New Version 11.1.1 Breaks "Locked and Loaded" Game Levels

As the title says. Be wary of installing version 11.1.1 of the game as it breaks "Locked and Loaded" levels (where all your plants are chosen for you) of the game.

As has been reported a few times on the r/PlantsVsZombies Reddit sub (and a Discord that I'm a member of), In version 11.1.1 of the game, all plant levels of Locked and Loaded games are set to "L1" regardless of what level you have that plant at in your own almanac.  This can make certain levels (e.g. The 1st level in the current Penny's Pursuit and Levels 1 and 7 in the Ancient Egypt Entanglement epic quest) very difficult to finish.  Some may see this as a challenge, but most probably won't enjoy the experience.

So now we've got a tough choice between 2 buggy versions of the game:

  • 11.0 with many BWB levels having Low Tide Spawn events crashing the game
  • 11.1 with all Locked and Loaded levels setting all plants to L1 in Adventure, Penny's Pursuit and many quests.

  • Thanks for sharing the new findings, guess for us to get the best out of the two releases, the option is to play the game on two devices, keeping one at 11.0.1 and one with 11.1.1.👿

    I could not see any difference on my level 1 profiles.....  😅

    Joking apart, I hope they are working on a fix for this as there will be players feeling being cheated by EA/PopCap for wasting they $$$, time and effort on leveling up their plants. 

  • The explode-o-nut is on a level 1on the 2nd level of the plant of the week quest.

    I'm having the same issues. I'm not sure how to update to certain versions of the game, it did so automatically after the BWB crash. Now Locked and Loaded levels are making me want to take a hiatus.
