SCUM recently got a new update that improved the anti-cheat system and fixed tons of bugs.
The developers have fixed an issue where igniting the flares would cause the game to crash. Besides being annoying, this bug was sometimes getting exploited by some players. Additionally, developers have improved the anti-cheat system to reduce the number of cheaters/hackers. Hopefully, the first wave of anti-cheat methods can significantly enhance the gaming experience.
