EA Staff (Retired)First couple of matches of TT after the TTK decrease and initial impressions are... Great!
Game is so much more action packed. Rose is a killing machine (early prediction she may need to be nerfed in future... Never thought I'd say that!!).
Still need to work my way through more characters to try them out but so far so good and kudos to the Devs for braving such a major change to the gameplay. Once more this game puts a smile on my face 😀

Nobody talking about the OP all-star here? Wow I’m amazed. The dude isn’t defensive anymore but an overpowered rambo on brainz!
Got killed so fast and so many times and ppl know he’s OP now so half the teams are him... tried playing with him with while I never touched him in the time I’ve been playing and rekt multiple ppl on my own with him...
I haven't posted on this yet as I want more play time before I can judge but from what I've seen, you're correct.
My initial impressions is that All-Star, Scientist, Electric Slide, and Space Station are too good. Rose may be as well, but Sunflower feels too weak (maybe because Scientist is too good). There may be others that need to go up or down but this is what I've seen since the patch. Damage dropoff for certain classes may need to be looked at too.
And please note, I'm not saying my list is absolute or perfect, my data sample is too small, but this is what I've seen so far.
Allstar primary could come down a bit, doing 8-10 now probably should be 7-9 or 7-8 his tackle delay should be shorter.
As for rest of the ttk update I've seen groups electric slide, groups of space cadet, groups of allstar, as I posted in another thread, team based pvp with variety of different characters needs team composition, anyone who has played previous garden warfare, overwatch, team fortress 2 etc would know that.
Good team composition specially after ttk and team work will always win the day over a team all using what they think is the op character of the month.
Seen it several times just in last 2 days.
Also sunflower think she needs a slight buff to her attack speed now, they buffed damage but her projectiles are so slow.

Loke I said I never played with the dude in this installment, so I had no abilities. His main weapon shreds ppl like a horde of zombies shreds 6 humans all defending themselves with their hands (I should stop with the zombie analogies XD). So for that reason I hardly even use his abilities. But even without it, cropping those plants is an easy task. And to be extra clear, I have aim assist off. When I’m on the plant team and get killed by him, I can just feel who have aim assist on...
in another thread I talked about how sunflower was one of my mains... now I can’t do anything with her. Even 1v1 with most zombies I lose whereas at first I could 1v2 most zombies. So yea, her buffs weren’t worthwhile, at least for me. The additional heal is good, but when you heal and someone or 2 zombies start shooting at you, you know you won’t get past 36hp healed before you’re in the ground again...
@PineapplePiano have you played since the beginning? At first NC was ‘too powerful’ (mostly because ppl couldn’t handle her and complained) so they nerfed her greatly. Almost everything about her was nerfed. Now they upgraded her primary to 17.5 or something from the 10/12 it was. So now at least she feels competitive again. It’s good she got buffed again but I feel ppl will start complaining about her again... hopefully they won’t tho...
@Koochi-Q Yeah I have but I haven't really been paying attention to the patches until now. Sorry about that misunderstanding
