Let's discuss the new Ops mode and the changes that have been made in this game. Ops mode is now a playlist in multiplayer portal So rather than being it's own thing, Ops mode is now a playlist in ...

    @mistincat Thank you for the detailed posts. I just wanted to let you know that the thread most certainly isn't spam, but sometimes posts can trigger our automated removal bot. 

    These are things like making a long post on a relatively new account, or editing a long post (or spamming phone numbers or links, but obviously you haven't done this here). 

    In any case, the thread was rightfully reinstated, sorry for the delay and any confusion caused. 

    Thanks for the feedback, please keep it coming.

A couple more things to add after playing several more OPs:

-While not solely for ops, the night version of Pressure Pier is too dark inside the building where the grave-o-matic is located. Normally the PvZ shooters at night look like night but you can still see, that is not the case here, it's very hard to see what's going on inside.

-The Marigold (and one presumes the Yeti as well), bonus events do not give enough time to complete. It takes far too long just to find them in the first place, and when we did, we didn't have enough time to vanquish it, even with all 4 of us working on it.

-The maps are gorgeous but are too big for ops. I haven't done much of the PvP matches barring TT but these maps feel too big for 8v8 teams as well. We spend a lot of time running around trying to find where the enemies are spawning and it makes the OPs feel like they drag on. In GW1 and 2, you'd get a straggler here and there but nothing like this. In ops enemies could spawn closer to the objective which would help.

-The waves feel very long, possibly due to making them larger but only giving us 5. The large amounts of dead time involved in each wave exacerbates this issue.

I still had fun, and so a friend that joined me, but I feel there's a lot that needs to be addressed as well.

For me this is disaster, i can't believe that after two games, where Ops worked great, devs manage to break it so hard. Im okay that you can start Ops in portal like all other modes, i nevver liked that i have to go to other place to start Ops, and then go back to portal if i want to play TT, but everything else... oohhh boy. 

- Why can't we choose what side to play? Im not a big fan of plants, and mostly i want to play as zombies, and only sometimes as plants when i feel playin them.....

- Why can't we choose map? Give us atleast choise of 2 maps after finishin the game, so we can vote for a next map!

- Why can't we choose where to place base!? It kills huge part of variety if Base always standing in a same place

- What with the difficulty. You can't choose it, and difficulty i played was too easy.

- 5 wave not enough, only one roulette roll per game, spetial wave doesn't feel like spetial. Boss wave is also pretty garbage, alot of bosses that doesn't do much, and doesn't feel like a boss at all.. Is it even possible to get a spetial Boss wave when only one boss type, and that cool intro cutscene play!? (Like how beatyfull disco zombie boss wave was with that music)

- Defence bots/plants do nothing, the die from 1/2 stikes and barely do damage to even a most weak enemy.

- No escape, ending absolutely anticlimactic

Honesly. I really wanted to start likin that game, but this is last drop. I want to refund that game, i don't care anymore where its gonna go after release, i don't see how can it be changed to become fun now. Its not because its not GW3, its because BfN is bad, sluggish and boring. Pick 7 doesn't give such variety as classes, new artstyle is questionable, runnin animation is bad(And mostly for plants), leves baceme even more tight than in GW2(GW2 already made combat more closequarteered than GW1), they feel like tubes everywhere, and now Ops that feels like empty shell of former self. I feel this game is wrong at its core, and thats a worst situation. You can't even remove everything(Obviously noone gonna do it) around that core and completely revork it, but you can't rework the core.

But can't even refund it anymore! Its too much time already passed! That was smart move to release game without most of its content and actually call it a full release so when other parts of content releases and and its actually a dissapointment, you can't ask for refund!! Why did i let my love to GW1/2 made me buy BfN now.......this is first time in YEARS i feel sorry for wasting money.
