Re: Ingress in 2024
Tasks need to be finished. There is so much opportunity here, not only in agent engagement, but in overall use of the game.
Drones need some love. Still annoyed these can be returned so easily. Go on a vacation to some cool city and my drone ends up returned before my flight home has landed, that’s lame. I also think different modes of travel would be slick. Would love slightly further hops or traveling by links.
Events and not anamolies. Would love a return to a 7-10 day event with some silly goal that takes planning and resource management. Make 1331 links or do 1000 hacks, etc. Get some medals involved. I think we had one in 2023? I swear when I started they had them every few months. I’m glad some of y’all can build triangles for AP everyday and stay content, but I’m not and I’m boredddd! FS/SS, boring… I like routine in some aspects of my life, but Ingress shouldn’t be it, so doing the same things all the time is kIlling me…
I say this all as someone who has mostly stopped playing due to some things I need to focus on in real life, but also because I’m just bored and don’t have anything holding my attention with the game. Chipping away at onyx medals could be a thing, but just…not my thing right now unfortunately.
The recent influx of Pokestops in India
Niantic has added various POI on their own using real world data into their games in India multiple times. Recently, it was the biggest such update in India with millions of new stops and gyms being created in India.
The only difference this time was they forgot the game that provided the base for pokestops and gyms: Ingress.
Not only the ingress community can greatly benefit from addition of new portals but it will encourage new players to join in that hesitate because of low portal density in India. The game will only benefit from addition of new portals. It will become bigger and better for everyone and their will be more acitivty and more players playing which will only provide more revenue. So, it makes no sense not to include the new POIs in Ingress.

Instead of tagging brian or thia, why not tag our community manager?
Re: Ingress in 2024
I agree scanning is annoying in the dark. Alternatively, scanning of nearby portals can be a possible method to override passcode missions if the agent is unable to enter the correct passcode.
Re: Ingress in 2024
Some possible ideas :
- Ability to reorder ingress character medals (or middle ground will be to pin up to 6 badges on the top row to showcase profile)
- Intel website/Mission creator website layout refresh (It's still showing redacted interface even though we have moved on from 1218 for like 5 years, Also we have new actions like scan portals/overclock portal which can be introduced in mission creator )
- Better way to allow agents to search missions by series (Something like NIA filter tag but agent can search by a certain series or a certain mission creator)
- New avatars for scanner (The archetype series is still incomplete and the last avatar we had was Aerodyne from 2021)
- Scanner skins to customize the interface
- New global scoreboard mechanics (Other than MU, things like player daily actions should contribute in scoring)
Re: Scanner has no information about the kcap challenge
nothing in the news, could have put it there easy if wanted, they did with t-shirts sale more important i guess
Add a new anniversary teir.
The year 11 badge looks great.
But what I think would be an awesome thing to add is wings to that bagde.
So my suggestion is this.
If you have reqursed and if you from January 1 of the current year until the end of the anniversary event gain 40Million AP.
Then your Onyx badge will be upgraded with wings.
I think this can be a good incentive to get put in the extra mile each year.

Re: Personalized Profile?

Re: Tumbleweed and the dusty road...
There is a tonne of bugs that need fixing
Some of these require next to zero coding effort
