Best tips for SOD 2: 1st: Check the land to know where things are. 2nd: Make sure you search all the buildings. (Even small items pay off later on) 3rd: Spend at least ten minutes or less running around your base to get a player's cardio maxed out quickly. 4th: Keep people who are goofballs, tell tales, nurturing, and zombiegame players. They increase your morale and mood of everyone. 5th: Total number of outposts are 6. One of each and the sixth one will be either water or power. 6th: Make sure you have a computer skills, medical skill, construction, mechanical skill, fishing and or lichenology skill. 7th: Do not keep people who want to fight all the time, have a bad attitude, or bossy attitude in your community. They will always be unhappy. 8th: Keep a van or two at your base to leave sacks of supplies ready if you are ever low. 9th: Watch out for bloaters. They mess up your party. 10th: Juggernauts eat too damn much. 11th: Screamers are just too loud. 12th: Hordes are the gangs of the land. 13th: Ferals got a hit on everyone. Lastly and most importantly: Build a farm to support your food or medicinal needs for your base. *Important Tip:* Before you beat the game, equip every character with items that you will want them to carry over for the next community. And yes, this includes gas cans, ransacks, guns, bullets, weapons, facility mods, etc.
@@SealsLoveAseel Statement: No stages. Just three different maps and all have at least 10 or more plaque hearts that require you to destroy them. But, be aware, each one will get harder to destroy with more zombies (aka zeds) coming to defend them. So, once you get your base in full gear to where resources won't be a problem, be sure to have enough fire bombs, mines, and grenades to destroy each one.
@@jacobtolliver4945 it is not about who uses the rucksacks. It is which ones you need. For each one you have, use them when your supplies is low. Be it food, fuel, medicine, construction, or ammo. Each one is meant for your community. So, keep them all and or use them to trade if you have to. If that's what you are asking.
For the 1st base, I built the infirmary, the workshop, and water collector. Best way to start off keeping every one happy is with the basics stuff like that. 2nd: Gather enough bags of supplies and save them once you reach your limit. Also, keep most books you find should someone in your community doesn't have a skill. 3rd: At the base of 1500 influence, make at least a garden for either food or medicine with some who has specialized in gardening. 4th: Stack up on as much plague samples as possible. The more, the better. And great video guide too. Loved it.
I love this game but I get so overwhelmed with how much people need from you, and how weak characters are in the beginning, I love the game tho, the feeling of losing someone i had from the beginning was painful, but i learned from it.
Oh yes. It can be annoying at first, but worth it after you build them up. That's why I try to keep them alive after everything I do for them be they assholes or not.
To be fair, at least in runs where you went through the tutorial, your group is a bit "special" in that your group is one of the first to even know about and how to produce a cure for the Blood Plague. Also, certain enclaves are better than others. The "Soldiers" for instance will be far better in a fight than one of the "Pathetic Survivors" enclaves. Keep in mind, you are under no obligation to help other Enclaves, you can just ignore them and still survive just fine, the benefits they offer are, for the most part luxuries that are not necessary to survive. Hell, you could even go around threatening Enclaves to turn them hostile and then kill them in order to loot their corpses (just be careful about doing this on higher difficulties, as hostile survivors on higher difficulties can, and will, one-shot your survivors with a headshot if given a chance, in which case it's better to wait for them to get a mission where they ask for help because they are being overrun by zombies, and if you do that mission, those survivors will all die and turn into zombies themselves, allowing you to loot their corpses once you kill the zombified survivors).
My pc is over 3 years old and for the hell of it I downloaded this on my pc after purchasing it for xbox and to my surprise everything was set on high as default and a smooth 60fps with no drops. I have a gtx 970 and i7 4770k. My point is you can build a cheap gaming pc and play a lot more than strategy games. I now prefer to play decay on my pc over my X. Looks great on X but once again another game launches without the 60fps. I will never understand why they choose 4k 30 over 1080 60.
Two bloated zeds can kill any character fast in under a minute if they explode next to your players. Y'all keep that in mind and stay away from them. One quick way to kill them is throw a motorcocktail on them or head shot.
Lmfao, I was just playing State of Decay a few hours ago, and right now I was playing gears 5 when I read your comment. I miss Dom. I know I'm 9 months late but wanna roleplay, bro, I'll be Marcus.
The thing about this game I do not like is the time limit on missions like stop putting so much in front of me especially when I'm just starting out goodness sakes 🤣
I'm a little late to the party but the answer to your question at the end: Yes! This video was excellent for understanding things in the game that I didn't know. I quit a lot of times bcuz I sucked so bad bcuz I didn't know how to do different stuff. But your video helped immensely. Thanks!
Awesome Video! Your video was a great help to me and my friend. We just got the game yesterday and was a bit overwhelmed, Thank you for clearing all the confusing stuff up! :D
Glitches I like to exploit: I put rucksacks of resources in trunks of cars for safe keeping around perimeter of bases, they seem to never despawn. Park cars and trucks to block entryways, or make a serpentine to make it harder for zeds to get inside as fast, especially juggernauts and bloaters, the vehicles provide extra stand off distance so you can take them on without being overrun on all sides, it also helps keep your unarmed survivors from recklessly trying to run out and fistfight every zed and get hurt or killed. Just my .02 I am very new to game.
The problem I'm having is that no matter how much food and materials I get my resources meters are always in red. Do I have to feed every character by taking control of them?
I don't have one thing clear. What is the meaning of having the energy and water to a structure? They work anyway even without these... So why in the status you can see that they have water or not, and same for energy? If they are not necessary... (I just noticed mood with light is increasing, but not the functionality of the building)
Is there any way to swap out what’s in your pockets for quick use? The only way I see to do it is to drop everything and then pick up what you want for quick use (pockets)first. Not ideal.
Luna Valeska its not so much about wrecking zombies with a crazy arsenal as it's about thriving and surviving the zombie apocalypse. much more unique compared to most zombie games in that way. it is an amazing game but I wouldn't want people going out and getting the game expecting one thing and its something a little different
How do you level up your farming skill or is it only with books? How do you make repair kits when your skill is to low to make them? Anyone else have a problem where you get sent on a mission on the other side of the map and you need to blindly drive through infected areas only to have your vehicle explode because you ran over too many zombies so now you have to run all the way back? Or was this just me.
Hi buddy thanks for sharing all this. Is your twitch pic wide eyes with white shirt looking to your left? I can't see state of decay game streams from you on there :( paradise central? :(
Nice video, I’ve been playing this game for a few weeks just completely overwhelmed, but it in a good way. I loved the tip about searching libraries for books.... Duh 🙄 I felt so stupid. I’ve been looking for books 🤦🏾♂️ Good video tho.
I own the game, but know absolutely nothing about it... until now that is! Great video ❤️ I am going to try and play single player, at least until I get the hang of it. Can my player really perma-die??
If your character is about to die during a battle, be aware that even if you turn off the game, they will still die when you turn it back on. So, keep your characters safe and healthy.
I bought my first xbox one s on February and only played gears games but im wondering does this game need xbox live to play or those it have offline mode cause im really interested in this game
Yea same. I bought it for my pc n my bro gets game for free n he plays with me from his xbox downstairs lol. Just started playing tho maybe like 2 hours in. Hope game gets more intriguing so far it’s decent but something needs to spicen up
I have a question... I have 2 things built in my base one provides 3 meds a day and the other provides 3 food a day but days have past and i got nothing out of them. Yes i habe water and yes i have power so someone plz help
how do pcs play together? I am not seeing any invites from any other player when they invite me. I can only invite other players, how do i bring up the menu to join a friends game?
I hate exploding vehicles in video games. It's already proved that in real life your vehicle will not explode even if you shoot it directly at the fuel tank. Of course explosions can happen but it's so unlikely, no matter how much damage you do to it.
Vorschlaghammer you mean fictional. The way I was taught when I was younger was to replace fictional with “fake” so.. fictional =fake Non-fictional= not fake
Good video man, I’ve been trying to figure out how to work my home base thing out. I now have around 7 or 8 survivors and my base isn’t cutting it as far as space
I’ve lost one of my characters who was a Hero so the morale plummeted at the base😩.Will it get back to normal in time or should I start a fresh game? The base is fully stocked with goodies too lol.
Best way is to make everyone a hero. The more heroes, the stronger everyone is even if one dies. But keep all alive. Once the character dies, you never see them again at all.
I honestly have to thank you. They did such a terrible job with the tutorial and this games mechanics that I don't know if Ill go back and play it but this tut helped me out. The game is just a horrific mess of awkward controls and bad game design. It feels nothing like the first one. Who uses the LB to sprint? Oh and that jumping animation... Was the gravitational pull of the earth increased cause characters can only jump 2 inches off the ground. Glad it's free cause I would be angry if I had paid for it.
infinite cognizance so not quite the auto unload from sodc1 but still better than grabbing one running in to your storage and running back to the car again... thanks... this helps alot
This game is a little confusing. I bought it because I saw it and it looked fun. Never played the first one either. However, a lot of stuff goes unexplained in the actual game and I’m left to figure it all out on my own which isn’t a problem, but a little in game tutorial would help out a lot. This video made life a little bit easier.
This video is helpful but i am still confused sort of. When i switch to different characters and go scavenge and do a mission or whatever and I come back and the survivors i was using are still super depressed and injured and i cant do anything to get their health to max again. I feel like a total noob but im lost af lol
If your character or characters are depressed, then it means you need certain things in your base or have to build a certain facility to increase the mood. As for them being injured, keep a medical facility in all your bases. Make sure someone has a skill in the medical field. Now, if you have some that just has a bad attitude all the way around and they still start shit after you give them what they need, kick them out.
i just stated THis game i know is an older game ..But i really like it ..wish id sen it before .. By the way with this info .. it was hart to start Off ..Ty awesome video ..and a way to explain it .. Kuddos to the comment's alot of good resorse there ..
So I am having a good time with the game but for the life of me I cannot seem to keep the people at my base happy. I have an issue with bag space and it seems like I am constantly having to go back to base just to clear my bags. Its starting to feel more like a chore and I am hoping its just my play style. If you could fast travel to your base this game would be perfect. As it stands right now its a little more hardcore than I anticipated. I am going to start over and give it one more go.
I pick up backpacking for the +1 slot, and am now disciplined with what I take. You can't take everything! Only specific loot runs for what you need. I think it's quite balanced. The zombie fighting seems either too easy, unless you're fighting 15+ plague zombies and a freak shows up. But that adds to the suspense when you're almost dead in combat :D
+Seneca yamma taking stuff out the supply locker doesn't effect anything like it effected the last state of decay it took your influence doesn't do it on number 2 and it doesn't effect you or your base.
I know right, I kind of liked the idea of it costing influence. I feel the game is a little easy so far. Played maybe 15 hours, no deaths or troubles yet :)
+Seneca yamma I have pre ordered the standard so I can play it tomorrow at midnight and if you are on Xbox hit me up with some co op I was good at the first one so I'll probably be just as good
I really love these survival games but I really love a zombie survival game in a CITY. Days gone, This, and DayZ all have wide open areas. Just imagine an I am Legend kind of scenario going inside malls, building etc. Yeah I know Dead rising but... I want something more realistic. Like a last of Us open world but just after a few weeks of outbreak. Lot of zombies, lot of loot left in groceries, shops etc, and in a freakin' city.
101Bancho if you think about it a city is the last place you want to be in the zombie apocalypse. too high of a concentration of people. everything would be looted already and the sheer number of undead assholes would pretty much ensure your death by day 3
James Dobson That is why it would be the best setting for a game. Remember what I wrote, only a few days or weeks of outbreak. Not yet able to get out of the city yet.That would be intense!
Hmm I think it would be good for a zombie shooter. More of a FPS action style, I don't know if it would work as well in a SOD survival sim type game. I don't really like left 4 dead or dead rising type games or zombie shooters in general. I do love SOD though. Its just the kind of game I'm into. I think a couple weeks after the outbreak maybe even months after there would still be millions of zombies in big crowded cities. remember they don't need anything to survive so unless the military bombed out the city to cut back the number of them, there'd be too many to try and set up camp in a city
It's ok. I'm just glad I can get it through gamepass and not pay for full price. It's good but a lot of the same stuff as the last with a few gameplay improvements. Nothing crazy except for Co-op which should have been in the first one . Thanks for the vid. ✌🏾
Anyone saves 1 outpost spot just so you can drop supplies wherever you are then cancel it after you cleared the area then fill up the car with rucksacks.
Im diggin it, Bringing bCk dope memories from the first one. It's not perfect but Its nice to step away from shit like fortnite for a sec, nice tips bro thanks..also I really like the text book addition
I lost one of my people yesterday ☹️. RIP Vasquez. She kept order in my base and was such a huge help.
She was a great doctor also.
Oh damn not that doctor! That's tragic man RIP
King Salazar I lost Alex, which in my game was the best friend that my main character kept bailing out of trouble :(.
I'm sorry for your loss :´{ keep pressing on tho. The community must survive!
I’ve lost three people, don’t remember their names
A juggernaut ripped my favorite person in half today.
Michael I lose my gardener to one right outside my home 😢
I feel that
Rip
Yeah that sucks when you lose your favorite characters. So, be careful and keep them strong.
a juggernaut broke 6 of my cars today :(

Great video. Honestly can't wait. This is why I own both systems. God of war last month and this game this month!
likewise plus my PC. Variety is the spice of life
Regnier575 is it not on playstation?
Hats Off No but it's on pc and xbox
Mumongu Gaming Fully agree. I want a pc for all the strategy games
My pc is over 3 years old and for the hell of it I downloaded this on my pc after purchasing it for xbox and to my surprise everything was set on high as default and a smooth 60fps with no drops.

For me growing food was one of first thing I did. It was critical.
if you go back to where your first car was, there's like 2 or 3 ruck sacks of food. great haul for the beginning of the game.
tawilk thanks for the tip. i just started a community and I'm definitely going to look for that. my peeps are hungry
Always find the food markets/stores at the start of the game.
tip if you have a constant supple of coffee you never need to switch survivors
It’s annoying to learn the game and it takes a little while but once you figure it out, it’s SO ADDICTING
Nice video, a well explained introduction to the game.
Can’t wait. Loved the first one
You shoulda said not to drive over the bloaters 🤣 those things will get you more than the zombies
"Ah shit, who tf farted in the car again?"
Dom from gears of war those were the good old days before they ruined it

I'm about to play this for the first time in about 5 minutes.
Lots of useful tips man. Especially with how to build up my base. Keep up the good work!
Awesome Video! Your video was a great help to me and my friend. We just got the game yesterday and was a bit overwhelmed, Thank you for clearing all the confusing stuff up! :D
I'm new to this game and I got to say great job on letting me know a bit more and I now have a better chance of surviving!
First time player here in 2023. Great vid to help get started thanks mate.
Absolutely incredibly helpful been playing a disgusting amount when I just recently bought it on black Friday
Glitches I like to exploit: I put rucksacks of resources in trunks of cars for safe keeping around perimeter of bases, they seem to never despawn. Park cars and trucks to block entryways, or make a serpentine to make it harder for zeds to get inside as fast, especially juggernauts and bloaters, the vehicles provide extra stand off distance so you can take them on without being overrun on all sides, it also helps keep your unarmed survivors from recklessly trying to run out and fistfight every zed and get hurt or killed. Just my .02 I am very new to game.
Keep in mind when in a multiplayer session peopel can steak things oit of your cars so if you use cars for stoage just dont use the storage crate.
how do you add food to the community i have about 20 pain killers but im still low on meds
Have an outpost for food, a person whose main skill is fishing, and a gardener to help He is food.
The problem I'm having is that no matter how much food and materials I get my resources meters are always in red. Do I have to feed every character by taking control of them?
Your base automatically consumes food placed into it. :v
Thank you bro that is a very useful video it helped me alot 👍
This video is old but i just started this game on game pass and this explains everything i was stuck on! Thanks!!
Very informative and calmly spoken guide. Thx for that!
Just started a new game and actually getting the hang of this finally
I don't have one thing clear. What is the meaning of having the energy and water to a structure? They work anyway even without these... So why in the status you can see that they have water or not, and same for energy? If they are not necessary... (I just noticed mood with light is increasing, but not the functionality of the building)
With either water or power, that makes using the facilities easier to perform certain things that normally require them. So, having them is good.
Arekkz, for all my MHW and SOD2 needs :D!
Very good, well explained and easy to understand video. Wish I watched this before I started, instead of figuring out myself.
Can you do best home base in each area like meagher valley for example, and best setup for it
Great video guys, some great tips. Really enjoying the hardcore nature of the game.
please keep it up. I'm waiting for the next video as m going to rely on you guys to keep me playing this game.
thanks for the video - I'm just starting out and it was very helpful
Thanks for this video. I was finding it hard to get to grips with
This game just feels like a big scavenger hunt. Not really my thing but there’s a massive amount of content I can’t deny that.
It's almost like scavenging is a large part of surviving...strange that...for you know a survival game
this is not a begginer's guide it's a tips video
This game was more complicated than I ever thought. It’s like a real time strategy game, only with a third person pov.
Is there any way to swap out what’s in your pockets for quick use? The only way I see to do it is to drop everything and then pick up what you want for quick use (pockets)first. Not ideal.
Top notch info and quality. Love your informative vids bro.

Definitely helpful. So far I'm really enjoying this game even though I'm not that good at it yet lol
I just started playing this game today, great video bro this was very helpful!😁
What system do you play on bro?
thanks for the vid .. getting back on this game I actually love it so much ! wish they add more content and updates soon
Nice, I’m excited for this! Thanks for the heads up!

Fant it's a non fictional game. What part of "game" do you not understand?
Vorschlaghammer Adding non fiction to your definition of “game” contradict each other lol
Vorschlaghammer you mean fictional. The way I was taught when I was younger was to replace fictional with “fake” so..
fictional =fake
Non-fictional= not fake
Fant I mean I guess, but there’s plenty of other more unrealistic parts to this game, zombies for instance.
Vorschlaghammer if it’s non-fiction that means it’s a true story. :/
Good video man, I’ve been trying to figure out how to work my home base thing out. I now have around 7 or 8 survivors and my base isn’t cutting it as far as space
TheJunkShot time to move on up, to the east side, and finally get a piece of the pie
James Dobson moved to the north side police station, working pretty awesome 👍
When you equip a survivor with a gun, do they use the ammo when they defend the base or do they get unlimited ammo?
Cal Baxter I’m late but unlimited
Nice Vid keep up that great work :)
I recently got the game and this helped me alot
What do you need to know?
Morale?
Skills?
Personality?
Facilities for the base?

If I had watch this video before playing, Caleb would still be alive today.
i’m not necessarily a beginner i’ve played a bunch but i took a break and needed a refresher lol
Does time pass in your own game if you join a friend? And do they use resources?
I’m new to state of decay 2 what is that stuff you have to have enough of to build more things in your base ?
Influence and materials are the keys to building up your base. Once you make it to the 1500 influence base, the real fun begins.
Brilliant dude thanks
I’ve lost one of my characters who was a Hero so the morale plummeted at the base😩.Will it get back to normal in time or should I start a fresh game? The base is fully stocked with goodies too lol.
Best way is to make everyone a hero. The more heroes, the stronger everyone is even if one dies. But keep all alive. Once the character dies, you never see them again at all.
Thanks Arekkz great tips, i was just going to start this game , will be back to MHW for events and new stuff tho ^^
I honestly have to thank you. They did such a terrible job with the tutorial and this games mechanics that I don't know if Ill go back and play it but this tut helped me out. The game is just a horrific mess of awkward controls and bad game design. It feels nothing like the first one. Who uses the LB to sprint? Oh and that jumping animation... Was the gravitational pull of the earth increased cause characters can only jump 2 inches off the ground. Glad it's free cause I would be angry if I had paid for it.
How is it free
How do you get more people for a base you dont have enough people for without losing a anybody???
Hey is there a way to auto unload cars like in the first one... or is it just manually unloading one at time in this one
infinite cognizance its very easy tho just spam the button xD
infinite cognizance so not quite the auto unload from sodc1 but still better than grabbing one running in to your storage and running back to the car again... thanks... this helps alot
When looting do they respawn for is the house or building done
After the house or building is searched, that's it. But, if you need resources, they can be searched again once you ask for supplies around the land.
Hey look, a popular video game youtuber that ISNT annoying as fuck! Good job
Can u craft toolkits from workshop?
Great guide thanks
This game is a little confusing. I bought it because I saw it and it looked fun. Never played the first one either. However, a lot of stuff goes unexplained in the actual game and I’m left to figure it all out on my own which isn’t a problem, but a little in game tutorial would help out a lot. This video made life a little bit easier.
This video is helpful but i am still confused sort of. When i switch to different characters and go scavenge and do a mission or whatever and I come back and the survivors i was using are still super depressed and injured and i cant do anything to get their health to max again. I feel like a total noob but im lost af lol
If your character or characters are depressed, then it means you need certain things in your base or have to build a certain facility to increase the mood. As for them being injured, keep a medical facility in all your bases. Make sure someone has a skill in the medical field.
Now, if you have some that just has a bad attitude all the way around and they still start shit after you give them what they need, kick them out.
i just stated THis game i know is an older game ..But i really like it ..wish id sen it before .. By the way with this info .. it was hart to start Off ..Ty awesome video ..and a way to explain it .. Kuddos to the comment's alot of good resorse there ..
So I am having a good time with the game but for the life of me I cannot seem to keep the people at my base happy. I have an issue with bag space and it seems like I am constantly having to go back to base just to clear my bags. Its starting to feel more like a chore and I am hoping its just my play style. If you could fast travel to your base this game would be perfect. As it stands right now its a little more hardcore than I anticipated. I am going to start over and give it one more go.
I pick up backpacking for the +1 slot, and am now disciplined with what I take. You can't take everything! Only specific loot runs for what you need. I think it's quite balanced. The zombie fighting seems either too easy, unless you're fighting 15+ plague zombies and a freak shows up. But that adds to the suspense when you're almost dead in combat :D
+Seneca yamma taking stuff out the supply locker doesn't effect anything like it effected the last state of decay it took your influence doesn't do it on number 2 and it doesn't effect you or your base.
I know right, I kind of liked the idea of it costing influence. I feel the game is a little easy so far. Played maybe 15 hours, no deaths or troubles yet :)
I'm a pretty good player though, very safe & combat experienced hehe :D
+Seneca yamma I have pre ordered the standard so I can play it tomorrow at midnight and if you are on Xbox hit me up with some co op I was good at the first one so I'll probably be just as good
Super helpful thx!
Thanks for this
You going be uploading more state of decay ?
You helped me a lot
I really love these survival games but I really love a zombie survival game in a CITY. Days gone, This, and DayZ all have wide open areas. Just imagine an I am Legend kind of scenario going inside malls, building etc. Yeah I know Dead rising but... I want something more realistic. Like a last of Us open world but just after a few weeks of outbreak.
Lot of zombies, lot of loot left in groceries, shops etc, and in a freakin' city.
101Bancho if you think about it a city is the last place you want to be in the zombie apocalypse. too high of a concentration of people. everything would be looted already and the sheer number of undead assholes would pretty much ensure your death by day 3
James Dobson That is why it would be the best setting for a game. Remember what I wrote, only a few days or weeks of outbreak. Not yet able to get out of the city yet.That would be intense!
Hmm I think it would be good for a zombie shooter. More of a FPS action style, I don't know if it would work as well in a SOD survival sim type game. I don't really like left 4 dead or dead rising type games or zombie shooters in general. I do love SOD though. Its just the kind of game I'm into. I think a couple weeks after the outbreak maybe even months after there would still be millions of zombies in big crowded cities. remember they don't need anything to survive so unless the military bombed out the city to cut back the number of them, there'd be too many to try and set up camp in a city
Resident Evil 2 was in Racoon City......just sayin! roflmao
James Yeager Jr yeah, and I really love RE: Outbreak but it's not really open world Like SOD.
Will time pass even when you're not playing the game like the last State of Decay?
UltimaOmega777 not this time
Nice.
Yea I hated that from the first
No this time it's extra hard lol
nope they took that out thank god
I just need to known how to crouch I cant crouch in the game I hold b and my character just does nothing.
But what is the point of this game storywise or are there no story?
Great video
Well presented video 🙂🇬🇧
It's ok. I'm just glad I can get it through gamepass and not pay for full price. It's good but a lot of the same stuff as the last with a few gameplay improvements. Nothing crazy except for Co-op which should have been in the first one . Thanks for the vid. ✌🏾
Anyone saves 1 outpost spot just so you can drop supplies wherever you are then cancel it after you cleared the area then fill up the car with rucksacks.
Good video and kept to the basics. Well done. Too many others are narcissistic rant-downs filled with irrelevant goo. :)
Im diggin it, Bringing bCk dope memories from the first one. It's not perfect but Its nice to step away from shit like fortnite for a sec, nice tips bro thanks..also I really like the text book addition
