yes
>>25753437
it is 100% real

that is correct I guess, I cant seem to get past the loading screen because it keeps on asking me to turn off mock locations, even after I turned it off.

Im not on my desktop, I am asking for confirmation before downloading?
>>25753620
it is the official apk, the package name is com.nianticlabs.pokemongo
I will get arrested if I download this, right?
>>25753607
It just won't work
Is invite only

If you get "turn off the mockup location" just make sure you have your location activated.

It works, you get stuck at the loading screen though
>>25753419

Only Androidfags get the beta or what?
>>25753739
That works, but the loading bar still does fuck all for me
>>25753741
Only 4 levels data inside the apk.
However I got the items name and all the ui data names inside the files.
>>25753769
I dont think we have the iOS apk. They got the beta, just havent leaked damn shit.
>>25753769
yes, us "AndroidFags" only get the beta for now, but you AppleTreeHuggers of the un-superior OS get it later.

This is visual settings, so you might have not interest on this screenshot.
>>25753840
more ui shit
>>25753850
This screenshot has the 3 gyms, blue, red and yellow.
Aparrently you can allow mockup locations and disable the detector at start editing this file
I take it no one has been able to get past the loading screen yet?
How do the invites work? Is it just based on someone's G+ account? Or is there a code?
>>25753873
Nope, I've tried changing up my phone settings but nothing is working. Keeping the apk just in case someone "cracks the code"
mockup locations, hack detector (maybe)
>>25753873
Closed beta, only 3 tutorial levels with-in the assets data, but the data it's already semicompleted containing gym.
>>25753777
"IOS apk' no, it is called an IPA, short form for iPhone App. :O KNOWLEDGE
>>25753869
it looks more like the gyms can be 'claimed' or won by "Red team" "yellow team" or "blue team". PVP teams to encourage battling others/teamwork? That's a potentially exciting twist
>>25753620
Why is there a question mark in your post? Are you confused? Are you nervously lying?
>>25753912
They already announced this feature before. Gyms are neutral until someone takes them over. They're just like capture the flag points that can be taken over by others.
>>25753907
Stunfisk.
>>25753905
yo bro, do you think you could edit some shit and recompile the data so we can get past the stupid loading screen?

b)have a server side open slot for data
It's just not happening

The game is served side, your data is on the server, you play when you are connected to the server, the game will pretty much eat your data since it's searching for another trainers and pokemons all the time so I hope you have a plan with unlimited data with a stable connection
>>25754040
How did you get my Stick Figure nudes!?
Oh, there's something called "charged points" in the files, next to the attacks. So pretty much you will need to recharge between attacks.
I'm creating a pastebin account so I can post all that shit there and give you the links to search in the files while I dump more
>>25754034
See the post about the fact that it's a fucking beta.

Did anybody figure out how to get past the loading screen? I turned off mock locations.
>>25754083
NO THEY DIDNT!
>>25754083
As the tripguy explained, the server isn't available so it won't load at all. Might as well stop trying. It's eating your data.
>>25754082

It'll still need a stable connection + location services, but over both data and WiFi Ingress hasn't gone over 20mb for my total combined usage over a period of several months.Granted, I don't play it much, since I'm usually driving when I'm in an area with portals.
>>25754124

oh, by the way, the game has ads :3
>>25754160

>>25753658
Dumped the source with Dex2Jar and found where the progress bar is. I'm going to see if I can edit out some of the invite checks. I haven't worked with android in the past though.

I assume we can run a modified app with custom servers, in the same way than those hacked clash of clans apps with infinite shit, right?
>>25754261
I planned on cleaning up the source with java-asm then figuring out how it verifies if a user is in the beta. It's 4 am though and I have classes later so I'll be getting to this later. I got a math test in exactly 12 hours.
>>25754284
well, until then I will see if I can get the pokemon models
>>25753620
Fuck off child.
Has actual battles been confirmed yet?
>>25754338
Gym battles so far.
>>25754340
Yes, but anything about the actual mechanics?
Is it anything like the main games?
>>25754344
There are 3 gyms on the code, blue, red and yellow. We don't know if they are actually GYM's or Clan bases since "friendly decision" it's on the code.
Is this loading on anybody's end?
>>25754355
>>25754344
The main site alludes to them being clan bases
>>25754360
holy shit no, not unless you got an invite read the fucking thread
>>25754360
It probably tries to connect to a local server (USA, EU, JPN), the game detects mock-up locations so we can't check if connecting with a Japanese location will change anything.
Unless there's some Japanese in this board at this moment we can't tell if the apk checks for the invite or just the server location.
>>25754375
I'm in Japan. Not loading for me.

>The Pokémon GO Field Test has just begun in Japan. For those players who have received an invite, they'll be able to download the game through the special e-mail received. As time passes, more players are going to be entered into the Pokémon GO Field Test. We'll provide details about this as they come so keep checking back here.
>07:40 As expected, the Field Test won't show you anything if you are outside of Japan. When you begin, you have 20 PokéBalls at your disposal and can have up to 500 Pokémon. Niantic are currently removing people from the field test who reveal information, however.
>>25754401
Confirmed for invite only, we will see if we can bypass that,most likely we won't :3
I'm mostly curious about the models, if it's possible to rip those. From what screenshots I've seen they look like reused XY models, but I'm hoping for lower poly stuff for papercrafting.
>>25754437
I'm reading about how to extract the asset files, so I can't promise anything
>>25754437
However I'm tired so I might ass well give you the assets files and the text tutorial i'm reading
>>25754408
>07:40 As expected, the Field Test won't show you anything if you are outside of Japan.
Confirmed. Hopefully mock locations are hacked to work at the very least.
>>25754589
Last image.
>>25754589
Can a VPN or something like this do the work? If so I guess you would be stuck in one place, right?
Does anybody has any knowledge about extracting models and desunity?
>>25754605
I don't think it would be enough, see Ingress anti-location spoofing.
>>25754639
Nope but lurking
>>25754605
I don't have access to try.
I imagine all map elements of the game, PokeStops and Pokemon, must be specifically generated at particular landmarks and geographic regions, respectively, just like portals are in Ingress. Anywhere outside Japan wouldn't have that location data set up yet, but they might be using field testers to help crowdsource that data, just like Ingress does with portal locations. International users therefore might still have some influence as the test continues.
They already used internet connection location to filter out people who tried to sign up for invites on the website. I don't think internet connection matters for the app alone, just GPS, because the former is a shitty indicator for such a location precise game.
Well, apparently I need to get a program to rip-off the models, here's the tutorial.
>quaintproject.wordpress.com/2014/11/03/how-to-extract-game-assets-from-unity-android-game/
Since some people on this board work making models I assume they have the programs and I hope they rip them for us.
night
>>25754658
>Ingress anti-location spoofing
I briefly looked into it and there doesn't seem to be any particular measures against it beyond the simple mock setting check and a speed limit to how fast you can move. If this app is the same, you could simply set your location in Japan, wait enough time for it to believe you're there, then slowly shift it around Japan as needed.
They also mention an honor and reporting system in Ingress, but I don't know how much people would care in this game, either way a 'dishonest' group is bound to establish itself on XDA or elsewhere. I have already seen them hack the restrictions in the Miitomo app.
>>25754687
Don't worry, I'm sure a modded version of the game and tools to change the location will came out someday. A lot of app modders will be looking to get the "Pokémon GO Infinite Pokeballs" exclusive.
>>25754589

>All details revealed so far suggest that it won't play like Pokemon at all
Seriously, if the battles at least aren't in actual turn based Pokemon fashion then this whole thing can go fuck itself.
They've already deviated from how Pokemon works because you don't evolve pokemon by leveling them up (in fact I am beginning to think that your Pokemon do not level up at all).
What gameplay details have been released seem to treat the pokemon you catch less like friends or pets that you journey with and more like disposable items that you use to defend/capture gyms/strongholds. This is disgusting and completely against what Pokemon is supposed to be about.
I have this sinking feeling, Pokemon Go is going to be a disaster. A real shame considering how hard it should be to fuck up a concept as simple as "Lets make a pokemon ARG using phone GPS".
Seriously, is it really that fucking hard to just have the pokemon battles, leveling and evolution work like in the games? Apparently it is for Niantic because looks like we're getting Ingress: Pokemon Edition instead of actual pokemon.
>>25755819
Did you honestly think it would have the same battle system as the mainline games? This is a spinoff.
>>25755886
Why not? That's the damn point isn't it?
To make a pokemon game except in the real world rather than a normal game.
There is no reason to not use the same combat system as the main games. There is no point in it being pokemon at all if the only thing it shares with the franchise is name alone.
Pokemon's combat system lends itself perfectly to touch screens too. Not having the same mechanics is just lazy.
>>25755886
I didn't want the same battle system, but a battle system would have been nice.
IS THIS LEGAL?

So we can download it but it doesn't have pokemon in our side of the world yet?

>>25756176
Exactly my point. The more you think about this game like a Pokewalker+, the less salty you are about it.
>>25757235
>mfw we have to wait longer because they'll use "L-L-LEAKS!!" as an excuse to delay the game
They knew this shit would happen no doubt. They would've avoided all this bullshit if we all get it at the same time rather than "Let's just release it in Japan first because what are the odds someone is going to extract the .apk and magically make it possible to play in places other than Japan?" They fucking failed with Miitomo because the whole game is literally in English. Even the voices.
>>25757196
you didn't.
If you don't battle, see your pokemon you caught in battle, don't level them up, and they don't evolve, then wtf do you do?
>>25757286
But they do evolve, anon. By catching more pokemon of the same species. Which is retarded, but still

>talk about how the game is global and is meant to unite people

>>25757286
That's my problem with the whole thing. I didn't expect anything fancy once the Plus came out; if the battle system can be controlled with a button, it's probably not a very intricate system. I would have been happy with a Xenoblade-style auto-attack - press button to engage in battle, winner is basically who had the higher level and type advantage, if you wanted to catch it you could pull out your phone and tap the "Capture" button at low health. Hell, maybe if you pulled out your phone you could actually battle in interesting ways - use actual moves instead of basic attacks.
That's not what we got, though. Seriously, catch X Pokémon to get an evolution? That's a Rumble mechanic, not anything like the main series, and completely contradictory to anything actually interesting. How the hell do you fluff fusing together five Pikachu and a Thunderstone into one Raichu?
>>25757205
I want it.
>>25757331
Who is this guy again?
>>25757345
>>25757334
well if the balls cost money, that's why. so its really not so much about catching pokemon so much as it is paying for evolutions in a very sneaky way

Well i cant say i am surprised. I dont care if the game is good or bad, what really upsets me is the wasted potential.
A well implemented Pokemon GO could have been a game changing (no pun intended) scenario. Literally aMultimillion dollar idea.
>>25757679
No battle system. You can assign a pokemon to a "gym". There are three gyms in each area. Whichever gym has the most/best pokemon wins the area.
>>25757826
>Most/Best
How is that decided?
>>25757805
Appreciate the info.
>>25757805
Do you choose the starter or is it random?
Is it even one of the first 3 starters? I literally want a completely random Pokemon.
>"Here's your Ratatta. Eat shit."
>>25757859

"...using gen 6 assets," said the kid who had no evidence to support his claim.

Because they will get banned
How Gyms Work
When a trainer gains a high enough Trainer level (by gaining XP from actions in the game) they will be asked to join either Team Red, Team Blue, or Team Yellow's gym. You will then gain a 'Gym Membership.' You may even be able to see a list of other Gym members at the Gym. Your Trainer profile will be public-facing.
With a Gym Membership, all "friendly" Gyms become open to you for training, and non-team gyms become "enemy" Gyms where you battle. When you approach a "friendly" Gym, you can either deploy a Pokemon or train one. Your Pokemon must be at full health to be deployed. It is unclear how long training will take, but there is a 'Training Meter'. You get Experience and 'GP' (Gym Points) for training. (Unsure if GP are actually used, or an artifact of past versions. They seems to come into play where 'Forts' are mentioned in regards to leaving a 'Guard Pokemon'.) You can recall Pokemon from deployment.
Gyms have 'levels' and gain "prestige" as they gain levels. As Gyms gain prestige, they move up "tiers" which allows them to have more 'slots' for Pokemon on their team-to-beat.
Gyms appear to have a "Leader" who sets the order of Pokemon who will be battled in the Gym. (They may even have a crown, denoting they are the Leader.)

And what if it's unlisted and people just happened to get linked to it?I mean yeah they'll probably be banned but the needs of the many etc
>>25758570
They need to grow some balls
>>25758560
Because the game has a very faint watermark with a personal ID that helps Niantic track down leakers and ban them from the game
>>25758576
How Battles Work
When approaching a Gym, you can select a team of Pokemon and Battle the Gym Leader. Once you've selected your team to attack with, you can possibly also outfit them with items to "optimize" them for the attack. Battles can optionally take place in AR mode. Once you begin, the camera swoops down and you begin combat.
Battles are time-based and performed in rounds. You can run out of time. Pokemon have two stats at play: Health (HP), and Energy (stamina). It appears that you may fight with one of your selected Pokemon at a time and only focus on one enemy Pokemon at a time. Once you defeat the first, you 'advance' to the next Pokemon.
In combat, you have multiple options: you can choose to Dodge the enemy attack, use an item (like a revive or a potion), or launch an Attack of your own. You appear to have some control over these by using your finger and a crosshair. Dodging and attacking cost Energy (stamina). It appears that you 'charge' an Attack with your crosshairs and finger. Once a Pokemon has attacked, it has a period where it needs to re-target.
Each Pokemon appears to have a signature move that you can 'charge' and a quick attack. There are only mention of 232 moves total in the game. It appears some moves are upgraded or replaced at different trainer levels. You can switch which Pokemon you will attack with. There DOES appear to be official Pokemon 'types' in combat. You may receive a time bonus for having allies with you.
You can surrender or run out of time. You will be declared victorious if you defeat all the Gym Leader's Pokemon.
>>25758641
>Energy
Why do I have a bad feeling about this?
>>25758641
Better than automated battles i guess. Good thing i kept my expectations low, so i might slightly enjoy this gameAt least for what it is
>>25758641
At the end of battle, the number of Pokemon you've defeated affects the 'Prestige' (level) of the Gym as well as netting you XP as a trainer.
If you are the defending Gym Leader, it appears you can specify the number of charge attacks and quick attacks to perform, as well as which Pokemon to target from the attacking team.
Players appear to have a 'Rank' with Gym badges, unrelated to game accomplishments like 'km walked.'
There are also several things hinted at that imply type advantages and other multipliers can influence battle. These include:
Stamina Bonus, Base Stamina, Base Attack, Base Defense, Effectiveness, Individual Stamina, Individual Attack, Individual Defense, Type Effectiveness, Multiplier, Move Power
Pokemon Moves have several attributes of interest:
Has Type
Has Power
Has Heal
Has Accuracy Chance
Critical Chance
Has Stamina Loss
Has Trainer Level Min
Has Trainer Level Max
It is unclear if all or any or none of these attributes are at play in the current Gym battle system, but they certainly hint a deeper gameplay mechanic than simple Ingress bursters where you press 'fire.'
>>25758675
It's probably from walking like XM in ingress calm your butt we get cubes that store it by hacking portals (not attacking) as well
>>25758717
Catching Pokemon
Only Gen. 1 Pokemon are included thus far. Each has 1 or 2 signature moves. Pokemon seem to have been classified into categories: Normal, Legendary, Mythic, and given natures: Stoic, Assassin, Guardian, Raider, Protector, Sentry, and Champion.
You can still expect to enter AR mode if you wish. Balls operate as expected, with higher probability of catching with better balls. It may even be that the crosshairs you aim with are physically larger.
One interesting revelation is that Berries may be used. Our theory is they cause status changes to the wild Pokemon. Encountered pokemon can also 'Attack' - which we guess is a way to sap the player's energy so that they eventually have to flee the encounter if they don't pull it off.
There is no evidence of using a Pokemon to 'attack back.'
You can also throw with a 'spin throw' - which seems to have some effect on probability of successful capture. Finally, you seem to be able to get a bonus for the 'First Catch of the Day' each day.
You can flee an encounter.
>>25758731
Poke Stops
Poke Stops operate largely as expected, too. They are aware of the time of day, which bodes well for a lot of things. PokeStops dispense: Items, XP, Eggs, and Gems. They also seem to have a Cooldown period, as expected.
Items and IAP
Items are broken into 'tiers' and are acquired at PokeStops or purchased with Gems. You can find Gems at Poke Stops, or purchase them. The main Item Types are simply:
PokeBalls, Potions, Revives, Battles, Food (causes 'growth'), and 'Cameras'.
Item drops are influenced by trainer level and item-specific drop frequencies. Some PokeBalls or items seem to better for 'night' mode, while others are 'heavy' or allow 'multi-throw' or other interesting options.
>>25758745
Pokedex
The following are the interesting data for each Pokedex entry:
Number Seen
Number Captured
Has Captured
Has Encountered
Has Evolution Stone Pieces
Has Evolution Stones
There also appears to be descriptions and all the normal (weight, height, etc). Each individual Pokemon, on the other hand, has the following interesting attributes:
Cp
Move1
Move2
DeployedFortId
OwnerName
IsEgg
EggKmWalkedTarget
EggKmWalkedStart
Origin
HeightM
WeightKg
IndividualAttack
IndividualDefense
IndividualStamina
It is encouraging that this is tracked on the individual Pokemon level! We'll have to wait and see just how personal our relationship with each Pokemon really is.
You are also able to 'Release' Pokemon.
>>25758767
Eggs
The 'Egg Bag' shows capacity for 500 eggs with a progress bar of how many km has been walked for each egg.
Trading
Very little is revealed about trading. It seems likely that trading will be limited to a radius from your location or a Gym location. There is a Search (likely within a radius) for names of eligible traders. You may then make or receive requests, and the game will poll for responses until you receive an offer or decline. If there is agreement, you can each select your Pokemon and the trade will be accepted. There is mention of 'Connection Lost' during a trade. We don't know more than this.
>>25758791
500 eggs? Christ.
How long does it take to hatch these things?
>>25758791
>Bike Simulator IRL
>>25758825
Look at game data. I would assume that many steps irl.
>>25757805
Allright, so what matters the most is the following:
>18 pokémon types are present in the game
There are currently 18 types in Pokémon. Out of all those 18 types, there is no Dark type in gen 1 unless you count Mega Gyarados. That could mean that either Megas are in the game or that it will not just be the Kanto dex that is available.
OP here, HOLY SHIT you guys are amazing! We pretty much know exactly how PGO will work!
>>25758791
Can't wait to find a long straight path to walk up and down

*All right
>>25758675
What? it's just stamina.
It will be a variable for battle, i guess it looks more like "anime battle" where they avoid everything.
>>25758889
>no graveyard
Dammit, I wanted to stomp around looking for ghosts.
