Serebii Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 Agreed. I do wish they would allow you to have a Google and a Trainer Club sign in on the same GO account. This is getting ridiculous. Nintendo does it with the Nintendo Account. They have like 8 sign ins that can get you to the same account. It can't be that tricky to do. When Nintendo manage to have a better online system than you, you know you have fucked up. Sort it out, Niantic.
Kav Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 Yeah, the server drops are so annoying, I lost a Dragonair (was it called that) earlier, gutted!
Serebii Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 Just saw an article on BBC news in which they cite your site @Serebii to tell people which egg types hatch into which Pokemon. Pretty cool! Yeah I got linked to that earlier It's great seeing recognition like this for what I do. Though it doesn't top a map of mine being used in Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire
Guy Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) Servers just died for anyone else? Right when I was trying to catch a Ponyta. Edited July 19, 2016 by Guy
Agent Gibbs Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 Mine crashed catching a lapras......i wish this game was available on a nokia 3210 because i could have thrown my phone
DriftKaiser Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Dunno if it's real or not but a building somewhere in USA will change it's external lighting colour to red/blue/yellow depend on who controls the gym on there. That's freaking cool.
Shorty Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 I'm sitting at work with Go open, my avatar is wandering around presumably while GPS fluctuates/searches for me. Will that give me progress towards egg hatching? I'm not into this game much, mainly because I don't walk anywhere, but I do like it. Just got a Haunter.

Guy Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Going out for a walk guys. I've never been so damn excited to go out for walks.
Hero-of-Time Posted July 19, 2016 Author Posted July 19, 2016 The game will be launching in Japan tomorrow. RIP servers.
bob Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Is it just as simple as buying lots of new servers and linking them up? Or is it more complicated than that?
Happenstance Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Is it just as simple as buying lots of new servers and linking them up? Or is it more complicated than that? From my very limited knowledge of MMO launches I think it is fixable buy getting more servers but the problem comes later when everything calms down and you have all these extra servers you spent money on which you no longer need. Of course it could be different for Pokemon Go and they will actually need all these extra servers but unfortunately you just dont know.
Hero-of-Time Posted July 19, 2016 Author Posted July 19, 2016 There's a Pokestop right next to my work. I was about to head out to lunch but seen someone had used a lure on it. I decided to just have my lunch next to said Pokestop. I just sat there, camping on the thing for a good 40 odd minutes.

There are 3 Pokestops that I can reach from my office as long as the GPS makes my avatar go walkies for long enough lol
Hero-of-Time Posted July 19, 2016 Author Posted July 19, 2016 There are 3 Pokestops that I can reach from my office as long as the GPS makes my avatar go walkies for long enough lol Yeah, I managed to reach the one near me from the office when my GPS had a fit. Felt like a proper win.
somme Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 There's a PokeStop over the road from me which is just too far away to get from inside the house. It's a Mormon church as well so I don't like to hang outside it much or they'll come out and try and convert me. (No word of a lie different ones bump into me almost every other day down my road asking me ridiculous questions)
bob Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 I must have walked over 100km whilst on holiday, but could only access this via WiFi when back at the hotel. Now I'm back with a solid Internet connection, I can't walk anymore due to my feet being a mess of blisters. It's not to be!
Goafer Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 If I go for a walk into town, I pass 3 Pokestops. If I walk around town, I can get about 10. 20 if I can get them again in the way back.
Agent Gibbs Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 I live next to a park and there are three pokestops within 100m of my home because of it (two park gates and the old swimming baths that's now a car park) extending out theres a Church at about 150m, then it gets crazy busy! a country walk is a pokestop, the park lake house is a pokestop & Gym, then the otherside of the park is a pokestop, the nearby clock is a pokestop there must be 10 within a half mile for me and then Leeds City Centre.....fuck every 20 steps there is a pokestop! there everywhere! and yet I still keep running out of balls
Eddage Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 and yet I still keep running out of balls I've probably deleted about 100 pokeballs today alone Went for a four hour walk today, headed to a spot I had heard that Scythers spawn and literally within a second of entering the park one popped up, caught another 3 within about 20 minutes! The heat today was crazy though, full on sweating after a few hours, must've smelt lovely for all the people sharing my bus ride home Heading back out this evening to meet some friends to catch some more 'Mon, hopefully the Dragonite will spawn again.
Ashley Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 There's a lure nearby and a Dratini but I have wine so... In case anyone wanted to know my priorities.
Mr-Paul Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 There's a lure nearby and a Dratini but I have wine so... In case anyone wanted to know my priorities. It's acceptable to drink on the street when it's this hot! Take it with you!
Mokong Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) I was on a local radio station here talking about the game, tried to plug N-E, I mentioned I used to write reviews for a website thinking they would ask what website but they never did haha. But I asked them to include "from N-Europe.com" in the credit on the podcast Was a bit nervous at the start but I think I settled down after. I'll link the podcast when they have it up after the show Edited July 20, 2016 by Mokong
