Don't you worry, they'll find things that aren't even broken that they need to fix. You know how when you hack, the items jump out of the portal 3 at a time, and there's a voice telling you what they are, and then there's a screen that recaps what you just got? They'll find something to fix in there somewhere.
I know about "no ETA" in developement but i'd like to ask one more thing,will dronenet be fixed before haloween event?
I wrote about issue before that i move drone from for example portal B to portal A and it's okay(north-side approximately) but when i move back from A to B (south) i can't see destination point,workaround is restart app,find needed key,open remoteview(not viewing portal and keep map oriented north to see A from B) and then quickly open dronenet and swipe for me counterclock to south,but this helps not every time.
This little event wil give more drone movements so - it can be an pain near /\ss for some users facing issues with drone network.
Find another glitch (faced thrice today) similar to previous. If app was just opened and quick swipe/pushed to "fire xmp" window - before that laggy comm window appears,weapon carousel will stuck up. X button wont work,"back" will call "do U want to exit" dialog,but U still can select and fire xmp and use cubes.If U try to cap a poi,U will have reso selection bar but it will fire xmp instead of deploying😂😂😂
To fix that U should restart app,press ok on that boring popup,and wait for comm to be loaded.

Ingress agents have been asking for this (and Kinetic Capsules) ever since VR gear stopped duping in the capsule. Whatever bias you're trying to indicate is wrong.
Niantic had to remove this feature due to players hoarding lots of VR items, which had a negative effect on game balance.
Ie duping AXA Shields (Now Aegis) and SBULAs
However the feature request for crafting has been around since 2013/2014
For an intern, taking on a Feature Request that had been on the list of things to add, this shouldn't have been necessary, but shows that a list of feature requests is there.
I feel 2.58 works more bad in backround when i use screenlock in Game Tools. I hope Niantic can resolve it soon and talk with Samsung if they need resolve for Ingress Prime.
Well, gear-sellers are probably not actually playing the game, just baby-sitting 20 quantum capsules and logging in once a day to harvest. Those would be easy to spot server-side. This would also stop people's alt-accounts for the same purpose minus the selling.
Also, Niantic has demonstrated that they can track each individual piece of gear from where they came from, as when they have banned gear-sellers in the past, their items were deleted from peoples' inventories, even though those people may be legit players who had gear dropped to them from players who bought gear from dubious sources. Therefore, if they wanted to, Niantic could find accounts that generate gear that doesn't stay with them, they could set a threshold that makes it unreasonable and ban those for excessive gear-sharing. Coupled with the lack of activity stats (no building, no blasting, no walking, etc), these farming accounts could be found out and banned.
How many people had their wives, husbands and or children duping for them?
Also gear sellers also use a myriad of bots and burn accounts quickly. So an account could dupe for a while pass on their capsules, spoof farm and get burned.
Most bots don't last long so they don't build up a history of nothing but duping, whereas players and their legitimate mules do.
It's far more complex when you care about your players, than your "solution" accounts for.
Okay, what about having a minimum daily activity to allow duping? Need to deploy or destroy a reso, or deploy a mod in order to get today's duplication?
This is both not the common case, and also something Niantic can't control given that the device is in the hands of the user. But as systems go, it's better than "I open the game once a day to empty full capsules".

We will get Adventure Sync as soon as we are able to hack a Pikachu.
Ingress purists don't like PoGo stuff creeping into Ingress. PoGo is PoGo, Ingress is Ingress.
Shhhht!!! They'll remember about Harry Potty now thanks to you!

Well, now, thanks to you, they have to make the Lion King game first. Thanks for the unnecessary delay, dude.
I actually want to be able to disable that pop-up window. It is pretty annoying to me.
The one from the drone hack sometimes get stuck over everything if you don't click on it.

And still present glitch,if app is opened from notification tab to defend some poi,there is comm overlayed up on remoteviewツ

@Jo0Lz. What. Comm is still not fixed.
Is it safe to update to iOS 14 now or will Ingress Prime still serve random bans?
Yes! I heard agents run Ingress Prime with IOS 14.

VR items should never have stopped duping.
"Very Rare items are not very rare anymore" was just a BS excuse from Niantic.

VR items were being duped in huge quantities by gear sellers. That's why it had to stop.
Just updated ingress on iOS and comms bug persists. Workaround still works with the f|ick movement in alerts, but a hassle for sure.
They could have stopped gear sellers instead. Oh right, I forgot, it's Niantic. We don't stop cheaters here, we just stop legit players from playing.
Please explain how.

That's just 2 ideas right off the top of my head.
You've described players too.
How many people had their wives, husbands and or children duping for them?

They already chose a path.
Kinetic capsules require you to play to generate extra VR gear...
Not the way it is setup now. I know players that have already completed 12 Kinetic Capsules, all by drift caused by the game/gps/their phone.
Niantic Path Create Danger. Avoid.
lol

Comm is not fixed
Well Niantic team. I thought you made me happy when you said comm was fixed. Im still not happy. Comm is still not fixed @NianticOfficial
