How To Increase Morale In State Of Decay 2

One of the things you have to worry about outside of zombies in State of Decay 2 is your community’s morale. At the start of the game, your morale will be pretty low and there are a few ways to fix that. Check out this guide to find out how to increase more in State of Decay 2.

How To Increase Morale In State Of Decay 2

Have Enough Beds

This one is pretty simple but it is something you can easily forget about when recruiting NPCs. If you don’t have enough beds then don’t recruit anymore characters. Even missing one bed is enough to lower the morale of some of your characters. This will lead to fights and lead to injuries which will make it harder to use those characters again.

Morale Outposts

There are a few outposts you can take that will increase your Morale back in base. One of these is the Espresso building that will provide you with extra morale and espresso back at the base. The others are factories that provide power or water to your base but these will take fuel and other resources to run. Getting running water or electricity at your home base will raise morale.

Keep Supplies High

Your citizens will use up food and meds pretty regularly but certain buildings take other resources to maintain. If you don’t have enough resources to keep the buildings up and running your people will let you know. If you let it get to low they will start losing moral and it might even become a mission to calm a person down. This normally involves bringing back a resource bag and they will be smug and smart about it. Keep the supplies high and you won’t have to worry about it.

Mods And Buildings

Certain mods can be used to increase morale back at base. Things like a heater or gaming consoles can provide extra morale if you have power to the mods. There are also buildings that can raise morale such as the lounge or even certain beds. You have to pick and choose which ones you want since you cannot have them all but one should be enough to help out with morale problems. If you are lucky enough you can find a base with a morale boost building and you can just use that.
