"As we close out our first week of the zombie apocalypse, we wanted to welcome and say thank you to the over one million fans playing State of Decay 2, helping break the million player mark, and answering the question: how will you survive?

Since Early Access for the Ultimate Edition on May 18 and the global release of the Standard Edition on May 22, we have had over a million survivors across the globe playing and creating their own zombie survival story. Throughout launch, there have been over six million combined hours of State of Decay 2 gameplay, and we’ve watched nearly 3.5M hours of gameplay across Mixer, Twitch and YouTube Gaming from over 41,000 unique broadcasts.

Watching players create new communities, forge friendships and test survival skills contributed to making State of Decay 2 one of the top-watched titles this week. Across player communities, we’ve seen survivors kill over 675 million zombies, throw over 6 million firecrackers and fireworks (survivors still find ways to celebrate), eat over 6 million bags of snacks, read over 2 million textbooks, and typically survive for about three days (with some players surviving for over an in-game month – a lofty goal to aim for your session this weekend)."

State of Decay 2 has over a million players in two days (well it would be cheating to call it "two days", because the ultimate edition came out a few days before the standard, but whatever)

 



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

I guess I’ll just talk about SoD2 here since every SoD thread here turns to dogshit.

I finally found a van. The extra storage space is nice (8 slots) but it controls like a tank, and guzzles gas like it’s
nothing. I typically have to carry two gas jugs just to take it out on missions, negating the benefit of extra cargo space in the first place.

I murdered some survivors yesterday. To be fair, they stole from an enclave group friendly with us, and opened fire on us first. But dead survivors carry the sweetest loot.

I just moved from my original base to a bigger one, will probably move to the next map next time I want to upgrade.



A bit disappointing, I would prefer for them to offer multiple settings to choose from. I don't have an X yet, but I'd like to get one some day, and for me the performance upgrade would be the most advantageous.



I have a question about SoD2.
If my backpack is full where do i store my resources? I have just been dropping them at a random room in my base.

Globally recognized? I've never even heard of it.

I highly doubt that's the same game. New IP's are not globally recognized. 

I am dissapointed, hoped for a Kart game. Maybe it had Forza name, but changed in the middle of the development? If I were Microsoft I wouldnt put one of your big names on games like this. They wanted to defend Halo IP so I wouldnt be surprised that same thing happened here( even though they hired the studio).



Halo spinoff rumours? Turns out to be an arcade cabinet

Forza spinoff rumours? Turns out to be an f2p mobile-looking windows only racing game

What's next? The rumoured gears spinoff is a gears themed pinball game exclusive to PS4?

It's frustrating that they are spending their money on everything but Xbox.

Man did we really get Jerked around with this one, what a giant waste of time. At least it's good to know what they are actually working on, I lost my interest as soon as we found out it was going to be a racer though.

I'd prefer they make new ip's or resurrect some old ones than more spinoffs.

And i doubt they spent much money making those two games.
