So, has anyone here played Ingress before Pokemon Go?

I got to level 6 in ingress before getting bored of the repetitiveness.

I am thinking about giving Pokemon Go a change, but I wonder what it add of new stuff when compared to Ingress (besides the skin)

In post 171, zoraster wrote:Ingress is arguably the deeper game right now from what I can tell but the Ui is terrible. The biggest appeal for me right now is its fad but phenomenon nature. I'd play it now or not play it.
Cool, actually I just found that it is only coming out here on the 22nd, so I will have up to there to decide :-)

Maybe because Niantic is an american company, or maybe because summer holidays only began this week.

Take your pick.

Yay, it is finally out here.

For some reason it is not available to my phone, though, just my tablet... Oh well.

So this weekend I went camping with some friends, and there was a lonely gym and two pokestops in the camp parking lot. We had a lot of fun completely taking over the Gym and training it up to the heavens with our noobish 400-600 bug pokes.

Then I go back to my university town and every single gym in the area has a 2000+ CP eevee evo sitting on on it :sadface:

So on my morning commute today, four or five gyms in the path to the university were taken by this guy with a level 33 account and a level 35 account (usernames were the same one with different suffixes). In each gym they left a ~3000CP Snorlax and a ~3000CP Dragonite.

The cynic in me wants to cry foul. I just lowered my head and hit the incense.

I managed to hunt down a poliwhirl today because of the tracking. That was pretty neat. Then I saw an Exeggutor in the tracker but couldn't find it before the friends who I was supposed to meet came. I'm almost reaching Lv 20.

I really hate it how it doesn't track walkign when the app is in the background. I can walk 5 km to/from work every day, but if I stash the tablet in my back and not carry it in my hand like an idiot it will go into sleep mode and not count the steps >_>
