Thank you Niantic for the six months of fun but I here by quit! The game has gone to hell in a hand basket. Us non cheaters can no longer play legally. The rules are so heavy to forbid cheaters you forgot about your honest players. Im here by deleting my account and saying good bye!
Why am I only allowed one PokeStop spin per game play?
The whole point of the game is to grind at pokestops. Whats the point of this if you get the message "Try again later." This is b.s. I live in a rural area where I have several walking trails where its a 5-10 minute loop and Im back at the same pokestop. Ive noticed this even on the longer 40 minute walking trails with 15+ stops. I can only collect items once. If I turn around I cant collect items. How can I play if I cant even collect items. This glitch has started around November 2016 and its still going on. If any thing its gotten worse. Apparently this makes game play in my break room at work cheating...
Speed lock needs to be disabled or settings reduced!
I can no longer play inside, in a field, on a bike, jogging or speed walking. All these options send the game into speed lock mode and disable 90% of the game functions. This is b.s. Isnt the whole point of the game to go outside and explore? When I am a passenger I can no longer collect items in down town areas. The children in my family loved the game when it came out but they can no longer play as a passenger. They quit as well. This is generally the only time they can collect items.
Egg hatching is glitched?!?
Recently I have noticed that 10 km eggs are rare and I might happen by one once ever five months or so. Since the baby pokemon are guaranteed in the 10 km eggs I no longer see other spawns. Real time traveled to calculated game time traveled is not equal. Ive calculated several walks in many different variances and noticed the game is not equal to that of reality. By the way their straight line walks.
Time to distance traveled off?
The buddy system is glitched and I have noticed that its not at all uncommon for my 5 km eggs to hatch before my buddy finds a 3 km egg. I found several straight lined walking paths that should have garneted me 2, 5 km eggs hatched and 2 buddy candies. Im lucky if I can hatch 0.5 or 1 egg and lucky if I even get a buddy candy. Some thing is off here.
Is grinding forbidden?
Since the "Try again later." message keeps appearing in the pokestops one can no longer play the game. The only way you can play is if you collect items form pokestops. How can you play if you cant grind?
Time play limited??
My cell phone can go 2-3 hours with the game in medium settings. After about an hour I find I spend more time restarting the game than actually playing. For one that has to go out of their way to play this is ridicules. I might only grind play four hours a week. Generally all in one day.
Let me kick you out of the game with a forced updates and unstable servers.
The forced updates are not friendly to avid mmorpg players. Ive been an mmorpg player most of my life and this is the first game that kicks you out without warning. Just offline in the middle of game play. With the game being above 100 mb I now have to return to my computer to download it. This is b.s. as I generally have to regain access to it after school or work. If Im on vacation away from a wifi zone or computer the update isnt going to happen.
I could go on and on but these are the main reasons why Im quitting. How can I play a game if I cant even play it legally?!
