SCUM - Community showcase

[h3]Hello Prisoners! We hope you’re having a great Tuesday! Here’s another Community showcase featuring what our talented community has been up to. Here we go![/h3]



Sun in my eyes, this one is in for a katana makeover.

The guns are smoking hot…and the guys are just trying to keep up.

Not messing around with his protein intake.

Gives a whole new meaning to the words nose piercing.

How she looks at you when you make a “funny” joke.

Just your average pretty flower appreciation post.

They are coming for you.

When the armsdealer says the best he can do is half off…so you just go and steal his stuff.

Sometimes you just have to lay back and soak in the sunset.

All we can say is: beautifully put together.

SCUM - Update on PlaySafe ID

[h3]Our partnership with PlaySafe ID over the past two months has started to show some promising results. Check it out![/h3]

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

As anyone who's a had a bad run-in with cheaters can attest, their impact on the overall experience of the game could be devastating - especially in a game that is as hardcore as SCUM.

Combating this is no small feat, and with PlaySafe ID, we are slowly gaining the necessary edge we need to start meaningfully fight back against cheaters.

Two months ago, we've started to introduce PlaySafe ID to a handful of servers, and the results that we have show promise:



We've been quite pleased with the response that we've received, and we've seen a steady increase of interest for PlaySafe ID signups as players report significantly fewer issues with cheaters on servers. We're happy to see this collaboration going forward and because of this, we've decided to expand the number of servers that utilize PlaySafe ID which you can see in the list below:

  • 195.181.170.67:13058 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 – Europe
  • 195.181.170.67:13186 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #3 - Europe
  • 195.181.170.67:13314 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #4 - Europe
  • 98.142.3.91:20002 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 – US East
  • 98.142.3.91:20102 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #3 - US East
  • 172.240.69.131:20002 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 – US West
  • 172.240.69.131:20102 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #3 - US West
  • 170.23.43.245:20002 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #1 – US Central
  • 170.23.43.245:20102 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 - US Central
  • 78.111.102.152:20002 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #1 – South America
  • 80.240.101.101:20002 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #1 - South Africa
  • 80.240.101.101:20102 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 - South Africa
  • 188.42.122.156:20002 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #1 – Singapore
  • 188.42.122.156:20102 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 - Singapore
  • 79.127.249.94:8194 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #1 – Russia
  • 79.127.249.94:8322 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 - Russia
  • 78.111.102.152:20012 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #1 – Brazil
  • 78.111.102.152:20102 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 - Brazil
  • 51.161.198.209:20002 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #1 - Australia
  • 51.161.198.209:20102 - SCUM Server Official PlaysafeID #2 - Australia


Make no mistake, we're very much aware of the concerns that you have voiced with regards to signing up for PlaySafe ID. That is why we'd like to emphasize once more that:

  • PlaySafe ID signup is completely optional. You do not need it to play SCUM.
  • It will NOT be enforced and utilized on existing servers.


If you have additional questions or would like to learn more about PlaySafe ID, you can watch our Q&A session on our YouTube channel:
