That’s kinda important in a zombie survival game where being able to quickly react to surprise zombies is a core gameplay loop. For instance, your main character can push aside friendly NPC characters, so things like getting stuck in doorways doesn’t happen. That, alone, is INSANELY stupid.īut it gets worse in small but critical details. You can’t actually have a co-op game where both players are considered core players for progression. This means that the host is the person who’s game is advancing, while everyone else is just there to help move the host’s progression forward. ![]() One person is always the host, and everyone else you play with is a visitor. The big surprise though? The co-op is stupidly limited. Luckily SoD2 at its core is very much like SoD1, so bullet dodged there. So much so in fact that I was a bit worried the focus would change the game too much from what SoD1 was, and, as I explained in the previous post, I don’t want my sequels being totally different games. It’s important to keep in mind that a major marketing point of SoD2 was the co-op. “Steam is better at all of this” issues aside, lets talk about SoD2 as a co-op game, shall we? The linking part took me far longer than it should have, especially because the process for the first PC was different than the second, despite both running Windows 10. The shop experience was maddening because you have to get the store to ‘recognize’ your PC, which you would think would be an easy task given it’s the Microsoft Windows store and your PC runs Microsoft Windows, but nope. Since the announcement of the game I was waiting for it to come to Steam, because buying a PC game via any method outside of Steam is usually painful in comparison, but decided to break that general rule here because the wife and I really needed a decent co-op game to play together, and SoD2 seemed to be the best fit currently. As previously mentioned, I caved and purchased State of Decay 2 through the Windows Store. ![]()
