Re: Another anomaly series down... Another ENL win...
Yup, check the global challenge, except Nia made it fair by not making the global a winner-take-all 30% bump for the whole series. To be fair, they did pick anomaly sites for the last day so the res had a high chance of winning, but the ENL poured it on with cells/shards, which are a better global measure of teamwork and can't be botted.
Re: "Claim 1 Kinetic Capsule Program" is a horrible bounty
@milofarg If you think the kcap bounty should stay then the single mission bounty should be returned, yes?
Re: 2024 niantic still sucks / Let spoofers
I really don't know how Niantic work: you report a spoofer who doesn't even respect cooldowns between his actions and nothing is done; he continues to play and spoof!
You report an ingress player who is harassing players of the other faction on the chat and move and remove legit portals just to spite some players because he knows Niantic will follows his false reasons to remove them and do nothing when he is reported and it proves true; all that was done by Niantic is removing his messages from the chat but he continues to play like nothing ever happened!
But in the meantime some players who do nothing wrong are wrongly flagged and got a warning...
Is it still worth our time to bother reporting when Niantic does not seem to care the lest?
I come to think that from their point of view the more people playing is the more people susceptible of paying so it is in their interest to let cheaters continue to play and maybe pay...
Re: Can a banned player open a new account?
They might already have a leveled backpack they will just start using. Or at least they can login to Intel and track you. Niantic can do nothing about it.
Re: "Claim 1 Kinetic Capsule Program" is a horrible bounty
So you disagreed with removing the mission bounty (quote: "bummer for me and people like me"). However you still argue for removing the kcap bounty even that would be a bummer for other people (me for example) . Clearly, the "bummer for me" argument is neither universal nor valid.
The kcap bounty should not be removed. The three or four times I've had it since the start of the program I've had a kcap in standby or with 1km or so to go before claiming it. Even if it's not possible to claim one bounty one day so what? What's this obsession anyway about having a perfect bounty streak with zero effort like it's a human right? The mission bounty should not have gone either. Instead people should learn to prioritize.
Re: "Claim 1 Kinetic Capsule Program" is a horrible bounty
I do agree with making some of the programs easier.
R1, R4, R5, X5 = 4km
Peace Beacon = 2km
Introduce X8 program for 10km (30 X7 = 20 X8)
