I'm at level 13 of Breakdown. I got a "lost survivor" mission for an enclave at the Church base (the one that's your first base in vanilla SoD), and headed up there. Now, in the higher levels of Breakdown, this area is extremely dangerous. The woods spanning from the backyard of the base to the trailer park are full of zombies, and if you go through my post history in this thread, you'll see that this is where a previous play through of mine went off the rails thanks to the cascading effect of a bunch of zombies being drawn into this base and killing like four of my best survivors. Pretty much the same thing happened this time. Immediately outside of the gate, we get jumped by a bunch of zombies, and have to fight our way to the point where the missing person is. We find them and are making our way back, but now there's even more zombies nipping at our heels. I take a few out with a silenced firearm, but one of my AI counterparts fires an unsuppressed weapon that draws every ghoul around from seemingly miles away. At this point, I get jumped by a feral and manage to kick it off after losing 40% of my health, and decide "gently caress it, I'm out." I try to extricate the two other survivors, but one dies in front of me and the other is grievously wounded. I manage to get the former missing person back to the church and jump in my car, but there are still scores of zombies coming into the church. Everyone in that community died the attack that night. My own storage locker is full now, so when I find guns I don't want, I'll head up there to drop them off. There are no survivors left, just an empty base with a supply locker in there. It's pretty eerie.

I'm convinced that the only reason Stealth Kill and Double Kill are ever used is for the achievements.

Do mods work on the newest version? Have the original + DLC's but the updated graphics are tempting me to buy it next time it goes on sale

No crossbow mod has been updated yet because of the way YOSE handles items or something, which sucks because SoD isn't worth playing without crossbows.

I just got this, having a lot of fun with it, but I really need to recruit some survivors (in order to move to the base I want) and I can't figure out which step I'm missing. We have a group of generic survivors right next to us, I did all their missions, their trust bar is full, but now I only have the option to greet them. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to progress the story more? Edit: This question is kinda moot now; I ended up restarting because literally half my survivors died to what I'm pretty sure was the feral each time. I am not good at this game. Random Asshole fucked around with this message at 10:36 on Oct 25, 2015 |

Do I need to progress the story more? They randomly ask to join sometimes, but not always. If you go to the construction menu and select the radio tower there should be an option to look for survivors. There's a pretty good chance you'll get someone that wants to join.

Patch Notes for the recent update: Steam players: Please note that we had to change the update process, and part of that change is that you'll be downloading a huge patch - possibly the entire game - even though we didn't change THAT many files. I am really sorry about that, but there was nothing else we could do. Edit to add: PC players! Specific notes to you have been added to this post! Grab a beverage and enjoy the notes while we wait for the patch machinery to turn. NEW BREAKDOWN LEVELS: - Added new difficulty levels to Breakdown. Levels now increase in difficulty up to level 100 (with later increases updating every 5 levels). Score multiplier also increases as you progress in difficulty. - Here are the details for new Breakdown levels: Levels Description 0 Welcome to Breakdown! 1-8 Fewer resources. Fewer cars.

If the spot is empty then display a message that no vehicle is parked there. - The repair body action will now also repair components with type bumper and hull - Manual vehicle repair now replaces bumper after it has been broken off - When a tire is repaired, the “rim” visual is now replaced with the inflated tire. - Manual vehicle repair 'Replace Tires' now properly repair all tires NEW GENERAL: - Faster character switching. - Reduce MAX_LIVE_NPC_ZOMBIES and increase MAX_LIVE_ZOMBIES. - Added 'Extras' radio menu; all challenge rewards on the "Extras" radio menu - Added new graphic to Radio menu's RadioSetChannelLabels() function - Jurassic Junction billboards are now non-destructable (they never regenerated properly) FIXES: - Fix for some users unable to have all DLC installed - Players should now retroactively receive achievements for characters they have unlocked when they import a saved game. (You should no longer need to start over and lose a saved game.) - Added mood things to characters that lacked them (should prevent “perma-grim”) - Fixes for particle burn effect: - Sometimes the effect would not show up at all - this is fixed. - Sometimes the effect would show up really late in the animation - this is fixed. - Made the number of zombies activated from Molotov more consistent. - Tiny fixes for memory leak - Fix crash after remote sign out on restart - Fix for dam flies which were causing crash - Fix crash when loading in with more than 55 community members - Fix for Ferals running at players that are already in a grab from another Feral. - The game no longer shows an icon for a repair action at all if the corresponding component is not damaged enough to warrant repairs - Music bug fixes for missing soundtrack music cue, incorrect credits music - Fixed issue with the player upgrading the workshop to a machine shop and getting access to repair engine, but no longer being able to repair tires, doors or body. - Game now aborts auto repair if vehicle blows up the precise instant you start a repair - Fixed bad physics after repairing wheels on military pickup, by forcing suspension stiffness to be automatically computed. - Fixed blip in the UI front end regarding the autosave message - Fix for screen becoming black during play on Xbox - Updated hint text for the radio changes - Prevent zombies spawning too close or too visible when exiting vehicle. - Fix undefined string in "select breakdown difficulty" front end screen - NPC’s will stop running immediately after loading into a game - We now prevent the loading screen from showing if the game loads in before the loading screen does. - Visible draw reduced on starting a new game of Lifeline, to reduce load in lag - Base defense names will no longer show up as debug names in journal - Invalid action returns players to the 'home' page of the journal instead of attempting to display action.

This looks more like a bigger better version of the game, with multiplayer, instead of a dumb MMO like was the rumor. I hope.

If you already own the first version? Probably not worth it unless you pay $5. If you don't own the original, might as well get the updated one. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-02-16-heres-whats-new-in-state-of-decay-year-one-survival-edition
