anyone here play this game? how is it? worth grabbing?

I play it, it's slow paced and a little bullshit at times but can be fun, worth picking up in my opition. The servers are still full on PC and PS4 but I think Xbox is dead.

I actually enjoyed the first one a lot. Haven't played the 2nd yet though might get it when its super cheap

theres a sale for it on psn store. normal edition for around 12 dollars and deluxe is 16 i think. it looks cool but i wasnt sure if the online was still active.

It's still very active.

This game has an overwhelming amount of content and things to do.

I fucking hate what it became. The first Garden Warfare was much more enjoyable if only for its simplicity.

Feels really fucking bad, man. Popcap Seattle was hit with layoffs about a month ago. I'm scared, man. I don't want Popcap to die. I love the PvZ games to death (PvZ 2 I feel lukewarm to), but I want them to go back to their old games as well. I hope EA doesn't pull anything scary.

I don't know. I've bought it like six times though.

Neat. I should probably reinstall one of these days. It was surprisingly fun.

The second one added a bunch of new power creep classes that led to the game being unbalanced for months after launch. Can't tell you what the current state is like as I dropped it a while back.

Additionally, the game heavily relies on RNG sticker packs as a means of getting character variants which is a huge pain in the ass considering how many variants there are.

If you're really interested and can get it cheap then I won't try to dissuade you. Just airing my grievances. I do, however, recommend you try the first GW if you can acquire it.

I unironically have the DS version.

>>381167370
oh shit you do?

how is it

It takes 5 weeks real-time to unlock 2 of the classes

and you can play for thousands of hours and still not have all of the cosmetics unlocked

its basically one giant scam from EA, microtransactions everywhere even though its not even a free2play game

>>381166726
is the first GW even populated? I tried replaying it last year and I barely could find a game, though maybe I tried at a bad time.

>>381167798
Dunno. Never played it. I got it for kids.

theres no demo for this game?

Source? You can unlock a variant every few games with the 75,000 coin pack. It might sound expensive but you get around 10,000-20,000 coins a game.

There is a 10 hour trial on origins that you can start any time and finish any time, you just download it and away you go. Trials are one of the few things that make origins much better than stream imo.

I genuinely prefer the original. The sequel was a nice change of pace but eventually the fun wore off. I can still lose an hour or two in the first
