Re: Googleplay not working with pvz2

This happened to me today. And I'm not sure if I can sync to google play anymore 😢

After this appeared, nothing happened when I tap on the google play games button in the start page. Usually you'll see it expand to menus including achievements and player ranking. Now I'm afraid it's not even syncing.

I've never really relied on EA cloud syncing, especially after someone said that force-syncing through the cloud button can lead to progress lost.

Can only rely on automatic syncing right now.

EDIT: Haem replied to my message in the pvz subreddit. No news for now, but good to know they've been aware of the problems and plan to investigate in the near future.

Haha, sorry if I said it wrong (not English native), but I said that in place of forgetting what Haem said which is soon, but not immediately either 😃. She confirmed in PM that it'll be tomorrow, though, since the time they found out about this was the end of the day in the office (or something like that).

@ForestOutlook I haven't press the forced sync button ever since that post but i still check to make sure the EA cloud is sync. For some strange reason, the one on my bluestacks isn't working at all, whereas the one on my phone will have that pop up but at the background i can still see the 'progress saved to play games' coming up...so at least its still something...

seems like something is going wrong with the google play services. I got that problem in my PC as well.

Yeah, that's what happened with my phone too. It says progress is saved when starting the game, but I have my doubt since the service seems to no longer working after the pop up message appeared. I think it shows that there's an attempt by google to save the progress when opening the game, but whether it is successful in saving the progress, or somehow prevented as the message appears (despite what it says in the background), I'm not quite sure. But I tend to overthink things, lol. Hopefully it's just some irrelevant pop up message and the progress is saved as usual.
