u can’t haul anything or even use the bed of the truck for anything , you can just go on and on . They went cheap on everything. Just lame . Mechs are lame . It’s become a computer and paste
Yeah I was hoping vehicle customization was gonna be a lot more impactful. But clearly it was meant more for PvP players. But I heard PvP isn’t even that good
scum no longer cares about its community only about the $$$ i loved this game once i have over 5000hrs + weekly vids now i cant bring myself to play it i keep hoping they will get back to what they originally planned but i doubt they will
I played it literally 3 days ago im waiting for that update and wipe and i have not seen a whole lot of bugs and i was catching chickens, goats, bears and wolves what are people talkig about? Is somebody paying you to trash talk the game every new trailer? 😂
Read the comments- you think people are liking and agreeing because I’m getting paid. Don’t be silly and wear a helmet life is tough
for me the Game dies with the Horde spawn system.
Uninstall and never played again
Dead game 85% chinisee servers only couple left even raykit is unplayable cuz of admin abuse
Just sad.
I don’t get why remove things. Why not Waite and just add the new stuff when it’s ready makes no sense I have Sean games in development get ruined by relese in these types of bad choices rember just servive they went down this rabbit hole as well
Devs blocked a lot of people for pointing things out. Their just hotheaded fools ruining their own game. They still haven't fixed puppet spawns what makes the game just not fun to play.
Scum was also the game that made me realized how fake some content creators are. They try to mask and make a game sound way better and appealing for viewers but the reality is completely different. Sickens me honestly
Why did I feel like this was a slow roast on your part lmao 😂
Lol
this game sucks so hard now it's sad
Word of advice, listen to your community when applicable lol
WHAT. Why did they partner with Jagex? The people behind Runescape. That is so weird. I have started Scum once when i bought it on release. But never played it. Guess i will wait for things to get good i think
You said it! RuneScape!😂 when you say Jagex all I hear is Transactions
@@Rooslahn Yeah membership and gold and all that
@loolgam1ng229 just sad
that just saved me 20 €, thanks!
Yeah definitely NOT worth it!👍🏻
They don't even play their own game.
You're surprised?
Yeah i think imma just keep playing dayz
100% true! You’re not missing out at all. I chose dayz over this over and over again
I love scum, but every fcking server ban asia region. I can't play . Wanted to play on asia server, it's all Chinese language.
I like this video!
Thank you!
i bought the game a week ago , i have everything i need at my base and all i do is turn in circle with a wheelbarow , i'm already bored
lol
you playing single player or something?
@@Rooslahn its true lol i have 2 car 1 avt , a ton of chest underground nobody found it yet , guns , ammo everything
The game has very few weapons. I bought this trash 6 years ago. revisiting every 2 years with no significant changes. Why anyone wants to play this car scavenging sim is beyond me. It's just a static world with poorly implemented ai.
too much physic in the game we want to have a fun !
Its always been like this. Its just that the game is unplayable now.
We had to fight tooth and nail with them to fix the metabolism system.
They failed because they didn't give a shit about their player base.
They sold the game to 3 different publishers over the course of their lifetime.
I've seen the changes they've made in the name of diversity.
Wokeness killed SCUM.
Who were the previous publishers? I didn’t know that-that’s why asking. Also yes not listening to the player base was definitely a hit in the back. I was never a part of scum community but some of those content creators were so quick to back up scum even when it was starting to go south, and the amount of hate I received from that is surreal😂 some content creators are so fake and not to be trusted😂
@@Rooslahn iceberg interactive & funbox media
@shitpostingmatters6618 ooooohhhhh
Scum is one of the best games out in that category You can do so much in this game and people don't like it because it's hard and they suck That's just simple facts
Don’t be ridiculous😂 the game had a good concept but ruined by entitlement, poor leadership and greed.
You can’t even encounter any sort of wildlife without playing a “mini game”…let me inform you-that system is in the game because the game wouldn’t handle animals running around on the server - causing too much lag and instability. So their solution to that is to have you play a mini game of “hide and track” so the game would spawn animals in your area…
They removed birds a long time ago for the same reason.
You loot one house, then come across a screamer, the house you looted earlier becomes packed with puppets again! And all of that ammo you wasted earlier was for nothing.
Once again don’t be ridiculous…
and why is it that we need to pay for gas at a gas station that's ruled by Z's...
if the gas station was ruled by a vendor i could understand the payment thing but no. we have to pay anyway which makes no FFing sense when you tryin to survive.
you have no clue what you are talking about LOL
is just a shame that even with a rtx 3090 the game runs at 40 tp 60 fps.
I have a 1080ti and run at 60+... change your settings
To be fair! 3090 should run this game with any settings (phenomenal)! Obviously there’s things he could do to improve his performance but the point is-he shouldn’t have to lol
They broke puppet spawn the old one was so much better I use to run a pve server with puppets all over now even on max it’s not that many why do they keep remaking the same things over and the game just gets worse how you take all the cars and plains out and rework them and a year laiter still not all back was exited for boses and quests barely any boss now I hear about one coming you can’t kill how dose this sound fun a quest sistam we have no idea what will it rilley be like base power Whear is it 5 years waiting I hope they can turn it around but it’s not looking good started playing once human having a blast
thats just jagex in gen go to any runescape player and ask them
Ohh I believe it hahah
I been playing miscreated
How are the servers? Last time I played it was dead dead
Same thing is going on with sea of theives its really sad
What’s happening with sea of thieves?😳
@@Rooslahn Same stuff they are not fixing the stuff that actually matters its really starting to seem like they cater to cheaters at this point
Ohhh that’s sad! I hear time to time about that game and was thinking about getting it again! I have it just was thinking about redownloading
@@Rooslahn Dont let my comment stop you from redownloading it its one of my top 5 favorite games that i put way to many hours into and i have only been playing pvp and the amount of cheating that me and my buddy deal with is just crazy and it seems like the devs do nothing to fix years old problems but keep adding stuff nobody asked for that is most the time broken itself.Anyways thanks for the vid man have good one!
It’s funny how this new generation expects everything for free. I used to buy a game for $60 and not get any DLC and enjoy the game as long as you could but now they add DLC patches bug fixes you guys want all that shit for free so when they add something that you have to pay for so that the debs could get more money for these patches and DLC‘s and upgrades and bug fixes you guys wanna bitch and moanso how do you play game before you have to pay for the new stuff you do it for free forever?
Or maybe instead of releasing new DLCs and or new content, use the base money you’ve already collected from thousands of players and use that to patch what’s already in the game instead of releasing new content and ignoring the broken system already implemented in the game? They need to stay in their lane as far as what they can and cannot handle, who lied to you that a hairstyle dlc will save the game’s performance?
For free? We paid for it and it’s not finished after all these years and just continues to be broke!
this sh!t game hasnt run since day 1
Lol
go cry to momma 🤣
I have
At least he has a mother, furry
@@JohnnyDoe141 Monkey :D
I felt that for longer then 0.8 seem there focus is gone from the game what people think means nothing to dev and I didn't buy or want Amy of the dlcs coz it seem the game is taken 1 step forward just to take 4 or 5 to the back
idk bro i got disagree on one thing, those hair dlcs and crap was easy 1-2step done content so it not really worth getting work up over.
BUT, this game got some big ol problems and needs some direction. They started off strong with the tv show ideal and having criminals fight and survive on a island and I kin da like the scifi monster stuff but the actual game and its loop....is awful and feels so unfinished and lackluster. The games wants to do pvp but there is not a lot pvp and the game wants to do pve and it is also lacking and buggy and the enemies just popping up out nowhere feels weird. The survival elements are awesome but on most servers are undermined or even removed with loot and once you combine all this you got a rather boring and empty game
The way its developing I can not see a good outcome and thats a shame
