I am having a blast playing the game on my PS5. There was a patch yesterday that nerfed Momo (fan throwing girl) because she was legendarily OP. I work a lot but I have had a few wins before the patch, and a couple wins yesterday in my limited amount of time. You need to shift your thought processes on how you play battle royale games when you play this. I’m as burnt out on the genre as the next man, but this has me interested because it’s so different. Here’s some tips.
1) This isn’t fortnite or COD. I know that LOOKS obvious, but you don’t have a gun (unless you’re momo) so there’s no I saw him first and pulled the trigger so I win stuff. This is a straight up action adventure game. With that in mind…
2) Levels matter tremendously. You get EXP from scrolls in chest, monsters, and players. Instead of the COD/Fortnite way of play that’s proven successful being “I saw someone, time to charge in, chase them down and kill them” you should try thinking more here.
“That character is a tough matchup for me. They didn’t see me so I’ll focus on getting stronger.” Or I soundly beat this guys life to critical levels. If I chase him/her too long I bring attention to myself, risk being low on stamina if someone jumps in, and the longer I chase the more EXP I’m missing out on. Same goes for them. Better off letting this one go.
3) Last piece of advice would be because it’s an action game, combos are super important. Think devil may cry, but nowhere near as flashy. You COULD play the game doing mash attack basic strings, but the effectiveness goes through the roof when you learn the synergy in attacks and make combos. This game has a combo breaker that recharges over time so use it properly, not too soon. But 2, it has a training room. Find out your favorite characters ranges, how you can whiff punish, what your launchers are, and what your most damaging combo could be. That enemy may escape your first combo IF they haven’t used their breaker yet. If they have, maximize your damage and make them pay.
If you want more tips and me on PlayStation. I can send you some clips I’ve taken off some epic kills, or wins I’ve gotten that might help you find your own style or get a idea of the games flow.

I actually had a lot of fun on this yesterday. The fan girl is op af.

darthv721366d ago

I liked PvZ (the first game) and Ive never played any of the 3rd person garden games. Im really surprised EA has not made a sequel to the original.

camel_toad1366d ago

I didn't like the 3rd person ones but then again they are totally different games. There actually was a PvZ2 but imo they butchered the formula making it a f2p game. I still to this day go back to the first game every once in a while.

A 3rd one is also in development.

darthv721366d ago

wow, thank you for telling me about the f2p game. i see it on their site now. i play the original on ds and 360 but I can try 2 on my phone. Thanks again.

edeprez1365d ago

There is a sequel... it's a mobile game, up to its frickin eyes in MT. I prefer your POV, where's the real, decent, sequel to PvZ EA? SERIOUSLY, don't waste your data downloading pvz2.

Relientk771366d ago

*Sigh*

Was really hoping those leaks were wrong.

TGGJustin1366d ago

The leak came from PlayStation.com. It had no chance of being wrong. It didn't come from some random site

darthv721366d ago

hey justin, do you still do the comparison articles for these services each month?

SullysCigar1366d ago

A rare miss from Sony this month, I'm thinking. Though I haven't played these games, I've no desire to bother either.

TGGJustin1366d ago

@darthv72 No we don't. We stopped those years ago. I personally never liked them

Palitera1366d ago

PS+ Microtransaction Festival confirmed.

FinalFantasyFanatic1365d ago

I guess the August games are just a bad month for PS Plus users this year, I was hopping the leak was wrong too.

I think this is a bad month from Sony.

phoenixwing1366d ago

I haven't played a tennis game since the ones on the dreamcast

jukins1366d ago

Same but this is more a realistic tennis game. I could definetly go for more virtua tennis

phoenixwing1366d ago (Edited 1366d ago )

Yeah I like arcady sports games more. Like nfl blitz back in the day. Nothing tops playing nba jam on genesis for nostolgia

Terry_B1366d ago

the later virtua tennis games on ps3..and xbox? were good

Duke191366d ago (Edited 1366d ago )

No need to sugarcoat here - thats just a bad month for free games. Oh well, onto September

ChasterMies1366d ago

They are not free games. You pay up to $10 a month for PS+.

Duke191366d ago (Edited 1366d ago )

I bought into PS+ before I even knew the free games was a thing. So its a nice added plus to a subscription model (I was already more than fine paying just for online play and access to discounts) when there are games worth playing on there I don't have to otherwise buy on the store.

It was just faster to type "free"

Kryptix11365d ago (Edited 1365d ago )

Logic isn't allowed here.

Humble Bundle Choice gives you store discounts and 5% goes to charity, but it doesn't make the games free or the discounts are free. lol
