    Woot! Woot! I have finally beat the zombies in this Outnumbered challenge. splash_damage, I have tried too many times but after reading your tips and watching your peashooter and citron videos, I got the win after only a handful more tries with my peashooter. Rather than trying to chase them down, I hung out with my ai pals and waited for the zombies to wander toward us. It truly did seem like the more gatling vanquishes I got without being vanquished myself, then my ai pals played a bit better too. Thank you so much for helping here. I don’t think I’ll try again any time soon but kudos to you for getting it right with so many characters. Again your tips and videos are much appreciated. - BabciaRosie

@spIash_damageOk wow...this proves it's my skill that's lacking. It looks like keeping your distance is important, I know that if I get too close I get hammered by multiple zombies. I do not have my Citron leveled up so I will try my pea tonight but it won't be my first try with the green dude...he has always left the fight early with mashed peas oozing from his wounds. Thanks for posting this, there is hope. Do you think you would have done ok with acorn as well? He's the one I have been trying with just because every other plants health is so low in this fight, like one shot death.

Oak is trash on console more than any other character due to the way he fires and the aim assist hinders crosshairs (I play with aim assist off, too).

I tried 4-5 times with Oak and would have to be super serious, try-hard + a little lucky (AI performance) to win.... much like Corn, who I lost 3 times last night when my score was in the 40’s; lost once 50-49.

Peashooter and Citron are in a playable state but the other Plants, not so much.  This challenge exacerbates these inadequacies with other characters (such as Sunflower, who even though isn’t intended to attack, should be able to play her role and win).  

Oak is going to be tough on console to win this challenge.  If I have time tonight, I’ll make an Oak and Corn video.

My strongest advice is to NOT bombard the enemy aggressively the way we did in GW 1 & 2.
