Construction Zone – 5/24

Hello Pogoians!

I hope everyone’s week is off to a great start! Many of you have voiced your concerns over the past couple of months regarding the chat filter. After working with the team, we’re excited to let you know that we were able to update the chat filter rules. You should notice that conversations aren’t as filtered out and you can have normal conversations!

Our second exciting update involves Challenge Queue — the Challenge Queue display is getting updated, making it easier for you to complete, track and find different Challenges/Goals. This update will improve the surfacing of Challenges for all players.

Key Changes:

  • Players will see the Challenge Queue displayed after each game round ends.
  • Players will be able to activate Daily and Weekly Challenges from within the Challenge Queue.
  • Players can see In Progress Challenge progress on the Challenge queue. 
  • Club players will see ongoing Event Challenges displayed on the Challenge queue.
  • Club players will see a new “More Challenges” tab next to the Challenge Queue, which allows Club players to access; MnM Challenges and Personal Challenges for the game.
  • Club players will see their current Pogis Constellation progress and unclaimed rewards on the Challenge queue.
  • After the Challenge is completed, it will be removed from the Challenge queue.

This improvement will be soft-launched to our community. This means that only a select number of members will see this update at the start. This is to ensure the update is functioning as expected. All players will receive this update in the coming weeks. As we roll this out to everyone, we will provide updates to keep you all informed. If you have any questions, please reach out to any available Mod.
