PvE Current score 1 - 0

What do I mean? Well I am keeping my link corridors free from red links but the environment is suffering badly from all the travel I am doing by car. Machina is bad for the environment.

Why is Machina so bad for the environment?

  1. It creates links from portals that are hard to reach via public transport, to get to these portals you need your own mode of powered transport.
  2. It creates links through existing links, previously the opposition had to plan the field take down and arrange the blocker. Now, the opposition just waits until Machina blocks and then takes the field down. This requires constant cleaning to maintain the field, see point 1.
  3. Just removing a Machina blocker is not enough, you have to remove all the portals, otherwise Machina seems to go wild and throw even more links.

I don’t mind competition from the other faction, but when a computer generated faction starts to dictate how I play, I start to get suspicious. Playing against people is OK, against computers is not.

If Machina didn’t throw Links through existing links I wouldn’t complain, but the current situation is just damaging to the environment. It seems that PvE is the correct term for the new faction. But hey, Ingress was never environmentally friendly 🤷‍♂️
