Ideas for new veteran zombies for a future Lost City expansion.
Dear PopCap and Electronic Arts team:
I hope you are doing well. I would like to share some design concepts with you regarding potential new zombies for a future *Plants vs. Zombies 2* expansion set in the Lost City.
I want to clarify that these designs and ideas are not my own creations. I came across them previously and found them to be very interesting concepts, so I decided to share them so the community could see and discuss them.
I believe these concepts would fit the Lost City theme very well, and it would be interesting to see something inspired by them in a future update.
The new Veteran Flag Zombie and the new Veteran Zombie brickhead the lost city will possess the same abilities as the other veteran zombies already in the game.
As for the new veteran zombie (an enhanced version of the Lost City's Turquoise Skull Zombie), it will be called the Cursed Archaeologist Zombie and will feature the following abilities:
Ability 1: Shield Charge and Zombie Speed Boost. Upon stopping, it raises its red skull to generate a frontal energy shield that protects it from ranged projectile damage; simultaneously, it emits a pulse that grants a 20% speed boost to all zombies on the map.
Ability 2: Triple Beam Shot. After completing its charge, it fires three laser beams (in its own lane and the two adjacent ones) to destroy frontline defenses.
Special: Upon defeat, its skull falls to the ground and emits energy pulses, granting a speed boost and a mini-shield to nearby zombies within a 3x3 radius.
I hope these ideas prove interesting and serve as inspiration for the future of Plants vs. Zombies 2.
