PvZ Garden Warfare Revealed

Zombies is the hottest to really make the bounce, and probably the oddest example yet; Garden Warfare downright ditches the tactical gameplay of the unique for large-scale multiplayer gunfights. No more are you planting Bonk Choy and standing back as it clobbers zombies--you're in the thick of it, firing peas from your pea shooter mouth and sniping zombies with the Cactus's long-range shots. Despite the fact that there are several unusual design choices and balance issues, the resulting shooter is enchanting, pleasant, and completely worthy of the Plants vs. Zombies name.

Whereas the PvZ of the past was obviously a lightweight tower defense series, Garden Warfare is a class-based third-person shooter, with plants and zombies likely to war in suburban areas with guns, seeds, rockets, and petals. It's actually a much more action-oriented experience, certainly, however the core of the franchise--the wonderful struggle among plants and zombies--is agreeably intact, and organized by strong core gameplay that's pleasurable in its lunacy.

Garden Warfare is lacking in a single-player campaign of any sort, preferably increasing down on a trio of cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes. Each dips into the same five rural levels, repurposed to scratch some other multiplayer itch, despite the fact that none are all that exceptional, they're pleasurable in their own right. Vanquish (Team Deathmatch) and Gardens & Graveyards (Control Point/Rush Mode) are finished and interesting, and make use of the idiosyncrasies of the PvZ universe in 12-on-12 battles. While Vanquish does not vary from the team deathmatch archetype, G&G enables the vegetation side to defend its points with plants, while the zombies can spawn undead AI to help swarm the enemy's gardens. This minimal change makes the currently large-scale battles feel a lot more significant, and provides you additional control over the mayhem.

Garden Ops flies nearest conventional Plants vs. Zombies gameplay, with a group of four plants battling more and more challenging waves of zombies and battling the unexpected boss wave. Sure, it is simply Gears' progressively prevalent Horde mode, however the premise translates completely into the PvZ universe. Although it lacks the scale of the 24-player skirmishes, the more close setup and concentrate on co-op make for interesting gameplay--and the ability to build-up your base with potted plants is a clever tip of the hat to the franchise's roots (pun not designed however, wow, that exercised well). Each multiplayer level features a few locations to begin the waves from, too, creating for the otherwise paltry list of multiplayer maps.

The Plant and Zombie factions each feature four special, playable classes, and they all feature a trio of special skills which help them stand out. While there are several that are ridiculously better than the remaining, they all have their very own place on the battlefield--from the high-damage Zombie All-Star (who is able to kick explosive zombies, dash, and spawn tackling dummies) to the healing Sunflower (who can fire beams of solar light when she's not healing her allies). There exists a great deal of asymmetry to it as well, developing an entertaining dynamic involving the sides and creating chaotic rounds. Additionally, it results in some balance problems--good luck obtaining anything as powerful as the one-hit-kill Chomper on the zombie side.
