I know I'm late to this party, but State of Decay 2 is a bug-plagued mess that should not have been released yet. Loved the first game and really appreciate the many improvements and refinements that are a part of SoD2. But c'mon MS/Undead, this just sucks...
Whenever I go to the community screen, my Xbox One X sounds like it's going into hyper-drive. And if I stay on that screen for more than a few seconds, it keeps speeding up to where the console freezes and then shuts down. At first, I thought it was my own console, but a little digging and I found this on reddit (from a month ago)...
Someone in that thread stated they overcame this problem by installing the game to an external drive. So, I tried that. It didn't work. Undead Labs' patch 1.3 (from 6/8/18 ) supposedly "fixed crashes players were experiencing when loading into their communities." Nope. Still crashing on me when I go there.
Maybe it's just an X thing (due to the different coolant system), and maybe it's just a small sampling of X consoles, but you'd THINK that with the extra horsepower, we wouldn't have any problems like this, especially on a screen as static as the community screen.
I'm just thankful for GamePass so I didn't waste any money on this.
