Even if this petition goes nowhere, it'll at least show support for the franchise. That's important so developers know they have a remaining audience and can try to make it even better than it was before. Whether or not this continues BFN's development, the franchise has a better chance of continuing. So whoever came up with this petition and those who support, you're helping to preventing this franchise's death.
(Hopefully that was something positive from me once from this thread.)
@Fork_x_Spoon Thank you for the reply 🙂!
I didn't want to sound too negative, I just thought we had enough negative posts already. Having said that, I understand why you feel this way. I was extremely disappointed after EA bought PopCap. On one side, the acquisition baled these ambitious 3D PvZ games to exist. On the other side, they made the original PvZ free to play and locked away my mini games from me with an update, even though I paid for them.
And it's fine if you like gw2 more. I was just confused, because I saw many people say they'll play gw2 now, considering BfN is dead. This made no sense to me, as the game is being overrun by cheaters and has a smaller player base. You don't need to apologize. And as you said, it is nice to see the community act as one and show love for the franchise as a whole 🙂
@Seavolcan I agree we shouldn't divide ourselves. After all, we're all united in a way, because we all love PvZ. There are many people here who prefer gw2 and say so often, but that's not really a bad thing in itself. I think the largest portion of people who said stuff like "Let's boycott BfN so it will be canceled and a gw3 will be made!" are on Reddit.
@iluminatethesky Thank you!
I'm still very active in the community, because I only joined 1 and a half months or so ago. Even though the community activity might slow down after the announcement, it's still nice to discuss PvZ with all the lovely people here 🙂! I also try to report as many bugs with footage I have collected as possible. It might help, considering we will still get bug fixes. I'll also try to collect feedback on the bots and help the remaining devs tune them with my pinned thread.
I guess I'll also remain here because there is no PvZ game with active content support available in my country (I don't count PvZ 2 anymore, Penny's Pursuit didn't add much). I hope PvZ 3 will see an international release soon.
I hope Iceburg Lettuce could be released, since it's nearly finished, but I'll remain pessimistic. Maybe another team can continue the PvZ shooters? Seems unlikely, but one can only dream ... .
Anyway, thank you for your posts and have a nice day 🙌
