[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.
Recently bought Garden Warfare 2 for my PS5, can’t seem to play
I am met with a loading screen forever or a loading screen leading to an error message. The game downloaded just fine and everything has been updated. I have restarted and turned off and on my PlayStation to no avail. Don’t really know what to do
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.The possible revival of plants vs zombies GW2
EA_ShepardI know it’s been a while since you have touched on the topic I and everyone else wants to know how it’s going getting a green light for an upcoming update for the game. PS I would like to see what you guys can do with to torch wood and hover goat variants. kind regards Josh
Garden Warfare 2 will not open, no matter what
Hey all, I downloaded Garden Warfare 2 today after not playing it for a while. I was excited to hop back in, but the game just will not start, no matter what. When I press "Play" on the EA app, the game has a little splash screen that opens up for a while. It has a progress bar, which, when full, closes the splash screen and re-opens the EA app. I've attached a video to this post which shows what happens. I've tried all sorts of fixes. Here are all the ones I recall trying: - updated drivers - uninstalled and then reinstalled the EA app - repaired the EA app - repaired GW2 - uninstalled and then reinstalled GW2 - checked Windows for any corrupted files - cleared all temporary Windows files and rebooted - ran the EA app as administrator - ran the GW2_retail.exe file as administrator - tried to delete the "Cryptbase.dll" file, but it doesn't exist - ran the EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe to no avail My main guess is that the anti cheat has some sort of problem with my PC, but I have no clue what it could be. I really hope it isn't a hardware issue... if anyone has any experience/guidance here, it would be much appreciated!
