SCUM Software Compatibility Checklist: What Should Developers Publish?
Closed threadI think one of the most overlooked parts of gaming software websites is the compatibility section. Sometimes you find a product page with plenty of descriptions but almost no useful information about supported systems. I'd like to see developers publish a proper checklist: 1. Supported SCUM version. 2. Supported Windows versions. 3. Hardware requirements. 4. Last verified date. 5. Known limitations. 6. Maintenance status. 7. Update history. It doesn't need to be complicated. Just give people enough information to understand what they're considering. Anything else you'd add?

Update history. Definitely.
I'd include troubleshooting information too. People need to know where to start when something doesn't work.
And don't advertise compatibility without actually verifying it.
A simple page with all this information would be better than 100 Discord messages.
Agreed. Transparency saves everyone time.
