    Omg Windows Store downloads are atrocious. It has to think about the download every five seconds.

    But as I was typing this it seems to have kicked off, finally? So there is hope!

    just leave it trying and it will eventually work

    I changed my region to New Zeland but I receive an error for the license acquisition when I try to download the game.
    EDIT: I fixed it. You need to reset Microsoft Store cache, so just start another download of a free app to do it, and State of Decay 2 will start downloading too.

    One thing I miss from the first SoD is the ability to board up windows.

    This is probably the first game I’ve been glad I had an Xbone to play. Digital crack. They just need to support it long term with bug fixes and content to be something great on the system.

    Eyeing an X just to get better visuals but I’ve read it’s not that huge a leap from the S?

    Personally I just waited until I could get the Mall.

    Just finished building it and with outposts its a self sustaining base, good morale and no resource usage at all. With 4 outposts you can easily run it with +1/+1 of any resource you want, at least with how I built mine.

    Strange, ive downloaded the game from NZ store. But in order to play it, I had to change the region of my xbox one x to NZ.

    Yeah, it's working fine now. The first five minutes it kept stalling, but now it's going acceptably fast.

    I think it was allocating files or something during the stops, differently than something like Steam, GOG, or Origin, in that it did it several times. But now that that it's past that it's been fine, thus far.

    thats not strange. the console is going to realize youre not from new zealand if you don't and you're trying to play a game before launch day

    having your console set to kiwi for a day wont kill ya

    Cant wait to play this (big fan of original) but currently giving the house a makeover and wont be able to get on my Xbox until next week : (

    Hopefully by then some of the bugs will be ironed out though so hey ho
     
  21. It’s native 4K which is a huge jump as it is. The game also has higher resolution texture and runs on higher pc setttings than the regular Xbox version.

    You know the S only upscales 4K right? it’s not more powerful than a normal Xbox.

    So I assume the proper base building would be using outposts that generate key resources like food, meds, etc?

    You have to keep it in that region until your region has access to it.

    Excuse me? That game has one of the biggest leaps of all games so far.
    While the X version isn't a God of War or even Witcher 3, it's still a looker while the normal version looks straight like a last gen title.

    Right now the only thing my outpost don't generate itself is meds due to the clinic taking -2 a day. This means in order to equal it out to +0 I need to have 2 outposts with +1/+1 meds, leaving a fully upgraded command center with 2 free slots which in turn means I can get +1/+1 of any resource I want with the two left over outposts while my base is at 0 upkeep cost, granting only a positive income of the resources I choose.

    In theory I never need to leave my base, as I can make anything in it right now, including bullets.

    Of course you still have the "oh shit I stepped on an ammo bag and it got ruined" kinda things I guess, so some up and down will happen, but all you need is 1 resource of each to keep morale up.

    I was having the same issues with the Ultimate Edition but was given an explanation:

    Edit: If anyone's having issues with Multiplayer on W10, make sure you go into your Gaming settings and enable "TruePlay".

    Well I'm 20 hours in. Got my base set up, but I have found zero people with Computer skills so I'm stuck at level 2. Cleared out all the plague hearts, my base is fairly sustainable, I'm taking out Juggernauts left and right, and getting around the map is pretty easy at this point. I think I need to either upgrade to a bigger base and take on more people, or move on to the next map which I'm unsure of how to do. Either way I am absolutely addicted to this game. Just like the first one it's got that Civilization pull of something always happening or on the verge of happening to keep you playing for hours past when you meant to log off.

    Nice, that was one of the two bases I was considering but chose the base more center towards the left on the map. There's also a camp ground down south that looks good.

    It's a pretty large leap actually. Looks much sharper and runs at higher settings.

    That base sounds awesome. Will definitely take that over if I make it to that map.

    You have to research the ability to move locations at your command center, I think the option is available after you upgrade it to level 2.

    Ah yea I think I remember seeing that at some point, thanks. I'll probably just move on then as it seems like some resources are starting to get scarce in the map I'm on.

    You need to complete 4 legacies, yeah so finish 4 communities. I got 2 more going atm which I use for coop and build on the biggest plots to see how far I can go and how bad things get over time if I don't do anything by hiding in my base :D

    It's really not that hard with coop once you know how to complete the story but kinda defeats the purpose. It's pretty fun IMO and gives great benefits to the partner once you return. Gotten a few guns, ammo and medical supplies. All much needed and worth.

    Not had any game breaking bugs happen. I've had a mission zone bug out so I couldn't complete it, but it was a not of importance one so it didn't do much. And I've put in like 40 or so odd hours by now.

    This one of those stupid games that only give you fucked up resolution choices when Windows is set to 125% for icon sizes and such.

    Very bloody annoying.
