State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition Reviews

probably the best zombie "survival" game, the melee combat is fun the shooting is satisfying and the driving is perfect for running over zombies :) i cant wait for the 3rd game to somehow BE EVEN BETTER! a EASY 10/10

If you want looting shooting zombie sandbox, then yes. Just understand it is fairly shallow in most aspects, and in many ways is just a modest upgrade from SoD1. You have to really like this game for repeated play throughs, or take long breaks between. I honestly don't expect the reported SoD3 to be any better, or different, as this developer hasn't shown the studio skills or capability to make a bigger better game.

at only 20 gigabytes this game runs really well on weaker PCs on low graphics and is really well put together. at first i thought it would be a huge game and that i couldn't run it because i have a low end PC but it worked well. 10/10 would recommend

[b]State of Decay 2 is hands down the best open-world zombie survival game I’ve ever played![/b] The more time you spend in its world, the more surprises you uncover. Every decision feels meaningful, and unlike many other games, the character dialogues and emotions are incredibly well-crafted, making the experience feel truly immersive. The balance between survival, community management, and action is perfect. I'm beyond satisfied with my purchase—this game keeps getting better the more you play!

DO NOT start this game at a higher difficulty level. You need to learn how it works at easier difficulties first. With a few exceptions, every game I've ever played I started on the hardest level and eventually got good at it. I tried that with this game and couldn't make any progress. Constant death. After 200+ hours I'm still one away from the hardest level. It's an extremely immersive and difficult game, but a lot of fun and very rewarding as you get better. The creators also supported, improved, and released new updates and content for an astonishing number of years. How many studios do that these days!?!

Cant even play it without some arbitrary online microsoft account. Cool. Was actually excited to try it too. Nevermind.

Its about building a community and killing thousands upon thousands of zombies. Its is fun, that's it. P.S. Achievements in this game were obviously made by someone who never played it.

I would not recommend if you search for a multiplayer gameplay. The actual gameplay is great. Won't lie about it. But once you want to get into multiplayer with your friend... Awful... So imagine you want to play with your friend and you join their world. You're basically a slave. You gain 33% of their loot and you are not even getting a good weapon. You don't share their community or loot. You can't upgrade their stations. You're just here to help and nothing else. If you actually want some loot or reward for the help you have provided, you have to go in your world and claim the reward. Wich loses the whole point of the muliplayer cooperation gameplay. Please devs. Don't mess up with State Of Decay 3. The gameplay is geat. DON'T MESS UP!

Microsoft account login issue is killing all it's games i had the same issue with forza and now here getting my account locked for no reason and every time i try to log in a message of "too many requests" shows. Microsoft system sucks

In a vacuum, I would say [b]State of Decay 2[/b] is a mediocre survival game. Considering the subpar competition, however, it ends up being one of the best "The Walking Dead simulators" out there. It's repetitive. It's formulaic. It's shallow. Missions are all the same. Characters have zero personality. But god is it addicting to upgrade stuff and gather resources over and over again. Combat is not great but it gets the job done, especially after getting some movement upgrades depending on the survivor. Exploration is okay. After a couple of big settlements you've seen everything there is to see, with the exception of some special weapons. I like the upgrade system, both in the base and in the characters. It doesn't get in the way of the gameplay loop. It's just a little pause in between supply runs. The Plague Hearts system doesn't offer much except sheer frustration. It's too limiting and the rewards are not enough for the trouble sometimes. One more thing: the online mode is a disaster. It's not at all what should've been. But there's no other game like it. Project Zomboid is getting there but it might be too hardcore for some people. State of Decay 2 is a fun, janky, casual zombie survival game with an addicting gameplay loop. It's okay. Hopefully, the upcoming third installment improves on everything. They have a good baseline here. [h2]5,5/10[/h2]
