Have you experienced some performance problems when visiting Samobor City in SCUM? If so, the September 20 Patch brought some needed improvements to address the situation.
Samobor City is one of the biggest cities in SCUM. While the place looks nice, it is notorious for hogging up system memory. To help solve the issue, developers made major optimizations in the September 20 Patch. However, this doesn’t come without a cost.
You see, to reduce memory consumption, many buildings in Samobor City had to be closed down, so you cannot enter them for the time being. According to the developers, they might open these buildings up again as soon as they find a better way of solving the problem.
Here are some of the other bug fixes implemented in this update:
- Fixed the visual bug on the Mk18 malfunction panel.
