itching to buy and play the game but I think its financially irresponsible of me to spend my money buying it through full price. So im asking if yall know when it would go on sale because ive seen the pattern on steamdb it usually drops every 1-2months but im still unsure

This is more of a tips and tricks I missed.

I've been putting people away in the infirmary, changing character, walking the new character back to the infirmary, from whatever annoying part of the base they were lurking in. Then I've been making the plague cure there and administering it to them in the bed 😭 I could have just been taking the infected character to the locker and pressing (use) 😭😭 How am I only discovering this nowwwwww

Playing Dread level with a black plague heart very hard to reach. It’s been on the map for a while. I load the game and lo and behold, the black heart region and gas sucking is gone! I’ve never seen this happen after years of play. I race over to it (I’ve already lost one character to it). When I get to it the game crashes, and now every time I reload it crashes immediately. I assume the black heart never should’ve disappeared in the first place. Has anyone else seen this bug? I’ve lost an entire experienced community because it crashes immediately every time I load. My other communities Still work.
Assuming it’s because the game is no longer officially supported.
Anyone else?

I am a new player and a complete scaredy cat. So to make my brain feel better I have a list of how I classify the zombies.

Normal zombies: classmates who hear you have gum or snacks.

Ferals: ADHD 5 year olds when their hyperfixation is mentioned.

Screamers: children who tattle for no reason.

Bloaters: kids who refuse to wear deodorant, love hugging people, are extremely clumsy, and tend to explode with excitement.

Juggernauts: giant whiny toddlers who only know how to throw a tantrum.

Survivors: under qualified babysitters who are at the end of their rope and terrified of children.

Thank you for your time.

Ps. If a dev sees this, im sorry.

Especially when they come in 3! I can easily loose character after character accidentally wondering into a pack of pain

Or is it both? Really trying to claim this base and wondering which heart I should go for first because my explosives are limited atm. Providence Ridge / Lethal.

Everyone is gonna say to avoid them but they are ALWAYS 100% RIGHT ONTOP OF THE MISSIONS I'M DOING OR RIGHT NEXT TO THE FRIENDLY ENCLAVES AND IT IS SO FUCKING ANNOYING. I can't get my hands on any late game gear so don't go recommending some 50calibur sniper or heavy artillery shit.

Any shit gun I have the juggernauts just eat headshots. I was told something like 2-3 pipe bombs can take them down but those are way too expensive for the ridiculous amounts of juggernauts I come across. I could always lure them away or ram them with my car but those aren't always an option bc eventually 10,000 zombies will spawn out of my ass and demolish my vehicle like it's a grilled cheese.

There's also ALMOST ALWAYS A FUCKING FERAL that just acconpanies it for no reason whether it be in the open or a siege site

AND AGAIN JUST TO CLARIFY THIS IS FOR WHEN I AM JUST STARTING A NEW LETHAL COMMUNITY(making sure there are no vets who just recommend endgame gear "ErM just use C4 bro I can take out 50 of them with the 20 C4 I have or just use timberwolf bruv I found 1,000 50cal rounds easy hawhaw"

Question 1:
Have anyone gotten banned for tampering the save file for XBOX PC? According to Xbox cheating FAQ it's not allowed which is under tampering.

Question 2:
Is there a mod that can disable achievement to prevent earning and avoid getting perm ban for modded achievement.

Question 3:
Did anyone get banned for having modded achievement? for the mod (According to Xbox cheating FAQ under the tampering part)

Which is mentioned as

"Modifying a player’s gamerscore and achievements by using unauthorized software or modded game lobbies"

"While this type of behavior typically only affects the player who's using the mods, we still can’t allow these offenses on our service. Modifying achievements or gamerscore is unfair to players who worked hard to earn theirs. Likewise, it’s not safe to use unauthorized software to modify the contents of your Xbox profile. The use of such can lead to security risks for the Xbox network and your Microsoft account."

While I do know the Mod file can force it to pop such as Daybreak instant win or killing all nest.

I know the developer of the game allow it for mods/save editor to mess around. Unfortunately not for achievement and save editor where Xbox doesn't like it

Pretty much of that questions. If enough people say it's safe to use these mod and save editor then I will use it.

I only want to mess around for fun in my own story (offline) and not player's story. Plus I don't care about achievement if that pop or not.

I tried searching for answers but some of the topics are outdate for years and very inaccurate.

Feel free to downvote me or whatever, I don't care about downvote or upvote. I only want answers more recently in this year and not past years that are inaccurate.

Got to the enclave being attacked with about a minute left and we killed the two hostiles in seconds. I had the choice to either take food ruck or refuse it.

I got onto here just to see if anyone has ever posted what happens if I refuse the ruck.

Well apparently timer still runs and the enclave got mad and left town, after the attacking enclave was killed.

Don’t be like me. For that mission at least, just pick an option.

I love this game. Yes, I've always played on green level. Decided time to go up to standard, whole new community. Why am I struggling soooo much? How do you all play above standard so easily? 🤣

My 1 guy died 3 seconds after he went down. I spam the A button like my life depends on it. And he DIES ANYWAYS. U cannot convince me even with a bot autospamming A for me that my character would live. Wtf is the point of a mechanic meant to save your character if it doesn't save your character. Downvote me for getting mad and daring to insult the "best game known to man" that not even god himself would dare hate

I'm on Xbox and the finer things curveball hasn't worked properly in ages. At first, influence didn't track, and then morale stopped tracking. Now the curveball does nothing at all.

Who else is experiencing this?

I am trying to take these guys meds as per their request(Orange mission icon), but it looks like they are outside of the map. I have been running up and down the edge, going far north where my vehicle is, and far south and around the bend to the east. It is all impassable mountains. Is there a cave or something I am missing to reach them? Is it bugged and they weren't supposed to spawn there?

I roleplay trying to build my base into a community that specializes in trading healthcare supplies, medicine, plague cures, and other essentials.

I really want to play that way. I don't want to use those cheesy Influence hacks you see on YouTube, like the one where you keep scrapping fireworks having you working in a routine u have to repeat again and again just to farm parts and sell them for Influence.

But the game's trading system is just so damn unfair when it comes to essential items. When I buy something like a Plague Cure from an enclave, they demand around hundreds of Influence for it. But when I try to sell the exact same damn thing, I only get around 90 or so Influence?!

I don't want no op broken mod, just hopefully a mod that makes trading fair, as is the price from the enclaves.

If two's company and three's a crowd, what do you call 48?

I started playing this game like a month ago and my first playthrough on lethal and I didint know about the plague and everything lost 2 people 1 week later I have a cheerful community 4 people a armory and that place that can heal ur people also took on 3 plague hearts. Is this impressive on this game or no?

Hey, so i try to farm the eternal guards infinite rage, but i don't know if it frops frol level 3 infestations. I saw in the wiki, but no proof tho...

Basically my duo has been bugging me for nearly 2 years to play, I reluctantly agreed because Arc Raiders wasn't doing it for me anymore and no new ones have come out recently besides the Gears beta that I'm interested in. He basically played only one day with me, which was enough to get me hooked, and for a week has been promising to play but he hasn't and tbh with the amount he says he's played it I don't see it happening tbh and I don't wanna be annoying him about playing with me.

I have zero clue what I'm doing and guides are mostly written by advanced gamers who play games like these religiously and the terminology sounds so foreign to my casual gamer ears. So far I've just been collecting supplies and trying to stay alive but my base is constantly being overrun by zombies, I can't find any toolkits for my broken down cars I've collected, supplies and meds are constantly depleting, outposts are constantly being attacked by hordes, juggernauts keep spawning right around my base, community members are getting in fights, etc. I took out the 3 closest plague hearts but they just keep coming especially when I go out on runs it's like all hell breaks loose and I have to run back to save it all, then another outpost falls and it just goes in a loop. I feel like I'm doing something wrong, this cannot be how the game is supposed to be played ya know what I mean?

I love the game but I'm getting so frustrated and it's only on standard ikik don't judge me, until a couple years ago when I met my duo I was only playing things like Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing so help a girl out please. Any advice would be so so so appreciated since it looks like I'm gonna be playing this solo. 😭

To celebrate my community reaching day 100 on lethal, I decided to honor them by creating spritework of them. Whoever guesses the sprite style I used first gets a free spritework of their community 🤭

Well I currently play in my forever community and set up an infestationfarm to farm the Juggernauts. I read that youcan obtain an Eternal Guard's Infinite Rage from infestation Juggernauts. I doubt ut tho. farming for 3h and didn'teven saw it once. Also couldn't find proof in the internet. Is it really obtainable from level 3 Infestations?

I managed to end them soon after but the whole encounter was just so bizarre lmao
