Everytime i ever play nowadays I just keep thinking "I could be playing a more refined version of the same game in gw". Seriously how do you make a game that go backs on several basic features from gw1 back in 2014 like the awful changes to base capturing and Suburbination bases or the absolutely sluggish ttk compared to gw.
Even the environments feel weak as I explained in aesthetic post and the even bigger push to cartoony designs by the series (yeah its always been cartoonish but bfn and 3 just feels flanderized at points, especially with how much they try and inject more bits of humor into it).
One thing I liked about BFN is when you destroy objects such as crates or cars, it yields coins. Overall, I wasn't too fond of the game not including what makes the game fun. Right now, I'm done with PvZ shooters and I've been over EA itself since Battlefront 2 launched.
- stukapooka3 years agoLegend@MrGamer8000 Apparently bfn was originally suppose to just be a pve game but over time they mustve slapped the pvp onto it. It really sticks out with the maps being reused pve assets and a clear sign of where the budget went.

I've mostly been playing GW2 as it has more to do solo than GW, and I hit max level in BfN, and already had all the achievements and 100% free roam regions done. There isn't much of an incentive to go back there as the multiplayer maps aren't as fun as the GW games, and the Ops are nowhere near as good as they were in the GW games either.
While I'm happy that we can still play all 3 games, we really need a new PvZ shooter as the current ones have been in maintenance mode for years now. The lack of any evidence of a sequel is depressing at this stage since PvZ3 is still in an iffy state, and it's the only actively developed PvZ game I can think of (PvZ2 is still up and running and doing well, but it's been out for a long time now). There are still a lot of people that play the current shooters, but a new one would be best, and the sooner the better so we don't lose more people; although don't release it in the same state that BfN was in during Founders, as that's part of why it didn't do so well.
- stukapooka3 years agoLegend@Iron_Guard8 The state of the franchise is in a really shaky state right now. At this point they should just hand the games over to the community if their not gonna even work on them to fix issues like the gw2 turf matchmaking or the absolutely abysmal mystery portal rotation.
I don't care if a new game gets made tomorrow or ten years from now as all i want is for popcap to actually talk to us rather than just announce a pvz 2 plant every full moon.
Waiting is imo the worst thing popcap can do as the fanbase will just move on the longer they wait to do anything much like they did when bfn had nothing interesting going on for a whole back when it did get updates.
Bfn ops is just really painful. Gw1 despite its lack of content compared to gw2 still had a lot of fun put into like the gimmick waves like "they hunger" where zombies would just wear all food cosmetics. Soldiers took to the rooftops to attack way more than the other games. The zombie classes even taunted you before unleashing attacks like all star giving a thumbs up than launching an imp your way, The infinitely better garden design that I mentioned in a post only like one person read lol.
