SCUM 0.1.23.11285 update patch notes focus on bugs, exploits
The "dead game" SCUM just got a hefty patch fixing bugs, exploits, and more based on complaints from the game's community.
In response to some unkind evaluations from gamers, Gamepires would like the world to know that the team's "dead" survival game is getting a new update. SCUM last received an update in late December and some other development happenings around that time may paint a negative picture, but patch 0.1.23.11285 shows that development continues onward.

A few days ago, Gamepires' marketing manager Tena published a lengthy letter to the community that included work-in-progress info for upcoming SCUM content. The team recently moved to a new office, opening up more space for new hires. A chunk of the letter is related to complaints from the community that have been addressed in the latest patch. The Gamepires team has also been working on some updated weapon animations, a new crossbow, and some "super secret cool new stuff".
SCUM is available now in Early Access on Steam for $19.99. Stay tuned to Shacknews for additional updates.
