Dear Development Team of Plants vs. Zombies Replanted:
The following is an AI translation due to my limited English proficiency; some inaccuracies may exist.As a loyal Chinese player, I have had a lot of fun while playing the game. At the same time, I have also found some areas that can be optimized, and I hope to contribute my ideas to the further improvement of the game. Hello! Thank you for being willing to listen to players’ genuine thoughts on Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted. We fully understand that the original Plants vs. Zombies (PvZ), as a classic IP carrying countless players’ youthful memories, owes its irreplaceable and precious status in every player’s heart to its "authentic" core gameplay, nostalgic atmosphere, and operational feel. This essence must be firmly guarded and must not be diminished by any adjustments. However, we also need to be honest: based solely on the currently revealed screenshots, this remade work falls significantly short of the expectations of many players, including myself. A mere copy-paste approach is an extremely risky path! For the true value of a "remake" has never been "blind replication"; instead, it lies in injecting new vitality into the classic IP through continuous innovation—while firmly upholding the foundation of "authenticity"—and accurately striking a balance between tradition and innovation. The core issue at hand is the severe lack of freshness in the current content. The key to solving this problem, precisely, is to add new plants, new zombies, and more new elements on the basis of preserving the original game’s classic framework, allowing "nostalgia" and "surprise" to coexist harmoniously at this balance point. For a classic IP like Plants vs. Zombies, a "remake" is by no means "blind replication." Its core value lies in: while retaining the original’s "classic foundation" (such as core gameplay logic and nostalgic atmosphere), revitalizing the classic IP through innovation. We are not opposed to "authenticity"; on the contrary, we eagerly hope that "the unique plants from the original version can be presented in their original card form"—that is, preserving the classic design, attributes, and operational feel of the original plants’ cards, while adding new plant slots through a brand-new format. This way, new content and classic experiences will not interfere with each other: it will satisfy long-time players’ pursuit of pure nostalgia, while also not depriving everyone of the joy of unlocking new plants and exploring new content. However, if the current plan is only to replicate the original without additions—such as new plants (e.g., functional plants adapted to new scenarios), new zombies (e.g., enemies with unique mechanics), or supplementary elements like new scenes and new gameplay modes—it will not only make players who pay for the "remake" feel that "the cost-performance is insufficient" (after all, no one wants to repeatedly pay for old content that is "a new coat with the same core") but also cause the work to lose its differentiated competitiveness, ultimately leading to poor reputation and sluggish sales. Just as "presenting the original version’s unique plants & zombies in their original card form" and "introducing new plants & zombies in additional slot forms" are ways to safeguard the classic, the new plant slots (in a fresh format) are an extension of innovation. A truly excellent remake should, while preserving the classic, let new elements become surprises rather than burdens. It is important to understand that when players look forward to a "remake," they are not only reminiscing about the original’s "authenticity" but also eager to gain new experiences within a familiar framework: it could be tactical innovations brought by new plants, new challenges posed by new zombies, or the sense of immersion from combining new sound effects, new visual details, and new gameplay. This "balance between innovation and nostalgia" is the true meaning of remaking the original—it allows long-time players to rediscover their passion and attracts new players to feel the charm of this classic IP. If your development team is still hesitant about whether to add cross-version exclusive content to Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted, we suggest collecting opinions from all players through a survey. The specific survey plan is as follows: Core Content of the Survey This survey focuses on "whether to add cross-version exclusive content" (integrating exclusive content from other versions with elements of the classic version), including: Plants vs. Zombies: Great Wall Edition features exclusive plants and zombies, such as special defensive plants adapted to the Great Wall scene and enemies with Chinese-style designs. Plants vs. Zombies: Journey to the West Edition includes distinctive characters and mechanics, like zombies modeled after Journey to the West figures and functional plants infused with mythological elements. Plants vs. Zombies: Kingdom Edition has unique gameplay and elements, such as kingdom-themed scenes and new plant abilities that align with the kingdom setting. 【The first three versions mentioned above are all exclusive to China. However, the Kingdom Edition was never officially released. If we could fully recreate the once-unreleased Kingdom Edition, the 6th level from the Original Beta version, and the unused prototype plants and zombies from the Original Beta version, it would make up for the regret of many players from that era!】 Plants vs. Zombies: Original Beta 2008 is an internal test version used before the official release. It contained a 6th level, which was removed in the official version. Additionally, unused prototype plants and zombies were also cut, including Propeller Zombie, Cherry Hover-bomb, Stinger, Iceberg Lettuce, and Time Stopper. Plants vs. Zombies: Original Game of the Year Edition 2010 features the exclusive Zombatar function, which enables players to create unique zombie avatars. Once a custom zombie is designed, it will replace the Flag Zombie whenever a flag wave arrives in the game. If players have made multiple Zombatars, a random one will be selected to show up in each flag wave. The game provides a wealth of customization options, covering skins, hairstyles, beards, eyes, glasses, clothes, accessories, hats and backgrounds. Players can mix and match these elements freely, and adjust their corresponding colors or styles to create a truly one-of-a-kind zombie look. Players can use their self-made Zombatars as profile pictures on platforms including Facebook, Instagram, X, WeChat, QQ, TikTok, iMessage and Steam. On the game’s main interface, there is a Zombatar option. A click on it will lead players to the creation interface, where they can choose their favorite styles from the tabs of different parts, and preview the changes of the zombie avatar in real time. Classic plants and zombies from Plants vs. Zombies 2 and Plants vs. Zombies 3 (selecting characters with high player recognition that fit the original game’s gameplay framework). Featured mechanics, new elements, and new zombies from Plants vs. Zombies: Heroes (e.g., skill effects and character designs that can be adapted to the original game’s gameplay). Other original new content, including but not limited to: new scenes (e.g., season-themed levels), new gameplay modes (e.g., limited-time challenges, co-op levels), new sound effects, and visual detail optimizations. Key Guarantee Mechanisms If the survey results support the addition of the aforementioned cross-version exclusive content, the development team must commit to implementing two principles: "presenting the original version’s unique plants & zombies in their original card form" and "introducing new plants & zombies in additional slot forms," and design new plant slots in a fresh format. The specific rules are as follows: All plants and zombies from the original PvZ will retain their original card appearance, attribute values, and usage logic to ensure that long-time players experience no difference in operational feel. Newly added plants and zombies will appear in additional slot forms, and these slots can be given a brand-new background design. New plants and zombies will be categorized and labeled separately in the encyclopedia to clearly distinguish between "original plants" and "newly added plants" (and "original zombies" and "newly added zombies"), making it easy for players to find and manage them. The order of display will prioritize "original slots," with "newly added slots" placed below the original ones. Unlocking and using new plant slots will not affect the experience of original plants. Players can independently choose whether to bring new plants into levels, enabling free switching between "classic gameplay" and "innovative content." Design of Survey Voting Options The survey will provide two clear options for players to choose based on their needs: Option 1: I support it! Option 2: I oppose! Survey Notes and Explanations Notes: Thank you for purchasing and experiencing Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted! Your vote will directly influence the future content development direction of the game, and every opinion is crucial to the team’s decision-making. It is particularly important to emphasize that the core goal of this survey has always been to achieve a balance between "preserving the original’s authentic experience" and "adding innovative content." Regardless of whether cross-version exclusive content is ultimately added, "not damaging the classic foundation and not diminishing the nostalgic experience" is an unshakable premise. All innovations will be centered around "enhancing the vitality of the classic" rather than deviating from the core charm of the original game. Use of Survey Results: After the survey ends, the development team must publicly release the results and determine whether to proceed with the development of cross-version exclusive content based on the majority of players’ choices. This ensures that the final product not only safeguards the "authenticity" cherished by players but also brings freshness through innovation—truly meeting players’ core demand for a "high-quality remake." Therefore, we earnestly request that the development team prioritize user needs, and take "preserving the original’s authentic experience" and "adding innovative content" as guiding principles throughout the development process. Please focus on considering the addition of new plants, new zombies, and diverse new elements, so that Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted can become a sincere work that is truly "worth looking forward to and worth purchasing." Thank you again for taking the time to read this feedback. We sincerely look forward to seeing optimizations and breakthroughs in the work in the future, and to enjoying a high-quality gaming experience that is "both familiar and fresh"! Bugs that need priority handling Chinese Text Display Issues In the latest version of Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted, there are obvious visual inconsistencies in Chinese text display. This issue has affected the player experience, so some Chinese players even install third-party patches to make the visual effect of Chinese text consistent. For example: When entering the game's initial interface, the font style of the title "Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted" is significantly inconsistent with that of Plants vs. Zombies (Chinese Original Version) and Plants vs. Zombies 2 (Chinese Server). For example: In the game's main interface, two problems exist with Chinese text. First, the text sizes are inconsistent. Second, there are unnecessary line breaks, which damage the overall visual integrity of the interface. For example: The Chinese translation of "Fume-shroom" in this version is incorrectly rendered as "Du Pao Mo Gu", and "Spikeweed" is mistakenly translated as "Jing Ji Cao". Additionally, while the Chinese translations on other interfaces are not erroneous, they do not fully align with the descriptions in the original Chinese version. It is recommended that the Chinese translations in this version be unified with the textual descriptions of the original Chinese edition. 【If you don't quite understand the content of the description, you can refer to the attached photo!】 Display Issue in Mist Level Survival Mode In the mist level of Survival Mode, after completing the first round, zombies are completely obscured by the mist during the plant selection phase. Players cannot see which zombies will appear on the battlefield, and even if Clovers are used to disperse the mist, it quickly reappears. Display Issues of Plants Planted in Grid Front Within Levels Current Problems: When dragging a plant/zombie slot to plant, the texture of the plant/zombie in the slot remains static without a transition effect from transparent to fully opaque. If the static texture of the dragged plant/zombie is moved to an unplantable area, the texture will stay permanently. Even when moved to a plantable area, the static texture may still remain indefinitely. This is extremely tricky for touchscreen players. When selecting a plant/zombie slot, four 90-degree right angles do not appear around the slot—this causes significant discomfort for players with obsessive-compulsive tendencies. Under touchscreen operation, dragging a plant triggers a "cross" display, but dragging a shovel over grids does not activate the "cross" display. Optimization Suggestions: When dragging a plant/zombie slot to plant, add dynamic effects to the plant/zombie texture in the slot (i.e., maintain animation state). The farther the dynamic texture of the plant/zombie is from all slots, the higher its opacity. When the dynamic texture is moved to an unplantable area, it should disappear immediately after releasing the drag, without remaining. When the dynamic texture of the plant/zombie is moved to a plantable area, there should be no possibility of permanent retention. When clicking a plant/zombie slot, four 90-degree right angles should appear around the slot, consistent with the mobile version of Plants vs. Zombies (Original). Under touchscreen operation, dragging both plants and shovels over grids should trigger the "cross" display (no display required for non-touchscreen operation). Planting can only be completed after releasing the drag in both operation modes. 【Switch and some Windows PCs support touchscreen operations. It is recommended that the above features be applied across all platforms. For reference, this functionality can align with the design of Plants vs. Zombies 2.】 Display Issues with Item Usage Currently, under touchscreen controls, the shovel cannot remove plants by dragging within levels. In the Zen Garden, items such as the watering can, golden watering can, pesticide, fertilizer, phonograph, gardening glove, and wheelbarrow cannot be used on potted plants via swiping. In the Tree of Wisdom interface, tree fertilizer cannot be fed to the Tree of Wisdom via swiping. 【Switch and some Windows PCs support touchscreen operations; it is recommended that the above features be applied to all platforms.】 Display Issue in Cloudy Weather Mode Levels In the interface of cloudy weather levels without a swimming pool, there is an abnormality in the raindrop landing animation. According to the design logic, lanes 1, 2, and 5 should show the effect of raindrops falling on the ground, but currently lanes 3 and 4 display the water ripple effect as if raindrops are falling into a swimming pool. It is recommended to fix this display error so that the raindrop animation in pool-less scenes is consistent with the actual level environment. Fix the Issue of Darkened Colors When Shadows Overlap When shadows of multiple zombies or plants overlap, the shadow color becomes darkened, which affects the game’s visual appeal and presentation. It is recommended to fix this problem so that shadows maintain their normal color when overlapping. This will make the game interface clearer and more natural, providing players with a better visual experience. A feasible solution is to adjust the shadow rendering settings: set the sprite’s opacity to 100% and control the overall shadow transparency through the layer opacity instead. This prevents color deepening caused by overlapping semi-transparent shadows . Alternatively, use a dedicated shadow camera to render shadows to a texture and adjust the display effect via a custom shader, ensuring consistent color even when shadows overlap . Fix the Visual Overlap Issue of Multiple Flame Effects Resolve the problem where the edge color of flames darkens when multiple flame projectiles or other forms of flames overlap. This ensures the normal visual effect of the game screen and enhances the player’s gaming experience. The fix can focus on optimizing the flame particle system: adjust the particle material’s blend mode to "Translucent" and properly set the opacity to avoid excessive occlusion . Enable depth testing and reasonable sorting modes (such as "View Depth") to ensure correct rendering of semi-transparent flame particles and prevent abnormal color mixing . Mini Zombie Level Sound Effect Residue Bug After completing the mini-game "Little Zombie Trouble" and the "Pool 3-5" level, when playing other levels, the zombie sound effects will be abnormally replaced by mini zombie sound effects, which affects the gameplay immersion. Abnormal Obstacle-Crossing Judgment of Dolphin Rider Zombie When a Tall-Nut is planted in Column 10 of the Pool, the Dolphin Rider Zombie can still jump over it, which violates the design logic of Tall-Nut's blocking function. "Zombie Nimble Zombie Quick" Level Speed Multiplier Function Fix It is recommended to limit the speed multiplier button in the "Zombie Nimble Zombie Quick" mini-game level to the range of 2x - 2.5x speed; currently, there is an abnormality where the actual running speed reaches 4x after adjusting to 2x speed, resulting in an imbalance in the level difficulty. Achievement "Enlightened" Difficulty Inconsistent with the Original Version The difficulty of completing the "Enlightened" achievement in the current version is seriously inconsistent with that of the original version. In the original version, players only needed to collect all plants across all scenes in the garden to unlock this achievement, even if the number of duplicate potted plants was controlled at no more than about 6 pairs. However, in this version, players are required not only to collect all plants across all garden scenes, but also to keep the number of duplicate potted plants at a minimum—an excessive number of duplicates will make this achievement unobtainable. It is recommended to lower the difficulty of unlocking the "Enlightened" achievement in this version and align it with the original version. Abnormal Display of Sun-shroom Size The size of Sun-shroom in the current version is displayed abnormally in both the Almanac and Zen Garden: In the Almanac, the size of Sun-shroom remains in its immature state at all times, which is inconsistent with the original version. In the Zen Garden, even if Sun-shroom is fully fertilized to its maximum growth stage, its size still stays in the immature state, which does not match the original version. The following feedback is presented in the form of suggestions, all of which can highlight the key significance of its remastering: I. System Adaptation and Interface Optimization Optimization Suggestions for Dynamic Welcome Interface Upon launching the game, the "EA PopCap" logo is displayed with stunning, elaborate animations paired with background music that syncs perfectly with the animation’s rhythm, replacing the current lackluster static display of the logo alone. Additionally, the dynamic Plants vs. Zombies-themed artwork activates its animations in real time as the game loads, rather than only starting the dynamic effects after the green progress bar completes. The dynamic welcome interface supports custom positioning for all character sprites, with their animations expanded far beyond simple back-and-forth swaying. This revamp delivers a fresher, more vibrant visual experience for players and even helps attract new players to the game. 【Enhanced Dynamic Visual Proposals for Characters】: Running, flying, being knocked back, blinking, and a rich array of real-time facial expressions—character animations are no longer limited to basic swaying motions. Suggestions for Optimizing Level Camera Movements The camera switching logic for all levels in the current version is a direct pan from the left lawn to the zombie camp on the right. Despite the smooth transition curve of the camera animation, the overall presentation is rather monotonous and fails to deliver a more immersive visual experience for players. It is recommended that the subsequent versions retain the original basic camera path: after panning from the left lawn to the zombie camp on the right, the camera continues to extend a short distance to the right, presenting a broader scene view briefly to enhance the sense of space in the level. The card selection interface should pop up synchronously the moment the camera finishes panning right and starts panning back left immediately. Linking the card selection phase with the dynamic camera transition not only makes the interface pop-up more natural and smooth but also boosts players' operational immersion. The smooth transition curve of the camera animation in the current version should be retained. This is a better alternative to the current version, where the card selection interface only pops up after the camera movement is completely finished, resulting in a slow pacing. 【This feature can refer to Plants vs. Zombies 2 Chinese Server & International Server】 Optimization of Plant & Zombie Shadow Forms The shadows of plants and zombies are not only no longer simple oval shapes, but also presented in the form of silhouettes, supporting real-time dynamic changes. New Perspective Options It is recommended to provide three visual effect options for all game interfaces: "Ultra-high Perspective", "High Perspective", and "Low Perspective". Different players have different needs for the display of game screens: the high perspective allows players to obtain more comprehensive battlefield information, while the low perspective may focus more on local battles, meeting different strategic planning and visual preferences. Optimization of the "Achievements" Interface Each achievement icon is given a mirror effect covered by a glass window. Moreover, as the interface scrolls up and down, each achievement icon will realize real-time 3D changes in visual angle and real-time changes in the glass luster on the icon. In addition, the icon corresponding to each newly completed achievement will be endowed with a shining luster and then disappear, making it more vivid and interesting. Visual Optimization for Plants Transformed by the Transfiguration Eggplant Plants transformed by the Transfiguration Eggplant should not be given a gray appearance. Their visual effect should be consistent with other plants, as the inconsistent gray look can be disturbing for players with obsessive-compulsive tendencies. And I believe the current setting of inconsistent color schemes is already outdated. Plant/Zombie Slot Visual Optimization It is recommended to optimize the visual design of all plant slots and zombie slots. Instead of displaying the full-body appearance of plants or zombies, their partial facial close-ups should be used as the slot background. 【This feature can refer to the design of Plants vs. Zombies 2】 Plant Selection Interface Visual Optimization During the plant selection phase before a level starts, the following optimizations are suggested for the plant slot interface at the top of the screen: Always keep the original brown background removed. Design the empty, unselected slots into a thicker dashed line style. When a plant is selected, simultaneously display the plant’s attribute information and its corresponding animation effect. 【This feature can refer to the design of Plants vs. Zombies 2.】 Recommendations on Promoting Full-Platform Ecosystem Layout Currently, Huawei HarmonyOS Next boasts substantial market potential. It is recommended to advance the full-platform ecosystem layout in the following directions: Establish a cross-platform cloud data interconnection system to fully cover the following mainstream operating systems and devices, and achieve full-region availability on corresponding app stores: Apple Ecosystem: iOS, iPadOS, macOS, visionOS, tvOS – available on the Apple App Store in all regions; Huawei Ecosystem: HarmonyOS PC, HarmonyOS Mobile – available on Huawei AppGallery in all regions; Android Ecosystem: Android, Android TV – available on Android app stores such as Google Play and Amazon App Store in all regions; Microsoft Ecosystem: Windows x86, Windows x64, Windows Arm – available on platforms including but not limited to Microsoft Store and Steam. Core Value: By realizing real-time synchronization of data such as game progress, save files, and personalized settings, we eliminate barriers to device switching, create a seamless gaming experience for users, and further enhance user retention and brand competitiveness. Optimization of the "Achievements" Interface Each achievement icon is given a mirror effect covered by a glass window. Moreover, as the interface scrolls up and down, each achievement icon will realize real-time 3D changes in visual angle and real-time changes in the glass luster on the icon. In addition, the icon corresponding to each newly completed achievement will be endowed with a shining luster and then disappear, making it more vivid and interesting. Visual Optimization for Plants Transformed by the Transfiguration Eggplant Plants transformed by the Transfiguration Eggplant should not be given a gray appearance. Their visual effect should be consistent with other plants, as the inconsistent gray look can be disturbing for players with obsessive-compulsive tendencies. Level Victory Effects When all levels are cleared, all obstacles (such as tombstones, arcade machines, ice blocks, etc.) will automatically shatter and disappear. This keeps the game interface cleaner while bringing players a sense of victory achievement and visual satisfaction. At the moment of victory in regular levels, all plants on the field simultaneously enter a cheering mode. They convey the joy of victory through vivid gestures, allowing players to deeply immerse themselves in the scene and resonate emotionally. This effect is also adapted for the Versus Mode — the winning side celebrates enthusiastically, while the losing side shows a dejected and droopy look. The distinct emotional contrast enhances the immersive experience of the battle! Sunflower Visual Effect Optimization Adjust the orientation of the Sunflower's flower disc from facing forward to a slightly right-tilted style similar to the Marigold. This adjustment not only maintains visual coordination and unity between the two plants' flower disc orientations but also delivers a better overall visual experience. 【If you have trouble understanding the description, please refer to the attached images!】 Survival Mode Plant Visual Effect Optimization After completing the first round of battles in Survival Mode and Endless Mode, when the camera switches to the zombie camp on the right side of the lawn and the plant seed slot selection interface is active, plants must maintain dynamic effects at all times instead of appearing static. 【This feature can be referenced from Plants vs. Zombies 2.】 Optimization of Loading Interface Visual Effects The loading interface has been optimized to feature a dynamic effect in the original art style, where "the petals of the Marigold are plucked off one by one and then regenerated". The background remains pure white at all times, resulting in a more concise and unified visual experience. When entering the Zen Garden, 3 garden interfaces and 1 Wisdom Tree interface (a total of 4 interfaces) will be preloaded at one time. This can effectively avoid the problem of repeated interface loading in the current version and improve the entry efficiency and user experience. Optimization of Gold Coin Display Appearance In the current version, a money bag with a "US Dollar" icon is displayed next to the gold coins accumulated by the user. This may mislead users into thinking that these are real, withdrawable US Dollars. To prevent this situation, it is recommended to replace the money bag with the "US Dollar" icon with the stacked gold coins from the original mobile version of Plants vs. Zombies. Simplified operation logic of the main interface In the main interface, it is recommended to integrate “Mini Games", "Survival" and "Puzzle" into the "More Ways To Play" module, so that they can be accessed within this module. This will simplify the visual effect of the main interface. Additionally, there is a blinking regular zombie next to the tombstone and falling leaves. After clicking the "More Ways To Play" module, all level selection interfaces and dynamic effects should be consistent with those of the current version's "Adventure" and "Rest in Peace". 【This interface can refer to the mobile version of the original Plants vs. Zombies】 Optimization of the "Zombies" Module Display in the Almanac Currently, in the "Zombies" module of the almanac, the size and appearance of each zombie corresponding to the square button icons are uneven. Players with obsessive-compulsive tendencies find this quite uncomfortable. It is recommended to fully unify the size and appearance of each zombie corresponding to the square button icons, which can optimize the visual effect while eliminating the negative sense of disharmony. Optimization of Potted Plant Interaction Experience in Zen Garden In the Zen Garden, it is suggested that when watering a potted plant, the plant triggers a pleasant animation effect and immediately produces 6 Silver Coins the moment water is applied. Afterwards, you only need to use one of the following items on the potted plant: Fertilizer, Bug Spray, or Phonograph. Using any of these three items should also generate benefits instantly upon contact. In the current version, potted plants show no animation when watered, produce Silver Coins only after watering is completed, and require multiple watering sessions—this is quite cumbersome. Simplifying the operation not only saves time and effort but also makes the plants appear more lively and vivid! 【This feature can be referenced from Plants vs. Zombies 2 International Version】 Optimization Suggestions for Potted Plant Interaction in Zen Garden In the Zen Garden, for items such as the regular watering can, golden watering can, fertilizer, pesticide, and gramophone, no extra button clicks are required—simply move the item to the potted plant area to perform the corresponding action, streamlining the interaction steps. Optimize the display style of plant demand prompts: remove the white dialogue box and retain only the core demand icons, making the interface cleaner and demand information more intuitive. Add interactive animation effects for potted plants: triggering a pleasurable dynamic effect for the plant when watering it, applying fertilizer, using pesticide, or playing the gramophone. This enhances the interactive experience between players and potted plants, making the plants appear more vivid and lively. Adjust the watering reward mechanism: 6 silver coins are generated instantly upon watering, eliminating the need for repeated watering actions. After applying fertilizer, using pesticide, or playing the gramophone, the potted plant will brighten up to generate rewards while simultaneously triggering the pleasurable animation. This resolves the issues in the current version—no animation for watering, delayed silver coin generation, and tedious repeated operations—saving players' time and effort and optimizing the overall operational experience. 【This feature can refer to Plants vs. Zombies 2 International Version】 Expansion of Level Selection Interface Operation Logic in Adventure Mode It is suggested to add separate level selection interfaces for "First Playthrough" and "Second Playthrough" in the Adventure Mode level selection screen. Levels that have been successfully cleared should be permanently unlocked, instead of the current version where all levels except 1-1 are re-locked after completing Adventure Mode. The Rest in Peace mode can remain unchanged. However, we strongly dislike having the failure records of Rest in Peace mode saved, and we are even more worried about them being permanently stored! It is recommended to add an option to "Delete All Failed Clearance Records" in the "Clearance Records" section of Rest in Peace mode. Optimization of Sun Drop Movement Speed In all custom mode levels at present, the movement speed of falling suns remains constant, resulting in a monotonous visual effect. It is recommended that in future versions, the falling movement speed of "Normal-form Suns" and "Future World Explosive Suns" be optimized to a non-streamlined curve—specifically, adjusting the speed from fast to slow—to enhance the layering of animation effects. When players collect suns and fill the sun meter, the meter will flash once. 【This feature can refer to Plants vs. Zombies 3 (Chinese Server & International Server)】 Optimization of All-Scene Interfaces Stunning and realistic lighting effects have been added to all scenarios, including the main interface, level selection interface, in-level interface, and achievement interface. Additionally, the clouds in all scenes will gently drift with the wind, adding dynamic vitality. Lawn Terrain It has been optimized into a neat rectangular structure similar to the lawn in Plants vs. Zombies 2, composed of neatly arranged grids. The grids use green colors of different shades, forming an alternating pattern of light green and dark green, while maintaining the same color tone as the original version. The white fences beside the lawn maintain a uniform vertical shape, with evenly spaced gaps between each fence to avoid an uneven visual effect. Each white fence features a unique wood grain, preventing a "copy-pasted" appearance and creating an orderly and clean look overall. Pool Terrain The lawn part of the pool terrain is optimized into a neat rectangular structure similar to that in Plants vs. Zombies 2, made up of neatly arranged grids. These grids use green colors of different shades, forming an alternating pattern of light green and dark green, and retain the same color tone as the original version. The water in the pool part has a rippling effect as if blown by the wind. It is clear and transparent, allowing visibility of the水底 (bottom of the pool) which is composed of neatly arranged grids. These grids use blue colors of different shades, similar to the sea level in the "Big Wave Beach" scene from Plants vs. Zombies 2. Roof Terrain The left slope has a standard parallelogram structure, and the right flat part has a neat rectangular structure, both composed of neatly arranged tile grids. The grids are uniformly orange-red, with no cracks or other defects, and the overall color tone remains consistent with the original orange-red. Each tile grid is separated by dark orange-red lines. 【If you don't quite understand the content of the description, you can refer to the attached photo!】 II. Game Content Expansion Expansion of Coin Collection Methods in the Zen Garden After feeding chocolate to the snail Stinky in the Zen Garden, Stinky will continue to collect coins produced by the potted plants even if you exit the Zen Garden. When you return to the Zen Garden again, a line of text will appear: "While you were away, Stinky collected XXX coins!" This allows you to earn rewards without staying on the Zen Garden interface all the time, which is really nice! We also hope to obtain chocolate by watching ads—one chocolate per ad viewed. We strongly recommend implementing this suggestion! 【This feature can be referenced from the original mobile version of Plants vs. Zombies】 Due to the word count limit, the following feedback content can be referred to in the comment section.

Suggestion: In-game workshop
Now, the only reason I think an in-game workshop would be better than the Steam Workshop is that only Steam players can use the Steam Workshop, whereas an in-game workshop would allow players on every platform to access and enjoy it. Not to mention the fact that this would prolong the games lifespan by years if not decades.36Views1like0Comments
VS Mode still needs to be adjusted
This is from a PvZ tuber called Xplodin Apple and he still encounters A lot of the issues that still remains https://youtu.be/LtnhsyHFRes?si=r64PtZ7JOJFPq5cR The person that gets put on the Zombie side gets SO many more brainz compared to the Plant side which struggles to get enough Sun for a Sunflower. At the end of 1 match in this video the Zombies finish with 4,000+ Brainz (also seen reported by other people the Plants do also have a "broken" method by spamming 0 cost sunshrooms but if the Plants side needs to resort to that to even have a fighting chance then there is a bit of a balancing issue) Hypno'd Zombies still eat Gravestones So PLEASE for Patch 1.6.0 fix the VS Mode its really the only other major mode in Replanted Id say really needs fixing left But on a positive note the person that plays on the Zombies in 1 match spawned a Disco Zombie and 1 of the back up dancers the Disco Zombie spawned was the original Back up dancer back when the Disco Zombie looked Alot more like Michael Jackson. Id asked could you keep that in (im talking about Disco Zombie spawning in OG Back up Dancers) and make it an Easter egg to me that be a nice little reference to people who've been a fan of the series since the VERY beginningSurvival Fog Endless restarts itself when I reenter the level
I had a good run going on survival fog endless, but I got a new zen garden plant that I wanted to check out, so I exited the level and went to the zen garden, and then went back to the level after some time. When I enter the level though, the game displays a buggy image (the image attached) for less than a second, reloads, and then my entire defense is gone, and I’m back to flag 1. I’ve been able to consistently replicate this bug, starting at flag 20. It is specifically survival endless fog as well, since I was able to get to flag 100 in endless pool just fine, and flag 50 in endless night as well. Playing on switch 2 on version 1.5. Is there some sort of fix I can do? I would like for the devs to atleast see this post, since I haven’t seen any other posts talking about this.Hey EA team, add these ideas to PVZR

Suggestion: In-game workshop
Now, the only reason I think an in-game workshop would be better than the Steam Workshop is that only Steam players can use the Steam Workshop, whereas an in-game workshop would allow players on every platform to access and enjoy it. Not to mention the fact that this would prolong the games lifespan by years if not decades.VS Mode still needs to be adjusted
This is from a PvZ tuber called Xplodin Apple and he still encounters A lot of the issues that still remains https://youtu.be/LtnhsyHFRes?si=r64PtZ7JOJFPq5cR The person that gets put on the Zombie side gets SO many more brainz compared to the Plant side which struggles to get enough Sun for a Sunflower. At the end of 1 match in this video the Zombies finish with 4,000+ Brainz (also seen reported by other people the Plants do also have a "broken" method by spamming 0 cost sunshrooms but if the Plants side needs to resort to that to even have a fighting chance then there is a bit of a balancing issue) Hypno'd Zombies still eat Gravestones So PLEASE for Patch 1.6.0 fix the VS Mode its really the only other major mode in Replanted Id say really needs fixing left But on a positive note the person that plays on the Zombies in 1 match spawned a Disco Zombie and 1 of the back up dancers the Disco Zombie spawned was the original Back up dancer back when the Disco Zombie looked Alot more like Michael Jackson. Id asked could you keep that in (im talking about Disco Zombie spawning in OG Back up Dancers) and make it an Easter egg to me that be a nice little reference to people who've been a fan of the series since the VERY beginningSurvival Fog Endless restarts itself when I reenter the level
I had a good run going on survival fog endless, but I got a new zen garden plant that I wanted to check out, so I exited the level and went to the zen garden, and then went back to the level after some time. When I enter the level though, the game displays a buggy image (the image attached) for less than a second, reloads, and then my entire defense is gone, and I’m back to flag 1. I’ve been able to consistently replicate this bug, starting at flag 20. It is specifically survival endless fog as well, since I was able to get to flag 100 in endless pool just fine, and flag 50 in endless night as well. Playing on switch 2 on version 1.5. Is there some sort of fix I can do? I would like for the devs to atleast see this post, since I haven’t seen any other posts talking about this.Hey EA team, add these ideas to PVZR
