Okay so Neighborville is cancelled, no big loss there.But please do some final tweaks on GW2 so we can at least keep on playing GW2 until hopefully a GW3 comes out.I expect that as soon as people realize that Neighborville is a dead end game they will be coming back to GW2, just like i did and i know many others too. But right now GW2 needs a lil extra to keep people playing. Especially the Mystery Portal could use some more variation, bring back Boss Hunts, Cats v/s Dino's and community Challenges. And at least two different events a month.I understand a weekly portal might be too much but two times a month shouldn't be that hard or is it??Hero showcases, now i didn't like those at all especially when Toxic Brains was on showcase but when you're new in this game it's a great way to get introduced to variants. I think that weekly or even a monthly showcase can be of great benefit for new players.As for people like me who are max rank there is just one thing i would really love to see and that's a way to spend my money faster on consumables. Buying the 2500 packs just takes up so much time and i'm sitting on 15 millions that i would love to spend. Maybe in one last update introduce something like a legendary consumable pack that costs like 100.000 coins but gives you way more stuff. Or just keep Boss hunt packs in it. That would help too.Please reconsider these things as we need at least one good place to keep all the PvZ lovers satisfied.

@MrKritiekI sadly suspect nothing will change, and actually fear for the future of Town Hall events going forward but fully support the plea.Boss Hunts & Cats vs Dinos are fun events & I would love to see them back in rotation as they came round so infrequently before.In the event that they are NOT going to be put back into rotation, I would really love it if PopCap could at least put these events on for a (heavily advertised) one last appearance - giving current players a chance to experience them & get those achievements.Put a poll out for which Boss people would like to see & make a true event of it - it might help to highlight just how many still love the game.Again, covering the worst case scenario where Town Hall events are under threat, it would be great if some kind of provision were made for items that would normally be available via the chests and especially for the coloured keys that unlock the Trials of Gnomus.As a max-ranker twice over, I especially support your idea of a larger pack of consumables being available - it's sooo frustrating standing at the machine for so long that you get booted out for inactivity 😂 If a larger pack can't be made available, it would be amazing to have the facility to at least puchase multiple packs at the same time.I'm not hopeful of any change, but a final, heartfelt, forlorn plea none-the-less from someone who has thousands of hours in the game to not abandon this amazing franchise, which is my bigger fear 🙏

If EA discontinues BfN updates, most likely, GW2 should gain more support, while they still have a significant player base there.

I've been playing GW2 this whole time, albeit at a much lower rate than I used to. With BfN shuddering to a halt like it is, I'll likely be playing more GW2 and some folks never played BfN much or have also been playing both games. At the least I'd like to see the town hall open with all the events available for folks and to see cheaters banned.

I just jumped into a TT portal on PC and despite people claiming that 'PC is dead in GW2' since before BfN even existed, it was a full lobby and popped almost immediately! And no cheaters that I saw either, which is even better.

@MrKritiek I don't play gw2 much and don't at all agree with BfN not being "a big loss". I came here to support the thread anyway, because I would actually like to check gw2 out a bit more after dismissing it. I didn't like playing it when it launched. I checked it out after updates and somewhat enjoyed the experience. If some final changes were made in order to make its final state better, I'd might check it out again.

Maybe some final tweaks to keep on playing? Please?

This really sucks. Not surprised that BFN sunk as it was a terrible game. Still hoping they will come back to PVZGW2 and give us what we want. The Sticker Shop is ridicules. Can't get anything good from it and am tired of spending coins on nothing. All of my variants have been Maxed for a long time but my daughter and nephews are still trying to get variants so please bring back Hero Showcase. We definitely need more than one Town Hall a month and I really miss the Community Chest. I can only hope but it is waning quickly.

@MrKritiek And BfN will still see some balancing adjustments and bug fixes. This means it is a much better game than gw2 after the final update. BfN has way less cheaters and the report function isn't active on gw2 I have heard.

I highly doubt BFN could ever top GW2. GW2 was a very big game with a lot to do, and was simply really fun. BFN is plagued with tons of micro-transactions. It also has sprinting which launched one of the most annoying playstyles in all of PVZ's history. The reason why they didn't cancel BFN sooner is probably because they wanted to milk it for all the money they could.

Town Hall is back in 11 hours. Yippee. Now if they just add back some of the other things we like, I'll be over joyed
