  • This video demonstrates the most important but a hidden mechanics about the guns of State of Decay 2. You should know this before permanently choosing a firearm for your community members.
    Prepper's 10/22 is definitely a favorite firearm of a lot of players because it is durable and efficient. It is shown as an extremely durable gun in its specifications but the gun is extremely fragile. That's the case with all other semi auto 22 guns and all the ordinary handguns. These guns maybe efficient in their ammo usage but these are extremely inefficient in parts usage.

      There are a lot of State of Decay 2 RUclipsrs that put out "how to guides," but no one compares to you. Not only have you made the game more manageable in Lethal, you make it easy to figure out how to go about clearing a town. This is a great video. I tend to stick to these weapons that you have warned us about in the video. Never again. Thank you. You're awesome.

    Now this one for me is incredibly useful. Now I know which guns I'll just scrap the moment I get it.

      I would say forget the C4, use Bloater Gas grenades + a firework for the biggest boom in the game.

      @@geroffmilan3328 I will not disagree but using firecrackers is unreliable like Rvid said. I tried and tested it as well and its never a guarantee 3 booms to kill a heart but sometimes it does work. I always use road flares as an igniter for, like what Rvid said "consistent results".
      Bloater Gas is really valuable to me too not just on killing plague hearts but also hostile enclaves. I'd rather not waste this extra bloater gas just in case I need to clear "unwanted" or hostile enclaves to prevent mission lagging on your legacy missions.

      The mares leg is a unique underleaver unbreakable side arm.

      Weapons Handling will restore 50% of the weapon's durability... But with weapons handling, we never need to repair the guns with parts anyway... if it breaks, we can repair it as many times as we can...there's no limit...
      But this video is about younger communities where our survivors will not have specialized in any skills.. Besides most people's favorite is Gunslinging.. so they will go for Gunslinging unless it is RT contractor

    Parts are so incredibly easy to get, that this matters very little. Just collect every melee or ranged weapon you don't plan to use, and salvage them. You should have enough parts to build a castle within a couple of ingame days. A crossbow alone yields over 70 parts, and if you combine this with salvaging weapon remains, you have to work hard to run out of the stuff.

    • @garciababy559
      @garciababy559 3 года назад +5

      Not on lethal mode. Parts are very scarce. And if you do get any, it’s almost always in increments of lower than 10. That’s why I always get every weapon and gun I can so I can salvage when I need extra parts. Salvage furnace is a godsend 👍

    The Soviet PPsh-41 gun from the world war 2 pack remains amongst my top weapons. Seems to be the rarest from the world war 2 pack. Never had a dedicated bounty & only available in random drops like special weapon crates occasional plague heart.
    There’s 1 major downfall, it has a integrated brake within the weapon so no silencer mods can be attached. There’s no scope but it’s probably my favourite assault class gun in the game. Uses 9mm, holds 50in a mag , fairly durable. No scope but can switch between auto, burst, single. It’s a loud gun but has a lot of the fun factor about guns in games. A lot like the danger dog, bit like the polar opposite of its greatness, probably the inspiration towards the danger dog, devs like their own babies over real life inspirations so the soviet beast got pushed to the back

    Thanks RVidD this is perfectly timed as I am struggling for parts at the moment in my new update play through. I have noticed some new bugs which I hope you will cover soon. When in a truck if a feral attacks the cargo bed from the side it can instantly set it on fire (this as happened twice). Also they have attacked me without roaring to announce they are there. One last thing, I climb onto vehicles when attacking plague hearts to herd the zombies ready for a Molotov or fuel bomb, now when I do this it attracts ferals and then juggernauts.

    Weapon durability doesnt really matter tho. Like. Almost all gun skills can un-jam a gun indefinitely. Red talon guys specifically can do a lot with their gun skills. I get the purpose of the vid but tbh its like, the least important part of the game after you have atleast 1 survivor with a maxed gun skill.

    • @StateofDecayScience
      @StateofDecayScience  3 года назад +3

      This video is mainly focusing on younger communities where none of our survivors will have specialized a skill.
      Not all guns skills can un-jam a gun. Only weapons handling skill can. And also RT contractors can. So specializing any gun skill will not solve this problem.
      In harder difficulties, younger comminutes will already be in a parts shortage and these guns will make things much worse.
      Parts will be one of the most important resources of an younger community. (I have 40000+ parts in my permanent community where parts doesn't matter)

  • @BenignAndaHalf
    @BenignAndaHalf 3 года назад +2

    No one should be letting their weapons pass 20 parts to repair. Weapon handling is a waste of a specialty, gunslinging is by far the best of the 4. Close Kombat (yes I used a K) incentivizes using the mini knife as much as possible, specifically by executions. I do agree with using 9mm SMG’s as your main as long as you aren’t trigger happy, though I prefer 50 round 5.56.
