a pogo.com fan site, blog and badge tracker
From the category archives:
Risk has been in beta testing for a few weeks now so we’re starting to get early reports on how the game is shaping up. For now, here’s a look at the five badges for Risk. We assume the game will have 50 ranks and these five badges will be awarded at ranks 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 — but nothing is for sure.
We’ll keep you posted as we get more information on the badge ranks and requirements.
Last night, several people wrote in to let us know that they’d received rejection letters from Pogo’s beta program for this session and some wrote in to let us know they’d been accepted. It looks like this is the final batch of letters to go out. (For those of you interested in whitelisting the address for your spam filters, both the acceptance and rejection letters came from betainfo@fun.ea.com.)
Currently, testers are playing Battleship (we’ve heard a rumor that they’re holding a frag party this weekend!), and soon Risk and Block Builder will be available for testing as well. Keep an eye here for news, rumors, badges and information as they become available!
Congrats to those of you who got in!
For those of you who didn’t: Pogo claims they don’t allow people to test for two concurrent sessions, so you’ll have an even better chance of getting in next time! This session should end somewhere around the end of the year and shortly thereafter the next round of applications will be taken.
Come back tomorrow for our Weekend Open Thread where we’ll be discussing beta applications, among other topics!
Risk and Battleship are coming to Pogo.com! Don’t get your hopes up for a release anytime this (or maybe next) season, these aren’t even in development yet. We’ll bring you as many details as we can, as soon as they’re available.
