    Story, voice work, and animations are all still goofy, but throw in co-op multiplayer, better endgame content, and more reasons to replay it, and State of Decay 2 is the type of game with which certain players will fall in love. There's always something to do and in a classically sim style, it's hard to know when to stop. It's the most realistic zombie apocalypse simulation in the world and that's a beautiful thing.

    Too bad for a technical section that is at times really problematic, which fortunately cannot tarnish the excellent qualities of this sequel: a title that fans should play without hesitation.

    State of Decay 2 is the classic "more of the same" sequel which, however, thanks to some interesting innovations and a deep game formula, does not disappoint.

    State of Decay 2 is a nice game and it looks good, but it has a considerable amount of errors that take away much of its brightness. It is nice that the events that happen within your game are a consequence of the actions of each player, given that feeling that each of their actions is unrepeatable. Spending most of the game looking for resources in coolers, kitchens, farms and other places, is annoying and saps much of the fun that can be as the game becomes a slow and repetitive activity.

    State of Decay 2 has a lot to love, but it’s overwhelmed by legacy issues and a slew of all-new ones that came along for the co-op ride.

    State of Decay 2 is an interesting "post zombie apocalypse life simulator" that forces the player to manage every aspect of a survivor's life. It's too bad that its story isn't very interesting. And what to say about those bugs: there are just so many of them... With better production values, State of Decay could have been a truly special game.

    I was about to launch into another broken situation here, but I’m sure you get the point. The point is this: although there’s a very competent core loop and entertaining resource management sim somewhere within State of Decay 2, it’s really, really, broken. Unacceptably so. It frustrated me mightily to see a flash of a game I wanted to play, only to be immediately reminded that it’s not ready for release.

    ok people, let me put it like this State of Decay 2 is the best game I've played and in a lot people perspective it is a ok game, but eitherok people, let me put it like this State of Decay 2 is the best game I've played and in a lot people perspective it is a ok game, but either way you can't say it sucks by just watching game. People who thinks it is way to hardcore is because they can't handle that I respect that but don't say it sucks because it's hard to play you should've done research. With that you can't say it's trash because you play PS4 because you just think PS4 is way superior, well that's your opinion same for PC players. I have seen game play of God of War and Detroit become humans and I believe the game play is great and my brother play God of War and told me it is great. A lot of people know about the new Spider man Ps4 game rant that is going on and I think people are salty because they can't play a childhood game I would too but I won't say the game sucks, I say it looks like top tier game, And the funny part I'm only 11 years old and I'm more mature. In summary just grow up.… Expand

    Notes that I've ONLY played this game Co-Op. I have not ran my own community, only assisted others in theirs. I bought this fully intendingNotes that I've ONLY played this game Co-Op. I have not ran my own community, only assisted others in theirs. I bought this fully intending to only play it with friends.

    Bugs. Bugs. Bugs.

    Once you load into a game, anything that changes(outposts founded, anything is built, doors that were open before you logged in) will not appear. I played the game for 3 hours before I even knew what the medical center looked like because instead of building it for me, the game preferred to just allow the NPCs to float in the air.

    I could not assist any new players because as a visitor in their community I do not have access to a bulk of the menus. It also was not made clear that the store lockers are assigned to the players, not the community. This means that I can hop into others world and essentially steal their loot for my own community, telling them I found scraps instead of being honest about a decent weapon or backpack that I may of actually uncovered.

    This game, even with the current bugs is really fun. However as I've continued to play the game and saw no changes to these bugs to the point that I know what causes them and how to remedy them, it's hard to believe this game was released without knowledge that they are in the game. Releasing a product and charging for the product, knowing the product isn't finished or polished beyond a rare occurrence, cannot/should not receive a score greater than 5.    … Expand
