Fuck this game sometimes
Just gonna vent my frustrations with this game -It seems like every day between 10-2 EST servers are down. -I'll walk 5k and it will register shit. 2-3 kilometers. -Tracking used to be a great asset for the game just last week. Now everything on the radar is stuck at 3 steps and it's lame as fuck. -I'll walk my ass off to get to the grass thats fluttering, and the game won't throw me a bone.
And I found a sick Lapras and it was CP 300. So bitter sweet. Never gonna find any Lapras candies to make it nice
This game is a fickle bitch. But like.... I'm trine catch them all so hopefully Niantic get's their shit together sooner than later with a good update.

It's linked to google maps and gps. You create an avatar, who while the game is open, follows you around based on your GPS location. This is a "get up and go" game, not for sitting down. While you are out on your walk, you encounter Pokemon, which you catch and add to your collection. The only battles are when you get to lvl 5 ( easy) and ten you can battle at gyms. Which are real life landmarks. Like churches or police stations or public parks.

This is good. Now fat weaboo kids can get some exercise and sunlight.
I can't get my shit work right though, character doesn't move when I do just kinda spins around aimlessly. I'm assuming it's because my Straight talk card ran out of time the other night though

I still play pokemon on my gba. Silver and Yellow versions.
Goda catch em' all, you know? Pokemon Go sounds fun, could get you off you ass some days too maybe. Are you required to play it a certain amount? Or can you just pick it up whenever you feel like it?
I've seen commercials and stuff about it here in Canada. I'm interested to know more.

It might be that. But the game still feels like it's in beta. It's hard to log in sometimes, it lags, etc. it might not even be your phone.
@chief- you can totally pick up whenever. I feel like the people that would be best at this game are people who like to jog every day. More ground covered = more pokemon

Started yesterday - Loving it so far. If it gets people outside and interacting with each other in positive ways, it's a good thing. Also, my exercise gym is a gym in the game, and me and my crew are claiming stake to it. HAHAHA - NO ONE WILL TAKE DOWN THE FEMALE ALLIANCE.

I went to my gym yesterday and it was a checkpoint of some sort. I felt like a dweeb roaming around with my musculature and vascularity pumped up while trying to catch a fucking ratata

That is awesome - I was walking out of my friend's apartment last night and turned on the app to see what Pokemon were outside. Ran into an Evee, caught it, and starting jumping up and down saying "YEAH." Then I noticed this lady was moving stuff out of her vehicle. Probably thought I was bonkers.

Why not just go on a hike? i guess whatever floats your boat, but this whole thing just seems ridiculous to me lol

Bit disappointed with the game upon trying it. It's really basic. I think getting rid of the camera ( so that battles are on actual pre-rendered backgrounds) and adding the ability to fight wild pokemon would make the game better, among overall design rehaul. Like, they could have made houses and stuff look like houses from the game or something.
This is like an early beta preview of an actual game really, in how it feels anyway.
Here's to hoping the sequels are much better though. Cool concept.

You can turn off the camera so it uses a pre-rendered background, just hit the AP switch.

Where/how do you even get the game?
I tried looking in the app store but did not go any further than that.
