These are important to notate, so I am explaining them now before we delve too far into what to do. But there are many bugs which have survived through the years. State of Decay: Year One was a great game вЂ“ it still is. You can only carry so much, and items need deposited into storage lockers to be saved for later use. Weapons need to be placed in storage lockers to be repaired (along with required resources if necessary). Weapons deteriorate and need repaired over time. You should have a new home by nightfall, but likely you will get one within the first few minutes of playing if you travel by car. You canвЂ™t survive long on your own, as you will get tired and will need to switch to a different character once you exhaust your stamina and to heal any injuries you sustain. I will expand on why later, but for now be aware there are special infected that require specific skill-sets and equipment to dispatch properly that you are not equipped to handle as soon as you begin the game. It is recommended to travel by car in almost any situation, unless you are traveling very close by. You can come back for them later (the map will helpfully notate this information automatically).Д¬ars are great in State of Decay, so long as you can handle the few zombies that will be attracted by the noise.

Only so many may exist at one time, and that number is not very high. It is useful to keep any resources in their containers, as once you take one it turns into a rucksack which can be dropped on the ground for later. You cannot gather any resources (such as materials, medicine, food, etc.) but you can scavenge weapons, ammunition, and consumables while you navigate. The cities will be referred to this way to prevent confusion with names of cities for those unfamiliar with them. You will be given three options, usually one in the lower city (high zombie density, but plentiful and better loot), in a rural area in the middle of the map (very little is here to help defend your base, and a car is required to go anywhere, but the location is in the middle of the map), or in the upper town (not as congested as the city, but not as great or plentiful loot). You are thrown into the world in a random spot on the map, and you have to navigate your way through the zombie infested world to find an enclave (a safe-house occupied by NPCвЂ™s in the game) to call your home. Keep this in mind when reading the guide, as this is just what I have experienced and recommend to do based off of that. I lightly touch upon common issues or things that I have not experienced, but that you should be aware of in case it happens to you.

All information and pictures are from my personal experience. This is designed for Breakdown mode only, but can be applied in any of the three game modes.
