Was at a pokestop. Spun the ring to get pokeballs. Got a pop up window that said network connection, then the game forced me out. Tried to reopen game, and all I got was failed to authenticate. Was looking it up online, and apparently it is a know bug with the current game version. If you sign up with the Google/Gmail option, you have a chance of having this happen and permanently loosing your account. Very dissatisfied with this game. Very glad I didnt donate money.
UPDATE: For some reason it let me back in... Not to sure what changed, or why all of a sudden it was able to authenticate whereas before it couldnt. Still kinda upset with the amount of bugs the game has.... Theres definitely quite a few. Pokémon Go has some major potential, Im highly surprised the developers havent spent more time fixing what needs fixing. TBH if they did actually clear out all the bugs, I would consider donating to them. Until then Id rather spend my money elsewhere.
