Just last Sunday, the EA community manager posted on EA forums that they are trying to gather some evidence on Garden Warfare’s recent surge to send to their higher ups which will hopefully bring back attention to the series! I’ll put up the link on the description but this is great news because there’s someone willing to fight for this in the company It’s of course no guarantee of anything or that it’ll get anywhere but I’m sure every bit of help from players count!
Just this has finally helped me decide that if this ever takes traction, I would 100% preorder whatever comes from it. No questions asked. I'm glad to hear this.
@@Gordonizon these people who dont know how to play will say, "ep is the best character in the game", imo he is good but his dps is so bad that agent pea easily is better
You know it’s strange because about 3 or 4 days ago I have a itch and gone back to it, without knowing there was more player. Gw2 is honestly quite good of a game, it’s quite charming.
Dude If we got a PvZ GW3 with a BIGGER singleplayer map and more classes, new three plants, nerfing the toxic brainz, (i dont like nut, snapdragon, Moviestar, etc). God theres still SOOO much potential
@@abrainlessfish4139 tbh i don’t want gw3 as there’s no way they can make it be what gw2 was to gw1. gw2 was so good that there is simply no way they can one-up it with a new game without it just feeling like gw2 with some updates
The plant vs zombie community, from each game is surprisingly so loyal and dedicated. From their biggest game garden warfare to the most obscure games like plant vs zombies heroes. Which is insane considering that EA has basically given up at this point with this franchise
I think that GW3 should keep the mechanics and feel of GW2 but also add in the new characters and a similar hub system that BFN has including the character variants and fan favorite maps
Definitely a good idea. While BFN is by far my favourite, I can't deny its flaws, nor can I deny the flaws of the other 2 games. The ideal would be probably to combine the positives of all the 3 games. The bigger question is whether or not the Trials of Gnomus characters should return? Hovergoat is cool but I will admit even as a former Torchwood player, Torchwood did sometimes feel super unfair. And another thing is what to do with the GW1 and GW2 characters, do we keep their GW2 abilities or do we endorse the BFN abilities? Or do we combine the ability lineups of both games?
@@SaxtonGaming1401i say they nerf Torchwood and his abilities and make him a super rare character then give him variants, they just have nerf/balance Torchwood
Bro this is so good. Also as someone who plays on PlayStation the team vanquish and turf takeover servers are alive but it’s harder to find servers on other game modes sadly.
Yes, this is true... The only game-modes that are playable today in PvZ GW2 are only Team vanquish and Turf takeover. There is zero chance to find a lobby full of players in other game modes like Gnome bomb ! ((P.S: I also play the game on PlayStation 4 so I'm just comfirming what you say))
Turf i find isnt too bad, if youre playing in the UK, sometimes its better to try to North American servers. I find mixed mode is well populated compared to how it was a couple years ago
As someone who has loved pvz my whole life and has played garden warfare for 10 years I'm so happy for this. This game will always have a special place in my heart and i just hope that flame will never burn out and that the game could be saved and brought back to the life like it deserves.
garden warfare 1 might have the kind of visuals you would enjoy if you played the tower defense games alot since it bases itself in the same universe as pvz 1, just in places never seen before, aswell as the issues with servers in garden warfare 2, the servers were constantly degraded through the years due to a lower player count.
GW2 did kill itself for me once I couldn't bring my PS4 progress over to PC because I had literally played the game for 4 years, so you would imagine that I would want my free twilight chomper, legendary characters and the secret characters with their skins. Recently however I had purchased GW2 on PC because I miss it and I am currently replaying it all to master because why not?
having played on xbox for a while and getting max rank, there is at least one server somewhat full for each game mode and seems to be the largest concentration of the playerbase. its been thriving partly because of game pass, but also because the other max ranks tend to stay around on the game for longer than on other platforms. its shown by at least one max rank for each lobby and often times a group of max rank friends in some of the lobbies. I will say, garden warfare 2 is most limited by its release time, and there are still an ungodly amount of bugs you can find that sometimes appear at random, and ping speeds are slower compared to neighborvile. although the balance in neighborvile is better it feels samey with the lack of variants, and i like to also see variants being used in interesting and stupid ways
i've been playing garden warfare 2 for about 2 weeks now due to wanting to play something nostalgic (on playstation), and im HOOKED man, i've haven't seen this game be so active since 2019. It makes me happy that this classic is still being played today. greaaaattt video btw.
As someone who got into these games in 2016 when GW2 first came out and when it was a alive, it’s nice to see that these games still hold up well years after their peak. Me and my friends find this game nostalgic and recently found our old copies and got back into our accounts to play, which was an amazing experience. The community is still definitely there, and I love that it is. I’m also on board for another game, and hopefully that small glimmer of hope through that post an EA manager made will turn into something bigger. Also, great video, you deserve more subs.
i play Battle for Neighborvillle on console and i will say i dont think ive ever had a problem joining a game, but some will have a lot of bots but after a game real players join. I still remember a while ago when the game was $4.79 and i immediately bought it because i had played garden warfare one 1, personally i dont get the hate towards the game but thats just me. i just wish they updated it more and cared more about the multiplayer when it was getting updated (i really hope that maybe in the far future we get garden warfare 3 or a new game in general)
i want to say that US east has been carrying me for the past 2 weeks, in the morning US west's ping is stable, but as later it gets, the ping increases while US east remains solid throughout the day.
The main reason gw2 has more fans then bfn is because variants are such a major part of the game especially the rarer like one gives the imp shotguns or turns foot soldier into a low attack speed burst damage beast the variants absolutely give gw2 most of its replay value since there are over 100 variants
PvZ 2 is actually peak if you just play the original 11 worlds (preferably on an older version like 5.0.1 or through a mod like Reflourished). I think it was was a very worthy sequel to the original game that personally I found to lowkey enjoy even more. PvZ 3 is hot garbage you can ignore it, despite the oddly high store ratings the game is almost universally hated in the PvZ community. PvZ Heroes is a very fun card game spin-off that I’d recommend checking out.
Holy.. you just unlocked a core memory with Heroes, I totally forgot that I was hooked on that years ago and I agree that PVZ 2 was actually really good, but man was it hard (for me at the time) and the thought that i needed to pay to maybe compensate for my skill issue was what made me drop it. Might give it another chance!
@@fireplacegamingYTFor some reason CZcams once again randomly decided to quietly remove all my replies so I am trying to split it to get through the filter. To be fair PvZ 2 is a harder game than the first one but it is still a perfectly beatable f2p friendly game. I do gotta mention again if you decide to try it out again I would advise against just installing the latest version from the Play Store/Apple App Store.
(fuck off youtube comment filters) The game got a lot jankier and less polished after they released Modern Day Part 2 and had massive lay offs in 2017 (they also removed like half the OST for storage space bruh). With Android or a PC running an Android emulator such as BlueStacks you can download old versions of the game (I would recommend version 5.0.1).
(this is meant to be the last part of the comment but who knows what will youtube allow me to send) Another way would be to just install a popular mod called Reflourished. The premise of Reflourished is that its primarily like an expansion mod to the old PvZ 2 the way it was in 2016 with all of the original adventure content basically intact but with quality of life changes and a bunch of custom extra content like new custom worlds and some bonus levels for the worlds.
Will give this a try, thanks for taking the time to guide through I’m sure there are others looking to play it as well but would want the best possible experience!
If you think gw2 is slow paced without sprinting you should learn to bean jump and the superhero jump those tecs fixed the issue for me, in my opinion with the way they implemented sprinting it took away from the characters that could move faster in the previous game but with some changes it could have been really good
as some one who has grown up with both the original and the shooter series sense I was little, this was a great video, I'm glad I'm not the only one who prefers BFN over GW1/2
BfN is my favorite on the series out of the 3 Ive played since each released, but BfN is pretty "decently" alive on Switch. Theres a pretty dedicated niche playerbase of level 3000s that play actively, lobbies arent too long of a wait time, and 16 player matches end up with more than half of the lobby being real players. There are even usually just 6 or more people just casually messing around in the hub PvP area.
Ive played Garden Warfare 2 since like a year after its release. The community is non toxic, the games have so much variety with the varients and theres just a general sense of community and friendly rivalry. After most matches even if it was a one sided beatdown, all sides still have fun emoting and clowing around together in the post game screen. Very rarely do you hear toxicity in game chat. Theres a constant but drip fed stream of new players and finding busy lobbies is no issue at all on PlayStation Lots of edits for spelling and grammar I also forgot to mention its my favourite game of all time after the original tomb raider
Andrew Wilson is so disconnected from reality, he thinks everyone wants another shitty battlefield game, or those sports games that get made every year, We don’t want this EA please listen!
((5:51)) Hello... about the Console server of both PvZ GW and even BfN there are still a lot of player keep playing it ! But this is my personal view of this, because I can be wrong so yeah... The first two PvZ GW and BfN are still played by players even today on console platform ! ((P.S. I also want to point out that I'm only talking about the PS4 servers of the game so I don't really know if theres a ton of players playing on Xbox servers))
Ea has gotta make garden warfare 3 without any consumables that force you to pay to win. Like GW2 but this time add BFN characters with variants, use the same game models from gw2, add more variants(Goat and stump), add exclusive characters (Chester chopper, Berry shooter, and citrus cactus),bosses as spawn able bot zombies, and have all maps from previous game modes(ex: for gardens and graveyards have walnut hills, Seeds of time)
Absolutely loved this video, and that you are giving these games a chance. Been playing since 2014 and it’s an amazing franchise overall. Hope this resurgence continues! Subscribed 🙌
I quite like PvZ Battle for Neighborville. It's a very nice family game to play together in splitscreen. GW2 is also a nice splitscreen family game, but I honestly perfer Battle for Neighborville. I don't really play online much since I like to play with my family and not with random stangers. But anyway, both games are pretty good. We play them on our Xbox during family game time after dinner. Although, to be fair, lately, we have been playing Call of Duty World at War and Black Ops 3 because they have 4 player splitscreen modes. But Plants vs. Zombies make for better family games, so I'd love to see a Garden Warfare 3 or Battle for Neighborville 2.
These numbers are also on pc, console has a way bigger player base especially since all games are on gamepass and have been on ps plus. On console, even BFN has players
Bro as soon as I remembered this game buried in my ps5 I only don’t play it because I maxed it out and no one was playing 😂😂😂 Edit:wow thanks for the like man ❤❤❤ just subbed
For bfn, in order to play gnome bomb, you need to wait for the 3rd online play mode to switch to it. There's only 3 so that the players are more concentrated, which is why its easier to get into lobbies. You can't really have both.
if BfN had variants I would 100% play it over GW2 bc of running visuals and all QoL upgrades, I get the idea behind their removal, they are too grindy harder to balance and some even repetitive and sometimes a variant is just useless/a downgrade compared to another, however they breath so much life into the game and replayability
nah the bfn visuals are so weird and dry compared to the 2 ogs. Also I actually don’t like running cuz it encourages running away in the middle of a match (using an ability to do that AT LEAST puts you in a disadvantage unlike sprinting. Also the maps and single player are trash (in my opinion)
@@Halls141 visuals yeah its mostly preference, id say running is good bc returning to the action at least feels faster and sometimes in like gardens and graveyards returning is so lo g you use abilities to return, while i do agree mid combat running is kinda wack, i honestly dont care for either single player that much but I feel bfn is more polished
You better believe Plants vs Zombies won’t stay down, this is my favorite franchise and it has so much potential, the only thing holding it back is EA or the pop cap leadership who does not see the potential of it and us not greenlight products to see is potential realize like there was plans to make a somewhat open world plan for a plan for zombie game and maybe a movie and they canceled both, stupid.
Please make another video about the new community post giving us a chance to revive the game since the playerbase is so strong an ea community manager saw how good the steam sale and console player base is and they might revisit this game
Shame that my baby GW1 isn't on steam. I love the game and I massively prefer it over the latter games, but since it's a decade old at this point, you can imagine that there aren't too many players left... Still, at certain times you can still get full lobbies (at least where I live) and that's just talking about PC, the game's weakest platform!
I have played both pc and console for garden warfare 2… and I wish i still have a pc to play gw2 online since it’s too expensive for me to pay ps+ yearly…
All they need to do is start updating the game with new content somewhat regularly and I’m sure the player count will skyrocket. If EA is money hungry, they’re missing out on dessert.
Console servers are doing good. Before it would typically be half full to somewhat empty with the rare full match. Recently almost every single match has been full
GW2 on PlayStation is doing all right I can always find a game no matter what time and I showed the game to 2 of my friends and they liked it so much that they bought it and are constantly playing it and my other friend is also tempted to get it so people are starting to buy and we also had a sale on PlayStation and it definitely has brought more players
I wouldve loved nbv if they had my boy Popscorn and the other variants, thats the only thing holding it back (And maybe that awkward creepy artstyle, especially the peashooters)
You wanted to know how it is on console yeah? Well most people play this game on xbox, and im certain of it. The first device gw2 came on, was xbox on February 23rd 2016. Though i think playstation may have more but i might be wrong. But this is seriously one of the only games where xbox has the majority playerbase.
I played gw2 a shit ton when I got it on console in 2017. It was really fun and once I got a pc. I got the game on PC so I could make the game look even better with mods and stuff.
I wish pvz3 was good… Hopefully it will be someday considering the devs are finally listening But to answer the question yes every pvz game prior to 3 hold up pretty well
I hope PopCap and EA eventually get a team to revive the GW games. Hell, even a successor to BFN would make me happy at this point. But PopCap is WAYYYYY smaller than they were, and PopCap Vancouver who designed the shooters are literally non-existent now, which sucks. The amount of times theyre promoting and putting the shooters on sale SPECIFICALLY is very interesting though, especially now that they seem to be seperate from regular sales of all EA games on steam
i recomend you to play de garden warfare 1, actually in the actuallity still have a big fan base and group of fans that still playing, in my opinion is the best of 3 games
Don't get your hopes up, PopCap Vancoover, the Studio that worked on the Shooter Games, shut down sadly. The only PopCap Studio left is the one for the Tower Defence Games.
@@fireplacegamingYT i know, but literally today, EA community manager saw the rise of players and is pushing this to higher ups. He tried this a while ago but failed, who knows now though
Gnome bomb can drive a man to insanity. I remember playing a match witha friend what went 40 minutes into overtime and both teams were going crazy. There were SO many dummy shields around the point you couldn't physically reach it.
people would still be playing this on xboxlive 360 till they shut it down, and they shut it down this year around april or may, which sucks because i was playing on xboxlive in january 2024 on my 360 and there was still lots of people playing it then on xboxlive.
Just last Sunday, the EA community manager posted on EA forums that they are trying to gather some evidence on Garden Warfare’s recent surge to send to their higher ups which will hopefully bring back attention to the series!

It’s of course no guarantee of anything or that it’ll get anywhere but I’m sure every bit of help from players count!

But Plants vs. Zombies make for better family games, so I'd love to see a Garden Warfare 3 or Battle for Neighborville 2.
These numbers are also on pc, console has a way bigger player base especially since all games are on gamepass and have been on ps plus. On console, even BFN has players
Pvz really just said, “I ALWAYS COME BACK!”
Most iconic PvZ song:
Loonboon: ❌
I'm still standing: ✅
Bro as soon as I remembered this game buried in my ps5 I only don’t play it because I maxed it out and no one was playing 😂😂😂
Edit:wow thanks for the like man ❤❤❤ just subbed
As Laura Shigihara once wrote: WE ARE THE UNDEAD!!
Thats going to be stuck in my head all day now lol
I just hope Peggle comes back
GW2 on PC and PS4 have quite a number of players, specifically on Turf Takeover!
when i play turff an mixed is the only ones with at lease 3/4 full
For bfn, in order to play gnome bomb, you need to wait for the 3rd online play mode to switch to it. There's only 3 so that the players are more concentrated, which is why its easier to get into lobbies. You can't really have both.
Yes it coming back bc it had 90% off so me and the boys got the game for a cheap price
And I hope we don't encounter toxic and try hard players
*laughs in max rank*
Fr tho i just randomly pick characters and i either play like a demon or absolutely shit the bed
if BfN had variants I would 100% play it over GW2 bc of running visuals and all QoL upgrades, I get the idea behind their removal, they are too grindy harder to balance and some even repetitive and sometimes a variant is just useless/a downgrade compared to another, however they breath so much life into the game and replayability
nah the bfn visuals are so weird and dry compared to the 2 ogs. Also I actually don’t like running cuz it encourages running away in the middle of a match (using an ability to do that AT LEAST puts you in a disadvantage unlike sprinting. Also the maps and single player are trash (in my opinion)
@@Halls141 visuals yeah its mostly preference, id say running is good bc returning to the action at least feels faster and sometimes in like gardens and graveyards returning is so lo g you use abilities to return, while i do agree mid combat running is kinda wack, i honestly dont care for either single player that much but I feel bfn is more polished
Time to get back into gw2 lezzzz gooo
You better believe Plants vs Zombies won’t stay down, this is my favorite franchise and it has so much potential, the only thing holding it back is EA or the pop cap leadership who does not see the potential of it and us not greenlight products to see is potential realize like there was plans to make a somewhat open world plan for a plan for zombie game and maybe a movie and they canceled both, stupid.
Please make another video about the new community post giving us a chance to revive the game since the playerbase is so strong an ea community manager saw how good the steam sale and console player base is and they might revisit this game
ive been grinding gw2 last few weeks just bought it
Shame that my baby GW1 isn't on steam. I love the game and I massively prefer it over the latter games, but since it's a decade old at this point, you can imagine that there aren't too many players left...
Still, at certain times you can still get full lobbies (at least where I live) and that's just talking about PC, the game's weakest platform!
I have played both pc and console for garden warfare 2… and I wish i still have a pc to play gw2 online since it’s too expensive for me to pay ps+ yearly…
We don't want it to stay down
All they need to do is start updating the game with new content somewhat regularly and I’m sure the player count will skyrocket. If EA is money hungry, they’re missing out on dessert.
turf in my opinion is the best mode (not including mixed because it all modes) and it grants most coins try it out
Console servers are doing good. Before it would typically be half full to somewhat empty with the rare full match. Recently almost every single match has been full
GW2 on PlayStation is doing all right I can always find a game no matter what time and I showed the game to 2 of my friends and they liked it so much that they bought it and are constantly playing it and my other friend is also tempted to get it so people are starting to buy and we also had a sale on PlayStation and it definitely has brought more players
I thought you had 34.6 k not 346 subs, well done
As a PlayStation 4 player i have noticed that whenever i join a game it instantly loads unlike battle for neighbor mode
They need to add cross play
I wouldve loved nbv if they had my boy Popscorn and the other variants, thats the only thing holding it back (And maybe that awkward creepy artstyle, especially the peashooters)
You wanted to know how it is on console yeah? Well most people play this game on xbox, and im certain of it. The first device gw2 came on, was xbox on February 23rd 2016. Though i think playstation may have more but i might be wrong. But this is seriously one of the only games where xbox has the majority playerbase.
Just got off gw1 15 mins ago game is fye
Bfn switch is going strong from what I can tell
I played gw2 a shit ton when I got it on console in 2017. It was really fun and once I got a pc. I got the game on PC so I could make the game look even better with mods and stuff.
I wish pvz3 was good…
Hopefully it will be someday considering the devs are finally listening
But to answer the question yes every pvz game prior to 3 hold up pretty well
I hope PopCap and EA eventually get a team to revive the GW games. Hell, even a successor to BFN would make me happy at this point. But PopCap is WAYYYYY smaller than they were, and PopCap Vancouver who designed the shooters are literally non-existent now, which sucks. The amount of times theyre promoting and putting the shooters on sale SPECIFICALLY is very interesting though, especially now that they seem to be seperate from regular sales of all EA games on steam
I think the Playstation has the biggest audience right now. I find matches instantly all the time
i recomend you to play de garden warfare 1, actually in the actuallity still have a big fan base and group of fans that still playing, in my opinion is the best of 3 games
but you need to see it apart of the other 2, is most unic in that way
Yall, an EA manager is trying to get attention back to the GW/BFN Series
Gw2 is the best game i will never get bored
Gw2 has tons of players on Playstation
I have every non legendary character and still play
plants always grow back.
Nightcap is fun to use: maybe because it's overpowered :/
Don't get your hopes up, PopCap Vancoover, the Studio that worked on the Shooter Games, shut down sadly. The only PopCap Studio left is the one for the Tower Defence Games.
Yeah I saw, i’ve only gotten into this recently but I can’t imagine how heartbreaking that must have been for long time fans
@@fireplacegamingYT i know, but literally today, EA community manager saw the rise of players and is pushing this to higher ups. He tried this a while ago but failed, who knows now though
Well well well, they might be back. WE might be back.
Very tiny "nerd emoji" correction, there's gnome bomb in Battle For Neighborville, but it's just a weekly event that happens randomly.
to be honest i just want fun
The pvz franchise is like a zombie, it dies then comes back from the undead.
Is good really really well on PlayStation
I recently started playing pvz2 recently
Can't stop A- brainzz babyyy
the servers had a lot of issues for a while with ppl just doxxing them and banning people i think so its probably why theyre bad
Who still plays GW2 in 2024? Cause I still do!
The console servers are really good and have felt that there always are good
Me alegro, de los shooter me gustaría que reviviera Battle for neighborville.
Hours of time to get cosmetics: People who just open packs and get cosmetics
Gnome bomb can drive a man to insanity. I remember playing a match witha friend what went 40 minutes into overtime and both teams were going crazy.
There were SO many dummy shields around the point you couldn't physically reach it.
Think i got my record kill count of 98 in GB. I know some people absolutely urinate on that number but damn i was proud of it lol
11:41 oh you definitely haven't played on the australian servers in our late afternoon.
people would still be playing this on xboxlive 360 till they shut it down, and they shut it down this year around april or may, which sucks because i was playing on xboxlive in january 2024 on my 360 and there was still lots of people playing it then on xboxlive.
This all happened on my birthday
Console servers haves always had servers but it is mostly a lot of the same people
EA did it good from the start but in the end is just suffering
if you think about it all of the EA products are all the same
