PC performance info gathering thread.
Hi guys, we're hearing that some of you are having some performance issues on PC, so we'd like to gather some info. Many of you have provided great info so far, but if we can gather it in a more structured way it'll help a lot. Can you give the following information? What precisely happens for you? Where do you see this issue? If it only occurs in certain modes or regions, please list them. If you monitor your PC performance, what do you see for CPU and GPU usage? Please attach your dxdiag info. This will have critical software and hardware information. Additionally, the following info can help. If you go to the World Options (the globe at the exit to your hub), does swapping the world to Private or Private with AI change anything? If you restart with a Clean Boot and just launch the game, does that have any effect? If any graphics/options tweaks had an impact for you. Please add any other info you may find relevant. Thank you.

[Request] Unicorn Stuffy Hat on Nintendo Switch
To the relevant development team, we Nintendo Switch players would love the Unicorn Stuffy Hat in Plants Vs Zombies Battle For Neighbourville on Nintendo Switch, please, if you could make it happen, my kids would be extremely grateful and happy, the game has a huge following and so many people want it, pleaseeeeee!!![Petition] Save Battle for Neighborville! Update: 5000 Signatures!
We did it, ladies and gentlemen! We reached 5000 signatures! Zero's video: https://youtu.be/dFACXan0d-E Redhead's video and live stream: https://youtu.be/mgzT-GwJK0I and https://youtu.be/LDaqTa4uo5I My ideal wishlist of what I'd like to see added into BfN before it would be cut off of its development: • Damage Fall-off • Improved AI Backfill • Returning Battle Arena to Ranked • Ability to buy Rux items with coins and/or prize bulbs • Two new plant characters (Iceberg Lettuce and Super Bean) • Two new zombie characters (Robo-Zombie and Mini Garg) • Ops Phase 3 • New game mode(s) (Taco Bandits and/or Gnome Tag) Now I know that most of this stuff is just not going to happen if we're thinking level-headedly. So at the very, very least I would be fine with: • Damage Fall-off • Iceberg Lettuce • Ops Phase 3 Big thanks to all of you. Be sure to sign the petition, share it with others, and spread the word. Discuss, make videos, make art, whatever you can. Let's keep going with the good fight! https://www.change.org/p/ea-games-keep-development-going-for-plants-vs-zombies-battle-for-neighborvilleGraveyard Variety Pack - post patch feedback
Hey all, As we've now locked the Rose/Imp feedback thread I wanted to start a new thread to gather your feedback for the new Graveyard Variety Pack content update. Please use this thread to keep everything in one place. Let us know your thoughts and suggestions once you've had a chance to get in and play after today's maintenance. Thanks, - Andy -Plants Suck
Yeah, I feel better in my heart now I've expressed my opinion about this side. It isn't even one class that sucks, it's all of them. Fix Rose Buff Sunflower Fix Chomper Buff Cactus Buff Peashooter Buff Citron Corn might just be reasonable. Even IF you did all this, zombies would still stomp all over them. To all you zombie lovers and trolls, I'd love to see you play the above classes and win boasts with them. I've seen Sunflower/Citron win boasts 2-3 times in over 200 games. Perfect balance? Nope.
Plants vs Zombies REPAIRVILLE
So I am making this post, and I am really excited to share this. A few days ago, a user on the pvz reddit shared a post which has had MASSIVE SUPPORT so I thought I would inform more of the community. Here is the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/PvZGardenWarfare/comments/gru9zl/can_we_get_this_please/ Basically it's an idea called 'Repairville' where it is designed to focus on bugs and core balancing on characters. The idea is to deplete the amount of content BFN is receiving for ONE MONTH, in order for the pvz devs to focus PRIMARILY on bug fixes and balancing. If u want to check it out pls do, we need them to listen to this. I think this is probably one of the best ideas for bfn in a long time. Firstly, because with each of these patches they are useless. Whilst some bugs are fixed (some are claimed to but aren't even) some more bugs appear, and whilst some characters become balanced (soldier), some become nerfed to the point where they are unviable (imp) and some are stupidly buffed (chomper). And I feel like with every patch bfn stays in the same position. Ideally with a patch in a game, it should develop and move on, but with these patches some things are fixed and some new problems are created. ANd I think its because the devs sometimes focus too much on skins and content, rather than PROPER balancing and BUG FIXES. Now, content keeps the game alive. But, essentially what is happening, is we are getting layers and layers of content on a skeleton of a game that is a buggy mess with unfair balancing. This allows the dev to fix the core game itself, then it can start adding new things. I mean, this June prize map for example, will probably only be cosmetics so why can't this be a thing? I feel it would help the game significantly. Also, with every patch the devs should create a list of balance notes in the first two weeks of each month, and then ask the community on discord, on these forums, on twitter and all other platforms for our advice. So then we can see these notes, put our opinions out before they go into the game. Also with each patch notes, I would like some dev notes where they explain why they did these certain things so we can understand and challenge them. I think this seems reasonable. And I understand during this time it can be hard, but even before the pandemic the devs still weren't this hands-on (apart from the first few weeks of founders) e.g. the 'ask-devs' channel on bfn discord is dead, we aren't being told anything. I feel this needs to be addressed soon.[UPDATE] PVZ GW2 PC Matchmaking Error in Asian server and NA West
Players are encountering matchmaking issues in Asian and NA West servers that started about a week ago. Most of the time, when matchmaking in these servers, the game shows a lobby is found, however, players cannot connect to the server and join the lobby. In rare cases, the players get in an empty lobby and nobody else can find the lobby. Hundreds of people have encountered this issue and asked what happened in the comment section of my videos, in chat and in my social media chat groups that contain thousands of people. This issue also happened about one year ago, when two cheaters were crashing lobbies all day and the entire online multiplayer server in all regions was disabled. The MP servers were down for weeks and months until EA rebooted the server and fixed the particular incident. The same server issue is happening right now and is likely caused by only one cheater who has admitted that he was crashing the server around the time this issue started. The cheating in PC GW2 has been getting worse since the anticheat update, and cheaters need to be banned. I DMed @EA_Shepard and sent the ID of this particular cheater, the server issue did not happen by the time though but just a precaution. I am not sure if my DM was missed or something because it was not replied to. To conclude the current situation, the matchmaking issue that started around a week or so ago is affecting hundreds of players every single day and was likely caused by a single cheater. The game is still in a state where one cheater is sufficient to cause systematic server issues at no cost. Someone said that the EAAC is just a PR stunt and I hope it is not.
