State of Decay: developer Q&A and tactics video
Undead Labs recently published a battery of answers to your earnest questions about its upcoming State of Decay. Despite some nit-picky simulation holes, this game is a staggering foray into the developing zombie-apocalypse-survival-simulation genre. The video above demonstrates how you might fight through the undead to scavenge some food and supplies with the help of your team.
State of Decay has a story to play through, but the game revolves around careful management of resources and fortifications, which ensures your survivors stay alive. Pick a base, bolt the doors and make a plan. Your type of base depends on where you settle. Some players may prefer to grow their own food, while others are content to scrape leftovers from society. Electricity is nice, but you will pay the price in fuel for the generators. You will also need to consider your team members and their personal skills to keep your society running. A nurse will make a better medic for your team than a mechanic. Skills also delve into weapon proficiency to speed up reloads or keep your gun from jamming.
