State of Decay voorzien van derde update

State of Decay is sinds diens launch in mum van tijd uitgegroeid tot een hit op Xbox LIVE. Dat, terwijl de game van begin af aan klachten over het grote aantal bugs over zich heen kreeg. Ontwikkelaar Undead Labs heeft de game al eerder van een aantal updates voorzien, maar State of Decay bleef geteisterd worden door hevige ‘freezing issues’. Vandaag wordt de game voorzien van een derde update, die volgens Undead Labs het aantal freezes inperkt.

De update zal voor de meeste spelers verder geen gevolgen hebben voor hun voortzetting in de campaign. Spelers die pas net zijn begonnen, lopen kans om hun campaign opnieuw te moeten starten.

In onderstaande lijst vind je alle verbeteringen die de derde update bevat:
