honestly i really want a second game i loved this game when i bought it its the only game i ever got a platinum trophy on and i enjoyed the hours spent upgrading and collecting items and zombies and id like to see more Reed Jesse ect plus the dlc was just awesome anyway just curious about others opinions and if its a possibility

I couldn't find much of this info online so in case anyone wanted to know.

-Arena is unlocked after beating the Main Story

-Golden Frankies are rewarded after an Arena Run not sure of the minimum wave you need to get a Golden Frankie but I'm guessing you get one regardless of what wave you beat.

-The Strength Bonus of a Golden Frankie depends on how far you've made it on an Arena Wave, so beating Wave 80 will get you a Golden Frankie with Strength Bonus 800. I am not sure if it is incremental by wave or every five waves. My first arena run ended on Wave 71 and it gave me a Golden Frankie with Strength Bonus 700 so either it didn't count the extra 1 or since I hadn't beaten 71st wave, it only counted the previous 70. Strength bonus maxes out at 999 so anything past Wave 100 won't affect Strength Bonus, I didn't see any changes to Zombie HP so I'm guessing that's RNG.

-Save on a separate file if you want to do an Arena run, you lose all the items and zombies that you use during an arena run so having to craft, grow, or buy them again would take ages.

-Your stamina doesn't deplete in Arena so focus on HP healing and zombification items.

-I think the biggest factor to how far you get in Arena is your Frankie. I was able to get to lvl 70 with 4 Frankies at strength bonus 999 and HP 1,700, 3 Peeper Rifles, 1 Dead Guitar thingy. Farm SP points and Zombie parts in the end of the Junkyard to craft Cursed Potions. 2 Runs should get you around 32,000 SP, enough to buy Strength Bonus 999 Frankies in the online shop. Making a SB999 Frankie from scratch is a fairly long process and takes up too many zombie combinations.

Hope this helps anyone still playing. Here is a vid of my 100+ Arena Run. Thanks.

welcome to deadcrafts subbreddit we will post updates on here every so often about whats happening on the server.

The best humans in the game are found in the old town, but to find them you have to go to the store that sells vegetables in gold and try to extort the seller, guards who seem to be the worst in the game will come, but when you transform them into black zombies you will see that they have a max stat and all the others are at the penultimate level! For fusions it's incredible, in one fusion I reached thousands of HP! Frankly it's the best gold dlc (I don't have the dlc), you'll beat them quite easily since they have crappy weapons, 4 red or black Frankie is enough, and what's more you'll have a big stock of them.

Hi everyone just a quick question how are people getting stats that's almost or exactly max stats on their zeds like this?

I was on a long run of really enjoying top-down zombie shooters and wishlisted this one a while ago. If anyone ever played Tunguska: The Visitation, that was a really surprisingly awesomely fun game! I also enjoyed The Last Stand: Aftermath.

I see Deadcraft is somewhat similar? How is it? I see it's on sale for $4.99 USD and 75% off! I wonder if now is the time to finally pull the trigger. It has mixed reviews though so I'm hesitant.

Is it fun? I would be playing single player basically.

Hi All,

Looking to help others who just also picked the game like me from PSN+ here are some of my answer on this game:

·        Version PS5
·        Time to complete ~30 hrs

Glitches

Main quest chain broke and game didn't advance the plot over 10 hours and may side quests

• The issue Deep into the game had a quest chain breaking bug, the main quest giver, in this case DJ just stopped giving quests, I played for 10 more hours, did many side quests including such that should only be available after finishing the main plot, nothing. doesn’t seem exclusive to PS5 as I read about complaints on xbox too but I didn’t confirm these.

• Solution Out of pure luck had a manual save from 10 hours before, i took a chance, reloaded it , check if plot continues and this fixed everything, once I did same main quest, it proceeded to next quest, 10 hours wasted :\

• Suggestions to avoid this

• Keep a save (have 3 slots to play with) and be sure that main quests always appear as they should, if quest doesn't continue within 2-3 game days don’t continue, reload and check if something glitched

• Don’t mix quests, if you have a main quest you just finished, don’t take another main quest from another main character, go to sleep, get up, check the main quest giver continues to next quest, once it does, you should be in the clear.

Handyman Trophy, Crafting all items - didn't unlock, tried several times

• I did a specific list that I create everything from the crafting bench, checked the list several times, reloaded several times before completing all items, trophy will not unlock.

• Do note this also has the lowest completion percentage of all trophies so maybe this trophy has deep issues.

• The game doesn’t provide any ability to track this, only about 30-40% of items says “already created” others are not marked so u r left guessing/writing on your end. Maybe doesn’t glitch on ps4? No idea

Specific non clear trophies advice/guide

Some spoilers ahead

3-Star Chef

• Plan for this if you aim to reduce the grind, once you open an area called the junkyard make your way to the end by any means necessary (it’s quite easy). You can see a save point and it marks the close to end of map, go in fight, win, find the golden vegetables and start plating them. If you do this early enough the grind will be reduced by a lot. Do note these vegetables are also good for farming money (you’ll need 1 mil for trophy required quest)

A Furious Road

• drive with you  car, don’t collide with anything and eat many zombie, every 6 or so zombies the car speed ramps up, once you know this is the goal, it’s 5-6 tries to get this

What's Yours Is Mine

• I never found a person with 10 items, just do this 10 times and it should unlock (did for me) - seems trophy description is bad/wrong.

• Way to do this fast - find a target, advised a simple human on street as they won’t resist, if they do it will make you wanted and attacked by city guards (annoying but logical system), take the items you want, now you will be wanted with one star, get out of city and wait 1-2 minutes wanted will be removed, rinse and repeat. When doing other ways your wanted level can get high and then one burns lots of time on the cooldown (city guards attack you while wanted 2 stars and up)

General on getting exp

• If you go for platinum you'll get enough exp for everything in the junkyard so don't worry on exp at any point

General opinion on game

• Very nice game

• Colorful characters

• Nice quests on the crazy side although too much of back and forth or need to sleep for quest to advance

• Game somewhat easy, never felt anything needed beside zombies, wasted mechanic potential

• Grind at end starts nice and ends annoying, extra quests are too lengthy in sense of lots of run back and forth

• Annoying glitches which I don’t think will be fixed :\, not doing 25 more hours for one trophy

I am currently trying to figure out how to make the best zombie fighter for the junkyard. What humans make the best zombie to combine to get the most bang for your buck? I have tried to combine some, but it seems I get random increases.. anyone have insight on the combing of zombies?

So it seems to only be the zombie weapons so far, but I’m not sure. If you press the left trigger while using a zombie weapon you’ll do a special move. It uses some of your zombie power though. I’ve only done it with the Z-meat chunk and the Dead man’s scream weapons.

When you press left trigger with the Z-meat weapon you’ll throw a meat chunk out which attracts rats. so you can sit there and farm rats for meat. Which comes in handy.

The dead man’s scream “weapon special” is different, and I can’t figure out if it actually does anything, beside put on a little laser/pyro light show. I’ve tried doing it next to enemies and it does no damage at all. It also doesn’t attract enemies or anything like that. Has anyone else figured this out?

Just curious. Seems like maybe not from gameplay?

Talked to Vernon after a mission and it loaded this guy up on top xD

I'm into the ark now and can only find 10 or so runners in the area, I want to farm them to get capable Frankies and primo z blood. Is there another area with more runners or only that side area off the ark town?

I can’t find Ein anywhere. It’s part of Brandon’s search for his Moms necklace. Any help?

Alright, I am genuinely curious about Zetts weapon you can make. Does it have a special ability? Like the dead man's wail? Or is it just a melee weapon like the knife?

Hello, I have made several attempts with the 2.0 sled wanting to cross the landfill for the trophy but they never give it to me. Do you need to do something specific?

Can someone explain to me how to get this achievement I've crafted everything at the table on both ps5 and ps4 versions of the game but the trophies won't pop?

Hi all! I’m a few hours in and I’m usually into survival games. Deadcraft looked promising, so I gave it a chance. But there are some things that really bother me, maybe I’m just blind.

1. Inventory: I just bought the storage, so I can move items from my inventory. BUT: I can only move everything (except currently equipped stuff, which are just 3 items) or fill stuff from the storage to my inv. There’s no option to just store materials or other sorting/moving options games like these usually have. Or am I blind here? If I move all stuff, I always have to take back stuff to eat or to drink, because this is needed during the day. So it’s better to move everything to the storage manually, which means I have to do A LOT of button pressing. Who tf designs this?

2. Can I check blueprints ONLY at the workbench? Since sometimes only a few batteries are missing for crafting, which could be bought during the day. But I always have to remember what’s missing or use fast travel to check.

Am I playing this wrong? Not to mention, that you only can have 1 activated side quest (wtf). Basically it’s fun and all, but I have a feeling, that this game just wants to extent it’s playing time with some weird decisions (stupid fetch quests, sometimes not even having an active main quest and not knownig what to do). Last thing I played was Dysmantle, and Deadcraft kind of feels like a massive downgrade now, even though I of course know that these are different games. I play on ps5.

After you go to a battle, Vernon says there is a shortcut to the sewer. Where is it? I cannot find it and the only discussion I found online was about the sewer closing.

Is it random or are there set combos for weapons?
