Progress-O-Meter

The Progress-O-Meter is a new feature in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2, and was released in the Trouble in Zombopolis: Part Two DLC. It is located in the Backyard Battleground outside the Town Hall. It is a large contraption created by the gnomes, and it is a gold machine with a large blue thermometer-like bar in the middle, a red bell on the top and three chests around it, coloured yellow, blue and red. This is where the player can keep track on the progress of the Community Challenges and see how completed the challenges are. As the community completes the challenge, the blue gauge will fill up. There are three signs on the gauge, saying 'Goal 1', 'Goal 2' and 'Goal 3'. When the gauge fills up to a goal, the bell will ring and fireworks will go off, indicating that the community has reached a goal. Also, when the community reaches a goal, a chest on the bottom of the Progress-O-Meter will become openable, allowing the player to obtain the rewards. The first chest (the yellow chest) will open on Goal 1, and will contain a small reward like coins, the second chest (the blue chest) will open on Goal 2, and will contain a decent reward like a sticker pack, and the third chest (the red chest) will open on Goal 3, and will contain an amazing reward like a special item. The community also has only one week before the challenge is over and the Progress-O-Meter resets. Also, the chests that are openable will only be openable for a limited time, so the player needs to open it as soon as they can.
