Upcoming balance changes for Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 [ Edited ]

[EA_Andy]

Hi everyone,

Wow! It’s been an amazing launch week and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the reception that Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 has enjoyed from all of you. Our fans mean everything to us and we’ve been listening very closely to all of your feedback. Today I want to take a moment to discuss what we’re doing with that feedback, as well as give you a little sneak preview on our first free content update!

First and foremost: Rose. This is an important topic for many of you and we’ve received tons of valuable player feedback related to her ability to deal damage in the game. Rose was conceived as a support role/specialist, not a primary damage dealer, and we’ve been working on rebalancing her to fit that role. This fix is going to be implemented very soon and we thank you for your patience and incredible support while we get it ready. Keep your eyes peeled here and on our Twitter channels for an update on when the fix will be implemented.

Now for the fun part! Like I said, our fans mean everything to us, and we believe that if you invest your time in us, we should invest our time in you. That’s why I’m very excited to give you a few early details on our first free content update, the Graveyard Variety Pack!

There’s lots of great content coming in the pack and to get you as excited as we are, below is a little sneak preview at an all-new map that is very near and dear to my heart. I can’t spoil all the juicy details just yet, but get ready for a trip back to Suburbia!

That’s certainly not all, and in addition to new content, we’re working on more tuning and balancing updates to other characters based on your feedback. Keep your eyes peeled for more information on this soon as we’ll be sharing all the details so you know what’s changing.

Thank you again, to all of our fans, for such an amazing launch week!  Your continued feedback and support is what makes this game great. Please continue to share your comments and ideas with us and don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled for full details on our Graveyard Variety Pack.
