![]() ![]() Enter Heartland, an expansion that takes place in State of Decay’s original setting, Trumbull Valley. Fans of the first State of Decay wanted the sequel to return to its roots. There was another thing that fans wanted, and that request would be much harder to fulfill. “Ultimately, the challenge level ended up being on the mild side.” Hence, Dread Mode and Nightmare Mode, new challenges that ramp up more quickly. “We balance towards accessibility with State of Decay 2,” said Quin Richards, senior designer, in a call with Polygon. Much like the Blood Plague that haunts the survivors of State of Decay 2, these systems would eventually change and evolve based on player feedback. Undead Labs / Microsoft Studios Heartland and evolution A group of State of Decay survivors plan their next move. And with those NPCs come new stories, new scenarios, and even a few soap operas. In 2, we focused on those sandbox elements.”Ĭreating the system that could randomize believable, likable, and interesting NPCs took a large investment, but once that was done, it was possible to rapidly create characters. “ State of Decay had a little more of a story element. State of Decay 2’s characters, and the openness of that narrative, was a shift from the first game. “We wanted people to feel like they could encounter in the real world,” said Wonder Russell, director of communications at Undead Labs. As for the more erratic and personal traits, Undead Labs pulled inspiration from friends, family, and random conversations around the office. The team needed to spend time searching out various job descriptions to ensure their bases were covered. “If we wanted characters to show up with the Utilities skill, for instance, we needed to come up with a certain number of traits that might reasonably provide that skill - usually diverse and interesting careers,” Card said. Some traits are purely based off gameplay utility. While an initial set of characters can carry their weight, anyone you meet in the wild is fair game to have unlikable or downright dangerous personality traits. “The challenge in a lot of these stories is not so much the zombies themselves, but how to make a group of damaged people come together to form a community that has what it takes to survive,” said Geoffrey Card, lead designer on State of Decay 2, in an interview conducted with Polygon. Which one of these poor souls would I cast out to the wild? The doctor? The soldier? The guy who I saved from a barn, had a trait called “Pathetic”, and had just stress-eaten from our supplies? There’s just enough there that I’m able to project things onto them, or create stories on my own from what they want.Īt one point, with my community completely overfull and my resources strained to the breaking point, I looked at my collection of survivors. It’s much like XCOM or Animal Crossing in that I’m given a wide variety of characters with different personalities and wants. In the base version of State of Decay 2, those characters are randomized. There’s a lot of lore to the State of Decay universe, but the real draw - and the thing that keeps me coming back - is the characters. State of Decay 2 and Heartland take two very different approaches to characters, and it’s fascinating to see the two visions shake out. Heartland, an expansion announced at E3 2019, returned to the setting of the first game and contained a more focused narrative. The Choose Your Own Apocalypse update added new randomized start options, and increased difficulty options. The game has had a few large-scale updates that change the way players can play with the base cities. ![]() So, what’s the state of State of Decay 2, and where could the game go from here? There are a few viable options, and it all comes down to the game’s survivors. State of Decay 2 has become a success story, which is especially notable for a single-player game with very limited co-op. The game is at its strongest point yet, and according to developer Undead Labs, currently has its highest player count ever. ![]() ![]() Now, as part of Xbox Game Pass, State of Decay 2 has been steadily chugging along. State of Decay 2 originally launched in May 2018, and there’s never been a relaunch or expansion as comprehensive as No Man Sky’s Next or Sea of Thieves’ Anniversary Update. ![]() ![]() ![]() Tell me now can you make it past your caspers So we can finally fly off into NASA You was always the cheerleader of my dreams that seem to only date the head of football teams and I was the class clown that, always kept you laughin' We, were never meant to be baby we just happen So please, don't mess up the trick.

While the US has been a superpower during the post WW2 years, how many nations has it annexed? Right. Ask India how their border context is going with China these days everyone that shares a border with Russia or China is terrified of their territorial ambitions. Check out Canada's tiny military spending some time. When was the last time the US tried to conquer and annex Canada or Mexico? Canada sits right next to the world's primary superpower, with an almost entirely unguarded border. It didn't try to take those nations, their territory, or their natural resources. How much territory did the US annex in Afghanistan? Zero. How much territory did the US annex in Iraq? Zero. The same fate awaited South Korea, except the US saved them from the conquering North. The US was in Vietnam? It sure was, trying to protect the South from a conquering North when the US left, the South promptly got conquered (and yet the US is the villain in that story? yeah right). Meanwhile, the US has spent most of the post WW2 era trying to maintain global border security, including in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Europe. For Russia ideally there would be some convenient chaos, civil war in Kazakhstan, and Russia would then use border security as an excuse to de facto invade and claim territory that they'd never give back. ![]() It would be a big task for the weaker modern Russia, however they'd also really like to figure out how to sink their claws into Kazakhstan and reclaim some of that territory as part of the empire. Russia realistically destroyed Georgia, annexing part of the nation, and it's likely to eventually get around to finishing the rest. Nearly any territory in the region that is not in NATO is up for grabs for conquest as far as Russia is concerned. It has begun the (likely longer term) process of annexing Belarus, Lukashenko has capitulated into Putin's arms. Taking Ukraine's Black Sea territory will specifically make Moldova easy to conquer there is no scenario where they don't pursue that combo. Further it has its eyes on taking Moldova, either directly or by forced alliance. They'll attempt to take all of the Black Sea territory of Ukraine, further impoverishing and cutting off the remaining chunk of broken Ukraine post annexation. They already annexed Crimea and a large chunk of East Ukraine. Russia is dead set on destroying Ukraine as it exists today and will proceed to, at a minimum, annex to the Dnieper River. They very obviously won't stop there, as their military power increases dramatically over the next 10-20 years they're just getting warmed up on territorial conquest in Asia. They eagerly want several of Japan's island territories.
