Remind me what the point of this is?
Red faction portals overtaking entire towns, requiring someone to practically visit the whole area to play or make fields, remind me what the point of it is again?

Looks like you don't have any enlightened opposition to me.
To provide an “enemy” to battle against when you don’t have any opposition locally.
the point is to have less mega field done without real coordination and just due to the lack of enemies ?
Now everyone has to move to make long links. This + purge of QC => The end of easy MU
To waste as much gas and time as possible!
not like any time before while playing, right? Right?
If you have to keep going out to clear red stuff that is out of the way, where you wouldn't of normally traveled to, but it's currently blocking you. Yeah, its wasting gas. If I'm planning on playing in a certain area, it's not wasting gas. I've already planned on playing somewhere. But if I have to drive 20-30 minutes to clear **** that keeps coming back, that keeps crossing links/fields where it would normally be grey, then it's wasting gas.
If anything the creation of Machina, appears to be to attempt to block lanes of largish/large fields.
I mean you have onyx in everything, you don't really have to do anything. What's funny is I bet you do it every day regardless.
Nopers. 2 completed hack streaks in the past 30 days. 😂
Ingress has devolved into one faction regions or stalemates.
Machina gives an active opposition that won't get bored or quit. If you don't like it... Smash it up!
give us badge then
"I don't act in Ingress unless there's a badge for it."
So you've never destroyed enemy fields, recycled gear, recharged portals (since you're likely well past Onyx), or any of the myriad of things that don't give you a badge, yet are integral to the game?
Machina is there to add additional elements to your normal play. Wanna build a field, gotta clear out both enemies links, etc.
How I envy those players who have a lot of red portals. We only have a few of them. We protect them, and our cluster is small and half-dead.
I did but after 10 years i have onyx in many badges so just hunting red isnt enough really if they are very far away they dont bother my daily area of play. I prefer to focus help my teammates then go chasing ai faction.
I love red faction. Best thing to happen to the game in YEARS.
I'm noticing more and more that Machina portals/links like to appear frequently in areas that crossing current links/fields. If the field is up for more than a week, a Machina link will cross at least one of the links to that field. Start watching folks. Because I'm thinking Machina's whole point is to try to scr3w up one of the primary parts of the game. Linking/fielding. Whether the field is up for a week or an hour. The red stuff loves to cross the links, which in normal gameplay, isn't allowed.
*Edit, silly censorship on this forum is worse than what they have in schools. Time for some L33t sp34k.
Killed the baf game, killed the fielding game, yes its great for people who want to play vs an Ncp, but for anyone else this is an awful addition to an already dying game.
The end of any MU*
Think niantic needs to balance these seems they are very agressive as long as neutral portals they will continue to grow and do chaos, but maybe they are monitor how they spread on the portal network but they are awful quiet and dont say much so idk really what they plan with the machina team in the future really is. Not really good if players quit because of red npc faction throwing links and blocking 🤔
