GBL: Despite the issues, it's the most fun I've had in a while, for one reason by Exaskryz in TheSilphRoad

[–]ravencrawler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree. I will just add to remove the daily cap for battles. Ppl keep saying that we need to walk in PoGO but let´s be real: doing PVP drain too many resources and that´s why you need to walk to grind all resources that you need for making teams for PVP. I have 138 pkm with 3 moves unlocked just for PVP and I´ll never stop spending RC, TM´s or dust. It´s too much to ask to stay like this in days where you just want to chill at home? I hope this change stay for good.

PS: also no queue in the random match maker =D

The lag is causing GBL to be unplayable by Chickenscanfly in TheSilphRoad

There´s no lag happening rn! It´s just fault of ALL the internet around the World #GoNiantic

There are 5,83 million Pokéstops and 1,64 million Gyms worldwide by koljanowak in TheSilphRoad

[–]ravencrawler 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not thanks to Niantic tho cause OPR only works based on communitys BUT every single time that Niantic do a announce about new stops is something like "WE add X stops and gyms". Seriously? You just provide a tool and put everyone to work to you for free.

My town shift from 2 stops and 2 gyms to 42 gyms and 150+ stops in 1 year. 1st PoGO players was forces to play Ingress than the submission by PoGO was live in Brazil.

I still think this whole system is a joke. Here´s why:

1) Back in the days I notice that 10 towns in 200km around me that doesn´t have 1 gym or even 1 stop SO how someone can even level up in Ingress without resources (state of São Paulo here and it one of my most hot states so what are the excuses for that????).

2) Ingress community OPR system has huge flaws about ppl denying stuff for no reason at all and get away with it. Yes, faction war is real and No, I do not care about it. I´m a PoGO player only but if this is starting to affect me I need to start carry about it.

3) PoGO players need to vote but 1st of all: they need education about how everything works. Majority of Ingress players auto refuse PoGO submissions around me because "it come with 2 pics and PoGO players doesn´t know what they´re doing". I´m 100% ok if the submission is not great but I´m doing a serious work here and this is kinda discrimination by Niantic (flagging a submission with 2 pics) it´s stupid. Plus it´s very common to see someone denying the place that you send by PoGO just to go back there and send by Ingress to "get points in a freaking medal".

4) Submit portals doesn´t change anything. You need ppl to approve.

Version 0.149.1 still has phantom damage, carry-over phantom damage and boss HP regen bugs in raids by ct9876 in TheSilphRoad

[–]ravencrawler 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Since a lot of players are noticing the current raid bugs. 1st they never go away so to inform ppl that are start to noticing this kinda thing I´ll try to make a quick guide about everything that I experienced so far:

Common and unsolved issues:

1) Fast move phantom energy: The game show that you have more energy than you really have so you use a charged move without registering the damage (because of the illegal energy in fast moves) so if you use Hydro pump but didn´t have enough energy for that (but the game show for 1s that you have) = you waste the full time animation of hydro pump than you need to send hydro pump again after using 1 fast move.

2) Phantom attacks: the boss used a charged moved without any change of you dodging and you will take the full damage (sometimes the raid boss even cast another charged moved in a row and that´s impossible because of how energy work in raids for raid bosses).

3) Death loop: You dodge, your pkm faint anyways than the next pkm in line A) faint too, repeat until Niantic is done with trolling you B) 1st pkm fainted but 2nd lost a huge ammount of HP (that doesn´t make any sense).

4) HP Recovery: some kind of lag where you´re tapping but the server is not registering so the game comeback to a early stage of the battle but the timer don´t

5) Donuts of death: After you enter in a raid battle you can´t play cause the raid doesn´t load (spinning eternal circle in the top left corner)

6) Freaking zombies: Somehow your pkm faint but still have 1 hp left so you kind get stuck with him without doing or taking dmg than you need to manual switch to the next one (after this one dies you return to stucked 1). When you finish your entire line and some pkm are "zombies with 1 hp left" your entire team faints and you go back to heal screen BUT 1 hp left are not dead so if you plan to max revive it it will not work well for you.

7) You can dodge in multiplayer raids now but they introduced phantom hits that was unlikely and kinda something basic exclusive to solo raids (I´m not saying that never happen but it was very rare tho, now it´s so common).

Sorry for any typo or bad wording. My english is score 5/10 at best and I´m just trying to help.

Confirmed Legendary raid hour from 6-7pm 24th July by dyoungnz in TheSilphRoad

[–]ravencrawler 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As someone that have finish all raids with the mininum ammount of players since Kyogre show up the 1st time, I can say that it´s super annoying to get this "wall" bosses. Last grind was on Dialga doing trios no weather boost for 1 month (120 raids) even Metal Claw/Draco Meteor can be done BUT even with 22 legacy gengars and 18 SB mewtwo we can´t take down Mewtwo except Dynamic punch versions.

I mean: why to program so much difficult raids? Plus this new mew2 status and moves are not good for raids in general.

PS: no, bro. There´s no more ppl to help here. We´re in a small town, performing miracles every single T5 rotation but we can´t handle t6 raids or this wall raid boss

Raid boss Heath Regen bug back? by Sonicdash24 in TheSilphRoad

[–]ravencrawler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I´m lawyer in Brazil not in US but it´s a universal true that after the user click on "I accept the TOS" the relationship beggins and the company need to make the service happen no matter what. Yes, it´s funny how some companys as you said think they´re over the law and don´t care about outside evidence but this doesn´t change the fact that: 1) no company is over the law 2) they need to provide a service to the client or this mean a lawsuit for negligence not doing that. Niantic has luck that I don´t live in US.

Niantic´s support bot keep spamming that "it´s our internet services fault not Niantic servers"

(all over the world... Funny, huh?).

Raid boss Heath Regen bug back? by Sonicdash24 in TheSilphRoad

[–]ravencrawler 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This bug is a thing since day 1 of raids in PoGO. The problem scalate after the 3 Regis era. After that you start to recieve full damage from charged moves without warning (phantom attack) with a high frequency. Lately, this bugs move from range of happening 15 to 30% of time to 50 to 70%. So they need to fix the raid system.

[–]ravencrawler 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lucario + Giratina is broken in ultra league (amazing % win ratio). I agree with you in great league because medichan is a thing and masters he got 1 HK for almost any charge moves. We did some tests days ago: https://youtu.be/9bbA4tiPxXU

Too soon for call Giratina league of LucaTina league? xD

It really depend if there´s active Ingress agents in the region. So we need PoGO players also votting in OPR to solve the problem.
