Re: Niantic shut down pokemon hunting sites

[(Anonymous)]

it's not about the side sites being shut down (though they temporarily made up for the failure of the game's tracking) it's that Niantic had an essential feature and removed that feature

tracking is essential to the gameplay, just because you've done fine "stumbling upon" things doesn't mean that's how the game is supposed to function, and was promised to function.

Is there some statement from the company stating definitively how the game is supposed to function? The fact that they took this feature away suggests that they don't think it's essential, but I don't know if they put out any statements contradicting that. It sounds like there's a lot of people who have decided that the way they prefer to play is the way it's supposed to be played, but I've heard nothing from the people who made it.

I'm not seeing anything on the website that suggests they expected people to spend time tracking specific pokemon the way people did with the hunting sites.

there's no statement from Niantic on anythig because they're a shit company with awful communication. but the teaser trailer for GO featured arrows pointing in the direction of pokemon, and meter distance (which was in the original beta version). because the beta version's meters were often off, they switched to footprints as representations of distance, they later said measuring that distance was putting strain on the servers, so everything became three "footprints" away until they could fix it. since they've removed the footprints all together with NO communication about fixing the issue or finding a replacement, a lot of people are rightly pissed off. instead of finding a solution to the problem, they just deleted the feature and aren't speaking to their customers at all.

...again, not sure how many times I have to repeat this, I'm not talkig about side sites, I'm talking about the in-game tracker.

the weird thing is I still have three footprints on all my Pokemon. (not that it makes any functional difference, but it's odd. And my apps are set to auto-update)
