>The ABSOLUTE State of Decay (three)
The first game was so good. It just needed a little polish and would've become the best zombie survival game.
>>722491168more like state of the gay amirite? lol
>>722491168>>722491387Did they improve anything from the first game?
>>722491168You know what's crazy about that trailer? Undead Labs only found about the existence SoD3 from that very trailer...MS literally made a fake SoD3 without telling the dev
Still less of an abandonware than Project Zomboid
>>722491389LOL
>>722491581>MS literally made a fake SoD3 without telling the dev
When did survival become synonymous with loads of boring busywork?
>>722491919You need to eat.
>>722491168Where is the pride flag? They showed it in the trailer, very important
>>722492039Me or my player character?
>>722492072Both
>>722492039>>722488394>>722492152Who are you
>>722491919State of Decay is one of the zombie survival games with the least amount of busywork, Project Zomboid is the real slop.
>>722492039Stop stalking me. Who are you? You are abusing your mod powers when you track me across threads you know.
>>722491438Tried both games, the most notable improvement is the multiplayer coop, is kinda like dark souls were you summon players to your world and summon yourself to them, the rewards for summoned players incentives cooperation Thrn you have a story mode, havent tried it yet.A horde defence, which gives you rewards for the normal campaing, like weapons or strong characters ThHavent played SoD 1 in a while, but something feels that is missing [aside for the pretty looking characters, seriously everyone in SoD 2 looks like a mutt, no exceptions, there is levels of uglyness in can stand, but i SoD 2 is out of the board]Overall SoD 2 plays very similar but it has more conent, you will like it.
A game like SoD but going deeper on the base / community creation aspect and completely ditching all the utterly garbage tier story stuff would be so much better holy fuck.Add proper base building, don't limit it to some random specific locations, and introduce other communities you can trade with, extort, protect, or exterminate and you've got yourself basically the best apocalypse simulator on the market.
>>722492457Survivalist Invisible Strain, but the combat is much shittier.
>>722492269Youre paranoid bro. Relax.
>>722492039I hate having to eat and drink water every 5 minutes.
>>722492381>seriously everyone in SoD 2 looks like a muttMust have mods for the game
>>722491581>Undead Labs only found about the existence SoD3 from that very trailer...>MS literally made a fake SoD3 without telling the devWas that before or after they ousted Jeff Strain in a hostile takeover?
>>722491389more like state of no game
>>722492725>puts a greater emphasis on what SoD1 tried to do with psychological traits being more than just filler so you have to balance your community around that>has a memory system that carries over between maps allowing characters to build a level of comradery with each other the longer they survive>adds another layer by giving you a Thing style paranoia from having to watch out for infected survivors >mods take it once step further adding in a romance systemIf only the combat wasn't mediocre this is the game that SoD2 should've been. Focusing more on the Sims with zombies rather than their current trajectory of making gayshit for the sake of it. You can have your rug munching dykes and flaming homos but it's there for the sake of character variety not check a box on a list.
>>722494064What's the mod that adds romance?
>>722491168>everwild>perfect dark>fable>state of decayall canceled
>>722492457i think about that and it sound good but i also think that you really need something else than zombies as a threati was thinking about semi medieval world where you fight goblinoids and various beasts would be great
>>722492457This will be Project Zomboid once NPCs are introduced in the 2070. Trust the plan.
>>722491168So is this ever coming out or is it canned?
>>722491581absolute zozzle ngl
I liked SoD2 except all the woke shit so I use >>722493671 these mods in turn with the save editor so all my survivors can be white, but what I wish for SoD3 is better bases, romance options so you fight better with your lover and take debuffs when they die, a proper party system that allows you to take people with those kinds of synergies on mission without them dying every 5 seconds, the ability to become more powerful in terms of the area and faction control, and FOR FACTIONS TO NOT GO FUCKING HOSTILE BECAUSE I DIDN'T HELP THEM GET A JENNY.GET YOUR OWN FUCKING JENNY DO YOU SEE ME ASKING YOU FOR EVERYTHING EVERY 5 SECONDS?
>>722494381I mistyped that. I really meant that the mods expand on the concept further. The basegame already has a basic companion system based on compatible traits, standing and gift giving but Zedmulate expands on it further with different event chains. If you open the mod up via ingame editor in the scripting section you will see a bunch of different options. Romance is just one aspect of it. Then in those options it expands outwards covering most avenues and giving an appropriate response based on the personality types.
>>722495168>I wish for SoD3 is better bases, romance options so you fight better with your lover and take debuffs when they die, a proper party system that allows you to take people with those kinds of synergies on mission without them dying every 5 seconds, the ability to become more powerful in terms of the area and faction control This. Actually having tangible controls on the group itself by setting policies, meeting other factions to actually discuss trade pacts, mining rights etc will go a long way. Everyone and their dog has played your loner zombie survival with busybody crafting bullshit. Few outside of Rebuild have tried the same thing at scale with the ability to nation build and dictate the future for vast populations working towards a singular idea. And if you don't want that let the AI do the heavy lifting while you move through with a tight knit group that works as a middleman between the various powers. Play the zombie equivalent of a mercenary warband or caravan company that looks to profit off the ensuring carnage.
>>722491168what the hell happened to xbox?
I couldn't find a decent difficulty preset for 2 solo between>find one good automatic and cruise to victoryand>get buggered by infinite swarms and specials on day 3Also humans are absolute cancer to fight on higher settings.I also don't get the appeal of reusing characters in new campaigns. The instances are completely separate from one another, but you can use this cheat character and skip the excitement of finding good gear or seeing your dudes grow. Yet it's presented like some core element of progression.

Yet it's presented like some core element of progression.This might be a holdover from Breakdown where the main draw was carrying a single group across different map changes as the difficulty escalates. One notable difference is rather than having a set cast of visually distinct characters you have your donut steels and whatever they were carrying prior to the jump. I liked it for seeing how many times they can survive before something kills them but because the game treats everything like a separate instance there is no real permanence shown on the character itself.
