Re: Campfire Ingress Official group is chaos
Like everything else they do, get something to a beta level, release it, maybe do an update or two and then abandon and move onto the next new thing...
Feature requests: sort keys by faction, upgrade shields
I have been playing this game for years and will probably never stop.
The only two simple features I have ever wanted added are the ability to sort my keys by faction for easier recharging and a way that I can upgrade defenses similar to the way that you can upgrade resonators.
Likely neither will ever be added.
Re: New Double AP 2sDay Medal
I'm firmly in the 'this doesn't rank a medal' camp. Every subset of game mechanics does not need its own medal.
Re: A Case for Shutting Down the Game
The people that still have fun with the game? Believe it or not, people can have gripes with something and still have fun with it. Is Ingress a polished game? Not really. Could there be more events and a proper story. Absolutely. Do I still have fun? You bet I do.
If you truly do not have any fun with Ingress anymore, like none at all, you can and should leave, otherwise you just make life miserable for yourself and others
Re: New Double AP 2sDay Medal
Look, I love badges and would happily take as many as I can. I don’t think this needs one.
Re: Campfire Global Rollout in the next few days
So? Don't tell me there are people here that are actually excited and using this? I mean it's been months and I've never ever seen anyone actually use this 'feature'.
Re: A Case for Shutting Down the Game
As with anything, if it becomes boring and pointless, quit.
Niantic make enough money to easily entice more players into gameplay and offer monthly incentives for subscription players..
They could do Pogo/Ingress crossovers letting pogo players know Ingress exists.
In the single year (just over) I've been playing I've seen newbies come and go because it's not enticing to them.. some people have better things to do with their lives than play a game. Others are addicted to it.
**If Niantic ever shut down Ingress, I'm sure someone will buy the rights and give a reboot of sorts...
Re: Will Ingress be part of the reorganization within Niantic Labs?
Well it's no surprise player numbers shrink through natural attrition and ZERO advertising/support for the product. If Ingress does go, the only people to blame are Niantic/Ingress team management.
Re: Remove Overclock
Don't like it, don't use it. Like it, use it.
The Dev is done, there's no point removing it now since it can be completely ignored if you prefer.
Re: Will Ingress be part of the reorganization within Niantic Labs?
Thia should not be posting such on her personal blog.
Am hoping Brian and Thia both go. Leadership on Ingress has been truly awful.
