Cant find your friends in the map
You and 2 other friends find a nice server and join. Thn the questions start "Where are you? ım at c4" Other ones say d1 and a2.... So they just turn off the game.. There HAS to be an option to start with your friends or at least in the same sector. I didnt know this was a running simulation...

That's like 2 days worth of gameplay out of something as simple as getting somewhere with your friend. Getting geared up and properly feeding yourself IS THIS GAME. If they just hand you everything you need and place you next to someone to hold your hand, you might as well just play PUBG or BF or something else. If you're looking for instant PvP action or you NEED to be with your friends all the time, this probably isn't the right game for you.


Have to agree with the most of things written here. The emphasis of the game is on survival and not so much on " immediately finding your friends to spend some quality time together ". It will take time and effort to meet up ingame, but it will be rewarded in the end with a feeling of accomplishment. SCUM aims to reward patience and planning in the long run ( that's why we have the whole METABOLISM system in there for an example ). Once more features are implemented in the game - the teaming up part can change and become easier or harder ... we will see.

I honestly believe the Devs promised a game they cant provide, it doesnt even have half of the features they promised would be implemented upon releasing to early access, no sign of them coming either if the last couple of updates are anything to judge by.

take note of miscreated devs, their team promised a lot from their game too and its coming in the full release update soon... problem is theyve already lost all of their player base due to taking so long to fulfil the promises.

and that game has more content and runs smoother than scum with zero desync. if you want to keep players i suggest you guys start prioritising the stuff that matters and the stuff you have promised to deliver before its too late, i bet youve already witnessed a huge drop in players

Chop a tree
Make a Dozend Clubs
Suicide
Spawn in the same sector as you friends
Meet in the middle

<15 minutes

All Survival games are running simulators. Without that the "Survival" tag is a lie

yeah that shouldnt be necessary, its a game, games are supposed to be fun to play. crafting a dozen clubs to suicide from the get go isnt fun, its down right annoying and a waste of time.

letting people select a zone but restricting the zones with good gear would suffice.

Agree on that "Suicide to move is a issue"

Maybe best would be the ability to call in a Helicopter for Transport, costs 100 FP.

Setting a spawnposition for new players can be exploitet. You could simply restart a character every time you want to go to something special

I saved this coment to use in the future when ppl ask for local spawning and the basic direction of the game. this should be a MUST READ in the game along with the EA warning no1 seems to inderstand lol

That's the exact problem with some people in the gaming community now they don't understand that early access means that its not done, NOT DONE, exactly what everyone does not understand lol

I wonder when people start asking "how to end the game faster? I didn´t thought this was a playing simulator!"
