I only got the update a couple days ago and have had precious little time to try it, but tbh I never used tracking. I wish it was still there because I think it's a great, useful feature, and I'd LIKE to use it, but I live in a pretty shit area for Pokemon Go anyway so I'm not that motivated.

I just wonder if the update adjusted the rate at which Pokemon escape from Pokeballs, or if they'll do that later. I'm only level 14 and sometimes I can't even catch a fucking Pidgey without it escaping five times.

Apparently they did tweak the ball-capture dynamics and have acknowledged it's a bug they are fixing because apparently it's way off from what it should be.

Ah, that's good to know! (As long as that dynamic is, 'It shouldn't be this difficult to capture a low to mid-level Pokemon' and not, 'this should be four times more difficult', because I would give the game up entirely.)

From what I've experienced since the update, the freezing after catching Pokemon seems to be less prominent. Not sure if that will hold up or if other people have experienced it as well, but that pleased me.

I only figured out how the tracking worked like the day before it went away, so the loss didn't really factor in for me.

The escape rate, and smaller catching circle is what's throwing me atm. I'm wasting so many balls!

I'm wasting so many balls!

That both sounds dirty, and sums up my entire Pokemon Go experience. "Pokemon Go: The wasting of the balls."

At this point having 50 Pokeballs should give me like...four Pokemon. (Slight exaggeration, but I have seriously wasted like ten Pokeballs on semi-high level Pokemon before.)

I might have intended it to sound dirty. :P

But yeah, I got a bunch more Pokeballs yesterday from going past some Pokestops on the way to grocery shopping and it already feels like I've pissed a good chunk of them away just trying to catch Pidgey's or Caterpie's, the eff man?

I don't go near enough Pokestop's on a daily basis, don't do this to me. D:

It's hard (*cough*) to get enough Pokeballs, isn't it? I'm jealous of people who live right on or next to a Pokestop and can get more at any time. I would play the game more if collecting Pokeballs wasn't such a pain in the ass.

I 'play' while grocery shopping so I can rack up a bit more distance for egg hatching, but I'm not constantly looking at my phone.

It's a bit easier with someone's help I find. :P

There's a gym near where I live that has a block of flats on either side, I am very jealous of the people that live there and I wouldn't be surprised if the person that holds the gym lives in one of those flats(there's also a Pokestop on the other side of the road from it too, lucky placement man).

I tend to do the same thing for egg-hatching tbh.
