Plot State of Decay_Survival is luck and curse

The State of Decay does not talk about the heroes who save the world, but about ordinary people who struggle with the fate of zombies.

It is true that many gamers are eagerly awaiting a zombie pandemic to take place in the opportunity to show as in the movie or game. However, the truth is that you will never survive if a pandemic really appears. The State of Decay has shown this to players throughout the game's journey.
In this article we will experience the story of the State of Decay to see that the zombie pandemic is not what you imagine. Because the game allows the player to change character controls freely in a group of friends, the default character is the first character, Marcus Campbell, to easily guide the plot.

Go play ... then meet the zombies

Marcus Campbell, a salesperson in the supermarket, had an exciting time with his best friend, Ed Jones. When they return home in Trumbull Valley, the two are suddenly attacked by a zombie. After escaping the ambush, they run to the nearby mountain ranger station and meet the survivors who are trapped there. This group is trying to keep the building from being attacked by zombies while looking for other survivors and collecting supplies in nearby places to reserve.

At first the two friends thought they were crazy so they attacked them without cause

Marcus and Ed heard gunshots at the banks of the stream and they decided to find out if there was any chance someone would survive and need help. At the bank of the river they meet a young woman fighting zombies with a rifle, after the release of a girl named Maya Torres, who is a veteran of Afghanistan, joins the party. All 3 returned to find the building was fallen, all zombies killed.

Ed was injured when he was looking at a corpse and it struck him

In the church of the town called Church of the Ascension, they were assassinated by a group of survivors, led by Lily Ritter. Ed is injured and in danger of being turned into a zombie, Marcus has to agree with the Lily team that he will help them find additional supplies in exchange for Ed being given medicine and treatment. The path of survival of the characters in the State of Decay begins here.

Gameplay is the sequence of actions to survive

State of Decay has a mix of action, third-person shooter and base-building strategy. You will not be tied to Marcus' original character, but you can switch to other characters, starting with Ed and Maya and after a while you have enough credibility to change roles. Other.

You can change roles to other people

It's because of this that anyone can die and ... lose if you're careless, the game reproduces the true fate of the survivors of the pandemic so you can die like an ant. small but not the same hero as the other games. When you control a character that unfortunately died you will be teleported to another character until the character is out.

Surviving in the State of Decay is not easy because in addition to fighting the base guard, you have to leave the church to the town filled with zombies to collect all the supplies left over in the abandoned houses. These include food, medicines, ammunition, gasoline and especially building materials. These resources will be wasted on a daily basis so you have to keep your base in good condition and there is no shortage of resources.

Collect resources to keep your team alive

Of course, with the building materials, the building materials you bring will be used to build or upgrade the indoor area. You can build a new warehouse to store more raw materials than current ones. You can upgrade the tower to have a wider, wider range to help shoot down any zombies that get lost near the base area. Even if you can use materials to build the city's out-of-doors stations, you can get your stuff out of the warehouse without going back to the base.

Build or upgrade works to improve the lives of the group

In addition to the resources (packaged for non-personal use), you also need to collect items for you and others to use, such as painkillers, guns, ammunition, weapons. melee weapons and many other tactical support items. Bring them in as much as you can when you change your shoulders so you can take one out and not have to put the old one out.

Medicine, weapons, ammunition should be collected for long-term use

Traffic is also an informal resource, in town there are plenty of vehicles for you to get used to, without the need to travel long distances or to be safe. The game provides a fairly large map so the car is a must have tool. On the other hand you can carry only one package of materials to bring back to the base but the trunk will give you four slots. You can pick up materials, fill up the trunk of the car to run once instead of having to run through four different times.

Combat shows you are human

The battle system in the State of Decay is unique as it mostly depends on melee. Whether you live in the United States does not mean you sit on a pile of ammunition. The battle scenes are based on the remnants of the remnants collected as baseball bats, fire axes, water pipes, even the legs of the table broken into a weapon. These weapons will break after a period of use so you always have to hoard more to use.

Melee combat will wear out stamina and may break weapons

The difficulty here is that when using close-range weapons you have Stamina bar showing the durability of the object, each time the stick is dropped stamina. They will fall down when you fight or run, so if the crowds are difficult to escape because the end of stamina you will be exhausted and unable to run. Stamina only responds when you stand still or walk normally.

*The more stamina the more withdrawn should be tired but not be able to fight continuously for a long time

Especially when you are injured a lot, the upper limit of the HP bar will temporarily reduce itself, stamina too. The longer you play a character, the more tired they will become and the less they will be. You have to exit the game for a while or change the base to another character so that the old character can rest. Of course, each character has different stats, such as strength, health, and will increase with level. The more characters you use, the higher the stats, the more likely they will be Stamina and HP.
Guns are hard but hard to find and bullets are rare

In addition to direct "pounding" Zombie with sticks, you can also shoot with a gun, but guns are quite scarce so can not shoot for "cool hands" that must be reserved for critical situations. Another way is equally effective ... by car. You can iron the crowd of zombies by car. Most of the cars are quite cheap, you iron too much, the car will explode. On the other hand, the number of vehicles in the game is limited, it does not have the same that you take and then spoil is broken, always burst is explosive.

Combat support items also make fighting difficult even more exciting than ever. In addition to healing and fast snacking, Stamina immediately has other medications that help remove the stamina that is lost due to fatigue. The direct item has Zombie instinct tools like firecrackers, alarm clocks that create zombie-like explosions and gas bombs to help burn zombies.
Types of zombies and the source of the "difficulty"

As mentioned above, the game will be very difficult and make you feel like a mortal. The State of Decay rules that a zombie is beaten at one time and that even if AoE hits, it only affects the next two. You will die if you rush like Rambo into the zombie crowd more than 3 children, actually 3 melee use is quite tired. Gamers like the sense of heroism will be short of this game.

Horde is quite crowded so the most effective way to kill is by car

The zombies in the State of Decay are well designed, apart from the odd ones, there is also a pack called The Horde. They have about 10 zombies going out together and now confronting only by car. . Normal combat is very difficult even when using a gun, it takes a lot of bullets to kill.

The game also has Screamer, the zombie is not very powerful but the ability to scream so deafening you have to stand for a while. They are usually the focal point of the infection, which appears randomly in unoccupied homes and is packed with zombies. You must kill them as soon as possible as long as they will give birth to more and more Horde swarm wandering the streets.

The Juggernault is very hard and needs a lot of power to kill

There are also other types such as Zombie Armor, Feral Zombie with faster speed, Bloater after death will blow up a fierce gun to reduce HP and stamina, Juggernault is as fat as GabeN is extremely cattle.

*Companions can control the zombies or fight against the zombies

There are a lot of situations where you have to go with someone to win the Zombie. Of course, thanks to the attendant will deduct your contribution in the home, when you carry the contribution will receive this point.

**Mission does not work
**
One of the things State of Decay uses to keep you is the task. There are two types of straight lines that help to plot the plot and often repeat it automatically. They will be randomly blended. You will always have something to do, usually to save the person, pick up the other, help the neighbors or teammates to destroy certain zombies.

*A quest to destroy the infected house by killing the Screamer in the center of the house

The main tasks are also integrated into it to help you get acquainted with more friends, open events related to the plot, meet the factions. The plot progressively merges with the automatic sequencing cycle.

Factional and tragic

The State of Decay describes almost real situations when disasters take place. In addition to your team, many other groups are entrenched in the surrounding area. The group was extremely dangerous when rumors surfaced that they were attacking other survivors to steal things, and that the group was gathering in a house just to survive the day.

*When you reach enough levels, the survivor groups will join your party

Radio groups and resource exchanges for each other as well as important tasks such as helping each other entice or gathering a resource and sharing 50-50.

The army appears for mysterious purposes, not to rescue

In particular, the military is a group that appears in the game but they are hated more than welcome because they are not very interested in rescuing people. The army forced everyone to stay indoors and they went around gathering samples of blood samples for testing. Anyone who collects items has been found guilty of their foul, but people are forced home without food or drink and face the risk of Zombie infiltration at any time.

Judge Lawton with the support of the city police created a fortress

Another side is the local government under the command of Judge Lawton, who together with the sheriff reinforces the city court and acquires survivors on the condition that they return all firearms. The survivors chose to say no to this because they feared that if Lawton's base fell they would become prey to the zombies without the iron in their hands.

Survive and survive

In the midst of chaos and chaos, you have to steer your team to survive the dangers, not hunger, no shortage of ammunition and enough room for everyone. It's really a survivor's experience in the midst of a disaster, swimming for the day.

Front of Church of the Ascension

The State of Decay allows you to relocate your home from the original church to any buildings marked as eligible for a new home, ie a large, walled area. Of course, relocation will require some conditions, but generally you will not be constrained by both the controller and the base location. If you have "lost all" of the old town, you can completely move to the city and continue to collect furniture here.

A game worth playing and worth waiting for part 2

Overall, State of Decay is a great zombie themed game and has a far better gameplay than any other game in its genre. With the original version made in 2013 with relatively good graphics and sound not too prominent but compensated by the new gameplay, State of Decay has won quite a lot of attention. By 2015 it was redone to upgrade the graphics to overcome the weakness of the view that made the State of Decay significantly increased quality.

It is more interesting to have information about the State of Decay 2 will be released in late May. Let's play part 1 to see part 2 is worth looking forward to it!
