Who Can You Trust? The Treacherous Truth of Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2

In Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2, the question “Who can you trust?” is more than just a philosophical pondering. It’s the name of a particularly mischievous achievement that requires players to betray their friends in a most delightful way. The short answer to the question is: you can’t trust anyone, especially your friends, in the Backyard Battleground when this achievement is on the line. To earn the “Who Can You Trust?” achievement, you must vanquish a friend in their Backyard Battleground. This isn’t just a casual match; it’s a calculated act of friendly betrayal, turning a cooperative space into a hilarious hunting ground.

The Devious Details of Betrayal

The “Who Can You Trust?” achievement isn’t awarded for just any old vanquish. It requires a very specific set of circumstances:

1. Backyard Battleground: You need to be in a friend’s Backyard Battleground, not a standard multiplayer map. The Backyard Battleground is the hub world where players can customize characters, complete missions, and engage in various activities.
2. Invitation is Key: The friend whose Backyard Battleground you’re visiting must invite you. You cannot simply join their space randomly.
3. Opposing Sides: Most importantly, you and your friend must be on opposing teams. This means you will need to strategically change your team affiliation in the Backyard Battleground to allow this achievement to be unlocked. If you’re both on the same team, you cannot vanquish each other and therefore cannot earn the achievement.
4. Vanquish the Betrayed: Finally, you need to successfully vanquish your friend. Once they are eliminated, the achievement will pop, solidifying your triumph and potentially damaging your friendship – all in good fun, of course!

This achievement adds a layer of playful deception to the game. It encourages friends to engage in friendly rivalries and creates memorable moments of betrayal that players often share and laugh about.

Why This Achievement is Special

“Who Can You Trust?” is more than just an easy achievement; it highlights some of the core elements that make Garden Warfare 2 so enjoyable:

• Social Interaction: It directly involves friends, promoting interaction and competition.
• Humorous Gameplay: The concept of betraying a friend for an achievement is inherently funny and creates lighthearted moments.
• Unique Gameplay Loop: It encourages players to explore and utilize the Backyard Battleground in unique ways outside of the usual questing.
• Achievement Hunting: It gives achievement hunters something fun and different to chase.

The achievement serves as a perfect example of the game’s lighthearted nature and commitment to providing entertaining and unique challenges.
