Trello Tracker URL: https://trello.com/b/x7uUvrqG/pvzbfn-tracker
For those who don't know:
Trello Tracker is the platform developers will use to communicate their changes to the community as well as acknowledge community concerns/investigate issues reported. The issues are being updated on a weekly basis and not all issues are shown (such as balancing).
How does it work?
Acknowledged issues are broken down to four categories: Quality of Life, General Bugs, Tuning, and Upcoming Patch.
QOL: these issues are suggested to improve the gaming experience but not necessary for game functionality.
Bugs: these issues are traditionally known as bugs or glitches that do hinder the game's functionality and if proven, need correction to improve game functionality.
Tuning: these issues are acknowledged concerns that are currently being investigated by the dev team and if proven/corrected would improve game functionality.
Upcoming Patch: these issues have been investigated and deemed necessary to improve the game; changes are inbound and an ETA will be listed.
Issues are color coded for quick reference (please note that RED topics are those in need of community help):
To check an issue's details, simply click on the topic title:
Any information/details regading the issue(s) as well as plans to remedy them will be displayed in this popup window.
Description is (obviously) an explanation of the topic title. As the issues are investigated and statuses change, the Activity section will be updated.
Community Voting:
As per the Tracker Board FAQ's, the community will be able to vote on some topics! To vote, simply register on Trello (https://trello.com/signup) and click a topic to see whether the voting option is enabled on that particular topic:
This is a great chance to help further develop Battle For Neighborville. Kudos to the team for the efforts in keeping us involved/updated!
Thanks to @GammaX6 for his post that made me aware of Trello Tracker! I didn't know what the tracker was and this is my understanding of it, after researching a few minutes. If I have anything listed incorrectly,Gamma (or anyone) please feel free to correct me.

I check the trello board like every couple hours everyday, after the lawn of doom update there isn't much update on the board.
@EA_David please let the devs know we are still waiting for further update and still want some transparency.

It would also be nice to enable voting on some topics even if the results don’t determine devs decisions.

Still waiting for any update on the trello....

Try using ChangeTower. After subscribing, you can add the PvZ:BFN Trello's URL to monitor it for any changes. The free account in there allows you to check for changes every 12 hours. You will receive emails if any differences were detected between each check.
If you're not satisfied with it, you can check for alternatives here.

Wish we could vote on certain topics (like XP/Bulb gain... wouldn’t have to be balancing).

Even though you can't vote on the tracker, if we see a lot of posts about one thing or topic with a lot of replies or XP is something we are always mindful of too.
What is seen on the tracker is not everything the team is working on. There can be issues or game design changes the team is working on that won't be displayed. If it's not on there, tag in one of us Community Managers here if a topic is really gaining traction and we'll bounce it off to the PvZ team.

Thank you for the explanation. 🙏
About to tag you in a post I tagged David and Lanna in earlier... I thought you were out of the office. 🤦🏼♂️
