State Of Decay 3's NEW TRAILER IS HERE & It's NOT WHAT I EXPECTED AT ALL.......

[@SunnyGamesYT]

What was your biggest takeaway from this Trailer? Are you excited or disappointed by what you saw? And what are you hoping to see in State Of Decay 3?

[@Mrcake420]

I wanted to see a city. From the trailer I saw only nature and barely urban areas. I do hope they make different maps, like 1 with more nature, one with nature and urban areas and one big city.

[@Jason-vm9cd]

Definitely disappointed. Until we get actual in-game footage showcasing what is actually different about SOD3 compared with it's predecessor, all I'm expecting to see is SOD2 but with slightly better graphics, and probably even more buggy than before.

[@thecursedmodder1]

One big thing that makes me hopeful that state of SOD3 will come 2025 is the fact it has a steam page now and the assets in the trailer are ingame assets. I got to say though I wish they gave us a better shot of the juggernaut. Also STOD2 has been have huge sales recently and makes me think Xbox it attempting to get a final push on STOD2 and my one prediction is update 36 is going to be the update for State of decay 2. If not only small bug fixes.

[@thecursedmodder1]

@@Jason-vm9cd I doubt it is going to be more buggy than before because undead labs has been under the watch of Microsoft during the entire development process. Unlike SOD2

Couldn't agree more Jay! By the way if you guys haven't SUBSCRIBED to JAY I would highly do so. He is one of the best creators I've ever seen and he makes AMAZING State of Decay Content!

[@Grimgaming2431]

I feel like the reason they didn't build off the first trailer was because they wanted to show a different perspective. The first trailer showed a lone survivor surviving in the woods with basically nothing. Then the second trailer shows 4 survivors coming together to protect one another. I feel like this indicates you can either go solo and live by your own rules or you can create a new society from scratch. Plus they might've wanted to show a different environment for the game. The first trailer showed a snowy landscape with minimal resources where everything is valuable then it shows you a more populated area with gas stations and motels and I think I saw a house. So I personally feel like undead labs are trying to show you that there will be different environments and you'll have to survive in the landscape you're in. I bet they'll show more gameplay footage down the line. This is basically getting us hyped. We need to be patient you know?

[@Bigfoex]

I didn’t think about that

[@Loxo18]

I wonder if they are showing each different season in a seperate trailer enabling us to connect the dots later idk

[@evilwookiee7655]

I think the 2020 trailer was an earlier concept. They might bring in infected wildlife, but I think one of the reasons we haven't gotten a release date yet is that they had to change directions with the development when the SoD2 took off again during the pandemic. And that with the renewed interest they were under pressure from Microsoft to get on peoples radar *that* year.(2020)

I'd definitely like to see body height and definition being a thing. Getting away from every character being the same height and body build. Some characters work out a hit hard or can carry more rucksacks at a time. Some are nimble and light. Making them vault over things faster. I think that would be cool

[@Boatboy_]

That sounds good. Like making survivor traits sort of affect the appearance essentially to make it make sense.

[@joshninny]

How grounded works is you have a shared world. So one person creates the world and shares it with their friends. Friends can join the shared world while the leader of the world is gone. They can add to the world and when they leave it saves. You can share the world with up to 4 people and anyone can join and add to the world without the leader being in the world. They can all join and do stuff separately and when they leave it saves. Grounded has an amazing shared world experience.

Don't get me wrong, it looks amazing, and I know it's gonna be amazing, but the devs are even more amazing. So I can't wait to get my hands on it and see where they take it over the next five or so years.

[@cameronparker7959]

Oh, one huge thing in my mind is having the ability to tell a member of your community to take a vehicle you find while exploring and bring it back to base or radio back to the base the location of a vehicle and ask them to send someone to pick it up similar to how you can ask them to loot a house for you once you explore it.

[@kingl.a.b.7180]

I wanna build my own base wherever whenever i want to, no matter the size big or small. I'd also like to see a sewer

[@herico33]

This! One of the biggest letdown I had with the other games. I want more customization for the base, more loot that actually have meanings for the base. Actually, Bethesda is better in this part than undeadlabs. I wanna loot a radio and use it and modify it, I wish they add fallout lootability and add it to state of decay

[@bobhill-ol7wp]

You don't want that.

[@thesleepyravenclaw6260]

The biggest thing I noticed and highlighted was the map. It very much resembles Providence Ridge, which was one of the more widely positively-received maps. A lot of greenery and trees and a much more aesthetically pleasing map. Even to this day, I prefer starting new communities on a different map and role-playing that there are “rumors that the outbreak didn’t hit Providence Ridge as harshly.”; and gradually having my communities working their way to Providence Ridge. I highly speculate that one of the starting maps is Providence Ridge. My boyfriend also pointed out pointed out Mount Tanner from the first trailer. Mount Tanner is snow-capped with a lot of trees and he immediately recognized the scene as being on Mount Tanner. And he suggested that that it’s map would be probably more similar to Danforth and it’s more of a circular map but still just as big as Providence Ridge. Our predictions are that two of the first starting maps are Mount Tanner and Providence Ridge; and that future maps will expand farther out.

[@shawnb5899]

I picked up Providence Ridge vibes too, it literally looked like a reskinned PR. I think there's a steel bridge down by the lumber mill base, so maybe that's significant too.

[@fearlesswee5036]

I am really interested to see how base building has been changed. In SOD2 there's a kind of meta figured out, so every base build is kinda the same. I really hope SOD3 has more facilities that might offer more strategies, like imagine if you could build an "artillery battery" on a large outdoor slot, and it'd let you spend a bunch of ammo (and maybe some parts) to wipe out nearby infestations, hordes, etc. within range. It'd also be cool to see more synergy between facilities; like a sniper tower provides spotting for the aforementioned artillery battery, increasing it's effective range.

[@VentroliteYT]

I would like to see more options for base customization, it can be pure cosmetics or have some kind of passives for your survivors or base. And more defensive options, traps turrets. I loved the “tower defense” aspect that they implemented with SoD2 and its outposts with traps.

[@fury6163]

I noticed a few things : ~zombies no longer run and they become like walkers ~when you kill a zombie its head no longer explodes like in older state of decay games ~plague walls are back ~walkie talkie can be heard by the zombies ~new shape of screamers ~you can die very easily ~zombie animals will be rare

Please keep all the accurate to real life guns in state of decay 3 and expand upon them. i don’t want all the guns to turn into DIY type things. one of my favorite things about state of decay 2 is all the guns and types of guns that are in that game.

[@mcnuggetapple]

Exactly, I’ve been saying the best part is the guns aren’t just some cobbled together scrap. Just because it’s an apocalypse doesn’t mean all of the guns just fell apart and rusted away

[@adrian_shepherd1997]

Next-Gen fits State of Decay 3 since the last game came out in 2018, 2 years prior to the release of the new Xbox Series X. I'm telling everybody that looked at that trailer. That's gameplay in there not a lot but just look how good it looks. This is my opion but it could be that those were actual gameplay with no HUD on. I'm guessing that animals, the bloater, the feral and other things we didn't get at this showcase are being saved for a third possibly final trailer. I don't mind waiting until 2026 if that's the case. The amount of things that they want to do is insane for 135 people working at Undead Labs even with the Coalition helping out. Not to mention but State of Decay 2 was an AA title when it released in 2018 and it seems they are upgrading to AAA title so a good triple A title needs time to cook and boy are the folks at Undead Labs cooking.

[@JackRabbittm]

I think the BIGGEST thing I was disappointed with is the lack of animals, normal, or zombies. The #1 highlight from the original trailer in my opinion was the wolf, and later, likely that same wolf, getting eaten by a zombified dear. Zombified animals is something we really haven't seen much in any zombie game. The only one I can really think of is 7 Days to Die. If they put a greater emphasis into that feature, I think it could seriously be something that makes State of Decay 3 stand out even more amongst competition on top of the strong emphasis on community. The lack of any mention of animals on either the trailer or the interview has me worried that maybe the whole idea got scrapped. That would be a HUGE blow to my hype for the game unfortunately. Whats more, is that animals and wildlife could open up so many more avenues of world development. Say you could capture cows for milking or slaughtering for food, chickens for eggs and food, horses for riding and travel when gas is running low. If what UDL said is true and that supplies in the world are truly running low, things like this might be the few ways of actually aquiring food. And with gas for vehicles being a hot commodity, riding horses to travel might be the only way to get around the map if vehicles are becoming harder to get your hands on or maintain with fuel. There's just so much they can do with the inclusion of wildlife. Hopefully the idea is still on the table.

[@clockworkcat93catskill87]

Everyone please like this.. To be a classic game they should implement more character moves/fatalities that do more hand to hand combat dismembering depending on the weapon/no weapon, to make zombie engagement more fulfilling and fun.. Example if u have a knife, sword, saw, bat or no weapon they do different dismembering or bone breaking moves... PUT online CO-OP team work type moves(hand to hand and shooting from the vehicles) that makes team work very FUN. Implement Example: building bonds with different characters that increase bond levels that unlock new teamwork moves unique to those characters. Also in online co-op allow you to save any items/vehicles u earn. Also improve the running/stamina system and keep running zombies.

I want to point out that in the "gameplay sections", especially where the lady is shooting the zombies with a pistol, you can see that the camera perspective stays still, but her shooting trajectory changes as she shoots zombies in multiple directions even though the camera perspective isn't moving. I think that those "gameplay" sequences are just cinematic sequences modeled to look like gameplay. The same goes for the lady with the sniper, she shot off to an angle and not at the centre of the screen. From a gameplay perspective, surely the camera view must instead be locked to where you are aiming.

I was hyped at the first trailer having that chracter tracking a deer, because I thought survival elements were going to take more of a front seat. I understand that the community is what makes the game interesting, but having characters that I as a player helped to build out, and customize/create a story with would be very cool to see. One feature from the first game that I really enjoyed was barricading. SOD2 had smoother gameplay and a lot of improvements, but a lot of the time i just felt like all the NPCs were extremely stupid/not realistic. We would be under siege and it just didnt feel like it. Barricading and truly feeling like you are trying to keep the dead out was something the first game got right. Cant wait to see what they have been cooking up. Cheers!

dawg when the narrator was saying who where you, who did you love, it was the in game characters thoughts before killing the standing still zombie

[@phillipcatron5391]

thank you sunny

[@yeboi7804]

Id love to see a relationship type aspect in the game, not necessarily romance but close friends wanting/offering to accompany you on missions or having the classic "together from the start" situation where they wont leave eachothers side UGHHH IM SO EXITEDDD

[@dalelesoway2962]

I'm hoping it has new locations. Cause I don't want it to have the old map. I wanted to be to be in like a city or the country that would be cool. Don't get me wrong. I like the map of state. Of Decay 2 But it felt very boring and flat

[@paragonveteran8992]

The multi-player from Grounded is a great way to do it. It works by one person creating the world and sharing the save file with everyone they invite. This way, the first person to log into that world acts as the host. When the last person logs out of that world, the save file for it is update to reflect all the changes made. So, all members will always have all the same updates/changes. It's a good system and one that I think will be perfect for SoD3.

[@geenobeeno1]

Fire breathing zombies is an incredibly stupid idea. NGL after that trailer Im afraid the game will suck.

[@oju1iann]

screamers already spit out something in the game I think it’s just gonna be that

[@shypaw75]

I'm very excited for SoD3. I have been playing SoD2 since Day 1 release. What I most would like to see is an update to our Legacy Pool, which has some impact to our games. I want there to be a "memory" of my characters that have played and survived a playthrough together. I want there to be some type of moral or trust bonus for that relationship that they built. I make stories up during my playthroughs, and I want it to be carried over to future playthroughs if that makes sense?

[@JJokerMoreau]

The biggest take away was seeing a pride flag but no American flags in a game that takes place in America.

[@SalviaDream]

It was probably a memory charm or something

[@iDrive100]

Womp womp

[@JJokerMoreau]

@@iDrive100 🤡

[@Parvis531]

I think a relationship system with other survivors would be pretty cool to see, like certain dialogue with NPC’s and maybe the more you take them out for runs the closer your character gets with them.

[@_I__I_ERROR_I__I_]

First one was winter, would the second be spring? Then would the trailer continue with summer fall and then winter again?

[@alvinpeterson1039]

I just checked out the new Trailer finally. And now I'm here to your video looking to hear more until I get my fix with SoD3....still playing SoD².

[@Hirowolfgang]

I've been playing state of decay since it came out on xbox arcade. I will say that you're sort of seeing the evolution in SoD 2 atm in all the added features. Even SoD 1 to sod 2. From black fever to the blood plague. From the blood plague to plague walls. Its behaving more like a bioweapon, evolving to combat the humans that are adapting to it and coming up with more and more inventive ways to fight it. CLEO has been key in combating the zombie threat, so now the plague is starting to be able to affect mechanical things. Excited to see SOD 3 more

[@CarcanoGaming]

If you see the 3rd person angles with the reload mechanics in play, the way the camera angle sways between shots, they are showing some actual gameplay in this trailer. No CGI which is great. Looks gorgeous, and I'm pumped for it!

[@natsurpgtank4746]

What I like to see in the State of Decay 3 is a different look on Trumbull Valley too see how much time progressed

[@terrylandess6072]

The speed at which the Zombie infestation occurs is the measuring stick for how many supplies would be left. If it is quick, creating areas unsafe - then there would obviously be many supplies sitting around. If slow, giving people a chance to forage among dwindling numbers, you could conceivably get several -television--seasons- years of possible supplies before foraging becomes useless.

[@danielmcghee1994]

Did you know if the blood plague red mist in the background of the car scene as it's driving through the puddle ?

[@christiankimball4801]

Do you think they could add character making or customization

[@ghostspex2182]

If Helldivers 2 can have weather (sand storm, tornados, blizzard etc), vegetation, water, tons of mobs and 4 players and is built on an old engine that is not commercially available anymore. I don't see why SoD3 cannot have the same or better if its using UE5.

[@antiochlegacy5999]

Amazing video! Here's my take. I get the community vibes, the value each member brings to the community, the relationships being formed. The group dynamics appears to be the foundation the devs are focusing on; narrations, backstory and whatnot. Take it a step further? Comments on this thread mentioned customization whether attire, base-build or facial futures. I would suggest facial adaptation from the real world. Why not mirror your actual face to that of your chosen character? Wouldn't that be awesome. A lot of "something" could come from that modification alone. Probably next level VR but without the bulky headstrap. Just imagine your face looking at a horde? Ohhh man, what a sight. But that's just me. 😁😄

[@JonBonZombie]

@SunnyGames . In regards.to the 1st trailer.. you mentioned an online persistant world. Ok what if what was goinb on in the snow up in the mountains was going on so to speak at the same time as the new trailer in the lowlands. And the weather it makes total sense high up innthe hills is the snow and its all.mistu and rainy down low on road ..Dude . Great video. As you can tell im more than hyped. I got a lot of thoughs om putting into a vid soon.

[@GamerCash12]

Helicopters,Hunting,machine guns, more military equipment

[@ttnnknight7952]

Please don’t rush take your time to develop an awesome game I’m sad we didn’t get a set date but I can wait and when this game comes out y’all definitely getting my money 💯💕🧟🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️

[@chrishaugh1655]

I want more control over my customization of vehicles and weapons and clothing. I don't want to just click a button and it magically transforms the vehicle into a preset design. Vehicles: - Tire options - Suspension options - Armor plating options - Engine Upgrades - Fuel Upgrades - Storage Upgrades - Additional weapon options (like spikes/blades, turrets, etc.) I'd also like to see within that vehicle customization, forcing players to make choices between different things like for example if you choose more storage you have sacrifice how much armor you can put on the vehicle due to weight limitations.

[@Joker-DarkKnight]

With coop are you able to create different communities with friends on the same map? Example: one of your buds make a brand new community on the northern part of the map, and then you have your community on the southern or western side of the map, creating a strong faction of allies to fight down plaque hearts and enemy communities. I'm hyped for this game.

[@UCUCUC27]

i like the idea that the shrine is a building that preserves dead community member traits somehow you can benefit from somehow

[@Rayzon17]

I just have one question, how will the 4 player co op work in the shared world. New game, the 4 players get 3 starting people they can swap to? Because that would be a starting community of 12 players... thats a big ass community...

[@chrishaugh1655]

One thing I never seen anyone mention in these videos, which I hope happens, is more focus on injuries and medicine. This is type of world, avoiding inquires should be a priority and having people with the necessary skills to help fix/repair different types of injuries should be more important. Not just, lay on this cot for a day and you're fine. I want to see specific body part injuries, and each type to have a different affect on your character. - Example A, you sprain your ankle. You now have limited mobility, can't climb/run for X amount of time. - Example B, you break your right arm. You can no longer use weapons that require both arms/hands for X amount of time. I'd also like to see different types of wounds that cause different levels of bleeding ranging from a minor cut that maybe you need to find antibiotics for so it doesn't cause and infection to a severe laceration that requires immediate medical care or you could potentially die. If you're going to make the world more dark/gritty and give the game a more serious tone, things like would not only amplify the danger and risk, but also put more emphasis on tactics and choosing when to engage and when to avoid certain scenarios. Outside of getting overwhelmed in STOD2, you never really felt scared to venture out into the world because healing from injuries was so simple and easy.

[@Apogenezis]

Will I be able to play it solo / offline?

[@blackbat908]

All the SOD games are solo with the option to play with others, so yes.

[@americanrogue7644]

HUGE MAP FOR MULTIPLAYER AND LONGEVITY. I feel with the announcement that multiplayer will work like shared worlds in grounded I hope the map is massive and each player has the option to be their own community all in one map. Weather, relationships, motorcycles or other vehicle types including military vehicles, the ability to build outpost like they are many bases and stations survivors at them, and finally might seem a little extreme but if they make longevity a focus which is a VERY important thing I think they should add some form of time passing such as aging and even children. 1 - Massive Map Size/City/interconnected maps 2 - Longevity/passing of time done better/more content 3 - better bases, outpost, and enclaves 4 - Relationships and character focus/ attachments 5 - Weather 6 - Better Loot System 7 - Moar Zombies/types 8 - Better Difficulty scaling( Realistic things made harder or it gets harder faster as time progresses, no car breaking faster, no single survivor needing 6 food in an apocalypse) 9 - Better and more vehicles 10 - Multiplayer has the option for players to have their own separate communities in the shared worlds and can have a good diplomacy system between the players and enclaves (Big want very unlikely) Scaled Needs to wants. I know it says keep ideas short but I made this list for overall community input I’ve seen across social media

[@Noteworthy_]

I hope the weapon thing goes into more depth, like fully restoring proper weapons by finding their correct parts on other guns

[@slenderman-do7yb]

One thing I want to see is siphoning, the idea of running out of gas in the middle of nowhere and having to siphon old vehicles would be awesome. Also adding into that would be treating old gas with chemicals found within the world to make it useful again as in real life gas can’t be used years down the line after sitting, so having a setup in which you can reuse it for vehicles or other systems would be amazing. Having a mod or a build be put into the base to have that process happen. Or even allow the base to make chemicals to just bring along and cleanse the siphoned gas would be exciting too!

[@evilwookiee7655]

Having played Grounded's co-op it's more than that. You literally share a save across the participants computers. It is very similar to a dedicated server without being online/live when no one is on the game.

[@Pilgrimetro]

Would be cool if they actually added a way to remember dead survivors other than an unmarked grave in the community tab, like a certain item they had or just a permanent description of what they did

[@mr.cheese9752]

man I would really like to see how the weather is, like maybe show what it's like when it starts to rain and what the people in game are doing in that time, like maybe they are doing a loot-run then it starts raining, or maybe your on your last-stand then heavy rain and thunder comes around, it would also be really cool if there is a full on weather cycle, like that first trailer back in 2020, down side to this is the animals

[@figgypudding6996]

Things I’d love to see in SoD3: More dynamic dialogue between characters - After beating the game a few times, you know what they’re going to say before they even say it. More dynamic personal quest lines - it’s like everybody in the apocalypse has an prepper aunt with jeep and a high capacity .22 Larger communities / city building - Recruiting non playable characters to preform background tasks could liven up base a bit, with the treatment of these characters dependent on the leadership style (builder, trader, sheriff, warlord) Random human NPC encounters - Friendly, neutral, or hostile random encounters would give a lot of life and tension to the world, if they’re different enough to not all feel the same. Following the sound of gunshots and finding someone fighting off a horde from the roof of a car like in the trailer or two groups fighting it out would be really cool, but should still be a rare RNG roll. Another story mode like Trumbull Valley had!! - They did a great job with this, I’d like to see it again Kill off Lilly Ritter - I find her voice to be very annoying and too upbeat for the State of Decay universe Pin this comment so the devs can see!!

[@daniels.3605]

Appears like some plague heart fog during the scene where the car drives through the woods. You see that red fog thingie in the background in the forest. Really hoping for some super nice multiplayer. We played all of state of decay 2 together. So having an even nicer, bigger and more independent coop mode sounds amazing. Really hope gets as good as the expectations make it appear.

[@Hulk62681]

I just can’t wait for SOD3 🎉. I absolutely hope you can build coop communities. My brother and I play this religiously and would definitely build one together

[@cameronparker7959]

I love the idea of adding animals into the game, similar to RD2 that you can hunt for food, some that you can train to be a pet/companion and some that have gone feral that pose a threat as you're exploring.

[@Jaeger_89]

I wish we could have freak variety even in the higher difficulties. I understand the ramp up in difficulty in Lethal, but it would add a lot of variety to it if we had the non-blood plague versions also roaming around. Maybe they could be more numerous so as to keep the challenge high...
