Pokemon Go dev explains latest update

Pok'emon Go:
Trainers,
As many of you know, we recently made some changes to Pokémon GO.
- We have removed the ‘3-step’ display in order to improve upon the underlying design. The original feature, although enjoyed by many, was also confusing and did not meet our underlying product goals. We will keep you posted as we strive to improve this feature.

Clickbait: Nothing New.

Once again they just retell the Niantic recent statement on the game update. It's not a new one.

SirBradders3557d ago

Games crap now anyway, they pretty much ruined the game. Even their original tracking concept is a basic and pony feature. They should have an actual map of where they all are with only uncommon and rare pop up as rustling leaves.

djeby3557d ago

Yes, they ruined the catching system too. Pidgeys and Ratata took an average of 2-4 NICE throws to catch and some even run away after spending that amount of Pokeballs...

SirBradders3557d ago

Yeah I noticed that aswell makes me not wanna play, explain to me how a 80 cp squirtle jumps out a ultra curveball with a nice and berry lol.

Immorals3557d ago

I've noticed that basic pokeballs have a higher success rate than great balls now. Really weird.

iTechHeads3557d ago

My only problem is the weak Pokemon taking multiple Pokeballs to capture. It's ridiculous and anti-consumer. I can't sit at Pokestops all day and I'm not going to pony up real-world cash for Pokeballs.....

rdgneoz33557d ago

My gf is lucky as hell. Library across the street from her is a pokestop and because of GPS being buggy, half the time she can reach the pokestop. Has like 175 pokeballs. I have to have her log on my account if she can to farm me some...

alfcrippinjr3557d ago

nothing more to get the hype up on a crap game
once people get addicted
they make it a lot harder and surprise surprise
in-purchase apps

as it own by google it not a company to trust

kayoss3557d ago

Nope, it was once owned by google. Niantic is now an independent company.

Gh05t3557d ago

Google makes a $30 million dollar investment AFTER the spin off and you think there is no ownership from Google... You must not understand how businesses work if you think google let 100% of that company just walk away and give them $30 million on the way out.

Just because they can now make their own decisions doesn't mean that the board members and stake isn't still tied to Alphabet.

kayoss3553d ago

@Gh05t
Yes, google did invest 30million in Niantic labs, but investment dont equal to ownership.

PiperMCFierceson3557d ago

I wander off into the woods to only find nothing. The should really make the geographical locations matter a bit more. I need to be in a densly populated area to find Pokemon. I like to Mon in privacy ....

Slowbro3557d ago

Mfw when I find more water types than rock types and I live in a mountain town with very little water

Pokémon Go Championship Winner Title Revoked for ‘Unsportsmanlike Conduct’

The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.

How is that unsportsmanlike conduct? What a stupid decision lol

gold_drake23d ago

lol wut.

since when is bumping fists "unsportsmanlike".

Inverno23d ago

There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.

SethNW23d ago

Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
