Is the only way to get pokecoins really from defending gyms or buying them?
Most of my gyms are already occupied.
Can confirm that even a light jog is too fast to hatch eggs. Ran a 5k never going faster than 7:00/mile, and I'm at .5/5k. Servers were confirmed good until at least halfway through the run.
Which is bullshit, bike riding counts in the games.
It could be both 😁
I can only report what I saw, I know the servers were working and I know my eggs didn't hatch. Busses also stop a lot and move slowly. I'm faster than a bus.a friend gather 2.5km on a bus run, so no, you cant confirm anything

THIS IS GREATNESS
Maybe the servers treat it differently? The game isn't officially released in Mexico, correct?not here in mexico pal, they drive like they are toreto
It's a shop, it said bathrooms initially.
Still continue to see people walking and driving around the neighborhood. I like to think about how those of us who played the gameboy game at recess are meeting up at playgrounds again almost 20 years later lol.
The game still isn't out in all markets even inside the US. I still get "not available in your region" on the play store. Chill.
I think I'm already over the initial pull of the game. I booted up the game at home, realised there's nothing to do in it and closed it. It just has no depth.
https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/...on_a_walk_with_my_wife_this_evening_to_catch/Went on a walk to catch some more Pokemon tonight. My neighborhood is a damn breeding ground for Rattatas and Pidgeys, but I had seen an Eevee and a Slowbro silhouette earlier on my way home. Plus there's a gym at the front of our subdivision. It was blue already so we walked over to it and I joined up with him, tossing in my CP 333 Pidgeot to take to top spot in a level 3 gym.
As we were walking back home I saw a car do a u turn and I said "I bet they are going after the gym!" My wife laughed and said they were probably lost, but as I watched they pulled over to the side and parked behind the subdivision sign. Then I looked down at my phone...the gym came under attack!
They knocked out the guy below me quickly, a level 200 something, then started attacking my Bird Jesus. I turned to my wife, "I told you! They are trying to take the gym!" She said, "we'll go battle them!" I explained that wasn't how it worked, we'd just have to wait and take the gym back after they were done. We got within range and watched from behind some palm trees as they continued to assault my gym.
My wife laughed and said I should go over and knock on their window and say hi. "I'm not going to give those Red or Yellow bastards the satisfaction! Go Pidgeot! Kick their ass!" Assault after assault came in, but Bird Jesus stood strong as we watched their headlights shine from behind their hiding spot behind subdivision's entrance sign.
Finally after a few more minutes they gave up and drove off. I yelled, "That's right! Stay off Team Blue's turf!" My wife looked at me like I was crazy and started walking home. I held my head high in victory as I watched Pidgeot fly majestically above the gym. Then I caught another friggin Rattata.
I think you chance of finding stuff increases if you're near more Pokestops. I usually find three Taurus's at a time near the biology building, I find two or three creatures on a block walk to CVS, etc.This game is blowing up as big as I thought it was.
Everyone I personally know is posting Pokemon Go pics/memes.
The find rate for anything short of driving is abysmal though.
10 miles and only 2 Pokemon, wat.

Go out for a walk since there's a PokeStop down the street from me, servers down lol
Didn't pay attention, but do we get daily Pokéball bonuses?
I wasted like 15 on a Raticate...
What do the pokestops do? I walked by 2 but when I touched them, I just got a white sphere in front of me with nothing to do on it?
Also ran into a Gym, but it wouldn't let me do anything since I'm not level 5.
There are a lot of really bad decisions in this game. Seems like that wristband thing is going to basically be mandatory.

Why do the servers suck so bad.
Correct

This was a pretty wise move.I think this is a benefit of just having Gen I for now. Those Pokemon are very familiar to most people, if there were random Gen V or whatever Pokemon around, I don't think it would catch on as it did.
The white sphere should be a picture of what the pokestop is (say, a fountain), and then you flick to spin that picture to claim the rewards.What do the pokestops do? I walked by 2 but when I touched them, I just got a white sphere in front of me with nothing to do on it?

It's like they don't want mobile to be a success.its almost like they didn't realize people like pokemon

Has there been any official comment on the request for PvP battles already? The game would boom even more than it already is lol.
That sucks. Now I can see they made the GoPlus to get around the app's limitations (aside from not having a pedometer).
I must live and work in the most joyless, soulless place in the universe. I don't know ANYBODY playing this game, haven't heard anyone IRL talk about it, or seen anyone play it.
I am SO JEALOUS of all of you that get to share this experience with friends, family, and colleagues.

I head out and get in the car only to have the servers shut down on me. ;_;
Caught a diglet, rattata, and sandshrew on my first walk, though servers made me lose a pidgy and zubat... sure hope they're working on them stability updates.
When I pointed out the greed in another thread, arms flew up. The tactic is messed up. Not counting steps unless the app is open? No notification if the app isn't open? Why. What do they gain by having the app open the entire time? Are investors demanding play time be above a certain amount of hours? Nothing about this app makes sense and if it weren't branded with the Pokemon logo I wouldn't even touch it.
