State of Decay 2 - PC
Unlimited Influence:
--------------------
This glitch will help you make your influence never end. First, you need to have
an upgraded Command Center 2 on your home base. Then, you need to find a trader
and buy some 9mm or 22mm rounds. Sell them one piece at a time, and then buy them
back again one piece at a time.
Do this kind of trading while using Broadcast, which increases your influence by
10%. So for each traded round, you will earn more influence, which will result
in a solid profit. You can exploit this every time and never have to worry about
your influence ever again.
Note: This glitch was performed on an unpatched version of the game.
It is likely to eventually get patched.
New Game Plus Mode:
-------------------
State of Decay 2 does have a new game plus mode in the form of future communities.
Once all the Plague Hearts have been taken care of in State of Decay 2, the leader
of your community will have a legacy they want to leave for future generations. To
do this, you’ll need to complete a number of objectives and goals, and once this
is done, you’ll “complete” the game and unlock a perk for future playthroughs,
essentially providing a new game plus mode. What the perk is depends on who you’ve
elected to be your leader in State of Decay 2.
What’s more, all of your surviving characters are saved and can be introduced when
starting over in State of Decay 2’s new game plus, though if you just want to start
from scratch, you can do exactly that, too.
With a number of different starting duos to choose from and a number of different
locations you can start at too, there’s plenty of reason to keep on scavenging and
slaying in State of Decay 2 after you’ve helped your first leader realize their legacy.
How Do I Get Influence?:
------------------------
You are given a small amount of influence points while playing the game. It can
be rewarded randomly when killing zombies or by completing certain actions or
missions that NPC characters offer to you.
Another way to get Influence points is to trade items with other communities.
Certain items like soap have no use in the game’s crafting system and only exist
to be sold to other communities for large amounts of influence points.
How To Deal with Infection:
---------------------------
The worst part of the zombie apocalypse is getting infected. Yes, you can become
a zombie — thankfully, only one type of zombie will increase your infection meter.
The red-eyed zombies are faster, stronger, and deadlier than standard zombies - and
the red-eyed zombies also carry the blood plague.
When they attack you, your infection meter will increase. Fill the meter up, and a
timer will appear — if you don’t get a cure before the timer runs out, you’ll become
a zombie. That’s an instant game over.
NOTE: If you don’t have any Plague Samples, place a survivor in the Infirmary for
treatment. You won’t be able to play as them, and they’ll use multiple medical
supplies a day, but it will completely stop the rise of the infection.
To successfully fight the infection, you’ll need to construct the Infirmary at
your HQ. There are two ways that you can b fight the infection.
-=Blood Plague Therapy=-
Therapy will lower your infection meter to zero when used.
This requires 3 Plague Samples.
-=Blood Plague Cure=-
The Cure will save you if you’ve been infected with the Blood Plague. Only use
this if you’ve been infected and the timer to zombification has appear.
This requires Infirmary 2, and 5 Plague Samples.
To get Blood Plague Samples, you’ll need to hunt red-eyed zombies found scattered
throughout the map — the red-eyed zombies will especially appear at night. I
recommend shooting them dead from a safe vantage point. It’s far, far better to
simply cure the Blood Plague. Just wait until the timer begins — no need to cure
it too quickly, when you’re bound to just get infected again.
Unlimited Stamina Glitch:
-------------------------
You will have to pay attention to the blue gauge located on the bottom-left corner
of your screen. That’s the stamina gauge, and the red one is your health gauge. When
you run or do any other physical action, the blue gauge will quickly go down.
As a result, you will have to wait a bit for it to recover. But if you don’t want to
wait and would rather just use this infinite stamina glitch, then simply press LB and
tap it. You will notice that your character will keep moving without using your
stamina at all.
Beginner tips:
--------------
The following are ten tips to help when starting the game:
1. Choose Your Home Base Wisely: Your Home Base is your central hub. It is where you
do all your construction, and where survivors from your community gather. While the
first Home Base is normally chosen for you, in the form of a story objective, you are
free to choose one after that. You can only have one Home Base at a time, and when
you choose a second, your previous is destroyed. Each Home Base offers different
slots for construction -- so make sure the spots offer what you need.
Each map features a "master" base, which is the best of all the bases.
You can easily spot these, as they cost 3,500 Influence Points each.
2. Resources: Resources are important to your success. There are consumables and
items that you can find and use yourself, but there are also community resources.
These resources are special, as they always come in the shape of a large sack that
you carry on your back. You can only carry a single sack at a time, but you can
also load up your trunk. When you return these sacks to your Home Base, the
resources go towards your community. Having enough food, medical supplies, and
crafting materials ensures your community is safe and maintains a high level
of morale.
3. Vehicles Are Valuable: Vehicles are a very valuable resource. They allow you
to safely travel long distances, avoid dangerous zombie types, and you can fill
up your trunk with lots of supplies during each run. Do not waste your repair kits
and fuel early in the game, especially on vehicles that do not offer much utility.
Find the vehicles that have the most capacity and use those for the start of your
journey, ensuring you always return to Home Base with more resources than your
last expedition cost.
4. Beware Of Traveling To New Maps: While State Of Decay 2 features three playable
maps at launch, they are not really connected. The map you start on is the only map
you can explore for that community. If you leave the map through one of the roads
that leads to another area, it will completely wipe your progress in your current
map, and you will start again in a new area.
5. Create A Custom Community: When you first start the game, you are given the
choice of a few starting communities. Any of these can work depending on your
playstyle and approach, but there is a little trick if you want more control.
Complete the tutorial with any of the pre-made communities -- the tutorial is
complete once you have occupied your first Home Base. Then, exit to the main menu,
and go to "Manage Communities". Choose a new community to have several additional
options appear; choose to skip the tutorial. This allows you to continuously
randomize three different survivors to start your community, including unique
and exciting skills.
6. Pay Attention To Skills: All survivors have basic skills: Fighting, Cardio,
Shooting, etc. However, there is also a slot for a final skill. These are unique
skills that can greatly help your communities efforts. Some boost experience
points rates by up to 100%. Others unlock powerful new moves in combat, and
