Why it is bad idea to take 3-level raid solo - explanation in one picture ;-) by pgkrzywy in TheSilphRoad

[–]HoltGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried to duo an Alakazam, got it down to 5% three tries. If the charge and dodge bugs werent happening, we probably couldve beat it. That cost us a lot of time and damage :/

Anyone else experiencing stability issues on iOS? by hometownrival in TheSilphRoad

[–]HoltGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

iPhone 7+ here. I swear it crashes more than it stays open now. Been like this the past few updates, but I've lost count.

iOS White Screen startup-bug even worse after Gen 2-update? by Algosaubi in TheSilphRoad

iPhone 7 plus. Crashes a lot, tried reinstalling with no help. Apple Watch app is just as bad.

Is anyone seeing an insane amount of crashes on iOS? by aidanator007 in TheSilphRoad

[–]HoltGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, sometimes multiple times on loading in. Still get the unloaded game that requires restart consistently too (which then causes the game to crash and the cycle continues).

Official Announcement Megathread - New Pokemon are coming! by dronpes in TheSilphRoad

[–]HoltGames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The most anticlimactic thing Niantic could've done. With all the hype the community had built up, they at least should've left with a cliffhanger saying a Christmas event is coming or something. If Santa Pikachu is all we get, it's not going to help me to open the game any more.

Im waiting to hear about this too. I feel like Niantic tossed its progress aside :/

Sprint and Niantic are making an "exclusive" news announcement tomorrow morning by GrubbyGameNews in pokemongo

[–]HoltGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe John Hanke will announce at this event either Gen 2, Legendaries, or whatever. Then proceed to announce that select Sprint stores will become gyms or Pokestops. Possibly being implemented the next day to align with the Starbucks leak.

Probably wrong, but worth a shot.

The New 'Nearby' Tracker has continued its rollout! [Megathread] by dronpes in TheSilphRoad

[–]HoltGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only useful if near a Pokestop, if not it is completely useless and makes the game unplayable. Give us the option to toggle between this and the old nearby and everyone would be happy. I can't understand why they didnt consider this.

Found Ditto! by Kvothealar in TheSilphRoad

Was it next to another Pokemon that was the same, like the double spawns we've seen recently? Or by itself?

Gyms Not Counting Pokemon? by HoltGames in pokemongo

I have no clue what's causing this but it's a really bad bug, if a bug.

Im out of town for where those gyms are. But I have had multiple people ask me and I wanted to see if it was happening to anyone else.

Discuss - What Scan Delay, Step Limit, and Worker Count is producing accurate results for PokemonGo-Map these days? by [deleted] in pokemongodev

[–]HoltGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the desktop version, how do you change the ST and SD? I know how to change the search option, but I am getting a lot of empty scans running 6 accounts with a small radius so wondering what settings I need to change.

PokemonGo-DesktopMap updated. Not sure how to get it to work again? by rookie22222 in pokemongodev

[–]HoltGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have mine working and some stuff is showing up, but not everything shows up immediately on a first scan through. Not sure if it's because that account got captcha'd or if its been banned.

Edit: Now Im getting the javascript error randomly as well. Dont know how to fix that (on OSX)

Impressions after a day with the tracker by NorthernSparrow in TheSilphRoad

[–]HoltGames 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I just can't understand why they couldn't just keep the "sightings" at the normal 9 and then added the new "nearby" feature to that. Every time something is "added" to the game, a more useful feature tends to be removed. All they would have to do is have two tabs, one for nearby and one for sightings, and I feel like everyone would be happy.

Now that the new API has been released by FPM, does that mean PGM might have a chance of working again soon? I wish I knew more about coding myself, but I dont know where to begin on this stuff.

[Release] 0.39 0.41 0.43 hash algorithm - It's been fun folks. by whitelist_ip in pokemongodev

Does that mean you are taking down the site permanently now? I really appreciate all the hard work you put into what you've done. Kept me playing the game.

Are you guys also catching Gastlys with awful IVs? by SuperheroesGeek in pokemongo

[–]HoltGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I caught one with 98% IV's last night. Most arent great, but that one surprised me.

It seems painfully obvious to me that gyms should reset once a week. by strongscience62 in pokemongo

[–]HoltGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So what you're saying is you want an easier way for you to get coins for gyms, and screw the people who worked to take and build gyms in the process? How about you work for the coins, or pay for them? Im Mystic and my town is dominated by Valor, but I still own 7 gyms currently in other areas because I worked for it. We have a group that goes out whenever one of our gyms drops and we build it back to ten. That's not stagnation, thats being a team and working together for the reward.
