State of Decay 2 patch 2.1 available for download, fixes several issues, full release notes revealed

Undead Labs has released a new update for its latest zombie survival game, State of Decay 2. According to the release notes, patch 2.1 fixes several missions that occasionally couldn’t be completed due to missing items and fixes an issue where sometimes newly recruited community members would overlap or be standing too close to others on the Community screen.

In addition, this latest update allows characters to properly gain experience in their close combat specialization when fighting with their close combat weapon, positions correctly the newly selected leaders on the Community screen, and re-orients correctly characters on the Community screen when changes are made to the community.

Microsoft’s Windows Store will download this patch the next time you launch its client, and you can find its complete changelog below.

  1. “The “Purchase” DLC button on Main Menu now works properly for players with new profiles who don’t own any DLC”

    Yeah . Thats important .

    1. Funny stuff. MS just has no idea just how much we laugh at them. They live in their own little world. Remember the mess that Win 10 was on release? MS employees were shocked that there were so many complaints about the new OS and people were reluctant to “upgrade” even for free to Win 10. When you can’t give something away for free then there’s probably good reason to examine your product and see why.

      1. Win10 wasn’t a mess on release. If you think it was, you’re an absolute moron in your own little moron group. “We” laugh at them – yea.. Because you’re delusional. You and the tiny, irrelevant amount of whining hipsters who agree with you.

        They *DID* give Win10 away for free. Hundreds of millions of people upgraded in the first year, intentionally.

        Windows 10 was better than Windows 7 from day one. I was in insider program from the beginning. There were never any complaints about anything except telemetry and there is still an I/O issue where you can’t drag files into a program to open them, but other than that, it was, is, and has been solid since the beginning. Not once has any insider build ever had any additional issues on any of my machines.

        Nah I’m pretty confident that like most casual plebeians who have no idea how to, and should not be allowed to, use a computer, you’re just whining and projecting to cover up your own shortcomings. Your own ignorance, laziness, and unwillingness to learn how to actually use Windows correctly.

        Microsoft also doesn’t dictate the direction of Undead Labs. It literally isn’t their concern what UL focuses on in patches. You have no idea how corporations work if you think they actually have a memo from upper management directing them to fix the purchase DLC button before actual problems, which by the way the purchase DLC button was fine – it never glitched on mine nor has there been a single post on /r/stateofdecay about it. Someone, somewhere, reported a bug.

        You disgust me, you worthless garbage.

  2. Still no patch for it being a soulless, consumer manipulative GaaS app designed to funnel players into a price gouged marketplace. Service bag of vomit. Thanks for the update, so I know I can continue to “pass this GaaS.” Hehe. Proud of that one. I’ll see myself out.

    1. Is there a patch that fixes the “i’m a pathetic aggressively disrespectful wannabe hipster” bug in the AinurThunder software?
