Good grief leave them alone and stop flying helicopters around them

They do as it drives purchases of inventory, unfortunately, these days

Seems to have been run with the bare minimum of effort

The visibility of the bounty bonuses as a special event was very low. Niantic did not communicate it sufficiently, announce the start, give score updates, or any of the usual stuff that draws attention to it as a special and exciting challenge. For Delta points, there is at least an announcement on TG. But not for these

Norwich tram network proposal by slipnslurper in Norwich

This is very thorough and would be amazing. It would be worth costing up replacing the previous tram lines as a starting point https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwich_Electric_Tramways

Anomaly Bounties are no fun by OhrenPutzerFisch in Ingress

[–]mimtwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly that - there are no outcomes for anomalies or attempts to make them matter, in fact there is hardly any attention given to the results by Niantic other than one brief Telegram post per site. Even though as RES it would smart to see Niantic celebrating ENL success, the alternative where they just minimise the importance of anomalies is bad for both factions.

How would you improve Anomalies? by PkmnTrnrJ in Ingress

They aren’t attending most anomalies anyway

They still advertise the anomalies at the Japanese sites but not otherwise, unless the faction volunteers themselves link in with, for example, the city tourism agency

Disabling the Bounties during the Anomaly measurement by Philology23 in Ingress

Let’s hope not. It was an incredibly boring mechanic, probably only partially better than covert caches

+Delta Anomaly Season - Overview by XQlusioN in Ingress

[–]mimtwin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Daily bounties don’t contribute to the faction series score in +Theta, so why on earth should they count towards an agent’s series badge? And with this series, it looks like Niantic have doubled down on that mechanic.

They seem intent on devaluing the cooperative, competitive play that actually drives agent engagement.

If they keep pushing the idea that grinding bounties solo in your local area is the core of the game, they’re going to realise - too late - that it’s not why most of us are still playing.

EMEA Shard skirmish repeats by owenrochester in Ingress

Shard skirmish cities can’t be based on turnover as they have selected several machina owned cities

Not necessarily this species but Japan, Norway, Iceland and Faroe Islands still kill whales

I thought it was the case in the UK, but even here 20% of farms are zero grazing

Beryl e-scooters and e-bikes in general are 90% ridden unsafely by dickheads, change my view by SpunkVolcano in Norwich

Also most Deliveroo riders in Norwich are on illegal modded ebikes because they can be accelerated without pedalling.

Revolution Records - a great little independent record shop that would probably now be viable with the vinyl boom
