If they're paying for it, isn't cheat.
What should stop is that item dropping from level up kits. That should be bought only, or only after lv6. Droping for lv2 kits will just speed up Kamikaze accounts.
Cheating with the items to get to L16 faster
I hope Niantic soon remove the new items! 😡
It's not cheat.
Not good with P2W to get to L16 faster in Ingress Prime! I hope Niantic understand and remove the new item Apex. 😡
What difference will this make if someone is able to speed up from lv 8 to 16? Maybe you can buy some and finally recurse and get back to lv 16 as fast as possible.
The only problem I see is they giving it form free for lv 2 and every level up field kit. That's gonna speed up the kamikazee spoofer accounts. My team did a large field of 4millions over our city and was taken down by a kamikazee account that tried to attack it at level 4, them staied low for a while and came back at lv5 with more gear to destroy it. Free APEX will just speed up the level up of kamikaze accounts, and incentive the creation of more every time it is needed. Lv 1 to 7 is already really fast to get, if they want to give apex for free, it should start at lv7, because beyond that is were it start to became boring.
I don't see how me leveling up faster could ruin your game-play/experience... 🙄
Oh wow, double AP, what a massive cheat. As if player level matters in Ingress.
Pfft ingress already had pay to win features...

This exactly...
Now that they finally made the announcement, seeing L2-8 get a free one, it's going to make spoof/alternate accounts a breeze to level up...
Oh hey Niantic.
Hey thanks for the ap. I have a question - can i use one or more of these on a FS or a Anomaly event to get quad AP???
This is also one of those things that had been requested for several years. Good to see that we finally have it.
Yay for Apex
I feel like introducing a double AP item during a period where many states and countries are on lockdown, is a bad idea and will encourage people to leave home to play more.
If thats the case then game should be closed? Not all countries are full locked down it varies....
Some people will complain about everything and anything. It's just double ap. Frackers double output and this doubles ap. Not sure why it's a big deal.
Ok.. who had Jonas in the sweepstakes for this round of Whingegress? Come claim your prize now 👏
Could you please forget that the forum exist
so
Niantic give something for people to play a little bit faster or gain more AP. People say its cheating or pay 2 win.
Where is the logic in the claims? What benefit is there past level 8 for players?
There isn't any benefit of these to actual players as most people who care about the game in have put in the effort to get to whatever level that they want to get to be it (8/10/12/16). If people want to mule account they're going to put in the effort for a hour to level to 8 or whatever they have been doing for years. if someone wants to sub this will help them get there faster. Is there harm of more portals in the network? most old players don't even bother to sub or review now anyway.
also its cheating? how does that claim even work? oh no someone has some more AP so they level up/ recurse faster? its not as if it helps with badges or if its buying gear etc
people will complain about anything that is implemented because they don't like it or that they don't agree with it rather than actually just playing the game how they want and having fun exploring.
Imho this should be recursed agents only for field kits to avoid new accs gets it too fast without ptw
It would be nice if these were only usable by L8+ agents. That would prevent power-leveling of spoof/cheat accounts using double AP.
No use for me whatsoever. With very less portal around me (limited portal capture) and no one to play with (hence no FS) 2x boost is not my tool. I only rely on fields for level up. Wish they introduce Jarvis in store; that's farfetched, I know :D
AP is not the only requirement to get to L16.
Even if you get tons of AP, you have to deal with the badge requirements.
This is beneficial only for recursed agents that want to build up thier recursion badge count.
I wanted to say this as well.
The good news is, the item can only be used. It can't be dropped and shared with other agents
I realy Like the new APexploit Item. I organize a First Saturday for my community every month, I do all the preparatory work, create prizes, submit mosaics, think up themes. But in the end I usually can't participate because I have to work weekends in the hospital. This is where #APexploit comes in handy. I can get Bonus Ap when I have time to play and I don't have to be frustrated every month that I only have work and others have fun. What I don't like is that Pay to Win crying that also happens in my community and in this case, which helps people like me, really annoys me.
This isn’t a cheat. It’s an item designed to help new players level up quicker. Also is it really a cheat if it’s in the game and not locked behind a cheat code?
Just tried it. It’s only a 20 AP boost
Now if it was a 2000 AP boost then I’d call it cheating
Suck it up, children. This kind of item is the most basic purchase in virtually any microtransaction supported Free To Play game. Or did you forget that this game needs to make money to survive?
Also you can charge portals from home if you have portal keys and the portal is currently owned by your faction
Delete Apex pls!!
