Content Change Proposal
Hello Plants vs. Zombies 2 development team, I am a player since the "It's About Time" era of PVZ2. I have finally completed the entirety of the main game on the newest update as of 06/23/2025, and would like to propose changes to the following content:
- Less advertisements in general.
The Chinese version doesn't bombard you with advertisements throughout the game, just when you load into said game from the main login screen. The popup of in-game-related advertisements (i.e. new plant: x) can no longer happen since you would already see it in the login screen, and general advertisements should no longer happen every time a level gets completed, because they are annoying to where I disable WiFi for the entirety of the world. - Removing/Improvising real-money microtransactions for plant purchases.
I'm sure EA already has a lot of ad revenue and overall other income sources profitable, but of course the business is not mine. If microtransactions stay, then I hope that non-gem premium plant purchases (i.e. Snow Pea) are able to be bought with, say, 200 or more gems to match the price of shop gems. - Bringing back the removed audios.
I and most other people loved the audios that were there for the demonstrations and ultimates (like Ancient Egypt's matching game, Pirate Seas' Massive Attack & Event levels, etc.). I have only heard that they were removed to save up space, but it doesn't make sense when a lot of plants were added that "don't serve a purpose" (those aren't my words). The audios can come back as a content addition from the content fetching process (i.e. when patching/gathering content from the EA servers as part of the update, not from within the APK/IPA packages). - Reverting to world sorting by progression + option of sorting by difficulty.
Right now, worlds are organized by difficulty, rather than by progression. The Dr. Zomboss dialogues at the final levels don't sit well with the difficulty-sorted worlds, leading to inconsistency with how events are to play out. What can happen is that the progression organization can be put back by default, but to also include an option or toggle to sort by difficulty.
I took inspiration from this post (Copy-paste the URL to the browser if needed: https://forums.ea.com/discussions/plants-vs-zombies-2-en/dear-development-team-of-plants-vs-zombies-2-international-version/12234698).
Slightly off-topic but a buddy of mine has applied to PopCap as a Junior Software Developer Intern for a 4-month term to hopefully work on PVZ3. Perhaps he could work on PVZ2 at the same time and hopefully bring those changes to life.
Thank you for reading!
