Niantics owes me 7 incense.
>>344317085
It's not their fault you wasted your resources during what is essentially a turbulent beta.
You should have known better.
It's just Niantic, retard
There's no s
fix the server now. reeeee
>>344317313
It is there fault when they publish a game claiming it works as intended, I use a time sensitive product and the game won't allow me to actually use the product. It is in every way their fault.

>>344317919
At most they would owe you one incense. Every incense after that is 100% you being a fucking dope that can't learn.
7 fucking times? You serious?
Just save your shit up until you know the servers are stable.
>yfw waiting for Pokemon Trainer Club to go out of maintenance
Was niantic other game this bad serverwise?
>>344319657
I literally said fuck it and made a Google Account, anon. I waited at least 10 hours yesterday for that shit to work. I made a google account and got on in 10 minutes.
It sucks cause I have a really old Trainer Club account so it wouldve been cool to connect it, but at this point I just wanna play.
>>344319713
Yes, in the sense that they had the same size server but people didn't play as much so it didn't crash like Go does.
>Head to local Pokestops at library and Fitness center
>game says that there's an Oddish, Wartortle, and Eevee nearby

I wanna delete this fukken app but it's giving me incentive go outside even though it's hot as shit
>>344319713
It had its hiccups but the player base was a million times smaller cause it wasn't pokemon.
>>344318442
No you stupid fucker, Jesus.
Can't even make an account to play this shit.
>>344319836
33 hours and still tryint to resist, and same as you I have a really old account from the dream shit from gen 5 times, maybe even older
>>344319042
Shiet, yesterday i was powering up a Raticate. Got it over 300 cp. Then it just vanished. I didn't log out, servers didn't crash. It was just gone. All that dust gone.
>>344319657
I'm fine with waiting. The game barely works as it is, so this just forces me to be patient.
>>344320361
Yeah mine's probably about as old, I remember doing the Dream World beta or whatever it was called.
I wanted to sign up with it hoping to get some cool goodies or something, but as it stands right now I think youre better off enjoying yourself with a Google account and do Trainers Club when it isn't garbage.
>>344320369
Holy fuck thats hilarious. My condolences Anon.
>Game crashes right after the Niantic logo
>Apparently it's because my screen is too small
Why is there no option for this shit? This is why I hate cellphone games. I don't want to buy a new phone just for a bigger screen.
>>344317085
Is it possible to get incense without buying them with real dollars? I just started playing today.
>>344317313
>what is essentially a turbulent beta.
It's not a fucking beta, holy shit. It's the full release.
>>344321734
You get one at level 5 and get money from controlling gyms.
>>344321923
You can't get them from pokestops?
>>344321110
What phone do you have? I'm using an old ipleb 4S and it works even though the beta said I'd need 5S/C or better due to the screen.
>>344322049
Apparently you only get balls, eggs, potions and revives from stops.
>>344322109
An LGL34C Optimus Fuel
>>344322341
You should Get the Optimus Fuel XLG, it has a slightly larger battery and a screen thats an extra 2mm across in each direction.
What does 3 foot mean?
>>344321916
And it's KNOWN to be a shitty a release with server issues that may as well have been beta with the way they've been trying to stagger its release because of that shit while they scurry to get it working.
Yet he still let himself get fucked 7 times.
He's a moron.
So, realistically, what is the fucking point of NEARBY?
No one can figure it out.
The blinking happens every 30 seconds no matter what
>>344322737
Just saying, it's not a beta. I'm not too satisfied with it either, I spend so much more time on the loading screen than actually playing.
I want to like this game, but I can't when it only works almost never. I can't fucking play ever.
>>344323028
give it a week or two
This is like the most awaited app for celphones after integral/derivates solutions in the history of mankind
>>344322856
Literally just shows how far a walking distance Pokémon are
Some are right in your circle others are a small walking distance usually shown by how many footprints are under their photo
>>344322478
I'll look into it thanks. Really don't want a new phone just because of one app though.
It's up faggots
>>344322856
Gotta play a game of hot and cold. You know you're going the right way towards somethign when it's number of footprints go down.
>>344323530
Nothing ever fucking goes down.
walk the whole neighborhood, three paw everything
Once Nintendo gets a taste of that f2p money they will be forever dead. Enjoy the end of Nintendo, friends.
>>344318679
Thank you immunity cat.
>>344323663
that pic isn't pokemon go
>>344323663
this isnt nintendo this is pokemon company and they already have phone apps
>>344323641
Either you aren't going the right way or the server went down and your game just isn't crashing. Probably the second if you walked in a circle. If it was a big circle they actually might be inside the circles you walked. If it was small they are probably outside.
I occasionally have issues too. It's not a guarantee but heading to the moving grass usually increases your chances of finding something.
>playing mobileshit
>>344323898
>this isnt nintendo this is pokemon company
Nintendo sees all profits from "POKEMON COMPANY" games
>>344324046
So what should I do when something shows up with three prints?
Start walking until the pawprints go down, if they don't go down then walk a different direction until they start going down?
>>344323898
Nintendo owns a large part of the Pokemon company.
To act like they don't have sway there and understand what's going on there is stupid.
>pokemon trainer club will never ever let you log in
I guess I'm done with this "video game"
>>344324268
Pretty much yeah. That's why i called it a game of hot/cold cause it really is. Another thing, the pokemon in nearby are in order of proximity to you so if they are all 3 prints but the one you want just went further down the list probably go the other way.
Also like I said grass seems to have higher pokemon activity so walking towards it is a better chance of guessing right usually.
So how "free" is Pokemon go?

There isn't much of a real game here. Is it all just nostalgia?
The AR doesn't even work right almost all the time.
>>344324587
You can play it and get all 151 maybe without spending anything on the game
>>344324587
depends on where you live
for some people they are near enough to a bunch of stops and will never need to pay a cent
others, like myself, live miles away from a stop and would likely need to buy balls if I wanted to complete the pokedex
luckily it's a moot point since the game doesn't work
>>344324813
>since the game doesn't work
Eh?
>Catching pokemon is just flicking balls

O-okay. It's a cool concept I guess. I managed to catch a handful of pokes using an incense, strongest being a cp26 abra.
>>344325785
Abra is a nice fucking catch. I wish one would show up for me and I'm level 9.
I swear the gps on my phone only works at night. Can the servers being shit fuck up the gps as well?
I walked around my block a few times last night at 2 AM because there were charmanders near me.
>>344317085
This game proves that if you stick Pokémon on a pile of shit everyone will play it.

Walk around your neighborhood while using an incense and you are bound to find different pokemon. Besides only 151 are out at the moment, if all of them were out, there would be so many different pokemon......like sentrets and bidoofs.....oh god the bidoofs...

>>344327169
Not necessarily as I had that happen to me but I still had the pokemon when I restarted.
>>344317085
Im out of Pokeballs and theres seemingly no pokestops near me. Aside from buying them is there another to get pokeballs?
If this game keeps shitting itself like this, it's not gonna last in popularity in 2 weeks. People will lose interest. They need to get their shit together.

Server stability depends on location more than anything. Plenty of people live in places where servers are stable 24.7.

I still can't log in because I chose to create an account with Pokemon Trainer Club.Threads like this make me think I'm not missing much.
>>344328505
They are separate accounts, so your name and progress will be different
>>344317313
This is what the game industry has become. Releasing unfinished games and getting you to pay out the ass for patches and DLC.
The golden age is dead.
Do we know if pokemon weight and height have any effect?
Eg. To CP level when powering up etc?
Also, my pokebros.
I own all 3 gyms in my area and I intend to keep it that way.
>>344328702
Nobody knows how most of the game works
I mean people do not know that you are supposed to throw a pokeball when the inner circle is largest for an increased chance even.
I mean the game is fairly bad

Why is this such a goddamn shitshow? Were Niantic and TPC unaware that they were sitting on potentially the most popular and profitable mobile game of all time? They fucked up the launch and they'll never be able to reproduce it. This was their chance and they ruined it, and it's STILL the highest grossing app in the App Store.
>>344328505

I assume this wouldnt be a problem with a PTC account, but no one can log into that right now.
I don't think I've ever played a buggier game
>>344329195
I didn't have any issues whatsoever during the afternoon though.
I don't understand what you're trying to say here.
Shit worked fine on my end.
How do the "nearby" pokemon work? I have a arcanine at 3 steps but I can't find it. The thing won't blink?

>>344329460
Zero footsteps means it should be in your circle and load soon.
One means it's pretty close and you just need to approach it.
Two means it's within walking distance and should only take a couple minutes to find it.
Three means it's somewhere on the visible map and may not actually be accessible.
All relatively speaking.
The grass doesn't always mean there's a Pokémon there, but if one is nearby it's usually represented on the map by it.
>>344329257
you can use the same google account on different devices dude. that's the point of it being linked to an account and not a device.
>>344328696
To be fair, it's a free mobile game. It's not like people paid $60 for it like say Fallout or Asscreed.
dumb question, but if I go to a cemetery will there be ghost pokemon? If I am going to be creeping at a cemetery with my phone, I want to at least get some non Pidgey shit.

>>344324189
>Nintendo sees all profits from "POKEMON COMPANY" games
They don't.
A fraction goes to Nintendo because they also own Pokemon. Most goes to TPC.
>>344330134
Hang in there, bro.
>>344330323
2/3 is a fraction
>>344330134
Except they aren't judging you, and you logically know this, so you should just get over the feeling that they are.
>>344330313
Look for some grass to pop up the same relative distance away the footsteps tell you, and walk toward it.
You can select a Pokémon in the nearby menu to replace the three nearest with that specific one's distance so you can monitor it while having the map up. If you're approaching the right spot if grass, it's footsteps should decrease. Otherwise, keep looking, and you may as well catch what was in the grass you were approaching anyway.
>>344330435
So is 1/3. What's your point?
>>344330134
Anon. They probably have no fucking clue what you do on your phone unless you're using the AR camera.
People walk with their phones out all the time.
>>344319836
How do accounts work? Can I log in through Google, make my character, take a good name, and then log in with that named character when the PTC accounts get fixed? Or will that name I chose on the Google account be taken when I try to enter it in the PTC account?
>>344330459
Nah, that's some straight reddit-tier hugbox bullshit. Everyone makes judgements on people in public, more so if they are very strange like the shutins on 4chan. That anon isn't stupid, he feels like he's being judged because he knows people, including himself, judge others.
I do agree that you should get over it if possible, but in order to do that, yo have to acknowledge that they do.
>>344329824
I left a 580 arcanine to defend my gym at this library near my house and the next day it was taken over by 2 bluefags that left 200ish mons. Does that mean they can just keep throwing themselves at it with weak as shit pokemon until they finally beat it?
>>344317085

>>344330720
Nope. I've seen so many fucking people walking around town with their phones out and it's always obvious. You can tell from half a block away that they're playing pokemon because the map + avatar + colors are instantly recognizable.
>>344327064
How the hell do you rename the mons?
>>344330773
>more so if they are very strange like the shutins on 4chan
Literally no one will know you're a shut in unless you act like it.
Also no one judges people just on the fly unless they make a show of them selves or look strange. And by "strange" I mean defect or can't tell if he's a man or a woman strange.
No one is judging you if you're simply going outside.

Um..guys? help?
Lowly windows phone pasant here
how does this game work?
can you actually battle or is it just catching and levelling pokemon?
>>344324962
The server crashes constantly, like every 20 minutes making it insufferable to play when you're out and about since you're kicked back to the login screen which takes multiple attempts just to sign in. Even if you can get past the log in screen several parts of the game are just staright up busted.
Half the time when fighting a gym battle the server hangs leaving the gym's pokemon above 1hp no matter how much you attack it while it wipes out your entire team.
Right now it's only really playable if you live in a podunk suburb where nobody is contesting gyms or you happen to live or work on top of pokespots you can easily farm every 10 minutes.
Imagine if this game was actually good and not an obvious quick barebones cash-in. Nintendo fucked up they could have something that prints money for years, this will be dead in a month
>>344331020
Like I said, the shut-ins from 4chan would definitely set off an alarm. Every single person I've seen playing Pokemon has been a disgusting lardass or nerd. The only person that caught me off guard was an old lady playing it, which in itself was something to judge her on.
>>344331209
All of the data is stored server side like a typical MMO.
That's probably why their servers are having such a hard time with the game.
>>344331172

Pretty much. The battle system heavily favors attackers and you can practically take over any gym if you tap hard enough. It's a total joke.

Thanks, dude.
>>344331374
Gotcha.. I mean I dont own an iPhone yet, so I assumed games were just stored on Apple's servers just like Google Play games get stores on Google's servers. But maybe thats not the case with POGO.
I'd still prefer to use my PTC account, but that shit isnt working.
>>344331410
Shit. My mistake.
>>344331298
What on earth would compel someone to get a Windows phone?
And to answer your question, its just catching and leveling. You can "battle" but just in gyms to try to take over them.
The game is buggy as fuck and the servers are total garbage, so you arent missing much at the moment.

I don't understand how major companies are always never prepared for launches. Blizzard servers are always dogshit at launch.
>>344324587
It's "free" if you can become the leader at a bunch of gyms. Which is easier if you have stronger pokemon thanks to drops.
>>344331973
Incense does attract them to where ever you are. Seems like one for about every 5 mins.
>>344330313
>>344330653
Another thing about selecting a pokemon on the bottom left, the closer you get to that pokemon selected, the faster it will "blink", like a game of Hot and Cold
>>344331973
incense spawns a pokemon on you every 5min guaranteeing 6 of them.

Pretty simple really, people will spend unreasonable amounts of money on the game anyway so they have no real reason to care about proper server infastructre as long as the game is just barely functional.

is that just molten fucking butter?
>>344332271
Yep, that's pretty much the video game industry these days.
Bullshot your way to victory and people will pay regardless.

You guys realize every other country without official release is playing too, right? Panama (Central Murika) reporting in, we're all playing this shit. I'm pretty sure that has something to do with servers shitting on themselves every so often.
>>344332423
I wouldn't be surprised seeing as we live in a world where deep fried butter is a thing.
>>344332250
Combat points. That's how strong the pokemon is. You can increase a pokemons cp with stardust and candy by catching duplicates of that pokemon and transferring them.

What's the point of having pokestops and gyms in locations where the app is unoffically released?
They should have just kept the game in beta and just waited to do a global release when they can properly support all territories.
>>344332609
>What's the point of having pokestops and gyms in locations where the app is unoffically released?
They're probably based on landmarks on google maps you know.
>>344332609
It's randomly generated from Google Maps database.
>>344332609
What makes you think that because Panama, or the rest of the world for that matter, has pokestops it means they're ready for release? Regardless, even if they already have the map set out of everybody, you can always say they were testing for stability issues on some countries first so this exact scenario doesn't happen?
Just saying. It's not in the Playstore or the Appstore. iPhone users had to change their country to NZ to get the download to appear.

So what exactly are the rustling grass patches for? I'm literally standing on one as we speak and nothing. All the pokemon nearby are 2-3 steps away, too...what the fuck is this grass shit for?
>>344332778
>>344332793
Wrong. They're directly taken from Ingress data, the game which GO is based off of.
Not that it matters, they could have easily just limited the locations to specific regions while still in beta and figure out how to support the game globally without the servers shitting themsleves every 20 minutes
>>344332950
>It's not in the Playstore or the Appstore
It is if you're in North America. Also nothing you said excuses the fact that they're clearly not ready for official release anywhere let alone the countries they decided are no longer in beta.
DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A GPS SPOOFER THAT EMULATES WAKLING
one that the game cant detect, obv. tried one already and was told no gps signal available.
>Dude! Let me in! I'm a Pokémon!
>Don't you believe in Pokémon?
>>344333223
>"Hey, the game is ready. Let's release it on some countries first to test the waters."
>Everybody and their moms get ahold of the APK
>Servers crap themselves
Who would've thought.
>>344333226
I haven't needed one. All I do is turn my wifi on and off and my avatar walks around the map for me.
>out of pokeballs
>pokestops aren't actually pokemarkets like i thought, they just give you 2 pokeballs
>local gyms are taken over by red team so I can't get coins
>>344333223
Where do they get Ingress data from?
>>344333491
Crowdsourced from Ingress players who submit landmarks. They disabled this before Pokemon GO came out due to backlogging.
>>344333641
Then why are all the images of these landmarks in GO from Google Maps?
>>344333443
They give you Pokeballs about every 5 minutes dude.
What are the benefits of logging in with a PTC account over a google account?
>>344333752
Because Google owns the developers who made Niantac. Literally every pokestop and gym in GO is a portal from Ingress.
>>344330773
If your ugly or weird people judge you anyways so why give a shit what some jaded dick bag thinks?
>>344333996
You tell me.
>>344333409
>Hey, this game that's unstable even when the servers are up is totally ready.
>Let's release it on some countries first to test the waters without disabling landmark data in countries we're not releasing it
>Everybody and their moms totally won't get ahold of the APK or change their phone's region in order to play this hotly anticipated title based on a major well-known brand
Fucking genius
>>344333824
What the fuck kind of lie is this? I've been sitting here with it open for an hour and I don't magically just get pokeballs out of thin air?
>>344333934
>Because Google
>>344333226
just google KILL YOURSELF.apk
>>344329315
I've seen similar corruptions happen to hearthstone on samsung smartphones
it was on my friend's phone so I sadly don't have any pics
No confirmation on the Internet as of yet but will there be bans for apk users in North america? Canada need to go
>>344334108
No the stops, silly anon
I was kind of hoping my dealership would have been a gym. It would have been funny to see neckbeards harrased by salesmen. Also does it matter what order you power up and evolve in?
>>344333934
So in otherwords, all the data comes from Google. That's what I thought.
>>344334067
Which exactly proves my original point behind the reason of why there are pokestops.
If the servers are shitting themselves because they're stupid has nothing to do with pokestops being or not being in a region.
Have a good day
>>344333641
>They disabled this before Pokemon GO came out
Fuck, no wonder. That was pretty smart on their part actually, I'm sure a lot of people got the same idea to download Ingress to make their house a Pokestop like I did. Too bad even if they re-enable it it seems only really highly used portals are Gyms
Also, ingress is confusing as fuck.
>>344334330
Except the game is unplayable without any pokestops any gyms in a region.
You actually proved my original point, it has everything to do with the servers shitting themselves. Or do you think they think they couldn't disable pokestops in regions they weren't ready to release in?
>>344334259
>>344334152
Anon said they were "randomly generated from Google Maps database" which is factually incorrect. The developers are owned by Google, but each pokestop and gym is USER GENERATED from the developer's previous game, Ingress.
>>344324316
They only own 1/3rd of the company.

>Nintendo sees all profits from "POKEMON COMPANY" games
Except they don't.
Out of TPC, GF and Nintendo, Nintendo has the least ownership of the franchise.
They're literally seeing the scraps as profit.
>>344335118
Where's your citation that they're randomly generated?
Show me a single pokestop or gym that isn't in Ingress.
>>344328845
Same reason my pentium 166 can't run Windows10
>>344335285
So why doesn't Da Pokemanz company just leave Nintendo and go multiplat?
>>344335295
>no source
Thought so
>>344335452
Because GF only wants to make them on handhelds because they can do the two game gimmick there easily and the only other big handheld systems are Sony ones and they sell like shit compared to Nintendo's.
>>344335573
>demands source without having a source for the original claim
ok anon
>>344333934
that's not entirely true, ingress has a few more portals where I live than GO has stops and gyns
how can i spoof this shit succesfully?
>>344335452
Also I suppose they have a better deal set up with Nintendo profit wise.
>>344335689
Read the sentence carfeully.
>Literally every pokestop and gym in GO is a portal from Ingress.
Is entirely, 100% literal fact. There are Ingress portals where pokestops and gyms are missing but not the other way around.
>literally standing on a leaves patch
>nothing fucking happening
EXPLAIN. What the fuck are the leaves for
pic unrelated
>>344335910
leaves just show where a pokemon MIGHT be. They don't actually guarentee that they'll spawn there.
>>344335884

>Interesting, got a source?
>LOL no! Got a source that apples are RED? DIDN'T THINK SO! Apples are pink after all!
Nice one, kiddo.
>>344336130
Citation is playing ingress and seeing that user submited portals blatantly share the same locations as stops/gyms.
>>344335910
aesthetic
>>344336025
So what the fuck is the point? if I go to one and nothing hapens do I just ignore it and go find another leaves patch? or am I supposed to just wait at the leaves for a spawn?
>be at home
>no pokemon ever
i guess that's what i get for not living in a city
>>344336362
Not adequate proof.
There are gyms/spots in my area where there are no portals.
