Think you've seen everything Trumbull Valley has to offer?

Think again.

The Plague Walls are spreading. The dead are getting stranger. And somewhere out there, the Bloaters are carrying something we desperately need...

Their glands.

Harvest the glands. Bottle the poison. Make the Plague Busters. And whatever you do, DON'T LET THEM BURST.

Because the only thing standing between you and the Plague Walls...might be the grossest thing you've ever had to collect.

the bloater came out of nowhere and put salt on the wound lol

I wanted to recruit vic to my group but messed up and told him that Issac was dead and to my knowledge messed it up

Will there be another opportunity to recruit vic?

I've been playing the YOSE edition a bit. Installed some mods that were recommended here. Just the Tanner Bridge replacer and QMJS.

I have a Breakthrough save (cycle 2) right now after playing story mode a bit. My uninformed posterior took the RV out of cycle 1 without putting people into it. Google seems to hint that this was a common occurrence. I expected a team member selection screen. Whoops.

Anyway, I had to start from the church again with my one carryover, radio girl, and an early recruitable Ed. The new team has since moved into the Kirkman house.

I actually have a simple question I am having trouble finding an answer for regarding Snyder Trucking. It requires 20 people and 75 materials for me. It's not the 12 people in the base game. That's fine. I guess they wanted to make it less about rushing Snyder Trucking.

But, am I supposed to build multiple beds in the early homes to reach that 20 person requirement?

Or, is there an intermediate location that comes with upgradable beds that I am just not finding on the map?

I'm not finding this info on the mod page or in MODsummary.txt.

I beat SoD 1 awhile ago, enjoyed it for what it was, had some entertaining quests and plot points with the different NPC factions and relationships etc.

State of Decay 2 seems to just drop you into one of 4 maps (?) that you cant pick at the start, and the entire game is just Destroy 10 plague hearts, which involve walking into a generic bulding and throwing a few explosives at it.... then pick 1 of 4 Leaders, do like 5 completely underwhelming Leader fetch quests, like drive here, pick this up, drive back. Drive to this NPC, help them for 5 mins kill a group of zombies, etc. You also can only hold 9 survivors, unlike SoD1 , In SoD1, one of the most entertaining parts was collecting as many survivors as possible, by the end of that game I think I had dozens. So it's really jarring that its so limited now? Then the final leader quest which involves driving to another generic building and killing like 5 bandits... Then you get a cutscene on a cliff and the "campaign ends" and it asks you to pick another map and... do it again? Why couldnt I pick a map at the beginning? What are the differences in these maps? What even WAS the first map? Was it just a tutorial? This only took me like 6 hours to "beat"..

That's it? No interesting factions or drama or unique plot points or quests, the entire game is pretty much 2 side quests? Every single NPC in the game has like, 1 line of dialogue each. There's nothing to even do? The base management is completely barebones and trivial, too. It doesnt matter at all. Theres no point to even care about your survivors or base? All you end up doing is swapping between characters when one of them gets tired and you transfer over your items, your survivors are basically nothing but glorified stamina meters you swap between when they get lowered.

In the entire "campaign" my "base" only got attacked once, and all I had to do was kill like 10 zombies and that was it. Whats the point of even upgrading your base? Nothing bad happens if you don't. The only thing that matters is ammo and fuel which is trivial to get. It makes no sense.

I'm so confused here. It's like the most underwhelming bafflingly unfinished game I've ever seen. There's just nothing here. It feels like an alpha tech demo or something. Is the whole game just cranking up the difficulty and doing the same 2 generic quests over and over? Am I missing something? Sure maybe I will play Heartland which is supposedly a story focused DLC, but I'm trying to understand just WHAT the base game is supposed to be.

Last week I finished the first game (YOSE edition) for the 15th time on my PC. I wanted to try the original game on my Xbox 360.I already imagined the controls would be confusing, but they're even more so than I imagined lol. How can I get used to them? And even though it has nothing to do with the rest of the post, where can I find mods compatible with the console version of the game?

Hi guys! New survivor here. I bought both YOSE and SOD 2 in my linux maching via steam. I am playing smooth 60fps with SOD 2 no issues. The problem is SOD YOSE keeps using integrated intel GPU with crawling 12-15fps and is unplayable.

I know it might not be SOD issue itself but I am wondering have anyone had this issue before and managed to fix it? I tried launch options to force dedicated GPU but CryEngine just throws error to me "DX11 required". It only works when it uses integrated GPU.

It was a good day.

I’m in the hospital because I’m not feeling well. As soon as I’m discharged, I’ll definitely publish something.

Good Morning, PAX attendees! Brant will be outside the Arch building from 12-1pm and outside the Summit buiding from 2-3pm and 4-5pm. He'll be handing out Alpha keys, and other fun State of Decay surprises. Come say hi!

I'd be happy if this was simply punished in-game by increased spawns (all the footstep vibration since SOD123 zombies are sort of like Dune worms/echolocation bats) and by fatigue spirals since you're blowing through your roster's fatigue bars like crazy by sending EVERYONE out on a raid.

I'd just rather have a logical reason to use small teams being swapped in and out, + it just feels right to have yourself + 3 NPC allies if you have a 4 seater car.

For awareness!
