So this game is a steaming pile of shit.

Aside from the retardedly enormous amount of bugs they launched with (despite beta testing for months and apparantly fixing NOTHING from the beta testing), they gutted the gameplay of pokemon out until its not longer even a pokemon game. You literally just throw balls at shit and look at pictures. No battling pokemon, no leveling by fighting pokemon, and the pay2win is abysmal. Actually, gameplay pretty much makes no sense at all and the interface is complete dogshit. No tutorial on wtf to do (since its no longer the same pokemon game we all know and love) and no menu to even change settings or create a new character with

I went into this game with high hopes really wanting to love it, and just cant bring myself to accept this heap of shit as a pokemon game. This third party company literally just slapped the pokemon name on a free2playbutpay2win model and exploited it. If they had made this game right, i gladly wouldve just forked over the money to own the damn thing, but instead, they took a game that was already casual friendly and made it even more casual friendly my literally removing all of the gameplay and reducing it down to just pictures
>>
I was playing it for a few hours. I haven't been able to battle anything yet.

I am hoping that by leveling up, that I will be able to fight and level my pokemon against other players.

Will our Pokémon level as we battle them?
>>
>>693427998
you level them with candies

Damn i didn't even know this was out yet. Thanks for the heads up OP
>>
>>693428248
Not OP but this game is a decent time waster. After you reach level 5 its gets pretty interesting since each team with actual people are trying to take over gyms and have control over the city
>>
>>693427998
nope. no player based combat at all
you dont get to level your pokemon either.

your character levels by walking around and catching pokemon, but thats about it.

its not a pokemon game. its just got pokemon in it

>>693428248
theres nothing else to give really. battling in gyms is pretty much all there is to do other than stockpiling pokemon by throwing a ball at them repeatedly till they get in it. its like pokemon for retards that are too stupid to figure out the turn based system
>>
>>693428425
At which point it's just Ingress with 3 teams and no OP guys who have had dominance over everything for years.

thats where the pay 2 win comes in. basically whoever spends the most cash in real life beats everyone. you have 0 chance of winning against richkids with their moms atm cards

I'm also lv 8
>>
Aside from catching the same Pokemon over and over again, how do we get candies?
>>
>>693428953
True. I mean I've held the gym down my road since I hit level 5, which was a few hours after launch. But I live in a really poor neighbourhood in whangarei so I think I'll be good for a while.
>>
>>693429006
That's it. That's how
>>
Is there a way to play without going outside?
>>
>>693428953
I thought that was the case with Dokkan battle as well but I'm f2p in that game and rank around 20-25 each tournament. So you either need to be rich,lucky,or know every in and out of the game. I'm lucky and have 2 pokestops right next to me
>>
>>693426661
It's an open beta. PvP and trading will come. You can only battle by arenas atm.
>>
>>693426661
That and it only took an hour to find the biggest exploit in the game - you can catch any Pokemon, rare's included when you modify your zip code.
Whoops!
>>
>>693429087
I tried it already with fake gps, but it didn't worked for me...

such a low bait
>>
>>693429087
You can buy the item from the store which attracts the pokemon to you for half an hour but you have to spend real money for that
>>
>>693429128
>I'm lucky and have 2 pokestops right next to me
kek, I have 3 arenas next to me and around 15-25 pokestops and I am not even in a big city
>>
>>693429714
You get a few to start off with. But the lures you put on poke stops are way more effective.

Mfw I live in las Vegas and have pokestops and gyms everywhere. I literally don't even live that close to the strip (maybe like 8 miles?) And literally everywhere is pokestops and gyms
>>
>>693429901
Same, live in Vegas and I have pokestops and gyms everywhere.
>>
>>693429799
When I said close I meant I can get them while I'm still in my house. Within a miles radius I counted 6 gyms and 17 pokestops. I do give credit though for not being in a big city I live in Vegas so I expected it.

Yes. I expected a pokemon game. I expected to walk around the real world, find some shit, and battle it on the spot. That wouldve been fun as fuck. Then at some point run into another player playing and battle them on the street. THAT wouldve been fucking awesome.

instead we got some half baked piece of shit

>>693431502
i kept turning the camera off and on and moving around. then reset the game. it seems to work half the time. i dunno. the games so fucking bugged i dont even know whats working. most of the time it wont show my character moving and says failed gps. othertimes the character is wondering around on the screen by itself. hopefully they fix these bugs, but if they knew about all this during beta and still didnt fix it, then i aint holding my breath for a hotfix anytime soon

Just got back. Gym was guarded with only one thing over 200 CP Found out there's a bunch of Team mystic in my neighbourhood because I've held the nearest gym as blue for so long. Downside is they're all bogans and fucking gangster wannabies. Hell, at least there's enough to protect the gym now.

I love it how this game literally takes all the ingress portals and just randomly chooses what ones become Pokécenters and Gyms
>>
>>693435520
It's not random. But that's pretty much what has happened.
>>
>>693426661
If you want to find Pokemon then you must spend money on the incenses which attract Pokemon to your location averaging at 1 Pokemon every 6 minutes.
Poke balls don't matter and catching Pokemon is essentially a basketball game
Gyms are won by defeating the previous victors ai Pokemon which is the only form of battle
I was sold on the idea is be able to battle mates, fuck this shit. It's just a pointless collection game.

So far I've seen 5 gyms and just over 50 pokestops in my area.
I'm only level 3. But I've caught some pokemon. Only thing I'm concerned about really is the battery consumption and looking like a retard trying to catch these pokemon in public places. I tried the look as if you're texting method. Kinda pointress when you have to move your phone around to align yourself with said pokemon. I caught a FEAROW while I was taking a shit..

That's a lot of cp you got there

So the colors do represent something? I've seen gyms that are red, purple, yellow, and green. What's it mean? Like a specific team runs it? If so, do you get to choose your team or are you in that team by default? I'm so confused as to what I have to do. But I still have hopes. Besides it beats staying inside all day. I've bumped into some stranger playing he was catching a weedle. When I asked him the questions above he said just catch em all for now.

can someone explain how this game works?

>>693437349
its already been explained like 50 times. theres really nothing to explain. you just turn the game on and walk around. a pokemon pops up so you throw a ball at it. the end. theres no battling, theres no leveling. theres nothing. when you hit level 5 you can go to a gym and fight. other than that, theres really nothing to do but collect pokemon by throwing balls at them
>>
>>693437505
forgot to mention, you get level 5 by just walking around and catching pokemon. the pokemon themselves dont level
>>
>>693437505
thats still pretty cool.
sucks theres no battling obviously. but trying to collect all the pokemon could be fun.
