Dear Development Team of Plants vs. Zombies International Version:
The following is an AI translation due to my limited English proficiency; some inaccuracies may exist.As a loyal Chinese player, I have had a lot of fun while playing the game. At the same time, I have also found some areas that can be optimized, and I hope to contribute my ideas to the further improvement of the game.
【We really, really need these optimizations! It should be appropriately centered on users. Thank you very much for taking the time to read my feedback. I look forward to continuous improvements in the future to bring a more excellent experience to users. Thank you!】
Bugs that need priority handling
- In Plants vs. Zombies 1 HD for iPadOS, the game crashes and fails to launch when entering while connected to the internet. You must first disconnect from the network to enter the game, then reconnect to the internet to play.
- In Plants vs. Zombies 1 HD for iPadOS, some achievement data unlocked under a stable network connection will not automatically sync to Apple's servers, resulting in incomplete achievement data for the game displayed in Apple Game Center. Even if you create a new game account, connect to a stable network, and replay to unlock the missing achievements, the data still fails to sync to Apple's servers. I have contacted Apple customer service, but they were unable to resolve the issue and suggested that I contact the relevant developer. Therefore, I believe this is a problem with the software itself, not with Apple.
- In the Android & iOS versions of Plants vs. Zombies 1, there may be problems such as stuttering, frame drops, or missing music and sound effects after watching ads.
I. System Adaptation and Interface Optimization
- New Perspective Options
It is recommended to provide three visual effect options for all game interfaces: "Ultra-high Perspective", "High Perspective", and "Low Perspective". Different players have different needs for the display of game screens: the high perspective allows players to obtain more comprehensive battlefield information, while the low perspective may focus more on local battles, meeting different strategic planning and visual preferences.
- Multi-language Adaptation
Currently, there are a large number of players from different countries and regions in the international version, especially a huge Chinese player group. To meet the needs of global players, it is recommended to add support for multiple languages, such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Hindi, Malay, etc. This can not only eliminate language barriers, enable players to better understand the game content and instructions, but also significantly enhance the game's attractiveness and competitiveness in the international market and promote the globalization development of the game.
- Suggestions on Promoting the Ecological Layout of the Whole Platform
Currently, the Huawei HarmonyOS Next system has enormous market potential. It is recommended to prioritize the in-depth adaptation of products to the mobile and PC ends of this system. At the same time, a cross-platform cloud data interconnection system should be constructed to comprehensively cover mainstream operating systems and devices such as Apple (iOS, iPadOS, macOS, visionOS, tvOS), Huawei (HarmonyOS),Google (Android, Android TV), and Microsoft (Windows x86, Windows x64, Windows Arm). By achieving real-time synchronization of data such as game progress, saves, and personalized settings, the barriers to device switching can be eliminated, creating a seamless gaming experience for users, and further improving user retention rate and brand competitiveness.
II. Visual Effect Optimization
- Solve the Problem of Darkened Color When Shadows Overlap
When the shadows of multiple zombies or plants overlap, the color of the shadows will be darkened, which affects the beauty and visual effect of the game screen. It is recommended to fix this problem so that the shadows maintain a normal color display when overlapping, making the game screen clearer and more natural, and presenting a better visual experience for players.
- Handling of Obstacles After Level Victory
When the level is won, all obstacles, such as tombstones, arcade game machines, ice blocks, etc., should automatically break and disappear. This can make the game interface cleaner, highlight the players' sense of achievement after victory, and also make more clear preparations for the next game, improving the players' gaming experience and feelings.
