[Resolved] Change the Mystery Portal Rotation, Please!
There are multiple achievements that are unobtainable at the moment (Check this post for more information about them) There are 5 achievements tied to game modes you cannot play anymore. How you used to play these game modes is when they would go live in the Town Hall Mystery Portal for a limited time. In January back in 2020, the Mystery Portal was changed. PopCap stopped supporting Garden Warfare 2 to continue development on Battle for Neighborville. To avoid shutting down the Mystery Portal, they made the Mystery Portal automated by making it rotate game modes based off of a list of what to play dependent on what month. The problem with this rotation is that they didn't include any live event game modes that have achievements tied to them. So at the moment, getting all GW2 achievements is actually impossible. (Check the post I linked above for what they are.) Current Rotation: - January: Lawn-A-Thon 1 - Febuary: Lawn-A-Thon 2 - March: Legends of the Brawl - April: Capture the Taco - May: Tactical Team Up - June: To Heal or Not - July: Rando's Rapid Revenge - August: Lawn-A-Thon 1 - September: Lawn-A-Thon 2 - October: Legends of the Brawl - November: To Heal or Not - December: Rando's Rapid revenge In my opinion, the most favorable option would be getting someone from the community to make a schedule everyone is happy with. A different solution that's automated, and easier to do would be exchanging some of the game mode repeats in the list for game modes like Cats vs. Dinos and Boss Hunt. For example, you can replace the repeated August Lawn-A-Thon 1 with Cats vs. Dinos, and September's Lawn-A-Thon 2 with Boss Hunt. All of the content with these game modes are in the game when you download it, so releasing an update that players need to download wouldn't be necessary. The only problem I see with this is that Boss Hunt has 4 different playable hunts, Brothers Gnomus, Yeti King, Spooky Squash, and Sasquatch. You would have to pick one of these to put into the rotation, but I think implementing a system that makes the game randomly pick one of them when you enter the portal to play is the best choice instead of picking 1 and neglecting the other 3.
Failed To Find A Match
Recently there has been yet another issue on Garden Warfare 2. Players can no longer find matches. Every time the multiplayer portal is entered, "Failed to find a match" or "Failed to connect to the game session, please try again." is shown. This has been going on for the past day, and nobody has been able to access and play online matches.
URGENT: Content Creator's GW2 Account Sabotaged by "Level 46" Hack. Help!
My Garden Warfare 2 account was subjected to a targeted hack that has left me unable to access multiplayer. Starting around 23:50 Beijing Time on the 27th and continuing for about two hours until the end of my livestream, I returned from a multiplayer match to the Backyard only to find all my character levels had been abnormally reset to "46." Additionally, two unauthorized "313 Level Reward Sticker Packs" appeared in my Sticker Shop. Since then, I've been completely locked out of multiplayer. During the session, I initially played on Asian servers but encountered a "lobby switcher" hack in the very first match (as seen in my stream recording BV1R4sSz5EaG). I then switched to the West Americas servers, where I played for about an hour and a half without noticeable issues—until returning to the Backyard around 01:16 Beijing Time on the 28th, when the damage became apparent. The "Level 46" reset is a known unofficial method used by hackers as a form of retaliation or "account blocking," previously observed in community-led anti-cheat efforts. It is extremely unfortunate that I have now become a target of this malicious act. If we choose to look away today, when disaster strikes us tomorrow, there will be no one left to speak up for us. My channel on Bilibili (https://space.bilibili.com/39507722) has been dedicated to creating gameplay videos and reviews for the Plants vs. Zombies series since 2016, primarily focusing on the original PvZ and Garden Warfare 2. To date, my videos have accumulated over 4.366 million total views across the platform. My most popular Garden Warfare 2 reviews—featuring the Peashooter and Foot Soldier—have reached 162,000 and 124,000 views respectively. Through my content, I've helped attract tens of thousands of new players to the game, and I’ve built a meaningful presence within the Chinese PvZ community. I've also contributed to the development of a well-known "PvZ1-2 hybrid Pak" mod in China—a project that many players recognize. I have poured my heart into supporting this game and its community. It would be devastating if all these efforts were cut short by a malicious hack. I sincerely hope that EA does not overlook a dedicated creator like me. This incident occurred in the early hours of October 28th, Beijing Time. To support my case, I have included the live stream recording from that day. The video evidence clearly shows my account was functioning normally prior to the incident and can help identify the malicious activity. I strongly urge you to review it: （https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1R4sSz5EaG）
Unable to connect to EA servers for Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2 on PC
I have been having problems with being able to play PVZ. Every time I load up the game, it tells me "Uh Oh, Your unable to play online due to not being connected to EA servers." I have tried to ask EA support but everything they told me didn't work. I looked on the Forums to see if anyone had the same problem. A lot of people do, and all the things that helped these people didn't work for me. "Reset the time" I did, didn't work. "Check if its a child account" Its not, I just created an account a few days ago. I had bought the game on a steam sale. The servers are not down. What do I do? I will end up refunding the game if i cant get anything that works. Why EA still is selling a game that doesn't even work? Who knows? I'm frustrated and want it fixed. Thanks.
GW2 on PC is completely unplayable
The title explains the problem. Some internet sleuths found out that the 10th anniversary drew the attention of a hacker who created a [Edit - CM] mod to completely break the game and make it unplayable. Every single lobby has the same wonky settings (like invisible players and 1hp) and the lag gets out of control to the point that the game crashes. It's not just the North American servers either, every single region has this issue. It has been like this over 24 hours now. The fact that this person was able to do this, and the fact that it has been 24 hours of radio silence from EA just further invites hackers to come take shots at the game on PC. It's just embarrassing all around that EA is currently having their servers held hostage on one of their games (a game that they have available to play for free via EA plus and Xbox Game Pass, so it's not like this can be kept hush hush). And yes, I understand that when a developer makes another game with dedicated servers in a franchise the vast majority of resources goes to that game (looking at you, Neighborville) but still... no server support? None?
