What confuses the shit out of me is how the fuck they forgot to add the feature of being able to battle your friends. I mean, what the fuck. I was going to install this garbage and asked a few friends about it and they were like, "Yeah, nah, you can't really battle each other..."

This is the problem I have with the game's level system. You might as well not bother evolving any of the Pokemon you catch in the first 10-15 trainer levels, they'll all be outclassed by the ones you'll catch after that.

this anon >>345168669 is correct. Just about every pokemon now I run into is around 200-ish, and if you evolve them, their CP goes up by at least 400-ish.

I don't know what the max is but its determined by your trainer level. That arc when you view one of your caught pokès shows you the limit it can be at your current level, the higher you go the high cp it can be.

I'll post what I posted in the other thread

>criticized the game on /r/pokemongo
>Got down voted to oblivion, abused by everyone then banned.

The insane fandom around this game is just absurd.

PokemonGo could be one of the best casual games ever made in my opinion, the problem is though this game was launched way too early and the game mechanics in their current form are basically complete trash.

>Spawn rates are fucked.

There are far too many spawns of roughly 5-10 generic pokemon, overwhelmingly dominated by Zubat and Doduo, this means hunting pokemon becomes quickly tedious when 90% of all encounters will be one of 10 pokemon and a further 90% of those ones will be just 2 pokemon, Zubat and Doduo.

>Spawn zones are fucked.

Basically the game is unplayable outside of the medium-high density urban areas.

>No real metagame

Gyms and teams are completely pointless. There is no point to hold Gyms except to get coins to buy items to help you hold Gyms, there is no area control mechanic, no real team mechanics or anything. This part of the game is literally pointless. An easy fix for this would have been to increase rare pokemon Spawn rates for team members within the vicinity of a Gym they held, but not even that. Also the Gym game is completely pay to win since Lucky Eggs/trash pokemon evo spamming is OP as fuck.

>Catching pokemon is fucked

Radar is completely and utterly broken, literally no real way to tell if you're homing in on pokemon, 1 out of every 5 pokemon you will fail to catch due to the Pokeball dropout glitch. No way to improve chances to catch rare pokemon. Auto random Spin Ball on higher level pokemon is literally just pay to win bullshit

No way to track pokemon and their locations, no way to tell really what pokemon types will spawn where apart from water type

Currently the game as it stands is just Ingress with 10% of the polish of Ingress.

From my understanding, this is pretty much a mobile version of the Safari Zone. No weakening, just balls and bait to be used.

What I was surprised by was everyone going apeshit on me for literally suggesting ways the game could be improved and how it's sad it was released in this current state.

>Gyms give you stardust over time. Quit spreading this bullshit.

Too capture more gyms, which is completely fucking pointless.

The whole Gym game is 100% pointless, the only rewards to capturing a gym is to get more shit to capture gyms except there is no point in capturing gyms.

As I have said, if you had increased pokemon spawn rates for your team around Gyms you've captured, that would be a point to the Gyms, if there was some area control game like Ingress, that would be a point to the Gyms.

The current Gym game is literally just a rushing game of who can spam lucky eggs to double exp rate to get high level pokemon to hold onto gyms that currently serve no purpose.

This is a huge problem at the core of Pokemon Go's design, why do the Gym battling if the only current point of it is to show off Pokemon with funny names?

Yeah it sucks but I hope you guys realize what they are doing; wait until popularity dies down a little and then release content to bring everyone right back in. First will be trading, then gym battles. Maybe new pokemon eventually but I am not sure, this is gaining huge momentum with the crowd that quit when gen 2 came out

FYI everyone looking at this image should know it is entirely fucking inaccurate.

Every second person I know playing the game has either a Magma, Electabuzz or snorlax

I have an aerodactyl and I saw 2 others today in a single gym

My missus catches voltorbs every day on her way to and from work

Pinsirs also pop up everywhere around the gym closest to where I work and zubats are more common that rattata and pidgey

Caterpie, venonat and doduo do show up anywhere but are quite uncommon

This is horseshit. I've only seen a single Ghastly's silhouette once, never seen Drowsee period, and only seen 2 Meowths. On the other hand, I've capture at least 20 fucking Exeggcute, and numerous Staryu, Pinsir, and Scythers.

The tracking and refresh is totally fucked.

At work when myself and my colleagues are on smoko, we haven't had this problem at all. If we do, a simple fix is to restart to app to force a refresh on the pokemon around us.

Usually if something pops up for one of us, its there for all of us. The same goes for lures. Incense is random.

There is an issue if you have the app open, If i go to the supermarket with the app open in my car, when I get home the pokemon at the supermarket will still be nearby with 3 footsteps which is totally fucked. Restating the app refreshes the nearby pokemon and all the shit from down the street disappears
