Top 10 Game Mods for Escape from Duckov, Ranked
The vanilla experience lacks critical information, making basic tasks such as inventory management and quest tracking more complicated. This guide covers the 10 of the most most important Escape from Duckov mods that will enhance your gameplay, save you time, and help you actually enjoy playing this unforgiving game.
10. Co-op Mod - Play With Friends
- Steam Workshop Rating: 3.8/5
- Current Subscribers: 138,614
- Installation Difficulty: Hard
Duckov is a purely single-player experience, but that hasn’t stopped modders from trying to add co-op modes. The lack of a dedicated co-op mode is kind of unfortunate, more so when you consider that extraction games are a lot more fun with a partner to tag along with.
The Co-op Mod lets you play the game with a friend, but keep in mind it's currently in a very alpha state. Expect bugs and game-breaking issues in the current build.
9. Show the Cost
- Steam Workshop Rating: 5/5
- Current Subscribers: 615,715
- Installation Difficulty: Easy
As the name implies, Show the Cost lets players see the value of each item in their inventory by default. This lets you manage inventory better, and arrange items according to their real monetary value. In other words, this mod can help you pick what to keep and what to drop when scavenging out in the wild.
8. Display Match Total and Duration
- Steam Workshop Rating: 4/5
- Current Subscribers: 393,115
- Installation Difficulty: Easy
By default, Escape from Duckov shows a rather limited progression tracker at the end of each run, displaying the EXP earned, and the name of the NPC who managed to kill you (assuming you died in that run).
This rather simple mod lets you view the total points earned in a single run, along with the time spent clearing it. Display Match Total and Duration is a nice way to keep track of your progression speed, and views some extra stats that make each run feel a lot more rewarding.
7. Display Cash With Money
- Steam Workshop Rating: 5/5
- Current Subscribers: 238,619
- Installation Difficulty: Easy
Escape from Duckov doesn’t do a very good job at explaining some basic aspects, like how much money you are working with. In fact, both money and cash appear separately for some reason, forcing players to take an extra step when pulling up their inventories.
Display Cash with Money is a very simple mod that combines the two available currencies into one header, making things a lot more streamlined.
6. Show Inventory Count
- Steam Workshop Rating: 5/5
- Current Subscribers: 222,924
- Installation Difficulty: Easy
Another rather simple mod that aims to make managing your inventory a bit less of a headache. Installing it is very straightforward and brings up the inventory count of certain items on both your character and in-game storage, helping you sort items faster. The mod uses machine translation at present, so some text may appear wonky.
5. Live Boss Map Markers
- Steam Workshop Rating: 5/5
- Current Subscribers: 379,870
- Installation Difficulty: Easy
Escape from Duckov features a handful of bosses to face up against, which are unmarked by default in the game. The Live Boss Map Markers mod simply marks their locations on the in-game map, which makes hunting (or even avoiding) bosses a whole lot easier.
4. Item Value Rarity Display & Search Sounds
- Steam Workshop Rating: 5/5
- Current Subscribers: 592,010
- Installation Difficulty: Easy
The default looting experience in Escape from Duckov is a bit bland. Item Value Rarity & Search Sounds aims to shake things up a little, and adds in a rarity counter to loot, depending on their value. It’s also possible to add custom search sounds as well. All of this makes the game feel a lot more interactive, and can in a way, enhance your gameplay. Having color sorted loot makes everything appear far more appealing.
3. Slow Motion (Bullet Time)
- Steam Workshop Rating: N/A
- Current Subscribers: 139
- Installation Difficulty: Easy
Ever wanted to feel like Neo from the Matrix? This mod is a perfect little addition due to this intriguing mechanic, and can be easily enabled or disabled by pressing Z on your keyboard.This fun little mod slows down the game to about 20% of its actual speed, allowing players to enter ‘bullet time’ and defeat enemies with slow-motion scenarios. Slow Motion (Bullet Time) can be considered to be a way to enable ‘easy mode’.
2. Fishing Mod
- Steam Workshop Rating: 5/5
- Current Subscribers: 104,430
- Installation Difficulty: Easy
Another very transformative mod, the Fishing mod automatically completes the process for you, with a 100% success rate.
If you're not a fan of fishing mini-games in other games, then this mod will make your life easier. The fishing process in this game feels a lot more convoluted and far less rewarding, and it might be worth skipping the chore entirely in this case.
1. Quest Tracker
- Steam Workshop Rating: 5/5
- Current Subscribers: 54,131
- Installation Difficulty: Medium
By default, it's very difficult to track many of your quests in the game. Quest Tracker aims to change that, offering a pop-up window that tracks your overall progress and what you still need to do. You will need to bring up the Tab menu to track your quests. The window can also be hidden if needed, offering total immersion. The mod also is very configurable, letting you select what quests to display.
