There's a stop near my work that get's lured occasionally during the lunch hour. I'm already numb to the spawn rates but I can't imagine how disheartening this is for new players: Lure Module posted:- 7x Ratata Niantic: If you want players to spend money on incense and lure modules (and not just pocket-purchase them), tune your RNG! A pack of MTG cards comes with something like 7 commons, 3 uncommons, and 1 rare/legendary. People are happy to buy these. Learn from this.

Eveything loads super slow and whenever I try to catch a pokemon it just hangs at a white screen, what the gently caress

Should be much more subtle if included at all. The zoomed in Trainer and huge text should have probably been included as a "Larger Fonts / Ease of Access" settings option. I'm getting noticeably more lagging / longer loading from this update as well. Buddy system and action poses are cool though.

Nearby system! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DiGGhpKpvE&t=66s Oh man this looks really dumb, manually tracking each nearby pokemon. But it's not like it's worse than the current system. At least we know where they (some?) are.

So far no problems with the update, caught a pidgey same as always. I hope Pikachu isn't the only one who changes stance after 10k; I wanna ride a dragon or fire unicorn

I really don't see the reason anyone spends money on them right now. Oh and for those who use your own maps (or any maps) the new version has changed the Unknown6 encrypted checksum in some unknown way. As soon as Niantic starts enforcing use of the update all maps and scanners will cease working. Shifty Pony fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Sep 13, 2016 |

zeldadude posted:DRATINI DRATINI DRATINI No, it was just me having an incompetent moment of typing.  I had a similar experience. I shared instructions with some Facebook groups I'm part of. Someone tried to tell me that I was trying to give everyone a virus and get their accounts banned. Honestly, what's going on is that a decent amount of people are scared of technology, not very bright, and lack initiative. These people make excuses ("you'll get banned!") for their jealously/self-loathing and lash out.

Maker Of Shoes posted:Wait, you actually believe this? Shifty Pony posted:Nobody is cheating. You just don't understand how App Store rollouts work. It's still going around the normal way of installing an update and getting it earlier than you should be. Like I said, it's minor since eventually everyone got it, but it takes some weird mental gymnastics to justify how it's not cheating. Dunno what else there is to say  My android friends just got their updates a little while ago.

I'm speaking for Fenarisk but I think he meant that this new tracking system only helps those that are surrounded by pokestops (ie. those that probably didn't need any help anyways). If you have no pokestops near you, you won't see any benefit what-so-ever.

Got the update. Now I can finally eventually live the dream of evolving a pokemon that doesn't end in "doran" or "weedle" edit: every time i close it now, it gives me a notification that I closed the app, and i can open it again if i want. Thanks, Niantic

Valid, though that's not how I read it at all. Sounded more like standard 'wah, not fair that some people get things first!!11' For anyone whinging that SF gets tracking first, of course they're going to test things rigorously in a small sample size before releasing it to the entire world, no poo poo. SF makes sense because that's where headquarters are, and enough people are playing to give valid feedback about how alternative tracking works in the real world.

I think they either they did it for backend stress testing or there is some issue that's preventing them from deploying it worldwide.

We know that the old footprint tracking system was causing stability issues, so they probably want to avoid a repeat of super tracking fails.

Like I said, it's minor since eventually everyone got it, but it takes some weird mental gymnastics to justify how it's not cheating. Dunno what else there is to say I think it takes mental gymnastics to think it's cheating. It's a system in place to protect less technologistic people. It's not like it's an alpha version of the game or something that someone ripped off their server. It was officially released, and the nature of the roll-out process is to limit the numbers in case something goes wrong. Nothing is wrong with the patch. You're free to update your game. There are even bug fixes, like the switching network/crashing thing. Like really, where does cheating come into it? People are getting a few candies a little sooner? I haven't even finished my first km on my jiggly. Is there something else? edit: actually. I could argue that people who got the patch from Niantic early are "cheating". they have an unfair advantage over people who don't have the patch yet.

That sounds like a really stupid work around though, shame on Niantic. What's next, DRM protection? Authenticator and Captcha on login? Secondary login servers?
