Hey there, @zpatsfan1265.

As there was a technical issue along with your feedback, I went ahead and moved the post into its own thread to be worked out and tracked.

First off, thank you very much for the feedback. I'll share the troubles you're experiencing with the Pogo team.

As for the game not loading, was this something affecting all players or just your friend that joined you? I'd love to troubleshoot this with those affected.

    @abc1009779374 Hi abc. You have to "host" a room, tell your friend to hit "join" and tell your friend you are on playing spades. Also, you can't play with robots. If you're not playing with robots, you'll be visible to your friend. You have to just sit there and wait for your friend to join you and not play with robots. Otherwise, your friend won't see you. This would mean you would have to have your friend's personal information to text or email them that you would be on at a certain time. It's not like the old pogo, where your friend would have been able to join you at anytime while you were playing with robots. EA has made it very difficult for you to join your friend.

Me and my friend are in the Spades playing game together but cannot put one accross from the other to be on same team together. So dumb....you are going to lose people everyday because it is so aggrivating and it should be fun. Please help us angelmomma1

  Also had that problem. Was able to finally play with my friend today, stood up and the whole game was lost. When I tried to go back in to find my friend, she was invisible.

@EA_Arrenai it was a problem with it not loading. Point is, we spent way too much time trying to get in there, then it won't load.. Also, computer overheats with the HD games.. Thank you.

  Hey there, everyone.
  
  Thanks for the additional feedback regarding being able to find a friend and sit where you'd like to play on a team with your friend.
  
  @zpatsfan1265, regarding the loading issue, can you give the HTML5 troubleshooting a try to see if it improves loading for you? Please let me know how it goes for you.
