I miss Zen garden where you plant just to plant, not for a boost to use in the game, simply a plant. You water it, apply fertiliser and apply pesticides. And different scenes, I remember each of them cost a fortune to unlock! Woah, and the Tree of Wisdom also. So nostalgic.
I'm not sure how many people plant for the boost unless they're still progressing through adventure or they're trying the harder penny's pursuit difficulties. What I miss is when you could put down a plant and get some money from it and the plant boost. Gave me a real reason to not keep planting until all I got were marigolds
They removed it?
you guys don't like planting plants for the boost????
why?!?!? its the best way to win a penny persuit level plus zen garden in pvz1 is boring although its very chill but still kinda useless yes i know you can farm coins though survival endless and minigames does the job wayyy better........
@@SNOW-xf7jy well I just like the uselessness of it. that’s why it’s called Zen Garden
@@arphicwong3819 fair opinion i respect it,
i do have to say its Super relaxing and calm💗💗
Even though I would have hated it, I support the idea of a dark ages expansion/extra stage epic quest, simply because I want to see more levels to dark ages, 20 just won’t cut it!!
wasn't there a sprite there with imps that seemed like they're buildin' lvls
@@creashaksorganzine0 that was before they added magnet shroom, magnet shroom was basically the expansion
I like that there was not more dark ages levels night time is horrible to do
Yep, but not with that poorly made Castlehead and Veteran Wizard, it would be a lot better a fully armored Knight or similar
Same
I’m sad scaredy shroom never returned. He was neat, not the most powerful, or unique, but was pretty adorable
Edit: welp, he’s back. Though his redesign is pretty weird. Since puff and fume, hypno, sun and magnet shroom barley changed, and scaredy looks different compared to his older model. And if course he’s a plant you have to try and unlock through non normal means. Pretty sure sea shroom is next to return, since there are videos showing his unfinished state.
I'M DEVASTED THAT SCAREDY-SHROOM NEVER RETURNED. YET. I'M SURE HE WILL COME IN EXPANSION LEVELS OF THE DARK AGES, ALONG WITH VETERAN WIZARD, CASTLEHEAD ZOMBIE, TAVERN BARREL ZOMBIE, GRAVEDROPPER ZOMBIE, DARK WIZARD ZOMBIE, CALVALRY RIDER ZOMBIE, BLACKSMITH ZOMBIE, AND KNIGHT OF THE LVING DEAD SOMETIME IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
@@tysonac3174 eventually maybe. Since he made appearances in gw 1 and 2. I’m just dissatisfied that we got garlic of all og plants and not scaredy shroom
Scaredy shroom would probably be suck in PvZ 2 anyway
@@THGMR-ox7sd Scaredy Shroom already sucks. He’s the worst plant in the original Plants Vs. Zombies. In Day levels, you basically have to give him a Coffee Bean to be a medium-range Peashooter who gets scared when zombies get close.
@@danialtarki572 scardey shoot has full range, also obviously he is best in night levels just like all of the nocturnal plants
Sungun was used for magnifying grass for a way in the end
Thanks bro for always catching my new videos really appreciate it
Pretty sure Sun Gun is a plant version of the Turquoise Skull
You tipped grass, not glass
@@solder_pro621 because that's the plant's name
@@LohStorm ups. Sorry
Some info about a few unused plants in this video:
Mini Peashooter (from what I remember) is the same as a peashooter, but for its plant food, it covers the entire lawn (that isn’t already occupied) with clones of itself.
Burnade has the same sprite as the Iceberg Lettuce, and might’ve been one of the most overpowered plants in the game if fully added. From what I remember, it explodes about 3 times, in a 3x3 area.
EVEN MORE INFO ABOUT THESE:
Mini peashooter have chances
So mini pea doesnt always take over the entire screen
some times he just create 2,4 or even more
And something interesing but hard to explain is his multiplication system
Lets say
you put 1 plantfood to peashooter and it makes another right?
well if you put a plantfood in the new cloned peashooter it create 2 news
And make the same
Like
X1, x2, x4, x8.. etc
And it deals a mediocre amount of damage
Burnade in the other hand
It makes damage based on zombie health, so basically a garg is a teal bomb but reduced to 3x3
Also burnade sends zombies to the first column of the right side
Bro that would be op a 25 sun peashooter with a slightly worse pf effect?
Burnade is just injustice
I had a hacked free shop version, and they were there along side with unused bacon trophie. and I can confirm it
I believe that originally, they planned to have gravestones in all worlds, that's why the Grave Buster is always selectable in any world, even if that world has no gravestones on it, unless it's a Last Stand level.
It would have made him more useful than just 3 worlds
@@memor22 Tomb Tangler could be good if they planned to add gravestones to all world, yet he is the worst plant yet
But hot potato is available in all worlds too
@lukewhite-cg4cy before the time she wasn't available on other world, she can't be picked on other world but only iceberg
The far future early version theme somehow sparks a lot of nostalgia for me. I felt like a real OG
Me too :')
Ok but to be real the first seconds for the old far future music sounds like some one is pressing buttons and an alarm is going off
@@dominikk302 Yeah
same
It lowkey goes hard and sounds a better then the one they have for it now
Correction: Modern Day was not originally going to have zombies from every world like it does in the final game. That mechanic was originally intended for Time Twister, however during development Time Twister and Modern Day were merged.
No, the video got it right.
Source: Was literally there when the datamining was happening for Modern Day. Literally saw the files that didn't reference any sort of merger (nothing planned for Time Twister was used in Modern except "every zombie ever")
@@SnoFitzroy Time Twister literally has a world icon that was reused for Penny's Pursuit. Not everything about a game's development is documented within its files.
@@SnoFitzroyi am PRETTY SURE the portals were from time twister
Interestingly, the Castlehead Zombie has shown up in a couple ads over the years, most recently for a Dark Ages themed Penny’s Pursuit where it’s just slapped onto an image with some other zombies sprites
2:50 just to add to the unused scardy shroom, there were also beta versions of both puff shroom and sun shroom, basically using the pvz 1 sprites and identically the same as said game
huh
?@@JustCallMeHeavy
Those extra gravestones and minecarts could have been intended to appear in an event or pinata level, like having some of them take place in different times with those features so it wouldn't just be the egypt and modern day graves and the only minecart in the game
Honestly when barrel zombie is added into mods he looks so weird
They definitely had a different plan for him maybe in that theater section in dark ages the Chinese version has
He'd be like a crazed Shakespeare guy
He maybe was a event zombie
Like cleopatra but im not sure if cleopatra was a event zombie either,
Since the code have unused level names like egypt - event {NUMBER_LEVEL} i think thats
Also it can be a weak version or stronger version of pharaoh
honestly, not making Marigold a plant you can use in levels i think was a good call since she was...pretty much useless in the 1st game especially with how late she was obtained
I use her in endless to unlock parts of zen garden
well in PvZ 2 I think you always have Marigold unlocked in the almanac so you could use it from the start I think or at least when you unlocked zen garden but EA being EA
I think if they released a dark ages expansion they would also release expansions for the rest of the worlds that don't have expansions.
There are veteran zombossmech for every world so they maybe wanted to
@@mathiasmaidana3068 so why don’t they it’ll be cool to see new zombies for arena
@@lunerg775 they got cancelled due to being a confusion trip for new players
Its some hard to explain but basically
After you beated egypt zombot there where the expansion levels right?
Well beginners thinked it was still a adventure mode and make angry comments in google play
After some months these got deleted and later added again as a epic quest
@@mathiasmaidana3068 but why can’t they just make more of these for epic quest
@@mathiasmaidana3068 actually nvm we got penny’s pursuit
The funny thing about this is as of this comment, the Scaredy shroom isn’t considered a scrapped PVZ 2 plant and was newly re-added to he game by using seed packets.
1:43 there are also gravestones for Mixtape tour thing and Jurassic marsh
There are ALSO more unused zombies
For dark ages:
Dark_dravedropper
When he reached a plant, he would slam it with a tombstone and spawn one
and he also did have a armor of a gravestone
dark_knight
A buckethead with the same ability of the parasol, Like a upgrade of blacksmith
Dark_blacksmith
A dark king but even more weak
at some point, his anvil would break and act like a common zombie
imp variants
conehead, buckethead and crown
There would be armor variants for dark ages imp, but went unused
Dark_wizard
Before, he would shoot a ball which dealed damage if im not wrong
Lost city:
lostcity_totem_dropper
It drops a totem, if the totem stacks to 3 a egypt explorer spawned (most likely a placeholder) but got deleted
some differences from some updates
Before far future update, Future garg was more smaller
There wasnt a peasant knighthead, king zombie and jester zombie before 1.6.2 of pvz2
There are also unknow grids, called futurespaceshift
And futureclone
The first isnt know what could've made
The second, maybe cloned zombies, but also is unknow
I left out some of the placeholders and zombies that were just warly versions of existing ones like the blacksmith which turned to the zombie king
@@koalapvz but gravedropper wasnt a placeholder
Same with imps, totem_dropper and some
There are also beta, unused and dleted levels but yeah
Gravedropper seems like an early version of Surfer Zombie.
Y como puedes comprobar que tambien habían lápidas para el pantano Jurásico
@@juniurscrc9392 mirándo los archivos del juego
No cuesta tanto
Damn Graves in Lost City would have been so cool and fit in really well.
I remembered before that I'm so excited for the Time Twister as the final world only to be devastated by it to turned into an online mode
7:11 this slaps! Idk why it didn't make it into the game it's honestly better then what we got
Jokes on you the scaredy shroom is now in pvz2
Cool guy211 Bruh this video was made before scardy shroom dumbass
There's an unused map of Far Future in old map style hidden in 1.5 files
is that FrontLawnFarFutureStage variant
@@popplinoexe8970 hes talking about global map or world map
And there isnt such frontlawnfarfuture lawn
It is the default far future lawn propetiers but with different textures before ff
@@popplinoexe8970 hes talking about global map or world map
And there isnt such frontlawnfarfuture lawn
It is the default far future lawn propetiers but with different textures before ff
The unused music is strangely uncanny. It sent shivers down my spine.
i think the reason why is because of the empty lawns on the background, it would be real unsettling walking through those places with the unused music playing in the background, knowing that some zombie could come out of nowhere and just eat your brains.
The far future song sounds way better than the final version
The potential! So much content down the DRAIN bro! Still a grade S game that shall always have a place in our hearts. Also, what is your favorite PVZ 1 or 2 plant? Mine is Doom Shroom.
My favourite plant has always been Hypno-shroom since the PvZ1 days. Doom shroom is pretty epic though
@@koalapvz nice, hypno shroom is OP when plant fooded and in PVZ1, hypnotising All Star was always the best use for him.
@@franciscofreeland-gonzalez1991 All of those are incredible and Cattail should be in PVZ2 International! (I feel ripped off)
@@franciscofreeland-gonzalez1991 No, there is Homing Thistle and I have it as a matter of fact, its just that it's nothing like the OG Cattail, surely you can agree
@@franciscofreeland-gonzalez1991 Even though he isnt as good as my boy Cattail, he is still usable and I even put him in my loadout often. Oh and I wonder when Nightcap will be put in the game, he has been teased ever since Bramble Bush was released.
there's also an unused theme meant for Pirate Seas composed by the original PVZ composer Laura
and the plant "Beet" from PVZ Adventures was meant to return same with the Adventures version of Bamboo shot (tho functionally it's just an early Banana Launcher)
Laura dipped during the EA acquisition basically
can’t really blame her though her music lives on somewhat with Ancient Egypts Wave 1 theme
The mtv parody was probably not added for copyright reasons, keep in mind, they got sued for Michael Jackson zombie in pvz1
The burnade accually had a sprite which was the iceberg lettuce's sprite but yk it was removed
The Mini Peashooter has two main differences from a regular Peashooter. 1. It's weaker and costs less and 2. It's power up is to clone itself one tie ahead
Great video dude! A Dark Ages expansion would've been something I might've skipped if I did a casual playthrough LOL.
2:32
Ok I swear to god
I remember actually using Marigold as an actual plant at some point-
Pvz 1
Pvz 2 zen garden
reminds me of the gw2 shiny marigold
GUYS SCARDY SHROOM WILL BE ADDED IN THE NEXT ULDATE IN PVZ2 ALONG WITH SEA SHROOM!
Power Lily has a hidden plant food ability and Imitater has a zen garden animation
using plant food on a plant that gives plant food is a bit counter productive don’t you think
@@jess648Maybe it would activate the plant food effect of several random plants on-screen instead of producing plant food when given one?
Burnade actually uses iceburg lettuces sprites. Heres the stats (levels do nothing to unused plants)
BURNADE
Sun Cost: 0
Recharge: Sluggish
Ability: Sends a zombie back to the beginning of the lawn, and shortly explodes doing the same damage as the zombie it killed.
Plant food: Allows burnade to use his ability 3 times before dissapearing.
MINIPEASHOOTER
Sun Cost: 25
Recharge: Fast
Ability: Shoots peas, they take 25 shots to kill a basic zombie. (Normal peas take 10)
Plant Food: Duplicates more minipeashooters in its own lane, or, if space is availible, the entire lawn?? (Its inconsistant)
They are both usable using hacks. Ill post a vid soon.
Hmm, that Ice Currant looks...familiar ;)
Anyways, this was a very interesting video. I might as well subscribe!
Really appreciate it :D
I don't get why tf gold leaf needs to be expensive when it's awful.
I swear to you that scaredy shroom made it into dark ages at some point
I would have liked Scaredy Shroom since he is my second favorite plant while Ice Shroom is my favorite. Although the future music was cool too and has a lot of the final sound affects. Pretty cool.
Came back to this vid in 2023 with the current version of PvZ2... looks like Scaredy-Shroom isn't a shelved project anymore.
if you use a special obb you can get most of these cut things, like dark_wizard_veteran zombie.
i dont exactly remember where, but i remember hearing that the reason DA is so empty compared to the other worlds is that a lot of the team at popcap left mid development
I love how PvZ Reflourished brings back some of these like the barrel zombie and such
I noticed that the scrapped BFN iceberg lettuce uses the Chinesse exclusive ice chain plant's design instead of the actual iceberg lettuce
For some reason, I might planned to add some of the unused content in my Future PvZ 2 Mod lol
Still a shame tho that Some of these didn't make it to the final game :
The unused music should have been in the infinite modes
there's no need to add them. they are just unfinished versions of the current soundtracks
Scaredy-shroom (and sea-shroom) ARE BACK!!!
2:13 if they add that zombie on the right would make it annoying.
your icon looks like its hella surprised, but i can see the koala.
That Far Future Music is a bop
I wish they would included the wild west unused track it sounds like it's high noon and someone going die tonight.
The Ztv flag should be a rare Easter egg variation of the neon mixtape tour flag zombie that would just be really rare kinda like the in the original game a zombie would occasionally wave its hand in the air after dying
the unused far future music is amazing
They could add some of these unused zombies, plants, music, etc. In a new world with world map pieces to indicate what world they will be going to.
I really hate the fact that they made the expansion levels as epic quest
Also the removed gargantuar and zomboss podiums and the ultimate battle music and mini game music
There's also an unused version of Pirate Seas shown in one of the Crazy Dave Transmission videos that released before the game came out. Laura Shigihara released the track on her CZcams channel 2-3 years ago
Hey your videos are really great btw! You seem like one the game pros so I have a question, I saw there was some upcoming sports themed Lawnbowl something event going to happen in the game and what happened to it, is that also unused now?
That event is on right now, go to the adventure mode and you should see an all star zombie icon next to the travel log icon. That's where all thymed events are.
The event is in the game for some users, it is just a bug for some people not getting access to the events
Also I don't have access to the lawn bowl and backyard big top events and missed out on it
I think it would be cool if their was a farm based world with zombies holding pitchforks and farm animals helping the zombies like the dinosaurs in jurassic marsh
I don't like how you didn't add the plant food effect of the other plants, like if you plant fooded burnade, it would've been usable 3 times instead of 1. Zoom-shroom also would pull every zombie to it's lane if plant fooded.
either way, nice vid.
I swear I remember grave buster having a plant food ability. I think it was when powered up it would have 2 more bust other graves kinda like potato mine. I don't know, might be the Mandela effect
Video was great, but could have used some background music.(also mute the pvz2 audio)
There’s a cut song I believe for Pirate Seas developed by the same composer for the entirety of the PVZ1 soundtrack and the Ancient Egypt. You can find it on her channel.
Yeah I know about that one, I just wasn't sure if adding it to the video would cause copyright concerns since its already on her channel..
Now finally THIS is a good pvz CZcamsr
"Why couldn't they translate it over' (from the chinese version of pvz2)
they actually have an agreement with popcap, that the west can NOT legally take any elements from the chinese version which makes such a massive tangled web of random ideas they aren't entirely sure if they can take
Fun fact scary shroom is in the game😊
You said scary not scardy
@@Kill_scavyshis redesign scares me
This video aged TOO badly.
so scaredy returned
I remember when I was a kid clicking that one dimension rift thingy at the end of the worlds and it doing nothing.
The spikeweed plant food unused effect is actually found in pvz all stars when it attacks. And yes pvz allstars is Chinese only...
I ain’t kidding but I remember finding a hacked version of PvZ2 and it was completely hacked with infinite currency but also there was plants that were usable (unused plants) but they didn’t work or acted like a normal version of the plant
Also there was planned mini peashoter and burnade.But in finale version these 2 plants wasnt been added
does anyone remember how there were 36 levels in ancient Egypt instead of 25?
if i had to guess i would assume that a good theory for why scaredy shroom wasnt added in pvz 2 is because in dark ages sun production is easier than pvz 1 night levels and since the jester zombie exists it would make no since to added scaredy shroom especially when the dark ages chapter was only 20 levels and there where alot of other useable plants such as peashooter and cabbage pult and repeater and laser bean and bloomerang just to name a few and also we are forgetting that puff shroom and laser bean and non projectile plants where required in dark ages because of the jester zombie and theres also the wizard zombie which is just a weaker version of the #1 Voted Most Annoying Zombie and also dark ages as a whole is just a weird chapter in terms of balance since the chapter is actually easy with the right setup and since the jester zombie can force players the alter there entire setup all just because of him and puff shroom and laser bean are good in this the scaredy shroom wouldnt have any where to be in, in terms of balance and in other levels the scaredy shroom would just be a cheaper and weaker peashooter and this is assuming that the scaredy shroom is cheaper and that it still has the hiding mechanic and since the scaredy shroom doesnt make sense for dark ages and plants vs zombies 2 meta and balance then i think that the scaredy shroom would not be that good and since most pvz 2 players dont even use peashooters anymore now since the game now has a level up system for plants and theres alot of premium plants and plants unlockable via and during arena tournament seasons but around the time dark ages was released there where already the far future and wild west and pirate seas and ancient Egypt there where already alot of good plants
also the Chinese version of pvz2 dark ages had a jousting zombie that had a horse and it was a knight zombie on a horse that worked like the zombie bull or rodeo legend zombie except that the jousting zombie would launch it self all the way to the end of your lawn right next to your lawnmower and it was a knight zombie and the zombie would leave its sword in the ground where ever the horse launched him at and the sword would act like the same way that the surf board dropped by the surfer zombie in big wave beach does and this would mean that there would be a knight zombie right next to lawnmower or end of lawn (if they used there lawnmower) and a horse zombie and a sword stuck in the ground all for the player to deal with meaning that if it where in the game and it was also in the games Chinese version then it would be very weak of a plant
Also Another Thing, The Scaredy Shroom Appeared In Plants VS Zombies All Stars which was also a Chinese Exclusive plants vs zombies game
scaredy shroom also appears in plants vs zombies adventures and garden warfare 1 and garden warfare 2 and battle for NeighbourVille i think
This feels wierd to see the cut world stuff as now it’s readded to the files also I hope we get more adventure worlds
i remember scaredy shroom in the pvz 1, it was used as a long range like a peashooter, but like pvz2 cactus, is scared when a zombie comes close
Dark ages expansion is coming
Don't mind me, just going through your earlier stuff.
some mods like the reflourished mod have some unused stuff added back, like the castle-head zombie
Update:
-The dark veterans where added to the game, but only their sprites, they werent added to any official level if im not wrong
-they added textures for iceage Fossil head, but not propertiers, strangely, he has the required animations to play just fine
I would definitely enjoy using Icy Currant in PVZ 2, however, it can also be accessed on PVZ 2 Chinese version which I also often play
4:20 - 4:34 Spikeweeds plant food was originally going to made zombies EXPLODE
i still remember last time u need to complete every world lvl 8 to get a world key
then they changed it to just ancient Egypt with all keys unlocked
but now
u need to kill every world zomboss before moving to the next
The old music just sounds scary
Once i hacked pvz2 to get everything and also got the minipeashooter and the burnade. The minipeashooter was just carpetbombed the whole map with peashooters
The scaredy shroom makes a return now in plants vs zombies 2
I thought Scaredy-shroom was reworked into the shadow peashooter
That far future theme is so nostalgic idk why they changed it
I have the 2r sun minipeashooter. I hacked the game into thinking that i had unlocked everything, and it gave me that. I also had a plant called Burnade, i think it would be like an iceberg lettuce crossed with hurrikale. The minipeashooter is very strange in the way it behaves
Did you know the unused plant food effect on spik weed is in PvZ : All Stars same for Scardry Shroom and the firs unsed Cleopatra zombie in the video.
1:39 I assume they would have been used for later levels in endless zones or in quests maybe?? idk
dark ages expansion is coming tho
as well as frostbite caves
Scaredy shroom could work similar to cactus but instead of dps when a zombies is close he will hide becoming a defensive plant.
or he will shoot faster the closer the zombie is (×1.5 in 5 tiles) (×2 in 3 tiles) (×2.5 in 2 tiles), like he's panicking or something like that. He will cost 175 sun and will boing the zombie if the zombie reached him (only 1 time).
This age well
Scardey shroom is back by a year soon
GUESS WHAT,TODAY SCAREDY SHROOM ENTERED PVZ 2 LESS GOOOOO
What the hell- didnt like all the world had extra lvls- and a extra boss stages-
Update: Scaredy Shroom is now available in PvZ2. They added it like a few weeks ago.
Epic New Sub
I think far future wave 1 just feels nostalgic
I remember the old pvsz2 theme lmao such nostalgia when there where just 3 worlds
when i first played pvz2, it had the scrapped tutorial level sadly when I revisited it and reset the game, it was lost in history
@KoalaAM wasn’t there also a time where if you gave ice pea a plant food while behind a torchwood, the frozen peas would turn into sun?
More unused content
Bloomerang was meant to stun zombies with his projectiles
Unused plant: Beet from PvZA and sprout leaked from NMT side b dev diary
Unused music
DA W1, MWA and B early version
NMT early raps
Modern day MWB and FW early track
