State Of Decay Title Update 2 Patch Notes
Undead Labs are staying true to their word, Currently awaiting final certification, Title update 2 is on its way to State Of Decay. Hit the jump for the full list of changes and fixes you can expect in the coming days (hopefully).
- NEW: Fixed story getting blocked if you refuse Quentin’s request to talk to the sheriff.
- NEW: Fixed soldier and zombie pathing in “The Armory” mission.
- NEW: Fixed character getting stuck in passenger seat if hit by a zombie right when you enter the vehicle.
- NEW: Corrected displayed weapon type for Hockey Stick.
- UPDATED: It is no longer possible to establish an Outpost or relocate your Home while on a mission.
There was one more change we slipped in right at the end there. Something to do with a sink. The sink? Heat sink? ‘N Sync? Oh, right:
- NEW: Enabled V-sync to eliminate screen tearing.
- Find Missing Survivor mission opportunity timeouts increased from 30 to 60 minutes.
- All mission opportunity timeouts pause while not playing.
- Fixed Leaderboard crashing for profiles with a large number of friends on the SoD Leaderboards.
- Fixed incorrect camera angle in final mission.

- Fixed rucksacks falling through floor and being unrecoverable. Rucksacks are now moved to an easily accessible location within the same building.
- You can now manufacture homemade painkillers in the Medical Lab.
- Stockpiles that are over the maximum storage provided by your current Facilities (the “cap”) will no longer drain while you are not playing. Instead, Stockpiles that exceed the cap will drain every five minutes of play at the following rate: 2 if you’re 100% over, 1.5 if you’re 50% over, and 1 if you’re 15% over.
- Improved awareness of Stockpiles that are over the cap. The Assets page now displays both the current amount and cap for each Stockpile. Stockpile amounts that are over the cap will be displayed in yellow, both in the Assets page and the Home Status panel.
- Influence in excess of Fame no longer drains while you are not playing. Influence in excess of Fame drains for every five minutes of play at the following rate: 2 if you’re 100% over, 1.5 if you’re 50% over, and 1 if you’re 15% over.
- The rate at which Stockpiles are consumed no longer factors in the number of missions played during the current day. It was causing Stockpile consumption to be too high.
- Fixed a bug that caused some characters to be given 100 ammo.
- The “Too many infestations!” to-do item is now properly cleared if you relocate your Home to a site with fewer than two infestations within 500m.

- Globally changed Want delays from 1 real-time day to 4 real-time hours.
- Duration of Fitness Regimen, Combat Training, Big Meal, Feast, and Firearms Practice changed from 3 real-time days to 2 game-time hours (where “game time” means time playing the game, not counting time that elapses while you are paused or logged out) so you get the full benefit of the bonus while you are actually playing the game.
- Cooldown on Big Meal and Feast changed from 22 real-time hours to 3 game-time hours. This means your community is “full” for 1 game-time hour after the effects of Big Meal and Feast wear off before the Facility actions can be used again.

- Train Outsiders action time changed from 1 real-time day to 90 real-time minutes.
