State of Decay 2 is a zombie apocalypse survival simulation like no other, and we've got some tips to get you up and running (literally).
State of Decay 2 is by no means a perfect game, but for fans of the franchise, and fans of zombie media in general, it's an unmissable experience that will keep you hooked for hours and hours. It's also deceptively complex.
State of Decay 2 features base-building mechanics, a subtle, but rich role-playing game (RPG) layer, and various intersecting sim features that can either make or break your nascent survivor community. Here are some basic tips to help you get started, without spoiling the joy of discovery.
In State of Decay 2, you manage a whole community of survivors, and each member has their own unique traits and stats. The way these systems intersect impacts the efficiency of your community, and while the game doesn't telegraph them too strongly, there are menu systems where you can view how a character's behavior might be impacting your community.
Despite playing for dozens of hours, I'm still discovering new bonus character traits and skills, but there are a few basics that come with every character:
[...]
- Cardio governs your stamina levels and endurance.
- Wits can improve your scavenging and stealth skills.
- Fighting affects your capabilities in melee range combat.
- Shooting improves your skills with guns.
