When we get animation ring that spins around portal with high graphic for unique portals visit and capture? Now looks extreme cheap and bad for my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra.
For one: Why? The simple design for the uniques is good, only the colors could be a bit tweaked as some aren't that visible under some circumstances.
But also, due to the lower density of POIs in Pokemon GO, the pokestops there have the space they need to have a ring around them. Portals in Ingress are more dense. Should every portal have a ring around them, you wouldn't be able to see them at all.
Now looks bad. My Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra can handel high graphics. I hope they can relese something animation with high graphic Prime use. They can have same rings animation and spinn. It is around portal.
I hope they relese it soon in update. I cant understand way implant bad cheap graphic when Prime use more high grafic. Not fun use with bad desing and graphic. I understand if they use it on old Ingress 1.
Only thing I would want different about this new feature is to show the inverse, marking the unvisited/uncaptured portals, since is far easier to spot one or two targets rather than search for unmarkeds.
Edit: I'm still didn't get this update, so I'm suposing it's working like intel is.
Otherwise, is the best additional feature since year 4 (when I begin my journey).
Hope we can get new cool sound from ring when we zoom in.
Good now i can disable the foture and wait for Niantic to relese shiny ring with high graphic. I dont like see more low graphic in Ingress. I only hope Niantic use high resolution and graphic for premium phones in Prime. But now Niantic work to implant more and more low graphic in Prime.
Have you already forgotten about such a word as optimization ??? Why was the game "creatures 3" released in the 2000s, in which the concept of digital DNA for each character was implemented and it worked perfectly on a 1 GHz processor, and now even for the simplest Tetris you need to have a 4 core processor and at least 4 gigabytes of RAM?
Ingress is a game that, despite the textures like in Doom 2 and the visual effects of games from the 2000s, eats away all the resources of the smartphone. But there are analogues, for example - eve echoes, which on the same android give an excellent picture and consume much less battery charge,
as well as look at PUBG,
or League of Legends wild rift.
Here the picture is modern and there are no fields with a texture reminiscent of lava in doom 2, but why?
And this is what we play. Nice isn't it? More beautiful than those screenshots that are shown in the example above?
Colors could use some tweaks while under fields, but it doesn't need to be flashy. For the brief period it was enabled with the app update I had some issues seeing the purple ring under blue fields.
Ingress isn't meant to be graphics-intensive. It's meant more of a way for you to go out and discover new areas. I have a premium phone, I'm not really focused on the game graphics, I'm more focused on what I meet on my journey. Especially since I like photography.
If you dont have premium phone you see the standard ring as now. If you have Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra or premium phone you see the more advance ring with best graphic,shiny and we see ring spins around and here new sound on ring If we zoom in.
Hope @NianticBrian can help us relese it soon to Prime.
Here or read lots of agents outside from community say or write ring looks cheap and bad. Only agents use community write they like de cheap bad desing of the rings.
You're the only one suggesting this. This is such a minute issue/request
I want to imagine the portal history is using less intensive colored circles because of the server load. The server only loads parts of the scanner view from time to time. The issue is more of preventing doing server calls than whatever your phone's specs are. We've recently seen what supernovas do to the server.
Talk with agents work with servers every day. Nothing to do with the severs if Niantic use more shiny ring with high graphic. If you confic severs correct it is no problem for GPS games on phone.
Now Niantic only work on the cheap rings with low graphic and detail. Nothing we can do if Niantic dont listen or will have rings with high graphic and detail.
Ingress has way too many portals in certain places. The animation rings you suggest will make things insanely cluttered. So if I were to put your suggestion in one word, it would be: No.
We need to display as on those special portals for scanning. The image of the layer ring should be large, much larger than the portal. And in general, let it be not a circle, but something with an ornament that will differ in shape from the display of the shield.
Notice the distracting scout control icons are now behind the Scout Controller layer? I think this is the first update to seeing the scanner mimic the intel map.

I think I never disagreed so hard before.
Me to and dont use the new foture before Niantic relese high graphic animation ring follow Prime graphic design.
You might be one of the very few people asking for more pointless visual effects in Prime.
"Niantic, can you slow down the app more, use up more memory, and drain my battery faster?"
How about no?
Hopefully we will never see that shiny spinning ring. It would be a shiny spinning ring of mis-spent subscription money and wasted developer days.
Not everyone has S21 Ultra.
Less is more.
Less is definitely more

I just remembered Crash on PS1.

They could add a layer to show/remove fields. It's pretty annoying when you are under a permafield.

Well, if they want their opinion to matter something they should speak up on the right place, not just babbling about to the air.

I don't know why you bother to comment sometimes.
Here are way animation shiny ring are best for Ingress Prime when i cant see the rings now. With animation shiny ring i can see it easy.
Now time for Niantic to understand and implant the animation shiny ring.
Ingress has way too many portals in certain places. The animation rings you suggest will make things insanely cluttered. So if I were to put your suggestion in one word, it would be: No.
Here's some personal examples: Walt Disney World and Wynwood (Miami)
It would be an absolute nightmare for anything high-end.
Purple is difficult to see.
We need to display as on those special portals for scanning. The image of the layer ring should be large, much larger than the portal. And in general, let it be not a circle, but something with an ornament that will differ in shape from the display of the shield.
Sometimes I suspect @jontebula might be trying to become the user with the most dislikes on the community forums 😁
and that can be fixed and adjusted
