re: State of Decay - Open World Post Apocalyptic Zombie Survival Game - Xbox\PC

yeah im doing the same thing. I have 8 and I need 12 for the truck place. how do you get other groups to join you?

dammit. this game needs a tutorial.

if by blast you mean me constantly wondering where my people are/went with no explanation

I started over. couldnt handle marcus gone.

holy hell it does. good call sir.

so.....was a bitter sweet session late last night for me.


- i gathered the building material to move my community of 15 people from the church to the Truck Stop / Warehouse West of Marshall.
- i get them over there and am down to 3 building material with no tower, no bunks, no medical area, no workshop.
- zombies are fricking everywhere in Marshall. Infestations galore and hoards galore.
- i started by finding as much building material as possible
- started tower, medical area, and bunk.

- then cleared out all the buildings within 2-3 blocks and even made 3 outposts so i would hold the area.

i had to gather missing supplies for the medical area, bunkhouse, and workshop. which is a pain. and time consuming. cleared out 3 infestations in the area. and had a side mission to divert or intercept several hoards before they got near my community. impossible. they all converged within seconds. i cleared them tho.

between getting all this done. i ran low on ammo. low on meds and low on food. I had 5 people leave and Ed and the Pastor are sick now.







but once i got the missing pieces and upgraded the medical area, tower, and sleeping area things started going my way. ohh well i'll find new survivors.





i've got 2 good characters and 2 really really good characters.

Marcus - maxed out everything except cardio and 6 star shooting.
Maya - maxed out everything except cardio and wits.

Cooper - 4 star fighting, 4 star powerhouse, 3 star cardio
Kyra - 4 star cardio, 4 star fighting, 3 star everything else.


i gave Maya special abilities since she is star shooter. i did rifles. so the auto snap on / lock on while aiming is much better. almost immediately snaps for a headshot. AMAZING.

she is a zombie slaying master.






today before the LSU game I'm going to continue clearing the buildings within 4-5 blocks of my community, put in a garden, and a training area or library.

i hope no one else has left in the mean time. i had them all the basic additions upgraded and plenty of stock on everything.

I started over last night and began to alternate between maya and marcus every mission. ive seen that if you hit the zombies normally until they fall/crouch, then finish them off it seems to level up fighting faster.

on the other hand if you hold lb and spam x, powerhouse levels quicker.

I turned it off last night with 12 people. all stock piles over 40. noone sick or hurt. and morale maxed out. at one point I was waiting on missions. the map is clear of infestations. upgraded snipe tower,bunkhouse, and workshop. everything is perfect.

if shite goes south while im surfing today im going to melt the frick down.

eventually you'll have a community member request you go on a side mission with him to scope out new places to setup


since there isn't a published full unlocked map online, i went straight to Marshall. I had 2 options but chose the truck stop place i'm in now.

I have maxed out the first character and havent touched anyone else....I feel like I am going to regret that decisionsoon.

yeah it's a pretty good game. It can be confusing. I basically had to remove myself from the thread so I don't get any spoilers.
