I took down 3 pokemon all with higher CP than my team and got 723 :/ I guess that's roughly half? You should've gotten at least 750 for that. Remember that all 3 have to be higher than the highest CP in your team of 6. But yeah basically everything got halved and 500 is now the cap instead of 1000. That's what I expected but I'm 99% sure that's what happened. My highest was 1961 and the first tier was 1966.
Ah weird. I have to admit I haven't prestiged since the update, my info was just from Reddit. More testing required then

I thought they might make things show up in smaller distance eggs, but Niantic would have to manually change that since they require the same steps to hatch that their base forms do.

To be fair they just did that for Eevee so it's not unprecedented.
That said, they aren't terrible. Pichu has the same base stat total as Kakuna/Metapod, higher than Caterpie/Weedle. Cleffa is even higher than Pichu. Couldn't be bothered to look up the others.

Has anyone been expecting slow loading lately? Game seems to be struggling whether I'm on wifi or not, and in my normal stomping grounds.

I'm ready to play the game in the winter now. Bought a pair of thin-gloves that works with touchscreens. They were cheep as well (50 SEK)

I'm also feeling pretty 1st world problems right now. Caught my 2nd Lapras, this one low CP too(in the 600s).
Oh, picked up another couple 10ks today, so now I'm at 4. At least I know they aren't Eevees now.

So the areas hit by the tsunami in Japan are going to be getting a Lapras even where they're as common as Ghastly were for the Haloween event to boost tourism.
I hope Niantic really takes advantage of the situation to crack down on spoofers, otherwise this will ruin the game in some places.

Suddenly Aerodactyl.
Can't say I'm disappointed with that; 1311 CP is pretty good for my roster. XD

Has anyone else noticed an increase in the numbers of pokemons spawning in the game? Because there certainly has been an increase in some parts of where I live.

There's an event going on to celebrate the launch of the daily quests. Through the 11th you will see increased spawns & increased items from pokestops.

Yes I have. I though that it was only for items But some more pokemons was also nice.

when do you guys play now, if at all? the sun setting at 5:00 (an hour before i get home) has really destroyed my motivation to go out on weekdays. i play a bit at work, but not enough to collect the potions i need to destroy everyone. weekends are hit or miss depending on my plans and motivation to move my ass.

I typically play about 30 min before going into work but its cold and dark. Just works the best with family. Otherwise over lunch if I get the time.

I usually play when Im about doing other errands during the day. Which is most of the days currently

Commuting to and from work + when I go running (which is ideally 3-4 times a week).
I never really bother with gyms because it would involve going places I wouldn't otherwise go and spending time doing nothing but capping gyms.

I lost a lot of motivation to play after the terrible gym changes, that was the endgame for me. The whole reason I'm leveling up, collecting stardust, looking for good IV/movesets and specific nests - all of it was for gyms.

you dont enjoy the fact that its less time consuming to take down level 10 gyms? i am certainly enjoying that aspect. although i am lucky enough to still have a fiefdom of 8 gyms. i had more previously, but now we are in constant war over about four of them, which i find fun (as long as i have potions). i am also seeing a lot more low level people in gyms.
