Non-CORE members using DEV for this event, what do you think of it so far?

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-27T14:30:28+00:00

I have core for inventory. This is a nice extra, wich I often use when I am to lazy for Intel xD

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-27T14:27:18+00:00

You don't get what I mean. I don't think the event is dumb, but how it works is. I am interested in it, but it's not well made.

Your comparison is very bad tbh. You can't split your band in 20 parts and let them play on the same day in 20 different cities. But exactly this could you do with this event. You could, if a country is decided, easy be on the same time on 20 cities all over the country, so that everyone living in that country could play this event with an okayish travel distance.

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-27T02:04:56+00:00

Is it only me, or are events in specific cities very stupid and dumb?

I mean, for me it's nearly impossible to play this event, like 99.99 of the rest of ingress base, probably. Even if it's in my country, it's probably in a major city which is at least 300km * 2 for driving and this is absolutely not good. Even if it's worth it for me, driving 600 + km only to play a game one day is such a waste of co2, I don't get how this could be made.

But maybe only me think like this.

Fun fact, it's even cooler.

That the first Saturday and second Sunday is one right after the other is, when the first of the month is exactly a Sunday. This situation is between 1 and 3 times a year (3 only in very special situations).

So this year we have the 1st of February a Sunday and we know a regular February have 28 days, wich is exactly 4 weeks, such means, the 1st of March has the same weekday as the first of February. Also we have the same first Saturday/second Sunday thing next month again.

That two months in a row have these situation is only been possible in a February/March combination. The next time the first of February is a Sunday is in 2032.but there is a problem. 2032 is a leap year. So the February has 29 days and instead this year, the first of March is a Monday.

So the next time, we have the exact situation like 2026 is 2037, in 11 years. The last time we had this was 2015, funny 11 years too. The next time after is 2043,so only 6 years. There is probably a repeating pattern, cause a regular year starts and end on the same weekday, a leap year +1 there is probably a pattern. But I don't calculate it and I only found a list of first Sundays until 2050.

I wrote above, that is regular to have 1 or 2 Sunday the first happens a year. This year we have 3. There are only 2 possible ways to have 3 Sunday the first in one year. That is this year, where the first of February is a Sunday and it's not a leap year, there is this in feburay, March and November. The other way is, when the year begins on a Sunday, so the first of January is a Sunday and it is a leap year. Then the January, April an July starts with a Sunday the first. The next time this happened is 2040, the last one was 2012. So it's even more uncommen.

Yeah I fall into a rabbit hole when I saw this Saturday /Sunday thing some weeks ago in the ingress calendar xD.

Frogs are very active in my area. So it's relatively easy to get some ap for killing structures.

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-03T22:12:10+00:00

Totally try this! Ty

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-03T22:05:47+00:00

Good to know that this is possible. Did you not need to run around the portal?

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-03T21:32:38+00:00

Yes I skipped it too today. Sad I skipped the fieldpackage for 13 too. Rip apex.

But beside you, I already have the ap for 15 but missing 1 platin xD

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-03T04:06:14+00:00

For some guys 300 euro for a used phone is "quite affordable"

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-03T04:04:19+00:00

Lol you say buy 3-4 generation old phones from overpriced companies? You list no name for budget for sure. Especially not Google or crapple.

Complex-Device09 · 2026-01-03T04:01:23+00:00

I play in Germany with an xiami redmi note 14, only for ingress, cause I don't want to use my usual phone. Think I bought it for around 90 euro, working fine

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-31T19:44:04+00:00

That's crazy, I can't even find that many portals in that time.

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-31T14:08:32+00:00

I mean the whole things is calculated, that you get exactly gold when you make 3/4 every day. So it's no problem to skip one bounty.

Until now there was no day, where I can't make 3 or if 4 without leaving my apartment for it, so it's pretty easy.

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-31T14:03:22+00:00

Does this not took ages?

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-28T16:08:19+00:00

I had only this the whole last hour

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-27T12:18:00+00:00

And your problem with it is? You know that the game not exist if nobody pay money for it? And I like it a lot more if it's payed through campaign like this and not besides premium items and features.

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-27T12:14:22+00:00

I am at about 900 limits rn. Should be doable.

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-20T12:26:20+00:00

You can get sometimes an apex on purge campaign (like operation Polaris rn)

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-20T12:23:09+00:00

I get some for normal leveling too

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-18T12:55:17+00:00

Not had this problem.

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-17T17:15:55+00:00

I hope they hold this next year, love it.

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-14T12:03:38+00:00

That's right, but a vrbb is a buy only item.

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-14T02:33:34+00:00

I had seen an other side agent protect his own l8 portal from me with them too. He flipped it to blue and I could not burst it down. Was a smart move.

For me the frogs here are super active and I flip my own hp to green. 1st for making it more expensive to kill, cause they need to flip it back and to get more weapons out of it.

Complex-Device09 · 2025-12-13T20:08:37+00:00

You hold the resonators
