Game has come a long way in the last 10 years. While it is not SWG, it does fill the Star Wars MMO hole taht is there.

8/10

Only got to play the game for about 36 hours so far (Rest was spent at main menu trying it connect) but in those 36 I feel like I got enough info the review this game. So first off this is a survival MMO that borrows (not flat out copies) ideas from a lot other survival games out there. Crafting, gathering, combat, FPS and how the game runs are all very smooth. The one and the best thing IMO this game does is that you have to stay moving, because your Hex (server zone) you're in will wipe every 2-7days. So you can't stay in one place too long, also because all the stuff you gather doesn't respawn. Also all the servers are linked and you can travel between them (US West, US East, Europe, Etc) but it will take some time moving through your zones to get to them. Now all that being said yes, the game had bad server issues at launch and was up and down for 3 days, and yes now they are shutting them down for 7 days. But Conan was worse, it was up for 3 days and was unplayable so they took the servers offline for 2weeks. Atlas was bad too, it was unplayable for almost 5 days for most people who were not on right as it came online and left the starting area as soon as they could.

Don't listen to the salty people that have flooded with bad reviews about server issues and not a solo friendly game. Most of them don't know how most of these games launches go and or got wiped by bigger groups because they don't understand that if you play solo in a survival game that you can't just do what you want. if you're going to solo you have to play different, you can't drive around on a big ship through the middle of the map, and no expect to be chased down and looted. You have to play smart, get a small really fast one person ship, hide your base ontop of a mountain using a spider walker.... This game is 100% solo if you play smart.

Great game, they've updated this almost every few months since it come out with new content. 10/10

If you're looking for a new game to try you really should give Scum a try! if you have not tried Scum in a long time, you should come back!

Scum has come such a long way since its launch, it was rough at start but has got a lot better. The building system, bow and cars have made the game so much more enjoyable. They've made a whole lot of major and also small improvements over the last few months and it shows. 9/10 Devs keep them updates coming!

Class balance is a joke, cash shop is a joke, and game play is meh.

The game is filled with Chinese that only want to grief NA players, least the Telmun server. The game is ran by dev's that don't care about anything else than what new skin they can charge you $20 for. Armor set skins.. 50-200$, 15$ for an outhouse that after the April fools event the buff it gave went away, 20$ month sub... I mean the whole game is nothing more than a cash grab. The combat is crap, hit boxs are crap, whoever has the highest ping wins. Stay way from this game and stay away from the Telmun server.

-On edit-

Also they say its an EA title, it's not, the MMO is just a re-packaged version of LIF: Your Own, which has been out since 2015.
