@eieio_31310WOW,what profile of yours has 30M coins?

@HenryThePear  The one the inland revenue and mrs eieio don't know about.

shh, not too loud, she could spend my hard earn coins in less than a few purchasing sessions. 👿

Could not resist so I brought it and gave it a try. 

Maybe I am not using it right but have to say it is fun to see imps and shrunken zombies being blown away....  👿

Edit.  I have to use Enforce-mint to do the shrinking as shrinking violet is nerfed in this tournament.

It looks like we can decorate our lawn with BALLOONS soon! I can't wait 🙂 I'll definitely go for a lawn full of colorfull ballons!

@FantastiXxPVZyou have update 8.8.1 already?

I usually get the Soft Release, I don't know why. I also had the Pre-Alpha and Soft Launch of PvZ3 available to me and I didn't live in the 3 release regions. 🤷‍♂️

Maybe that is the way EA treats you for being the most loyal customer.. 👿

Looks like the update is out for iOS users (at least for me).

Thanks for the heads up, I have just checked and me too have this update appearing on my App Store. Now the question is, has any one tried this new version?  If so, are there any side effects?

I haven't updated yet. I'll wait until Haem posts the update notes. I wonder what the "new player tutorial improvements" are. Might have to play through the game again on one of my unused profiles.

I don't notice anything, but the new plants in the Almanac.

What ballunacy is this- those ballunatic devs have given us a new plant.

The new boom balloon flower quest is in the store, I'm not wildly enthusiastic about it but it does have a few good points.

*:It's a tap to fire.

It only explodes on one tile.

Pros: it can plant exploding balloons on mold.

It can plant up to three balloons on the same tile, presumably doing 3x damage.

It has an insane plantfood effect well worth buying a plantfood for, i won't ruin the surprise.

This is the first time I have seen the sun cost increases as the plant is leveled up from 3 to 4, 5 to 6, and from 7 to 8.

I think this is an mistake.

@eieio_31310  i saw it posted on reddit and have tagged haem to check on it.

Levels 4 and 8 can't be right.

The errors are actually on level 4, 6 and 8.  The first digit should have been a '2' and NOT a '3'.

This was either cut and paste error or mistypes but normally I would expect this to be picked up by QA when doing the checks/proof reads.  I guess EA is doing a $$$ saving exercise by using us the players, to do their QA work instead.

Apparently it has been fixed.

@Perfume-shroom92 

I used hot cross buns and a cup of tea as part of the dev summoning ritual.

I have just seen a post from Euphoric-SeeWeeeed over on subreddit that the sun cost for BBF has been correct with yesterday's data push.

Is it worth upgrading Draftodil?

I'm currently at level 5 and Draftodil seeds are still in the store for a few days and I'm probably going to take it to L7 (50x sun), but is it worth spending the extra sparkly gems?

🏵?🏵?🏵?🏵

@MAGICDAVESHROOM   If you have the gems to spare then why not?

The benefits are below

•  Recharge is dropped from 3.5 to 3.0 seconds.
•  Toughness (more chewy) increased from 600dps to 900 dps
•  Damage (dps) increased from 90 to 150.  (215 to 255 with plant food)
•  Chance of blowing small zombies away increased from 85% to 100%.
•  Stun duration increased from 0.95 to 1.25 seconds  (4.4 to 5.0 second with plant food)
•  Air Cannon shots (under plant food effect) increased from 8 to 10

Of all the improvements listed above, I think the 100% chance of blowing the imps/chickens/weasels/shrunken zombies away ( I marked it out in bold) is useful for Arena mode if you do plan to use it.
