Having problems in building

Someone said that before me:

Now I cannot anymore.

I used to use the improvised wardrobes as shelter when I was on the roofs of buildings in the city and at police stations. Why I cant do that anymore?

You cannot build things on roofs of buildings or inside of buildings since a couple of patches ago. Players used that to exploit the game to make unraidable bases.

The issue with the setting not being applied correctly is being investigated.

Too bad. It was great fun to build everywhere. :-(

i have base building open but its still not letting me build in town at all

Still unable to build at the poi that I already built at. If someone tries to raid I have no way to rebuild afterward. Almost 2-3 days of this.

The base building is atrocious in Scum, they should just get rid of it and go back to just house fortifications instead and balance out the lock picking to prevent macro lock picking exploiters.

Well, truthfully I like the base building it just serves no purpose in the game. If you build it they will lock pick anything you have. If you put palisades in front they will bomb it. To balance it they should definitely find some good balance between base raiding and base defending. Right now it feels like the lean is toward base raiders.

You're right there. I see so many new players come to the game spend hours and hours building a base and getting a good loot stash only to have someone raid it all within 10 minutes. This is exactly what drives so many players away from the game.

Uh, that’s not possible as far as I’m aware.

I have players on my server that, until the latest patch, had built almost everywhere : inside bunkers, in the city (putting flags on the ground and stuffs inside buildings and on roofs) and we all agree that it was really funny and challenging.

why you say "unraidable bases"? With some time and patience it was possible to slowly buy surely raid everything.

Also I remember a very good fight from the skyscraper's roofs using wardrobes as protection. And it was big time fun when we saw someone building a palisade over there....

Now, there are based built in city and those are REALLY unraidable because of this "patch" and that's disappointing because nobody can make a decent shelter anymore to defend from base owners while they are literally barricaded inside self made bunkers.

IMAO you have spoiled a big fun.

Recently encountered issues with base building should be resolved with this week's hotfix. Sorry for any inconvenience !

I'd like to see vary rare (found only) item of combination (number) padlock. but still wont help if they use explosives I guess. just something to put on one chest with your rare gear.

Would need to somehow make the chest with it unmovable once its palced or griefers would just take it and let it expire just for the sake of it. End of the day tho, loot if easy enough to re-aquire, just some things you might not ever seem to find.

I havent come across a Kar 98 since the 0.4 patch for example.

Does that include a balanced base building/raiding ratio ?.

What exactly do you mean by that?

Like a player may have to spend up to 100 hours building a secure base and finding enough locks to try secure his gear which also could him hours to farm all the loot only for someone to come in with a maxed out thievery character to pick lock or blow their way in within 10-20 minutes. That isn't balanced at all.

Picking locks is really hard in this game. It the same lockpicking mechanics as Skyrim but a lot harder.
