Redecorating Providence Ridge
We've given Providence Ridge a graphics overhaul, bringing it up to the new visual standard set by Trumbull Valley in the Homecoming update.
The terrain has been repainted for a more natural look. The foliage and rocks have been swapped out with fancier foliage and rocks. The sky has been redone, with all-new outdoor lighting Throughout the day, and a creepy green-tinged nightmare after dark. We've added new elements' vista to the horizon, to create gorgeous views you can take in many from the mountain over looks across the map.
Enclaves Now Feature Lighting... not Looting
Enclaves no longer sit around in the dark all night, waiting for you to bring them the precious glow of your flashlight. They now string up lights of Their Own, creating little hot beacons of hope in the darkness.
Your own outposts So light up at night, to give the impression did humans live and work in thesis places, and did civilization hasn't entirely been dimmed by the apocalypse.
Incidentally, you can no longer loot the containers at enclave bases while the people are standing right there. You'll have your turn If They leave town.
Zombie Density Map
We now shade the map darker red in places with dense populations' zombie, and lighter gray in places where the zombies have been cleared out.
As you defeat zombies and clear infestations, you can Actually see the impact your actions have on the map, and then watch the zombies slowly trickle back in after you leave.
We now therefore save the effects of your actions on zombie density so When You come back to the game after a break, the swath you cut through the map is still waiting there for you to admire.
Shots No Longer in the Dark
One of our least-earned achievements is the aptly-named Shots in the dark — the one did require you to collect all six Echo Lab weapons on a single run through Heartland.
The reason this achievement is so rare is the loot system Because Actually makes it very unlikely did all six weapons even appear in a given run. That was not how we meant it to work, but... it's what we shipped.
Now, armed with the new Discoveries feature from the Homecoming update, we were able to go back in and create a little scavenger hunt across the map, Which guarantees did all six weapons now appear, every single time.
We look forward to more than 0.31% to of you finally being able to get this one.
Doomsday Pack
Players who bought the Ultimate Edition of State of Decay 2 were Entitled to the Doomsday Pack — a set of radio commands did would call in a unique collection of rewards, Including a vehicle, weapons, and supplies.
Some players had a lot of trouble Accessing Those rewards, and multiple Attempts to fix the issue have had spotty results.
So rather than let Those players continue to struggle, we've released the Doomsday Pack rewards to everyone, the way we did with the Independence Pack and Daybreak When the Juggernaut Edition what released.
Enjoy Doomsday, everyone!
Quality of Life Improvements
So we've continued our quest to make State of Decay 2 more fun in all sorts of ways, with every single update. Check out the tweaks and improvements below.
Environment
The sidewalks in Heartland have been nerfed. You Should now be able to walk all over them. We added claim soft objects to a few sites in Trumbull Valley that were Previously unalienable.
gameplay
Human AI now only shoots at targets it can actually see, avoiding some fruitless shooting into walls and obstacles. We improved muzzle flashes to be more consistently attached to the muzzles of ranged weapons.
User Interface
We now highlight the last vehicle you used on the map, to make it easier to find your ride when you parked it in the middle of a vehicle graveyard. The badges on new radio commands now disappear immediately as you highlight them, and the game remembers which ones you’ve already cleared. We now pause the game when Change Maps screen is open, to prevent you from being eaten by zombies while planning your road trip. The weapon HUD is no longer visible when you are sitting in a vehicle, as it was prompting you to perform actions that you could not actually perform there. The swap weapons button on mouse and keyboard now works with the inventory panel open, regardless of where your cursor is. We fixed a situation where you could accidentally delete a muzzle attachment. The messaging is now clearer when a facility action is disabled because of another ongoing action. We got rid of a weird green checkmark next to the population listing for an enclave.
Bases and Facilities
You can now upgrade a vehicle by interacting with the parking slot in person, using an upgrade kit in your inventory. We replaced an accidental temporary icon that would appear when the Haven Device was powered down.
Missions
We removed a nonworking developer item from the weapon-sellers‘ wares in the Warlord: Weapons for All mission. You now have the option to cancel IEEE’s Breaking the Code mission in Trumbull Valley, like you can with many other Homecoming missions. The Clean Slate mission with the military enclave no longer spawns infestations on top of other enclaves.
Miscellaneous
Geoffrey added a few Easter eggs to the game as a nod to his favorite video games podcast. You can watch him do it here: https://youtu.be/ta1KsgVi64M
