New player.

I really don't understand how to play this game when I am away from the portals? Can we do anything away from portals?

Thanks

  • You can recharge.

    Or use the recently added drone.


    If not being able to do much when you aren't near portals is boring to you, there are other games you might enjoy more.

    You can also go to www.intel.ingress.com/intel and you can use it to find portals near you, find places of clustered portals and farms, plot out where you want to go in the future, etc.

    That's exactly the point of the game: going explore the world and see the portal location. You can't play it properly without moving yourself, it would be like playing soccer/football while sitting in a chair (you can still defend the goal, thou).

    If you're unable to move freely, there's a few actions that can be performed from home, like planing, recharge, hacking (if you have one portal in range from your home), proposing new portals and review candidates (when you reach the lv required), etc. You can even add to this list edits of name, description, location and pictures, since upgrading the overall quality of portal is also part of the game. And this week was release the Dronenet, Wich you can deploy a drone to any portal at your sight and move it arround to others portals in sight, while hacking and collect gear.

    But the main gameplay is like the truth, is out there. Capturing portals, installing mods, creating links and stablish control fields, destroy enemy portals and links, doing missions, discover new candidates, creating farms with friends, etc. All require you to go out in the world.

    There is sadly less to do ingress from home then pokemon, unless u live somewhere central and have a portal or more that u can reach from home then u can throw some fields hack etc.. otherwise u need to either send a drone or go out and play..
