It seems that the payment for the subscription is done through the app only, but iOS and play stores both have the ability to have recurring payments setup.
Getting some largely useless digital currency back is pretty token :p Though hopefully Niantic will have more cosmetic things to buy down the road that aren't pointless badges you can't even arrange anyway. Maybe finally a way to use all that Google playstore credit people have built up.
The cheapest Attack or Defense bundle with Common items cost 2,400 to 2,700 CMU (~$2.7 to ~$2.85)
If you combine this, it is slightly over my price of $6.49 for the subscription.
In addition to this, the subscription also gives you 500 inventory. So if you think about it, having a subscription is actually slightly cheaper in a way.
Hard to play when the game often doesn't like loading or working properly if it doesn't have full strength perfect cell signal, in places where it used to run fine until a couple of years ago.
I want the chance to buy the sixth key locker that some agents have had for years for free. Where I live, that’s a huge advantage I don’t have. I’m here, my money is here, and Niantic have never explained why they are so unreasonable about letting us pay for something that’s already in the game.
Come on Niantic, do the right thing and sell the sixth key locker.
I'll be honest, if and when anomalies come back, Ingress could offer an Anomaly Month Core Deal and I'll gobble that **** up.
While COVID is still so prevalent, I'm not likely to be motivated to do this, even if I'm just wanting to support Ingress. We need real action and the same amount of community outreach that we had in the "olden days" to make it worth it.
But overall, I'm very impressed with the recent changes. THANK YOU NIANTIC for investing in Ingress!
For me it would depend on what the load out gives, cmu isn't that appealing as it should be since there's not much worth I the store other than key lockers or frakers
I want to ask something about C.O.R.E subscription that my fellow mates have been wondering about: When the subscription is over? What happens with the 500 inventory space?
Anyways, it's such a good choice, you get a nice rewards for 5.49 euros/month. 2500 CMU is 2.29 euros, so frankly, it's a bargain. Do we know what could be inside those C.O.R.E packs?

Who decided that February 5th was "Ingress Christmas"?
TAKE MY MONEY ALREADY OMG! Niantic is just teasing now!!!
Welcome to Ingressmas!
I did the math, unfortunately a little less than 1331 hours after Christmas 😂
$5 USD too expensive.
but $2 back in CMU... at least for a while.
It seems that the payment for the subscription is done through the app only, but iOS and play stores both have the ability to have recurring payments setup.
why not have this as an option?
Ingress Patreon. I like it.
For a game I have been playing for 6 years and for which I have payed over 1500€ in travel fees, events etc.? Nah, $5 is just right.
Great, that's going to be wonderful for game play where we already deal with accounts being bought and sold.

For me, on the Store:
2,500 CMU costs $2.79
The cheapest Attack or Defense bundle with Common items cost 2,400 to 2,700 CMU (~$2.7 to ~$2.85)
If you combine this, it is slightly over my price of $6.49 for the subscription.
In addition to this, the subscription also gives you 500 inventory. So if you think about it, having a subscription is actually slightly cheaper in a way.
You might want to factor your cost vs USD.
The store has 2,500 CMU as $1.99 in the US.
My store shows in CAD but I see your point. Regardless, subscription is still cheaper in a way.
For people outside the US, the likely price is whatever 7K CMU costs. Because that's $4.99 in the US.

Yes, it is important to note this.
NZD, Which is double USD for in app things. Which is the same amount I am already paying to keep Ingress going, month on month
What does everyone this m what C.O.R.E. stands for?
Community
Offers for
Resistance and
Enlightened?
My only complaint this time is that I want to buy it now. 🤩
Thanks for trying to keep the game alive!
First line of the announcement: "C.O.R.E., which stands for Community, Offers, Recognition, and Expansion,"

Sadly, only one option - not 5, 15, 50 USD with more stuff (Inventory).
Bets on what is in the load out?
For me it would depend on what the load out gives, cmu isn't that appealing as it should be since there's not much worth I the store other than key lockers or frakers
I’m more interested in storage than loadout tbh. I have a drone and my feet to earn items, it’s the space for keys and inventory that I want.
Yeah, $2 a month for 2.5k CMU, and $3 a month to have 500 extra slots, and my inventory displayed on Intel.

Like most inventory overages, you won't be able to hack until you bring your inventory total down below 2000 again.
It's like when you level up while at 1999 items, and suddenly you're at 2100 items.
I hope we can get 2500 CMU 2 times ever month and 2 C.O.R.E. Loadout Kit every month.
Very low with only 2500 CMU and 1 C.O.R.E. Loadout Kit every month.
I hope we can get 1000 more inventory. I feel low with only 500 more inventory.
@NianticBrian
So, if I commit to $4.99 a month, how exactly are you planning to :
I don't mind paying but I will have some expectations in term of SLA and respect of the rules of play.
