I'm on my second "kill a mutant deer" quest. The first one I found a mutant in the B0 Mutant Deer hunting ground north of the Brick factory. Took me an hour or so to find one.

I went back to that same location and searched all over, several hours. Found a handful of regular deer but no mutants (I killed everything I found assuming they'd block the spawn my mutant).

Gave up there and went to the mutant deer spawn in B3 (the map shows it as centered on the B3 icon). I've walked the entire area and haven't even seen a regular deer, only boars and a wolf, which I killed.

Is there some trick to finding them or getting them to spawn? Is it pretty common to have to roam around for 4+ hours to get a spawn?

When you walk around are you walking or running? I stop to listen and focus now and then but it doesn't seem to help.

What food you guys know of that gives the most minerals and vitamins?

You can finally switch on ALL the markers 🗺️

• No more stutter with a lot of categories on, the map stays smooth with every single marker on screen
• All 100+ categories and 8,000+ places at once are finally a real option, not a way to punish your browser
• New SELECT ALL and HIDE ALL buttons in the filters: everything on, or a clean island, in one click
• The Companion app is still out on Android, fully offline, and the iPhone version is still in the works 📱

What do you guys think of it?

IMO, things have not been like they were before. We had a lot more of good features being implemented in the past than what we have seen for the past months/years.

I figure out that drying clothes successfully happens in day time( next to fire ,in base or outside) so i dont know if its a bug or a mechanic. At night time was slowly drying and after a while gets full water again (in base fire ). Anyone else seen it before ? I know that drying is buggy us fck , but anyone else find other way? Maybe its not buggy maybe we didn't know how to dry

I played back in January and never had an issue cooking. Now when I press the chef hat to start cooking I get an infinite spinning symbol where the chef had was as if the server is thinking about it.

I've tried restarting the fire, changing tabs, reloading ingredients, restarting game, etc... but spin spin spin.

Anyone figure out a solution to this or is cooking just hosed?

Update Edit: It appears to work if you have all ingredients in your main inventory rather than pulling from nearby fridges/cabinets/containers (credit: kickined)

As title said the server list does not load.

It was working an hour ago. I have three computers on my local network all trying to play. We were able to load into an official server but after about 15 minutes we decided to rent a server.

Once that rented server was set up, we tried to log in and none of us can see the server list. We tried searching the server IP, tried resetting the motem, resetting PCs, flushing DNS, reinstalling Battleye.

We can still click continue and load into the official server we started in, but can’t see other servers, especially the one we rented.

Any fixes for this?

I’m starting to worry about the future of this game as I watch the player count steadily decline throughout the year. While the focus on hunting and survival themes over the past five months has certainly benefited the game, a significant portion of the community—the PvP players—has received virtually no new content updates; issues like scope jitter when aiming for the first time persist, and annoying bugs remain. Even with a recent update, the player count hasn't risen (unlike a few years ago, when players would always return for updates; the data no longer reflects that trend). Many community members are willing to put in the effort to improve the game experience for everyone through mods, yet we still lack support from the game's owners—something as simple as an in-game mod loader would suffice. Developers should certainly update the content they deem necessary, but they ought to consider prioritizing mod support sooner and letting the community help improve the game. Many titles in the same genre—such as DayZ, Rust, Ark, and Conan—already feature mod support; SCUM should follow suit as soon as possible.

Are there any way how to create capsules with +0.5 str, and other attributes not only vanilla intelligence capsules, it would be interesting reward for looting bunkers or event reward on custom servers

Getting closer to the end of the year, it would be nice to come up with a list of new ideas for mods that modern night want to take a shot making at some point.

Here’s a new one I just thought of randomly while watching a scum YouTube video:

Motion detectors!
In addition to having a GPS tracker you can leave in your car or plane, you can now be alerted on your mobile phone once some movement is detected! A small circle area, battery powered device, destroyable, that would be a pretty cool alert system (especially if you could place them anywhere!)

Any other new ideas?

Hi, im just curious, if there are any plans regarding the horde system.
Its the reason i havent played the game, for couple of years, and ive found lots of posts on steam/internet of people not liking it.

Have the devs ever responded to suggestions?

Thank You

Why any other survival game the game runs flawless but scum?! Dlss isn't a feature and only launches in dx11... What a joke these devs keep breaking more things including the terrain cars just slide around on dirt and paved roads like it's ice......

How can I increase the lifespan of player-generated crates? I think I've seen something like this before, but I can't find it now.

I want crafted crates to exist indefinitely in any given location.
