[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.
PLEASE FIX Battle For Neighborville on Nintendo Switch 2!!
I have been trying to play PvZ: Battle For Neighborville on my new Nintendo Switch 2 for the past 2-3 days and it CONSTANTLY keeps crashing!! When I load into the game, while in Giddy Park, my screen starts glitching and flickering super bad it is very bad to look at and hurts my eyes. When I try loading into an offline match of any mode the game crashes almost 100% of the time. It will close the app and my Nintendo Switch 2 will say, “This software needed to close due to an error.” Then when I go back in and try a different mode, it does the SAME THING. I don’t understand why we can’t just play the game. You guys are literally losing out on money if you don’t fix this. We need the game officially optimized for the Nintendo Switch 2, and while you’re at it, you could even update it to handle 60fps because the Switch 2 can now handle 60fps pretty smooth. Also I have heard from some other people that apparently Battle For Neighborville isn’t even AVAILABLE for purchase on the Switch 2 eShop. They locked the game so no one can buy it, hopefully that means they’re going to fix it? But I would still like someone from EA to get back to me and let me know what the situation is. PLEASE HELP! Thanks EDIT: After doing a bit more testing it’s actually worse than I thought, there were a few times where I went into the game and it would crash before I could even select a GAME MODE. Also, the few times I was able to play an entire match while the screen was flashing, as soon as the game ended, the game just crashed. Nothing I could do about it. This game DEFINITELY needs fixed. If you want to see a video or clip of these glitches happening I also saw a YouTube video from a YouTuber by the name of RiceDRW. Here is the link to that video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zl1xi2yGuxM
GW2 is unable to reach 100% and unable to launch on Steam Deck. POPCAP plz.
I don't understand why EA/PopCap refused to give any love to one of their most beloved franchises under their belt. Not only is there a subpar anti-cheat being added, locking out a portion of the player base while still not protecting players, but the current players can't even 100% the game due to design oversights. If there were any way for them to allow Steam Deck players to have crossplay or cross-save, this game would have a resurgence. We've seen it maintain thousands of players despite the lack of updates, and instead of making a new game or fixing the old one, they let it slowly get taken over by cheaters while they release another AI-generated remaster of your childhood game, and they can't even include the minigames across the various versions of Plants vs. Zombies. Really, what is EA/PopCap thinking? I can't be the only one with these thoughts.EA Community manager's
I saw below a post by a Chinese player voicing many of the bugs and issues plaguing the GW2 servers, and you as a team have said nothing for years about the state of GW and PVZ as a franchise but were quick within minutes to silence this player. Please instead take this criticism up to people on the team so that the game we all love can be fixed. Below is what they said. Since early April 2026, the Garden Warfare 2 servers have been plagued by rule set modifications, including 1 hp, invisibility, and others. Cheaters have infected every region and every game mode. No matter how hard we try, all servers are infected. At least for this small community, please at least reset the servers. They didn't say anything wrong, and I just want any response or attention to this matter plaguing the servers at the moment.
problema com a conexão do jogo
eu comprei o jogo há 2 dias e estou tentando entrar nele hoje e não consigo, diz que fui desconectado dos servidores EA e que não será possível fazer nada até eu me reconectar. já atualizei os drivers, executei por .exe, reinstalei, verifiquei integridade dos arquivos na steam, chequei se era ban e não era, verifiquei se era a internet e não era também por que minha internet está 420 MB/s. não sei mais o que fazer.

Plants vs. Zombies 1 for PS5 and Switch
Since xbox is the only console where you can still play the console version of plants vs zombies 1 thanks to being backwards compatible with the xbox 360 (and it's also available on game pass but only for xbox consoles), it would be so cool to port it for the other consoles like ps5 and switch since the ps5 it's not backwards compatible with the ps3 and nintendo never got that version on home consoles. It's kinda necessary at this point since it's so hard to play the console versions nowdays because not everyone has an xbox and not a lot of people owns a ps3 nowdays, it's also difficult to find physical copies of the game too and they're overpriced. Would be glad to at least get some kind of response!
