BASIC INFO:
Platform: Xbox series S
Issue type: Gameplay
Game mode: Online Official
Server Type: PvE-Conflict
Map: Exiled Lands
Server Name: 2506
Bug Description: No matter where I build my base the purge won’t start and I’m met with the constant error of, “ purge base doesn’t have any place to set up “ I have tried building all over the map and still no success in actually activating a purge.
Bug Reproduction: I built bases all over the map but the purge won’t spawn. I’m met with the error message and that’s it. I’ve tried building with and without gates, with and without doors and different combos of both. I’ve tried activating the purge without any doors. I’ve tried activating the purge in all sizes of bases and even without a base out in the open. I’ve attempted activating the purge at different times of day in all different forms of weather. Still no purge. I know I’m missing out on this new update and have been playing for years and would love to have access to this experience. Please respond back to me and fix this asap.
Greetings VexSmoothie!
Thank you for reaching out to us.
In order for us to properly assess your issue, could you please send us the following screenshots:
1 - One screenshot of the Purge message that appears in your screen, preventing the Purge from spawning
2 - One screenshot of your base’s location pointed on the map
This is due to server processing when there are more than 10 players online, in 1977 it’s the same thing, if you enter at a time when there are a maximum of 5 players, all hectacombs come normally, when it starts to fill up with people, forget it, it just gives you the same message , this is because ■■■■■■ uses one of the worst servers GPortal, in SCUM those who are opening private servers are changing to ping perfect because their servers are better in quality
In that base that you’ve showed us, have you perhaps tried to move the Coffer closer to the doors or even remove a couple of walls to see if the purge starts? We understand this might be counterproductive against a purge, but if you’re willing to try it, please let us know if it helps with spawning it.
Moving it closer does help and I’ve been able to get the purge to start thankfully. Another issue is that I can’t seem to get the mercenary banners to work. They just don’t seem like they want to be placed anywhere.
