Re: New on Early Access: Play Spades HD

One of the most-requested game updates has arrived on Pogo Early Access! Spades HD brings an elegant new look to the beloved card game classic, including an expanded cast of colorful canines competitors.

Spades HD features the same great gameplay as before, with improved performance across all modern browsers. Up to four players can square off in teams of two, making bids and winning tricks. Those of you looking for a more solitary experience can partner with and play against bots. Spades HD even features customizable rules, so you can play your way.

  • I have tried the NEW SPADES!  Finally figured out how to set the table correctly! This game needs a LOT of work still! You Cannot choose your partner OR who joins your table and there's NO mute button!  IF you have a timer set and it runs out it Automatically Forfeits the game and you lose!   Which is really Lame!  We had a Very Rude person at our table and we could Not mute them!  That sucked!  Pogo said we would be able to play the game the "SAME" way!  Before the game went to Early Access!  Which is TOTALLY not true!  You Cannot choose who you play with unless it's a friend and I have NO IDEA how to invite friends!  I don't mind playing with other players but I would like to choose who plays at my table as there are A LOT of creeps and jerks that play in the spades rooms!   And if this is any indication of what Canasta is going to look like!  YIKES?   Most of the people who play Canasta  ONLY play Canasta,  and that's A LOT of members!  Half of my friends have already Left Pogo and will Not be back!  IDK what to even say!  It says in Forums that Pogo changed because of people complaining over the years about Tech issues!  WELL THAT'S BS too!  Soooo, because a few people complained....Which I have complained too over the years....But with the help of usually other players I figured out what the issues were and took care of them myself!   These other players could do the same!  But because some people complained now WE ALL have to suffer with this Lame, Cheap version of what POGO used to be!    Most of my friends and A Lot of other members are NOT going to renew their accounts!  They are not gonna pay for something they didn't ask for and don't want!  That's going to be a HUGE LOSS of money for POGO / EA.   GL with that!!!!!!

    Hey there, @AbC5603a3556369.

    The Pogo team understands it is upsetting to see some of your favorite Flash games and features retiring. This decision was made for several reasons, including older technologies like Java and Flash being discontinued across the Internet, as well as the development of a new and improved Pogo site.

    As covered in the EA User Agreement, we are unable to provide any refunds. For more information, please also see the Terms of Sale.

    We truly value your passion for Pogo and appreciate you being part of the community! The Pogo Team is working hard on new and updated games and features for Pogo Early Access. We appreciate any and all feedback, as we’re building the future of Pogo with players like you in mind. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding!

    I totally agree..This new version SUCKS!  Too hard to see if it is a 2's game or not. No Lobby! Wow what a bummer....Waited 20 years for a crap improvement.  You thought the old dog puters were bad this are 10 times worse!

    Not happy..Want my member ship I renewed last month cancels and return my money!

  • P.S. Pogo..I am NOT a "NEWBIE" been a paying member for 20 years now. 

  • I want to play spades with my chose of partner,
    NOT a robot for my partner

  • @EA_Arrenai There is nothing improved about it. Your new reward system sucks . All you have done is take things away, and now you will give pogis for games that basically need power ups you pay for to ever finish. You took away tokens so people would have to spend gems at the mini mall if they wanted something new. Ea is a greedy unethical company with some real bad kharma coming.

    I don't care who I play with just as long as they play and not hold up the game need a timer in place so people who hold up game or just won't play because they are losing or they are a * and loser needs to be booted off so people who pay to play and can play without interruptions
