@lemonieeng2695 well, they do give you a couple level 4 plants at the beginning. The most noticeable ones are primal sunflower and electric blue berry. Also, you have to complete all the world levels in hard mode to be able to unlock the boss fight and all of them are around level 4 or more zombies, so by the time you get to zomboss, you should already have at least a bunch of good level 4 plants if not level 5 plants
There’s minecarts on the battlefield. For one attack, Zomboss drives offscreen before charging down a minecart rail. It can be stopped with Plant Food, as usual.
As least it made I’m more love this world. Imma show you my rank in addition world: *my favorite* 1. Heain age (I love grimmick. it almost rank 2 because we had to wait 10 more years for bosses) 2. Renaissance age (because it gave me Aloe. Lol and wait for more 5 years for bosses) 3. Steam age (finally boss fight) 4. Kung fu world (loved music) 5. Sky city (So hard)
Cool, another good video from Flag! And it is, because you told us everything we need to know about Zombot. Thanks for that and for everything you made.
Gotta love how the coal doesn't glow white when hit like everything else in the game. It has a shit ton of health, no visual indicator of damage, and no degrades. Lovely.
Well, it's coal after all, and as we know, coal doesn't show that it is in any way damaged until it crumbles to dust (ask any miner), so this is actually pretty accurate.
@@sreyansasmal3525That was from the devolver! Mentioned at the start, it randomly shoots 3 zombies to make them (usually) weaker, and will also change the type of zombie they are.
Better translation of Dialogue in the beginning: Z: "Long time no see, beard (referring to Crazy Dave), scrap metal (referring to Penny), oh, and you! (referring to the player)" The rest two zomboss lines was translated correctly D: "He's the zombachamacallit... oh yeah zombmaster (a pun on zomboss having a PhD but calling it a master degree) P: "Oh dave, I have to remind you, he's called Doctor zomboss." P: "Maybe we should use a stopwatch to time how long he lasts." So the Steam Age Zomboss comes out. It wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but why did it take 5 years? The thing is, this boss was in development hell for the past years. At first they wanted to make a unique zomboss type, but popcap shanghai, who was still supervising them at the time, said no, and after a while, the boss just can't be finished on time, causing it to be missing. After that, Talkweb continued to make more designs including several cyclops one, but popcap(the international one) didn't allow the design to pass. This design for the zomboss was only approved recently. You can even see that the carts were remade from icecream truck (the one from kid's day) because it has the same text when you try to plant on it. Still, it was great that this finally came out, as a part of the newest 10th anniversary update. Let's wish that it will be better in the future (btw the Chinese players are rioting about the magic bean event, you might want to mention that if you ever want to make a video on the 10th anniversary update.

This combined with the 10th anniversary realm made it a very disappointing experience for a lot of the Chinese players.
Here are some suggestions of how the Zombot Terror Train (my fan name) could be balanced: 1. The coals could have less health. 2. The little train minions could be defeated upon contact with a plant and don't have an AOE explosion (kinda like Rodeo Legend Zombie). 3. He doesn't jump around as much so not much free damage can be done. 4. The little trains don't have a huge health pool like the coals and can be destroyed if the plants are strong enough (if it's possible). 5. Missiles remain the same so no changes. 6. Overpowered plants (levels included) should be locked out so cheesing the boss isn't possible or there won't be a challenge at all (could also apply to other boss battles as well). 7. This one may not be for balancing but could be a good mechanic to add. Zomboss blows the train whistle before charging straight forward but to balance it out, you will be given more plant food to counter it. If not, use an instant-use plant. That's all of my suggestions for how to balance this boss. If anyone has better suggestions, feel free to comment below.
Regarding the 6th suggestion, suppose that all of your offensive plants are (somehow) overpowered and already max leveled, can you just not play the level then.
@@randomsomeone7771 Well my suggestion is still good. Maybe locking out plants/limiting their levels to a suitable degree. Maybe then the boss will feel challenging but not too challenging if my other suggestions were to be inputted in
they definitely worked this coal train Zombot off of the Wild West Zombot with the wheels, but the amount of detail and differences is so much that the former part isnt even an issue.
Ideas for a bit more spice to this Remove that lawn clearing like man what is that Give Zomboss the ability to feed his machine coal, and it’ll produce smog similar to the vents smog over half the map Instead of the explosive trains, add a miniature train thing that is piloted by an imp and drills into the lawn, popping out to create a vent The coal can be consumed by the Zombot for either smog or a slight attack speed up For a sort of final attack, the Zombot eats all the remaining coal it’s carrying and shoots out a blast of fire, it needs a total of 500 dps to push it back, and it needs to be pushed for 15 seconds while the Zombot shoots missiles, or else it’ll clear all the rows
I only just realized that the health bar is not properly aligned to what was displayed in the meter, making it a bit misleading that it still has a big chunk of his health remaining.
I wonder if this boss will appear in the Reflourished mod. I hope it does since its design is epic and the little train robots are cool (even if they are a bit OP).
@@caslin2018 From a gameplay perspective, the Reflourished boss is definitely better, though personally I prefer the Chinese version's design. And yes, sadly the little trains were removed. R.I.P. Little Trains: Gone too soon.
Maybe next year or two we will have Zomboss for Heian and Renaissance Age, considering it took them 5 years for Steam Ages... I don't know if Fairytale Forest is gonna get a Zomboss fight or not since it's a part of Secret Realms, but Memory Lane did have the Zomboss from PvZ 1 so we can hope.
@@ShadowBlade-f2e This made me think that Renaissance Zomboss will be a reskin of Zombot Aerostatic Gondola, and Heian Zomboss is a reskin of Blade-Wielding Hero... I mean before Talkweb took over, PopCap Shanghai made good original Zombosses like Zombot Vulture Fighter and Blade-Wielding Hero.
@@mychelrocha7281 True, but considering Steam Ages took 5 whole years for a Zomboss and when they make it it's a reskin, I'm not getting my hopes up so I won't be dissapointed when the time comes.
10:02 Do you wanna know what the sad part about all this is? After five years of construction the Zombot ends up getting destroyed.Also love the music you put in this video.
It's funny that I think they said they redesigned the boss because it looked too similar to the original bosses (in the end it seems they left it that way)
Might I recommend DeepL translate for your text translations? Zomboss - It's been a long time, Beard, Broken Tin, oh, and you! Zomboss - It wasn't easy getting here, was it? Zomboss - In return for your efforts, I'd like to show you the power of industrial age technology! Crazy Dave - He's the zombie who has a master's degree in zombies. Master Zombie! Penny - Oh Dave, I have to make a necessary reminder that he is Dr. Zombie. Penny - Maybe we should take a watch and figure out how long he'll last this time.
Lol I don't need it cuz I'm Chinese. Here's my (more accurate) translation: Zomboss: "Long time no see, Beardy, Broken Tin Can, oh, and you too! Getting here wasn't easy, was it? To repay for your hard work, I'll let you see the power of technology of the Industrial Age!" Dave: "What zombie was he.... Oh! Doctor Zomboss! (I'm not sure about this one)" Penny: "Oh Dave, I must give you an important warning. He is Doctor Zomboss. Or we could get a watch, calculate how long he'll last this time around." And that's it. Happy to help
@@iaminsideyourwalls2021 I appreciate the translations! I think I actually understood the translations that the app gave me more though (even if it isn’t completely accurate either), but you also translated a few minor things better too (Not sure how accurate DeepL’s Dave translation was, but it made sense).
Man that really finna give a hard time to players! Plus the boss don't give a damn bout the plants juts delete them entirely. Overall, its really cool-looking boss!
13:54 Well, actually, there was at least one more reason for such a delay: they thought about boss's mechanic and art (it wasn't planned to be cyclop-like in the beginning).
Here's an idea, Steam Ages Zomboss would shoot less missiles, 2 on phase one, 3 on phase two, and 4 on phase three. Each missile would create a 3x3 area or cross of steam, (thus incentiving the use of the world's plants.) He shoots fewer coals with lower health, and when he spawns little trains they will act as normal (less damage though) until they touch a hot coal, causing them to explode in a 3x3 area or cross. If they don't touch coal, they will reach the end of the lawn and harmlessly crumble. There would also be manholes for zombie travel around the middle of the 2nd and 4th rows, with two or three tilles between the entrance and exit, breaking up the lawn and creating another area to defend. I think these would be interesting and unique additions to the fight that properly use the plants and gimmicks of the world.
"Are you gonna do something or what" Zomboss: "OH YOU WANT ME TO DO SOMETHING HUH?! HERE, TAKE MINI-ME'S IN EVERY LANE CUZ FUCK YOU AND YOUR OPINIONS." Jokes aside, I really like how it looks. I was hoping there was the charge attack, where the zombot would transform back into the train and push through, but then I remembered the mini-me's were literally the same thing.
That's so awesome that they finally finished steam ages :O Also would you be able to make a video of every level in all the chinese worlds, I've been trying to find some but my efforts have been fruitless.
I just got a brilliant idea for a bossfight. All of the lawn is just minecarts. You have 1000 sun. No sun producers. The boss sends out attacks like the minecart missiles from wild west and the little trains(but they dont explode in the end). The goal is to beat the boss while preserving as many plants as possible. We could slap a "dont lose more than 5 plants" on top of it, but i dont think we need it with the amount of sun.
Sounds like a micromanaging nightmare that Eclise would have. Moreover, 1000 sun is just simply not enough if you're going for Zomboss. If you want to go for Zomboss, either sunproducers must be allowed (with 1000 starting sun) or give 3000 starting sun. Also, remove the plant loss limit, that just sounds annoying, or make it more generous like "Don't lose more than 20 plants".
I remembered that thjs exists, and with my newly aquired understanding of game development i will make some adjustments. First of all, up the sun amount to 2000. Then, lets talk about the behaviour of the boss. It would do an action two seconds after it finishes its previous action. These actions include: sending out 2-31 trains(uncommon), moving(common), sending missiles to 3-6 rows(uncommon), summoning 1-4 zombies(rare). The summonned zombies will be either four basics, two basics and a cone, two cones or a bucket. If he spawned zombies he will not spawn any more until all of them died. The trains can kill the zombies. The trains go into a random lane that doesnt already have a train. Missiles go into a random pane that doesnt have missiles targeting it. The missiles will always leave a spot open on the tracks, like in the wild west zomboss fight. They will first show a warning for ~4 seconds. That will depend on the amount of rows targeted. Should be barely enough time to move all of the carts into safe spots. When either trains or missiles are on the field, either one cant beactivated until they disappear or despawn or whatever. Edit: forgot to say, we remove the plant limit, but keep the sun producer ban. Maybe i will allow sun bean. Maybe.
@@Mr.Eous_Mann This definitely sounds like an actual fun level. Sun bean could be a neat edition as it'd allow more freedom to the player in terms of sun.
...the Mini-trains should just explode at the first plant they hit... The only reason that they don't turn the fight into an unfair curb-stomp in Zomboss' favor is because that's his strongest trick by five orders of magnitude. His other tricks are not nearly as game-ruining.
I had ChatGPT translate the dialogue before the boss fight, this is what I got: Zomboss: Long time no see, Beardy, Rusty, oh, and there you are! It wasn't easy to come here, was it? To repay your efforts, I'll let you experience the power of industrial-era technology! Crazy Dave: He's that what's-it-called zombie... oh, Zombie Master! Penny: Oh, Dave, I have to make a necessary correction, he's a Zombie Doctor. Perhaps we should set a timer to see how long he can last this time.
Why couldn’t it be a Steam engine Zombot hybrid instead of being an actual Steam Engine? I mean look at Wild West’s Zombot Edit: now that I see it closer it actually does kinda look like a hybrid, the thumbnail made the zombot look like it was a regular steam train

That would definitely be something Zomboss would respond with
interesting
I have been waiting for this in ages
Huge props for the Dirk Valentine music
The final sentence penny said before the boss fight was "Maybe we should get a watch, to count how long he will last this time.
I thought Steam Ages was just released a year ago lol. Time flies so fast
Love the bg music choices
Thanks!
I wish the boss had its own themed music.
About time they added a boss here. It’s been long overdue.
I'd like to imagine the devs got asked for a steam ages boss so much they made it extremely difficult in retaliation
Wow they gave the plants roles already.
By what I meant is that they have those bows and positive sign symbols at the top left of their seed packets.
look very closley to the coal minecart at 6:12
COAL AND MINECART AT THE SAME DAMN COLUMN
That's so awesome that they finally finished steam ages :O
Also would you be able to make a video of every level in all the chinese worlds, I've been trying to find some but my efforts have been fruitless.
"Are you gonna do anything or what"
Words before disaster
0:54 funniest thing I’ve seen all year
Can’t wait until the renaissance, Heian and Fairytale forest gets a boss 5 years later 🥲
That little "oh" is priceless
What I find very unfair about this Zombot is when it throws 5 trains at you and destroys all your plants.
Good video👍👍👍.
Surely there are more Zombies in the Reflourished version
Including that weird-face Bully who summon Clockwork Zombies
I just got a brilliant idea for a bossfight. All of the lawn is just minecarts. You have 1000 sun. No sun producers. The boss sends out attacks like the minecart missiles from wild west and the little trains(but they dont explode in the end). The goal is to beat the boss while preserving as many plants as possible. We could slap a "dont lose more than 5 plants" on top of it, but i dont think we need it with the amount of sun.
oh that would be impossible if the boss was zomboss. Plants are expensive, and if the boss sends in zombies, that would just be unfair honestly.
Sounds like a micromanaging nightmare that Eclise would have. Moreover, 1000 sun is just simply not enough if you're going for Zomboss. If you want to go for Zomboss, either sunproducers must be allowed (with 1000 starting sun) or give 3000 starting sun. Also, remove the plant loss limit, that just sounds annoying, or make it more generous like "Don't lose more than 20 plants".
I remembered that thjs exists, and with my newly aquired understanding of game development i will make some adjustments. First of all, up the sun amount to 2000. Then, lets talk about the behaviour of the boss. It would do an action two seconds after it finishes its previous action. These actions include: sending out 2-31 trains(uncommon), moving(common), sending missiles to 3-6 rows(uncommon), summoning 1-4 zombies(rare). The summonned zombies will be either four basics, two basics and a cone, two cones or a bucket. If he spawned zombies he will not spawn any more until all of them died. The trains can kill the zombies. The trains go into a random lane that doesnt already have a train. Missiles go into a random pane that doesnt have missiles targeting it. The missiles will always leave a spot open on the tracks, like in the wild west zomboss fight. They will first show a warning for ~4 seconds. That will depend on the amount of rows targeted. Should be barely enough time to move all of the carts into safe spots. When either trains or missiles are on the field, either one cant beactivated until they disappear or despawn or whatever.
Edit: forgot to say, we remove the plant limit, but keep the sun producer ban. Maybe i will allow sun bean. Maybe.
@@Mr.Eous_Mann This definitely sounds like an actual fun level. Sun bean could be a neat edition as it'd allow more freedom to the player in terms of sun.
...the Mini-trains should just explode at the first plant they hit...
The only reason that they don't turn the fight into an unfair curb-stomp in Zomboss' favor is because that's his strongest trick by five orders of magnitude. His other tricks are not nearly as game-ruining.
The only reason this fight is possible is because of the broken plants.
Finally, The Enemy of the Time has returned with his new Zombot Train-Tron of Steam Ages. 10/10
🛠️🚂🛠️🚂🛠️🛠️🚂
Nice Gameplay my friend!
El problema que tiene para mi es ese ultimo ataque que hace, pero lo demas ta bien
1:06 aw it's adorable
(8 seconds later)
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Good finally a new boss😢🎉😮.
Good video flag!😊
I like to think that the dev team just remembered that Steam Ages exists and just made the boss out of boredom.
Oh wow, nice!
10:44 Electric Blueberry go BRR
You think this means we’ll be seeing other zomboss’ for worlds that don’t have one??
Either way THIS IS SO COOL AHAHHH
Revolutionary stuff right here
COAL BRIMSTONE ZOMBOSS KINO
This one would have been absolutely perfect to have a charge attack, but it just doesn’t????
I just filled the whole lawn with gold blooms while setting up the defense and then spammed my level 4 magnifying grass like a maniac lol.
3:26 Zomboss finally decided to use lawn mowers
He finally learnt from his mistakes and used one against us
At 10:43 these blueberries DO NOT give a shit!
this zomboss design is actually really cool ngl
you really needed to smile when they added that fight
Btw, does Zombot mainly targets attackers in the Chinese version? Or the plants that targets are product of RNG?
Flag is busy trying to defend his house from his boss🤣!
well, now we are waiting for the boss on the rest of the worlds
FINALLY BITCH. WE WERE WAITING FOR YEARS!!!(sorry for big ass letters) (sorry for my english)
Zomboss just deciding to wipe the floor in the third phase is kinda crazy
It has been 6 year's us international players got a never new island
This vid is really high quality👍
Thanks!
I had ChatGPT translate the dialogue before the boss fight, this is what I got:
Zomboss: Long time no see, Beardy, Rusty, oh, and there you are! It wasn't easy to come here, was it? To repay your efforts, I'll let you experience the power of industrial-era technology!
Crazy Dave: He's that what's-it-called zombie... oh, Zombie Master!
Penny: Oh, Dave, I have to make a necessary correction, he's a Zombie Doctor. Perhaps we should set a timer to see how long he can last this time.
Why couldn’t it be a Steam engine Zombot hybrid instead of being an actual Steam Engine? I mean look at Wild West’s Zombot
Edit: now that I see it closer it actually does kinda look like a hybrid, the thumbnail made the zombot look like it was a regular steam train
