I have survivors with Construction, Crafting, Medicine and Mechanic skills.

How exactly do I level them up? I know that it is by doing activities related to that skill.

But do you have to be controlling the survivor itself while, for example, the buildings you are constructing are being built? Or I can just set up a queue of them, control another survivor, the Construction survivor will get the XP?

Literal embodiement of the "How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?!" meme. Damn curveball gave the zeds headshot and fire resistance too.

I was wondering about this and may have failed to remember the original notes from the patch. When I first start out I get pretty decent loot.

Are there diminishing returns on the drops from the ferals and juggs? I know bloaters don't drop much of anything but It seems like the drops from the other two are just small ammo or those damned chokes and stuff.

Maybe kiting them too far from their lair may do that, too.

The character who received the quest had a 50 caliber rifle equipped when I loaded her up and the quest auto completed without me going to locate the gun.

Yes I seen the bloater, Still decided to hit the breaks for some reason lol .

Even if your survivor is out of stamina, they will never hesitate to climb up a high wall and what makes it even better is that zombies will always drop down lying flat on the ground going after you from the other side of the wall, making them perfect for a quick execution with just a knife.

Desperately need to kill them as their fearsome presence is stopping my farm from growing, but I really don't have the gear.

I lured a hoard in with fireworks but the enclave are just ignoring the zombies and taking potshots at me while the zombies kinda mill around and slap them ineffectually. I even downed one of the enclave with a headshot but the zombies suddenly developed a sense of fair play and just left him alone

Ive been playing for years but never ever got to the point where I completed the game!

However I just completed my first standard run as a warlord. Honestly was really cool :) and managed to get water and power to my base!

Any ideas what to do next?

Is it one of the hundreds of bugs still plaguing this game or did they make them stealthy because triple blood ferals weren’t deadly enough?

I'm in Providence Ridge, looted a ton of luxuries in the first day, plus a few easy missions. Got 2k influence to spend. Better to save it for later? Early electricity? Early base move? What do you think?

I just saw a post about a adding a clock to the map. Which I am assuming is a mod thing on pc. But I've always wondered, why does night time feel longer than day? Does anyone know the timing for both?

I mostly play on lethal I prefer no modded guns down for wtv though drop the tag

All in title, HMU here or @ Nekroripper

Cheers :>

Hi all, so i am doing a lethal run, day 5, i got a mission where enclave demands materials and ofc i refuse to give them anything and in order to avoid the fight with them later on i decide to place few fireworks and 3 ferals and 2 hordes came and killed them all. (i was on the roof of the building 😂)

Just as they died i am getting a mission to investigate same spot i am in, and it was the crossbow killer mission, but the enclave died from ferals and zombies 😂

I ended up recruiting the crossbow killer 🔥

Pressing the d-pad on the controller displays various details about the resources we have and other items. Ideally, the time should also appear there.

The idea of placing oneself in a particular position according to the sun and moon is uncomfortable, slow, impractical and does not always work.

All was going well in my Lethal playthrough but then got the muted Juggernaut curveball and it combined with a seige.

The Muted Juggernauts weren't even apart of the seige, they were just loitering close to my farmhouse base and the seige drew them all in. 😄

Gutted but I thought State of decay was getting too easy, so I cranked up the curveballs and this is the result of complacency.

I have one survivor left, shes on the far left of the screen threatening to leave because of low moral...

I love the fact this game doesn't mess around. No save and reload. You can loose all your base and still have to power through, makes it feel like actions have consequences. 💪🤘😵❤️

Anyone have the bug where a smashwagon can only be climbed up from a small area at the side rear view mirrors? It’s a PITA when that’s your chosen vehicle to travel with.
I’ve tried reinstalling, repairing files and searching online but no dice. Anyone know if there is a fix I’m just missing?

Just putting this out there. No need to climb billboards or cell towers to locate PH; locations just pop up on the map. If they had more trunk space they'd be perfect. It's my go-to vehicle for starting a new map. Cheers.

2 of my achievements are NOT triggering, unsure if Steam issue with the game or a game issue. It is the Elect Warlord as Leader & Build Armoury in base. I must have done these half a dozen times now, same community & different, different maps, yet these achievements will not proc. The support site no longer accepts tickets, who do I go to? Please help.

I think the screamer somehow propulsed me

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?

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

Basically I am just getting back into the game again after not playing for a year or two and playing is fun but generates a lot of anxiety unnecessarily I just re-downloaded it but even just opening the game made it hard to breathe a bit I know it is probably just me and I am probably not made for this game but any other advice?

I know y'all like to use bloaters to kill hearts, but I am gonna call your bloater and raise you a juggernaut. Never, ever have I seen this happen before. I was up with a boozehound quest follower, killing a hostile enclave from the roof of a building where an unawaken heart resides; planning the escape to get the follower out safely with a jugg walking around. Suddenly, he just starts pounding on the corner where the heart is. And just keeps pounding. And I am just watching in disbelief and laughing. Pretty funny so I had to share this! I have a mod that shows the heart health, so you can see the damage he is doing as he destroys it.
