Re: Introduce Yourselves to the Neighborville!

Hello, Shepard!

This one’s gonna be a doozy, but thank you for keeping in touch. The silence has been deafening lately, so your communication is much appreciated by the community. I’ve been a long-time PvZ fan ever since I was a kid. Never missed a release day. To this day, this franchise continues to hold a special place in my heart and it’s inspired me to become an artist.

I mean, I got an Xbox One just to play Garden Warfare when it first released.
I’ve always preferred zombies. Not just in the shooters, but in general. They have so much personality and I love seeing their different designs and gimmicks.
Speaking of design, Seeds of Time is hands down my favorite map in the entire shooter franchise. A theme park based on time travel sounds like something straight out of my dreams. It’s even better when you’ve got plants and zombies attached to it!

I also do a bit of collecting. I’ve got just about every PvZ Funko POP! excluding the basic zombie and peashooter. I’ve also got the Z7 Mech Statue and Dancing Sunflower toy. I could go on and on. Really wish I could get my hands on more merch but nothing has been coming out lately 😛

With all that being said, I know you’re looking for feedback and I’ve got some words to share.

First and foremost, is a change to GW2’s Mystery Portal rotation a possibility? Ever since 2019, the rotation has been the same and it’s gotten very stale over the years. The current modes aren’t very popular amongst players and there is much of a desire to earn achievements for Cats Vs Dinos and Boss Hunt. Can’t forget Capture the Taco and Soil Survivors either. Maybe even Community Challenges?

Second, will Rux ever see a change to his shop rotation as well? He once offered exclusive items like PvZ Heroes hats and Torchwood/Hover-Goat costumes, but now they’re gone. I can’t remember the last time I was offered legendary pots/bots either. It’s a bummer that most people have missed out on these cool items that were available for such a short amount of time. Especially the costumes.

Third, would bug fixes be out of the question? These are minor issues, but Garden Warfare 2 has some audio issues regarding Super Boss Waves and Turf Takeover maps like Great White North, Seeds of Time, and Wall Nut Hills. Despite bosses having their own music tracks for super boss waves, they never play. The same can be said for Great White North and Seeds of Time when the zombies are capturing the objective. There are 4 different zombie tracks for each objective, but the same one plays each time. And for Wall Nut Hills, the map reuses Seeds of Time music instead of the traditional Garden Warfare tracks. Again, very minor issues but I was wondering if they’d have a chance of being addressed. This game has wonderful music and it adds so much to the experience. I’d hate for these tracks to remain unused.

I’m not expecting any of these to become a reality, but I just thought I’d give my two cents. I appreciate you giving us the chance to do that.
