All the Curveballs in State of Decay 2 - Explained as Quickly as Possible

One thing to note about the Broken Heart is that it gets immediately awakened, if you let the event go by without destroying it, it will remain awakened. So if you get the event it's best you take advantage from it as soon as possible.

Fueling the Plague is one of my favorite Curveballs. Just constant chaos. I got it with the more Toxic Bloaters in one game, and it was crazy. Not even Juggs could survive that combo. The zoms would line up at the edge of my base for a Siege, and as soon as one purple zom died, the whole wave went out like a string of Firecrackers. On the other hand, I got Heightened Senses with Strange Mutation in one game, and the area they overlapped was hell. It was absolutely a 'no go zone'. They had better hearing, sight, and smell, plus they dropped lures when they died to bring in more zoms, and they had Headless so they kept fighting until they bled out. Awesome vid, I imagine it took quite a while to get footage of every Curveball with how random they are.

Thank you for the updated list! Fueling the plague is a blessing in disguise since it's a high risk, high reward way to efficiently destroy all the plague hearts in an area.

Hi. Thank you so much for your reviews and your hard work!🤝

I like the curveballs and the variations and mixups they add to the gameplay. My one dislike is not being able to turn them off and on individually. Some of the curveballs are massively out of scale with the others. Black Plague Heart is very very potentially a full wipe, for example. Whereas most of the others are more of gameplay mixups, BPH is a completely dominating new questline essentially that must be dealt with immediately to the detriment of every other concern (and it still can easily wipe you). I'd like to be able to select which curveballs you're exposed to individually. Or at least have two classes of them with the bigger, more extensive ones with a separate ability to turn off/on when you don't feel like having to deal with them in any particular playthrough.

Thank you for high quality SoD content!

I prefer hearing Rvid’s actual voice, it feels more authentic and is what I’m used to from way back when I was confused at first when I heard someone else speaking during some of his other longer videos After revisiting older videos I was appalled and infuriated at the amount of comments I saw making fun of his accent Keep up the hard work Rvid! Don’t let them get you down🙌👑

Getting "fueling the plague" on lethal zone is nutty in my experience, especially if you aren't in a good state to deal with it early on. You end up with a HUGE area of the map where it's almost su1c1d3 to drive a car, and fighting the heart itself is a complete death trap if it's in a small building.

Thank you for this fast and simple explanation

This looks like so much work! How do you know this is all of them? Outstanding video!

its great that they are still supporting the game but it would be nice if they gave those types of things as options used to play this game to chill out and mess around cant even do that anymore

Bullet benefactor can be way more useful than it first appears. The exact effects vary, but you can get a supply drop of weapons or ammo and you can also get additional weapons, ammo or consumables from containers. For some reason you always seem to get two of the same item: I've gotten 2*custom AK, 2*spec ops AW, 2*thermite grenade, 2*pentamezin. I'm fairly certain "higher chance to find X" means items are added to two containers in the area, whether they have already been searched or not, and the extra items disappear if not collected in time. I just got 2 AKs from containers even though the description says "higher chance to find ammo".

Great list, concise as always...However... Just one thing RvidD. I played a couple of months ago and got the "Radio Silence" effect right in the middle of a 4 heart cluster so I couldn't do anything about it (Lethal, fresh start). I shrugged and carried on plying planing to attack the area when I could, but the curve ball ended before I did anything. The hearts where still there (and asleep) and I never visited the tower. I don't know if this has changed in an update as my gaming computer's SSHD broke and I'm having to replace it so I can't test/use it right now.

Black plague heart event is a very fun event. I hope it appear more frequently

Please guys let support this channel it have the best tips for SoD2 let share and 👍👍👍👍 i learn so much on this channel
