Virtual FS - Quantums as we know them likely going away
Just a short thought... I feel like once COVID has been eliminated/mitigated, we'll see quantums change in some fundamental way. If people have been keeping track, rewards for Vitual FS have included something like 12 quantums.
While I can see these being useful for spawning gear that you'd otherwise not be able to farm while quarantined, my belief is that Niantic will have to make a balance pass to prevent spawning of so much gear. I believe someone mentioned capsules that sync off Adventure Sync like PoGo does to offer rewards?
Thoughts? I just can't imagine what the flood of quantums will do long-term for the game. On the plus side, newer players are finally able to get their hands on these things in numbers like OG players have. That's a nice touch.

adventure sync seems currently broken, only count distance done while playing now. So they would become normal capsules 😅
Ingress week vs pogo week :
Yeah, I believe that's part of what they're waiting for. Last I remember they're working on the backend of the pogo system to become available to Ingress.
There was a great post about the tech backend a while back which laid out their issues with migration and decisions to not totally move the the PoGo compute cluster.
Plz niantic would love more sbuls and flip carss rather than qcaps
Link Amp very rare
Edit: Nevermind, misread your post
A fairly recent apk inspection found something called a "kinetic capsule". Might be the rumored "walk to clone" capsule?
Personally I think quantum capsules don't really make much of a difference - unless someone is using backpack accounts. You get 1 extra item a day by locking away 5% of your inventory. So by sacrificing half your inventory, you get 10 items a day? Leaving your drone at a level 8 portal and hacking twice a day gives you more items.
Having said that, I wouldn't feel bad if the quantum capsules from the IFS master code go away, but I am very grateful for the hypercubes.
Rare mods, keys.
Definitely about keys. Quantum populated with keys is what you use them for.
Walk to breed keys would be good for the game since thatll hurts any inactive or backpack accs thats just do nothing but breeding stored anchor keys as keys are most important aspect in the game
camp to breed level items and C/R mods is ok
would be nice to have walk A long way to duplicate VR gears but dont think itll happen
Have you tried unlinking and relinking your AS? I had a similar issue with the 0 steps counted after a system update.
i'll try thx
Quantum?
They should reward a physical hack with 2 FS meetup stat points instead of 1, there should be some type of reward for leaving the house if that's what you meant.
