Thoughts for GW3
I’ve posted something like this before and under a different thread but considering that the next PvZ shooter, which I presume will be GW3 (although it could be a new take on a PvZ shooter), I wanted...

I jumped on GW1 over the long weekend and have a few more observations from my time back in that game, things I missed or forgot about in my large post here. I also found it interesting that I jumped into a G&G queue and it popped into a full match virtually instantly!
Nothing huge or game-breaking but a few things I noticed I'd like to see in GW3 and I'm sure some of this has been mentioned by other players here as well:
I played my Sky Trooper for one match and I forgot that the rocket backpack reflected the status of my rocket ability. The nose cone in the backpack disappears when it fires and returns once the ability is recharged. Hardly a major issue but a nice touch that I don't see in my GW2 Sky Trooper. This kind of visual representation gives us an immediate visual feedback and adds that little extra touch to your character as well.
The gardens and graveyards are more elaborate and the scarecrows on the gardens animate while the plants hold it. The new gardens and graveyards are certainly not bad but they lack this more detailed appearance and character. This has been mentioned before as well. It's a really nice touch that has no game play effect but is still appreciated as it shows more attention to detail.
At the end of the match in GW1 it generates that custom map with all the points listed for the trophies at the end. In GW2 it's a simple linear display that doesn't list the points. Again this is a minor thing but it also adds to the ambience. A return to this level of detail in GW3 would be most welcome.
I posted this in a different thread:
Among my wish list:
PLEASE bring back the video tutorials for characters' special abilities. You shouldn't have to go searching all over the internet to figure out what the heck a particular mech's special abilities are, for example. I only just finally figured out today that Drake Mech's right bumper ability is a shield. This sort of information should be available in-game, not up to the community to provide on its own.
Another thing that I'm so used to but has been brought up again here recently is the issue with shooting and terrain; both shooting through objects that should be solid and more often hitting things you are near but can't even see when you are sniping. So many times as a cactus for example that I shot my own tall nut wall, even though I can't see it or barely see it in my reticle and am aiming above it, that it hurts the main purpose we have the nuts in the first place. Having a small branch block a shot but then a rocket goes through a column is something that needs to be fixed for certain.
