This is honestly some of the most fun I've ever had. It's deceptively deep but I never get frustrated with it.

I feel like if they could have gotten this out before Xmas it would've killed. For that matter, if they had bundled it with the xbox One for 499 it would have flown off shelves.

My full match Team Vanquish CPM is just shy of 900 now. First match with the All Star netted me Lightning Vanquish, Vanquish Streak and Most Vanquishes. I didn't die TV needed to have a CPM lead on G&G because of the down time so it feels about right now. Will have to play some more to get a better feel for the changes. Hope it's the first of many balance changes to come.

thinking about picking up the game but am a bit concerned the community wont last Titanfall.
how dumb/realistic is this?

It's "dumb" in presentation, but the mechincs and shooting feels quite good and is fun. Think TF2.

Yeah, the game is a blast. I'm loving it, and really impressed with its depth, how it plays, and how it looks. Kudos to Popcap.

so do the different classes provide enough teamwork that people might conceivably stay with this game even past titanfall? because that seemed like your typical COD where everyone goes lone wolf. i just dont wanna plunk down 40 dollars on something that might be dead. really wish there was a demo

 

[Rambo20]

Whats everyone's recommendations for buying sticker packs. What ones should I be typically buying?

 

[Freeser]

Thanks! I'm not 100% sure what would be involved with patching in new control schemes, but we're looking into it right now.

Awesome. Thanks for the reply!

I usually go for the 20k stuff, since I get a mix of character pieces and rare items and consumables along with x7 or x5 challenge skip cards

my favorite accessory unlock so far:

That's amazing

 

[OdysseusVA]

my favorite accessory unlock so far:

Second only to the Shark hat Still need to unlock it though

 

[sangreal]

How do you use the challenge skip cards? I have a bunch and some really obnoxious challenges but no clue how they work

 

[Nyteshade517]

When you're in a match you can press Menu to open the pause screen. It should be on the right hand side with what button to press to use the skips.

ah, cool, thanks

I hope the coin rates are 'fixed' soon, playing without that bonus feels like a waste of time now.

Maybe 2k coins for a team dm game was too much, at least middle ground it to 1250 or something, same with completion money for GvG.

Is it even going to be 'fixed'?

 

[Kyzon]

What the hell is this peashooter shit? I just played a few matches with him to lvl it up to 5. This thing is a monster! I wrecked everything on screen O___O

yeah, I'm actually surprised a peashooter nerf wasnt included in that balance update. My favorite plant to play as though

Yup. Great main weapon, good speed, chilli bean bomb is way to strong (blast radius is too high too).

I think he did get a little weaker, his pea splash was doing 9's instead of 10 and his direct hits were doing 25 when I am sure they would do 30+ before, maybe i'm wrong.

dont think so unless they changed it since i took these screens around 12 hours ago

Great Game

thx PopCap for making me fall in love with competitive Multiplayer again. Just finished the last Achievement.

Wow that was fast. Well done.
Plants are getting hit pretty hard in G&G. The global win rate would be an interesting stat. Managed to unlock the fire Cactus. It's pretty good.

Could you expand on the depth that you are seeing in the game? Possibly give an example or two?

Thanks.

 

[Diablohead]

Win and end of game bonuses seem to be up to better levels again.

 

[polyh3dron]

Is anyone else here on XBOne getting disconnected midgame routinely?

 

[bidguy]

Win and end of game bonuses seem to be up to better levels again.

would you happen to have any numbers ? i got 3000 completion bonus for a g&g match today is it higher now ?

 

[Valkrai]

Got the 360 version of the game today but how is it compared to the Xbone version?

 

[EazyWeazy3]

I'm guessing he is referring to the fact that there aren't very many game modes but within each class, there are numerous other versions of that class with different appearances, different weapons, and different power-ups like more ammo capacity.

The packs offer a bunch of things from planted pots, zombies, weapons, appearances and character pieces.

It really is a fun game and I am glad I bought it. I've had a good amount of fun playing it and never find myself getting frustrated or mad while playing.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

are we going to get new maps or a survival mode as zombies?

please make it so-

those are some good points. thanks for the reply.

how do you use the weapons that have been unlocked? anyone explain the process? maybe a link or vid.

thanks

 

[MrBlonde]

Great game, enjoying it way more then I thought I would. Great job with this balance update other then not reducing the pea shooter chili bean blast radius. Loving the 2k completion coin bonus for tdm now. I think I'm sticking with 20k packs for now, so much to unlock and I mostly want all the weapon upgrades. Would love to get some characters but I have trouble saving for the 40k packs

 

[bidguy]

those are some good points. thanks for the reply.

you cant unlock weapons.
you unlock class variants for example count chompula is a chomper variant and gains health with every attack

theres also a ice pea shooter or an acid pea shooter, an engineer with an electro grenade launcher and stuff like that.

 

[MarshMellow96]

Sticking to Garden Ops for the time being. Every human enemy seems to be a bullet sponge compared to me and I'm getting shot around corners.

 

[bidguy]

did anyone actually unlock a weapon skin ? im starting to think they dont exist

 

[Outtrigger888]

I'm still getting 2k a game for TDM

I am in love with titanfall however I will still be playing PVZ to balance out titanfall. PVZ is just really fun and a different feel so anyone that likes it will need that itch scratched regularly I think =)

I just got one for the scientist, "gold", who I never play :/

thanks for the correction. how do I selexct the character variants?

 

[Diablohead]

I know vanquish used to give +750 on a win, now its 2000.

GvG seems to vary depending on things like time, players and how far you get but it seems to be more.

same issues here

Give it to meee, my favourite class.

 

[bidguy]

just press left or right when highlighting the class you want

 

[Jedi Otter]

So, I can't find info on this anywhere, sorry in advance, but is there no way to link an existing Origin ID to the Xbox One version? I'd really rather not have to create ANOTHER account...

 

[mbmonk]

thank you very much

I unlocked that. It's my favourite too.

 

[Nori Chan]

I was against major Nelson and treit and true of the xbox team and we won against them. Also I FINALLY GOT THE two rocket kill achievement after 46 leveles. Finally lol

Also they beat us in G&G and he has a game clip of the huge sunflower falling lol

 

[pelican]

Plenty of room for both games.

I'm getting TF, but I will still play PvZ.

 

[FairXchange]

Is anyone else here on XBOne getting disconnected midgame routinely?

Yep, I asked yesterday and no one in here answered but it's been happening to me. Somewhat relieved to know it's not my internet then, but this just means EA has to fix this shit asap.
