Meagher valley is my favourite by far, I love the bright greens, the sky seems brighter to me, the map just has much more hopeful vibes to me. And the brewery is my fave home site, the thought of survivors running a brewery making booze and selling it to EVERYONE for massive influence is just so funny to me

lol I do like the brighter maps, its different than the apocalyptic setting that most games try and use. The dark and everything destroyed kinda setting. I think there is a middle ground that some maps do well, Meagher being one of them, the nights are dark and scary and the days are bright and hopeful. Also yea survivors selling beer in the apocalypse is actually hilarious and would be REAL!!! 🤣🤣🤣🍺

To be honest ranking hills so low is hurting. Since i dont play on full boat (less than 8 members on purpose) i usually tend to get either Corner Office (simple reason - localisation, you are close to every place to unload), or Mohr&Mohr, which is conveniently not so far from the middle. Map is fairly easy to remember, just navigate through 2 major crossroads.

Yea I agree! Cascade isn't that bad. I think I mentioned that I do love all the maps. I also agree that corner office is a really good base!! It does seem to be very busy with zombies though(more than other bases) so you have that constant threat. I do agree that the map is easy to remember. My biggest issue with Cascade is this, no memorable bases(container fort is broken), and it has my least favorite landmark outpost, the map is FAR to spread out, the only real base I like is the bridge fort. This isn't to say the map is bad but the other maps have positives where I struggled to find positives about this map. Thanks for your comment though! I do appreciate insight into how others view things and how they play in this amazing game!!

@@brandondunbar5742 im trying to not use the map, mostly memorize the neighbourhood im heading to. Yeah other maps tend to have great perks tho. Drucker is great for complex outpost network where you are always close to an outpost. Although i consider drucker larger than cascade- the rocks making areas impassable are stretching up areas like Kettle and mountain route to the city, giving false impression of close distances. Keep up the good work, good to know my favourite game is still alive :D

Which gate are you referring too? the gate to go to another map? I can release a short tomorrow showing this. Whenever you leave a map you have the option of which map it goes too. So it doesnt matter which gate you use to leave the map.

Cascade hills is the only map I dislike. From the aesthetics to the layout and finally to the bases, it just has nothing intriguing for me. Love the look and customisation options of the container fort though! So, that would be my 5th, followed by meagher valley at 4th. Idk this map just feels a bit boring to me. I kinda like the grassy feel of the map and appreciate the flat terrain but it’s just still meh to me. Bases aren’t amazing either imo in terms of immersion (they are strong) but I think mazzara farm is nice. 3rd would be Trumbull for me. I dislike the aesthetic of the map like cascade hills but it has so much more to offer, from the extra quest lines, abundance of loot, and cool bases. Perhaps I’ve overplayed it though because I used to start on that map a lot when making newer communities. 2nd for me is providence ridge. Gorgeous map and aesthetics as well as amazing bases all around. Played on it many times and it just feels so immersive to me for some reason lol. Only downside is that sometimes the time spent driving can be excessive but it’s not a big deal. IMO, drucker county is the best map. It’s just good all around. Fun bases, great looking map, good loot and idk it just feels great. It’s nice and spacious too. The fact that it’s mountainous used to annoy me but I’ve grown to love it. I can never get bored of the map! Strip mall and Prescott fire station are my favourite bases! They feel immersive whilst also being very good in general.

Trumbull my favorite I think because I’d ideally be a farmer community in this situation my favorite 4 man base on the map as well. The Cleo and sniper support are cool as well. I think they try to push Trumbull for long term community Casecade hills second bridge fort and container fort really cool ideas for a zombie situation. Container fort also having 8 built in beds feels like a no penalty compact bunkers beds Meager valley 3rd bases not my favorite visually. Travel is awesome though easy crossing. Drucker is decent but the driving feels like it’s intentionally forcing you to drive the long way at times. Providence Ridge last I’ve never finished a storyline here I just end up switching maps because I hate driving this map. Visually awesome map but driving is so bad I just don’t stay. Based are also not the best.

You are fucking awesome. You master this game to another level. My map tier list: 1: Cascade hills. Bridge and container fort, the important landmark outpost, easy to drive around. 2: Trumbull, there is a red talon agent to recruit, nice landmark and funny based. A lot of story 3:Drucker, I just replayed this map and I got a nice experience. 4 providence: toturial map, played to much, but it has a special place in my heart 5 meager. Whitney field is awesome, lame land map. Least favorite map

I 100% agree. I'm not sure they will release anymore maps for SOD2. I'm also not sure they are going to do maps the same in SOD3. I would love to see one GIANT map(Red Dead Redemption 2, gta, AC Valhiem, etc) and those maps split into different regions, instead of separate maps. They could be themed differently, Snow, plague(trumbull valley downtown area). Just a thought!

Good video buddy ..I have tried 2 plays on trumbull on my xbox series x . And EVERY TIME on day 9 my game crashes every single time I log in after about 8-10 seconds . I tried literally everything. Restarting /un plugging / uninstalling the game and re installing . Then I tried deleting other bigger games to clear space and NOTHING WORKED . I officially can't play trumbull at all and that really sucks
