    De lujo también podrían desbloquear cumplir misiones con el dron :) y banner de una fila ayudaría en zonas rurales...

    Posdata: Aumenten los portales (sitios) para el efecto kurece :)

    Thia! Better mission maker and official "banner" support when? Would love to be able to start a banner and have each associated mission pop up each time.

    Optimal time for doing mission and visually acceptable

  • GrogyanGrogyan ✭✭✭✭✭

    The banner looks readable at 3 lines.


    And provides a decent outing for a walk, assuming that the mission series is designed for walking.


    I have created a couple which are designed to be done on a local bus that drives around in a loop in the city, kinda 50/50 of those keen to do them.

    Three rows gives a 3 x 6 image, which is roughly landscape. 16:9 is a 1.77 aspect ratio, and 4 x 6 is 1.5, 3 x 6 is 2. So 3x6 is (slightly) closer to what most people think of as landscape image.


    One and Two Rows are usually just for words.

    Anything beyond 3 lines / 18 missions seems like excess honestly.

    most of the missions that will be taken are historical missions / missions with a timeframe, allowing those who visit to easily complete the mission, and I find it very practical and saves time if 6 missions can be completed. Now is the time for coffee and chatting with friends. ☕

  • 6 (one row)

    maybe the 6 missions can be connected with 6 other missions that are related to the mission design. In my opinion, I didn't choose an event in the game, just looking from my point of view for the efficiency and fun of the mission that we will take.

  • HosetteHosette ✭✭✭✭✭

    One.

    I love missions as travel markers but banners are just not my thing.

    There is no option to choose "all of the above" haha ​​joke.

    I enjoy making all the banners, whether they are 1, 2, 3, 4 or more rows, it all depends on how I organize myself over time to make them 🤗

  • 18 (three rows)

    Tbh the amount of rows doesnt matter.

    In dense populated portals region, it is easy to have more rows and little distance.

    Low populated offers more distance.

    So i always check the time i have and the distance in total of a banner.

    Now that i have onyx spec Ops i prefer 6piece banners.

    Go big! (more than 4 rows)

    The bigger, the better! I usually do 1 large banner or multiple small banners on a banner day. I prefer to banner by bike. My SpecOps badge is at 8310 at the moment, and I hope to hit 10000 before the end of 2022!

    It's not the size it's how you use it...

    To me what makes a mission series great are:

    1) gives a good flavor of a location - shows me a neighborhood or feature that I might not have noticed otherwise

    2) fairly compact & reasonable flow - don't make me walk half a km out of the way just to get one portal

    3) minimal repetition of waypoints - I am a fan of overlapping the start & end of each mission using passphrases (I think this makes is very easy to locate the next mission), and I have no problem repeating portals if a natural flow of a mission crosses back over itself, but I do not want to do multiple laps of a single park, or worse yet a "speed set" where you simply use the same portals over and over again on each mission

    4) image related to the place it is - I do sometimes enjoy doing a seasonal/thematic mission that has nothing to do with the location the missions are, but my favorite missions are the ones that remind me where I was and what I was doing and what I discovered just by looking at them

    I picked 18, since most often that's a size that yields my favorite type of missions - I've done a few really great travel missions that are much larger (a 72-mission series in Seoul is one of my all-time favorites), and some that are shorter, but 18 or perhaps 24 tends to be a good size for being able to meet all of my criteria for a great mission series.

    3 lines is ideal for me. but I don't refuse long banners if the image was very interesting.



  • 18 (three rows)

    I've had so many issues over the years with passphrases, that personally I'd prefer if they didn't exist, or were only multiple choice.

  • vidiconvidicon ✭✭✭✭✭
    18 (three rows)

    Oh yeah. When I say overlapping with passphrase I specifically mean stuff like “what mission # are you on?” or maybe a multiple choice question. Even questions that should be easy to answer that are free entry have so many issues with variations that they can be super frustrating.

  • 18 (three rows)

    That question would frustrate me 🤣

    Really, you should be able to declare "This will be the next mission" in the creator, and then when the mission completes, it can say "Would you like to see the next mission" and have it open that mission instead of the mission list.

    Depends on lot of factors but in general the more the merrier.

    Big fan of the 48 missions biocards

    About the factors

    -Ratio of uniques, length and duration (doable in one day), flow (as explained before in the thread) and also nice pic related to the place (panoramas, skylines, relevant building...)

    Also I like to have some letters naming the place, but that part is getting more difficult because of the filters on mission approval

  • 18 (three rows)

    It depends, but i prefer 6, 12, 18, and 24. The smaller ones are easier to complete in a few hours, but i can (and have) spent all day doing some of the larger ones.

  • 18 (three rows)

    I'm really happy that someone from Niantic acknowledged that banners exist!

  • 18 (three rows)

    18 missions are the best.


    I like bigger banners but from 1 to 3 rows are more elegants
