What to expect from the SCUM update 0.85
The long-awaited update 0.85 for the survival game SCUM is finally here and brings a lot of interesting new features and improvements. From a loot rework to a completely overhauled hunting system and new weapons – there's a lot to discover! In this article, you'll find everything you need to know about the new update.
Loot rework and more control for private servers
Looting in SCUM is made much more enjoyable by the update 0.85. Loot will no longer be reset when a server restarts, making looting more important. In addition, preparations have been made to give private servers more control over the loot on their servers in the future.
Revamped Hunting and Stamina System
The hunting system in SCUM has been completely revamped with the 0.85 update, requiring more skill from players. The stamina system has also been adjusted: instead of immediately reducing maximum stamina, there is now a buffer zone that allows for more flexibility.
Portable Heat Sources, Generators, and Cooking System
The update has introduced portable heat sources such as gas stoves and electric stoves that require gas or electricity. Additionally, generators have been added that run on gasoline and can provide power to everything in their vicinity. The cooking system has also been overhauled: to cook, players now need a cookbook with recipes. Depending on the recipe, different ingredients and utensils such as pots or pans are required.
Rocket Launchers, Mechs, and the City of Krsko
The 0.85 update also brings new weapons to the game: rocket launchers such as the AT4 and RPG-7 have been added to fight against Mechs. These Mechs have also been improved and are now stronger and more dangerous. Additionally, the city of Krsko has been introduced as a new location - an abandoned city east of the power plant, plagued by nuclear hazards.
Cigarettes and Cannabis: New Items with Effects
In addition, cigarettes and cannabis are now available in the game, each with their own effects on the character. Negative effects such as nicotine or cannabinoid poisoning can also occur.
The 0.85 update for SCUM brings many exciting new features and improvements that make the gameplay even more intense. If you don't already own the game, you can get your Steam Key for SCUM from Keyfuchs and dive straight into the survival adventure!
