Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted (Bugs and Suggestions)
The game is getting better and better every month. Since I have the Nintendo Switch version the 1.5.0 patch is delayed so I haven't been able to try out the update yet but here's what I've noticed in the current version. I would also like to make a few suggestions if that's ok.
Bugs
(1.) When you switch back and forth between the normal Peashooter and the Retro one, they shoot the wrong peas. Also now the Retro Zombies and the Head Crab Zombies only show up when you see them in the Choose your seeds screen. If you don't see them there you need to make sure the boxes are checked in the cheat menu, then you have to restart the level to make them appear in the choose your seeds screen.
(2.) In the Almanac before you discover the Zombie Yeti, his insignia icon doesn't show up, instead it goes straight to the Bungee Zombie. After you discover him, his regular Icon shows up where it's supposed to be, but when you select it, instead of being in the idle animation he is in the walking animation going faster than normal.
(3.) Dr. Zomboss' Almanac icon isn't positioned properly at the bottom of the screen. Also when you defeat Dr. Zomboss, when the Zombot's head falls off, Zomboss with his surprised expression is not there.
(4.) In survival mode when you select "View Lawn" then return back to the seed selection screen, the screen doesn't scroll correctly.
(5.) Sometimes after you beat Level 3-5, or "Big Trouble Little Zombie" the zombies stay high pitched until you reset the game.
(6.) When The Catapult Zombie runs out of basketballs the sprite doesn't physically show the basketballs disappearing in the basket. Additionally, when the Catapult Zombie enters his 3rd phase, the basketball hoop and the metal pole disappears.
(7.) For some reason in Adventure mode the conveyor belt moves faster than normal, but in the mini-games it moves at normal speed.
(8.) When you're growing the tree of wisdom the growing animation plays faster than normal, and the leaves fly onto it rather than grow on it.
(9.) Normally you have the Zombie Sun Glasses, Zombie Mustache, Alternate Lawnmower, Alternate Brains Sounds, unlocked at the beginning of the game by default, but currently they unlock randomly in the later levels.
(10.) In Pool levels during the final wave, the zombies don't emerge from the water properly.
(11.) This isn't really a glitch but I've noticed that the Grasswalk Day theme is missing a cymbal or gong sound at the 50 second mark (00:50:02) so it sounds a little off when it loops.
(12.) The Achievement get sound effect is missing
(13.) The intro to the game doesn't play correctly
(14.) I don't know if this issue is only on switch or not, but when you're in Crazy Dave's Twiddydinkies he only says his random text in Handheld Mode. In TV Mode his text box only describes what is currently being selected
Suggestions
(1.) In the Choose Your Seeds screen, it would be nice if you could just press a button to remove Seed Packets from your roster just like in the old PS3, PS Vita, and Xbox 360 versions. Currently if you want to remove Seed Packets you have to select all the ones you already selected again.
(2.) It would be nice if a Quick Play button was added to the Main Menu because currently whenever you beat zomboss in Level 5-10, all the other levels except for Level 1-1 are locked, and you have to go through the game again just to get to a certain level you want to replay. In addition, once you beat the game for the first time you can't replay Adventure 1 levels at all.
I think Adventure mode should be a continuous game just like the original Game Of The Year PC version, and Quick Play should be separate from Adventure mode and let you play any level from Adventure 1 and Adventure 2 as you unlock them. Quick Play should be unlocked after completing Level 1-1 for the first time. Also in the original PC version the zombie hand and the evil laugh animation played whenever you enter Adventure mode. Now it only plays when you start Adventure mode for the first time.
(3.) I think it would be cool if zombatar was brought back. In the original Game Of The Year PC version the 2nd costume is glitch so it looks like all the other costumes are stacked on top of each other.
(4.) There is 1 more unused mini-game that wasn't added to the Bonus Games list called "Squirrel". (It's funny that the squirrels' heads look like Crazy Dave's head with buck teeth, a big nose, and squirrel ears)😂. (Image attached below)
(5.) In the PS3, PS Vita, and Xbox 360 versions, there was a rare chance that a zombie would get a nut allergy from taking a bite out of a Wall-nut. I'm not sure if this also applies to Tall-nuts or not. I think that would be a nice detail to bring back to Replanted (gif attached below)
