Found out how you customize vehicles and turn them into mad max machines. You need a heavy vehicle upgrade toolkit. Then just park the car at a car space, go the base menu, select the carpark where the car is and finally select upgrade. Each vehicle has a specific upgrade.

I didn't know any of that. I was just gassing up random cars I found on the road and playing zombie pinball with them.

I have a van and the jeep you get at the start. When you select to upgrade you get a name and a good description of what the upgrade is, such as raised suspensions, battering rams, extra armor or extra fuel capacity,etc.
 
I went to a car because the game told me to..I get there and guess what...''I cant take that"..no fuel,oh a trunk.''I cant take that"...I drop some stuff,open a sack.''I cant take that"...lol ,this game I tell you... ;)
 
I have no choice,I am too deep in a hole and I still dont understand half of what the game tells me to do...the UI is atrocious I think for a game that needs this much management...I have enough sample but I can not make the cure because my + is at 0...? why? the quest tracker tells me to go to the infirmary to make the cure...I go there,I cant make it...how can I fix this...?

I told you guys some pages back that they are suff I hate in games and besides the night being too dark,which is not really and quite manageable,everything else is there,from weapon breaking to almost everything on a timer,to inventory being full etc etc...

Theres about 6 places I could claim but I dont have enough influence,very annoying,the doctor status is hopeless but she still hangs aound but I will have to exile her...I think I started building a garden but I am not sure...taking a break for now,maybe someone can invite me in their game later to help me figure things out.

A workshop will let you fix broken weapons. Revolvers and bolt action rifles don't degrade, jam, or break.

The Blood Plague thing I don't know. Is your suffering member in the infirmary? If not then put him there.

Why is why Doctor status hopeless? Go to your community screen and see why and fix it.

But to be honest, I don't think this game is for you at all. Seems you hate pretty much everything in it.

I wouldn't do that. Cars are very important this time round and far more scarce than SOD1. Try and get something obvious, like a cargo van...you want as many trunk slots as possible--most I have seen 8.
 
To be honest it's starting to come off like you aren't paying attention to the game hints and are now blaming it for the hell of it.


Took on my first Juggernaut and ended up taking it's head off .
 
Need to find a bigger base but it's taking a while to get someone up to the rank of leader

I would love to do that but I can't....anyway,wont bother you guys anymore,thanks for the tips but I think I will start a new community,you can have 3 going,with the stuff I know now it will probably go better...I had an outpost specialising in meds(+) but I abandonned it by mistake,all that influence for nothing,now I got a food outpost going,which I need.

How did you abandon your Outpost? I want to know how!

Yeah,in the base screen you will see circles on the right,you click that and manage the new outpost but you sort of have to do it twice once you claimed it from the flag or something...so I was at the abandon window and thought I was redoing something else...it refunds your influence though I believe so thats why I was able to make a pizza ;) outpost not long after.

Its, "Thanks" not "Tanks. "

Get yo "ANKS" right!!

lol,I know,I need a new keyboard(and not be lazy and proofread my posts :p )
 
Hmmm! Just upgraded to a new base and have a 2 large outdoor slots. I put a farm in one but not sure what to do with the second...the two choices for me are a Solar Panel farm for base wide power or a Forge for crafting ''Deadly melee weapons.''

The Power sounds good, but there is an outpost near me that can provide power, it just costs 2000 influence, that I don't have yet.

You're further than me. I'd opt for the power outpost and build something else.

You need an auto shop to make the heavy vehicles upgrade tool. Not sure if that’s a big slot or regular one though.
 
Make sure you're not playing with low batteries. My controller stopped working while I was driving. The game doesn't pause, it makes you choose between going to main menu or keep playing while everything just keeps going in the background. Why would they do that? I saw zombies pile up on my car. I switched off the console in a panic.

It pauses if you have MP switched off like I do other wise consider it an online game so no pausing the play

You don't need it. You can get them from Traders as well. The Issue with the Auto shop is that is pretty much all it does...and you need an Auto-mechanic to make them anyway, which I don't currently have.

Don't you select that at the start of your game? There were 3 options and I chose offline.

I can pause the game normally..but that doesn't seem to happen when your batteries are out of juice.

One thing I do like about this game is the achievements art,pretty good stuff,I have added a few to my background.

Few and far between from traders apparently. You could build it then make a few heavy toolkit’s and then break it down again. One of the characters I chose is a mechanic and now as the auto mechanic ability.

I moved to a new base in the middle of the map after you left. It’s pretty urban so lots of zombies around but it has a good few base options.

You can swap between online and offline all you want. In offline you can pause the game.

I'd build the solar panel farm until you have the money to take over the outpost, I built a forge last night and it seemed pretty useless so I tore it down.

That means you can make me some then. I expect 15 ready to go by the time I come back tonight, if they aren't then your community is in for a world of pain, buddy. :grin:
