They needed to create a stable base before they started cramming on top. Else you end up with spaghetti. They are communicating things quite poorly but it isn't like they have made real shit decisions.

I don't mind the fancy forms though. Not sure I like z moves. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UprcpdwuwCgv I hit 20 today and looks like it gives you two incubators which is pretty sweet. I really need to pay attention to what I get at levels/pokestops so I can stop having new incubators sitting idle. | ||

There is literally no way to find pokemon on your nearby list now also the PoGo subreddit is a shitstorm right now, its quite funny and sad at the same time Yeah how did people ever find Pokemon before Pokevision. Absolutely nobody downloaded or played the game before the group made that tool. Oh wait no that's not entirely true is it? | ||

Oh wait no that's not entirely true is it? Before pokevision we had a working step system that would at least allow you to track nearby pokemon by distance references. Now we dont know whether a pokemon is right in front of you or 300 meters away. Then they take away a temporary solution so we can search for pokemon like Lee sin from League of Legends. fun fun fun | ||

We're only like 3 weeks in and people are already nostalgia lol. Speaking as someone from EU, I've only ever known Pokevision. And it's been incredible. The feeling of racing to a Pokemon trying to snag it before it despawns, and meeting other people doing the same was really cool. Now you just wander in circles and hope to find something. You just can't find anything that's on your radar anymore. Just more Drowsee after Drowsee (which aren't even on your radar too). Don't get me started on the stealth change that makes Pokemon harder to catch. Oh well. Time to breed some flawless Vulpix and Sandshrew instead! | ||

The people I've seen (and walked around with) playing Go didn't have Pokevision, they simply relied on the radar saying "there's X and Y Pokemon nearby" and they walked as 4-5 trying to find it and calling out each other when they did. They didn't seem annoyed by it. On the other hand Saturday I came across a guy on a scooter who parked right besides me. I assumed he was gonna ask for directions but instead he looked below him and I noticed the plastic harness he was wearing with a support on his chest to hold his smartphone. So he drove right there, stopped, looked at the smartphone strapped on his chest and tapped it a bit, then he started off again. I knew about dumb stuff like selfie sticks but, uh, what? | ||

So watch out for those levels. I don't think you can get incubator from pokestops. | ||

Too bad the radar is unreliable as all fuck now. People have posted screenshots of standing "on" a pokemon(non-lure non-insence) that isn't even in their radar.

You get 2 at 20, 3 at 30, and 4 at 40. Outside of leveling, incubators are available only through pokecoins. | ||

Like I said, they needed to fix stability before they could work on new features. If we hit a couple weeks from now and we have no new tracking features then they have really fucked up. They honestly just cleaned up their stability like 12 hours ago. | ||

All my friends really enjoy it, but I spent weeks unable to play because server instability lined up perfectly with my free time. I gave up when I hit level 5 at the same time my friends were in the mid to high teens. Basically I flipped the game a Doduo and decided if I ever felt like playing Pokemon I'd finish X/Y or something. | ||
