While intriguing, fresh and new, redfection seems pretty harmless right now. In the long term, rather than be mindless, I’d like to see redfection become a much stronger, serious and formidable 24-hour threat globally to both factions. I’d like to see it savagely go after faction strongholds, portal communities and also viciously defend itself. A more unyielding, relentless parasite than a passive parasite. behavior similar to The Flood in the Halo franchise or the infected in The Last of Us. This would be a serious game changer. An entire Anomaly with the redfection difficulty level set to max would also be amazing.

@NianticThia surely this should be a Niantic consideration... I mean, the design spec is so well documented too 😜😜😜
Looks like it's time to see how much of the prophecy has been successfully foretold...
Glad I'm not the only one who remembered this post
Many people remember it and have been hoping :)
Nice prediction there
If it's good, I take full credit. If it's bad, it's all @NianticBrian's fault 😁
I love this concept.

There's always a good opportunity to 'tweak' the values during events, and make them surge for a week or two at a time.
