State of Decay 2’s upcoming Update 34 is about to introduce a completely new feature to the game called Curveballs. This feature will trigger random events on the game like zombies & plague heart mutations and community changes one after another. The events can have both positive and negative effects like stronger/weaker zombie mutations, improved/weaker community, resourceful/drained map etc. So, let’s take a look at all the events the curveballs feature will trigger on the game.

Wonder if you can have some of the features if you like some portions of the update
I kind of want to gather a squad and defeat the black plague heart without using its weakness 😏
That expanding black heart scares me.
Great video brother displaying all the curveballs. I love the clear and concise way you deliver your content man. All the tremendous work that Wushu Studios put in on this update and yet I am still excited too see some of what is in the files that hasnt come out yet.
Great vid RvidD! 👍😎
Really looking forward to this update watching this made me jump back on state of decay 2 as I type lol.
Nice events. Nice video
Update sounds good to me makes the whole virus feel like it's growing and mutating
When head is lost, zombie should attack at every direction
Do we have to have curveballs on? Or can we turn them off
I havn't even played the previous version yet . Are those purple zones , new features of previous update or upcoming feature?
On release this game was plagued with bugs. The fact that the dev team are still updating this game is a testament to what a game developer should be, willing to admit their problems and consistently work to make the game better for all players. Love to see it
RvidD ily
Bro the black heart is scary 😦
I love it! I’m not sure why anyone would want it turned off, adds exactly the twist I need
What base is that? I don't recognize it
Some great work! Thank you very much for this
Good job as always and thanks for your work 🙂
Your accent is difficult to understand sometimes.
Not sure I'd want these.
This update is lame, even if it’s a test for the new game. You should leave things like this in the test realm
Impressive testing!
Don't care about this , i want a new game , new maps – new people. new new new.
Now it's time to reinstall the game, I guess
Nice video. Thank you for putting portuguese in the subtitles. 😊❤
keep up the good work UL! You guys are real developers!
Really excited for this update, some changes to force you to adapt your normal gameplay loop
They mention random enemy enclave events on the map. outside of bases . not sure
I really hope they fix the stability issues in this update because the game is unplayable for me on the beta due to crashes and soft-locks.
I’m hopping that we have throwing weapons one day in this game. Like tomahawks, throwing knifes etc. I also wish friendly enclaves were more alive. Can help u out with under a siege like how we help them every now and then. I was also praying they make ur friendly enclaves around the map level up as well over time. Like how you enlist a follower there fighting and shooting goes up as u take them on adventures and I can’t stand how they don’t regenerate health and cure them self with cures when they get infected but other then that this game is solid and can’t wIt for sod 3
I’m a pretty big fan of some of these (namely black plague heart and all the ones involving raiders) but absolutely do not like the idea of exploding zombies, stink zombies, weakened or strengthened zombies, etc. I think that they all seem too arcadey and immersion breaking/disruptive to the flow of regular gameplay for my liking. I really hope that eventually we’ll have the option to enable certain ones showing up, while avoiding others
I can't find this feature on PTR beta test on steam ? Is only available for streamers or YouTubers ? On my mine no curveball features add even the version is 34..😢😢
Stupid additions. Game have tons of glitches and bugs. Instead of stupid thigs they should work on fixes. Also some update making character better animated while changing directions. Like inertia as in GTA5 or T.C. Division. Weapon zooming is pathetic as it changes FOV setting only. Also K+M for PC is pathetically executed.
Seriously this 34 is so dumb!
They should make it more immersive like project zomboid
Is this on Xbox already i haven’t seen curveballs
Still waiting and hoping for a community overhaul
Good grief. I always play on Lethal these days, but I do think I will lower the difficulty if I am going to try this. I will probably lose a lot of survivors again, just like I did after Update 33.
This is gonna be scary. I rely on my pyro launcher and the fact they can be fire resistant is terrifying.
Can you disable this?
I always been patient with undead labs with all the updates in the past but I must say I think this one is trash a big waste of time and resources in my opinion. I'm just happy it's an optional update which I definitely going to opt out on.
