Uh oh, I hope splashdamage doesn't see this.

Apart from some issues from ranked battle arena, I can't see many issues with this game! 🙂
@Gormey 😃 😃 😃
Well, we all know its not perfect and certainly BA seems to be causing a lot of grief to a lot of people... but mostly we still love the game and the Devs have had.... eh... a bit of a rough start from the beginning to say the least.
Heres hoping the future is bright and issues and problems will be eventually ironed out 🤞🙂- Well, if we didn't love the franchise & didn't still hope certain issues can be addressed, we wouldn't all still be here, would we?
I do appreciate the work that has gone / does go into the game, despite the bumpy path.... & I could forgive a lot if we had cross-play! 😜🤣 @SockReverie Just curious if you play TT exclusively... or have you tried to play BA lately?
Offensive to insinuate those of us who have issues aren’t appreciative people.

- @spIash_damage Sorry if it came off like I was trying to undermine your previous appreciation posts or the posts of others, but I just wanted to give the devs a little credit since I’ve seen (and admittedly taken part in) them being ragged on from Founders to today.
Again, the major issue that comes with Battle Arena (and the rest of the game as an extension) is the poor matchmaking and the fact that Zombies are more powerful than Plants. I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt and trust them to fix this through balancing and maintenance, because it’s a rough process. Clearly it’s more difficult than it seems because the new max ban time was supposed to be 4 hours yet people were locked out for years without even playing BA once.
I know how frustrating it can be trying to compete in Battle Arena with randoms hundreds of ranks below you while the entire other team is comprised of black rank plates. I’m only in B- (and barely at that) because of how often I’ve been set back by teammates who don’t want to cooperate or who ragequit in the middle of sessions, but occasionally we miraculously turn the game around even when it’s 3 to 4.
I’m not trying to be rude, so I would like it if you didn’t try to passive-aggressively comment on the fact that I might “play TT exclusively” when I rotate between every game mode for variety. Not passive aggressive about anything... trying to be polite and was genuinely curious about your experience with BA. I can’t play more than 1-2 matches PER HOUR.
....and there’s nothing wrong with people who enjoy TT exclusively.I didn’t know whether you’d tried to play BA and I KNOW even if you do play it now, you didn’t before or you’d agree with me. The mode is BROKEN and it’s the only mode I enjoy (think about that; if I am a one-mode gamer why would I chastise you for playing only Turf?).... I wasn’t being P/A... I was trying to understand how you could think the game is headed in the right direction when the only mode I enjoy is unplayable for me now?!
I am more than happy to stay out of your threads moving forward. 👍
I agree with the sentiment of the original post. We complain here about the game because we love the franchise and want it to improve, still there is nothing wrong with sometimes just giving love to the Devs for their efforts. If I was in popcap working hard at my job I would appreciate that.
Of course it has been done here before also.
Having said that, splash is also bang on, I am an exclusive TT and TV player. I never got into BA but from reading threads here they have made a real mess of it. If that happened to my favourite modes I would be furious. Popcap should focus exclusively on fixing BA above anything else.
