Pvz2 tutorial progression bug (not fixed but has temp workaround)
(this is a bug that I have directly reported to the team )
So this is an obscure progression based bug where it seems to trigger if
- you have filtered plants(i.e like favourites) in a way where the default peashooter isn't visible in your almanac
- the above is done BEFORE the level up peashooter tutorial trigger
When this criteria is met, Dave will force you to go into the almanac to upgrade peashooter when it's available, but due to the inability to do it , you'd think to leave(can't due to tutorial text prompts) or/& adjust the filter
If you click filter you try to leave or do something else, the game will close (likely due to it recognising a lock/ loop in progression where you must level up peashooter but you can't due to filter)
While this would be great to be fixed in the game, I've spent a little bit of time finding a work around in order to break out of progression lock
- so the bug still needs fixing but below is a way for a player in this bug to get out of the loop
You reboot the game & go to an event or level ASAP , (as sometimes it won't immediately try to force you to level up plant)
When you're in the plant choosing section, you can find & level up peashooter, affectively completing the task & breaking out.
-note on work around
I have yet to see if this is a permanent fix , as there may be a chance when peashooter is next 'upgradeable' it'll pop up again as for the tutorial. This fornow I'd reccomend 'favouriting' default peashooter & staying on filters that include it
