I love how Pokémango is terrible at knowing when you're not moving.

I've hatched two 5km eggs despite not moving from my desk today

Nzall

@badp you, my friend are terrible at Age of Empires

I mean, isn't the second tutorial stage just "gather 200 of each resource?"

with no enemies on the map whatsoever?

not even a boar to suicide your villager into

sequoiad

@Nzall not if he's playing that horrible mobile AoE port from a while ago

badp

@Nzall I dunno, it was something like "you only have this triangle of land in a corner of the map, good luck"

Q: Using same account in two phones

If two phones use the same google account, Can i log in while other person is already playing ? Is the other person kicked out?

badp

but yes as I said this genre is not for me at all

1:11 PM

@sequoiad we don't speak of that

As in, I hadn't heard that was a thing and hate you for changing that

sequoiad

the curse has been moved

I may sleep at night again

Nzall

@sequoiad you mean the one that came before the current Android and iOS invasion?

I can't even find it online anymore

sequoiad

@Nzall any of them. They all caused massive pain as my childhood memories and nostalgia were corrupted

Nzall

In other news, Reddit still inexplicably has /r/nosleep as a default subreddit

Are fake horror stories really that popular?

Q: Pokémon go won't start on mobile data

I downloaded and installed version 0.29.2 of pokemon go on my Android phone, running lollipop. The app works fine most of the time, however, when I open the app without a WiFi connection (with mobile data on and working), it gets stuck on around 20% on the loading screen and doesn't budge. The ...

Bridge, i ordered all the computer bits forever from Newegg. Will they come in one box if they were one order? If so, I should warn my landlords who accept my packages because I don't want them to leave a bajillion dollars of computer just by my door outside.

user15026

Because that is going to be one large box.

Kevin van der Velden

Uuuh, no idea :D

isn't in a country where newegg is a thing

user15026

I just don't want like 800 dollars of stuff sitting outside is all

Kevin van der Velden

Yeaaaah

Unionhawk

1:34 PM

D:

Kevin van der Velden

:D

Unionhawk

DvZ has an end-of-life plan now

Well, end-of-life as in it'll survive 6 months after they decide to stop streaming it but they're having fun with the streams so it might last a while?

Nzall

@Ash just ask them if they could hold onto them until you are home

Unionhawk

I should play that game again/some more

Nzall

unless that costs extra of course

but I doubt your landlord is that kind of pennypincher

Unionhawk

1:36 PM

and stream some possibly but I don't know if I could possibly explain what the hell is going on with this game uni

fredley

@Ash Take a sickie?

Unionhawk

I think I'll probably need to renew my premium to do that though at this point since it's probably high server population lately

Nzall

Fucking hell, PCworld, why the fuck do you have autostarting videos as 1st party ads on your service?

Kevin van der Velden

Because they want you to use adblock

Nzall

@KevinvanderVelden I am

But because they come from the same server, they're not considered ads

Unionhawk

1:39 PM

Ha

Nzall

pcworld.com/article/155571/…

that's the page if you want to check for yourself

user15026

@Nzall that's the plan

user15026

Want to call myself Ash in Pokemon because that's what I go by now mostly but don't want to deal with the jokes people will likely end up making #pokemonproblems

Unionhawk

Pokemon GO? Almost definitely taken

Kevin van der Velden

Yeaaaah

Unionhawk

1:41 PM

Uni was taken

So I couldn't even go Unionhawk/Uni as my 2 accounts (it's not sockpuppetry unless the accounts interact right?)

fredley

fredley was taken

user15026

Araleith was free so i will just use that because I have yet to encounter anyone taking it

Unionhawk

> It's a terrible game that nobody should play, but if you're a Pokemon fan, you're going to love it

Kevin van der Velden

Yourdoom was free :D

Unionhawk

That's probably the best review of Pokemon GO ever

sequoiad

1:46 PM

suprisingly accurate

Unionhawk

> They accidentally created the Pokemon MMO guys

Hahahahahaha yes

Derpy

@Unionhawk So, any clue why I like the original games and still think Pokémon Go so far has very little to offer? -_-

Unionhawk

because Pokemon GO does have very little to offer

NEXT QUESTION

user15026

@Derpy easy. It's simple, it doesn't have a lot of the depth of the games.

user15026

You kinda answered your own question.

sequoiad

1:49 PM

the main thing it's made me want to do is go back and replay Blue on my original, off-white Gameboy

user15026

People need to stop comparing it to Pokemon main series games in terms of depth and mechanics. It's not there yet. It might never be there, because I don't think that's entirely what they're trying to do

Unionhawk

It won't get there. Like, they can't have NPCs or anything

I mean, they could hire guys to be NPCs if they implemented battles

but

Kevin van der Velden

@Unionhawk they could have stuff like that

Though it'd be a "Hey you're getting a call from $NPC" thing

Derpy

Would have been enough to have select able attacks, multiple stats and some battling outside the "capture gym" stuff.

sequoiad

yeah, not being able to challenge friends in the old turn-based style... :/

i assume trading will come in at some point

Unionhawk

1:53 PM

Yeah, the battle style is dumb

Kevin van der Velden

I don't get why they ditched the turn-based style

Unionhawk

It's super dumb

Kevin van der Velden

Or well, why they chose this style

DAMNIT NOW I WANT TO MAKE A BETTER POKEMON-LIKE BATTLING SYSTEM FOR MOBILE

sequoiad

meanwhile, at Niantic HQ: "hey guys, you know what was super-popular? Clicker Heroes!"

or possibly cookie clicker

Derpy

Well, at the risk of begin over pessimistic, I am fearing they don't have the minimal idea of the direction they want to go with the game. They had Ingress, and they "re-textured" it for Pokémon

sequoiad

1:55 PM

i dont know, that all melded into one after a while

user15026

@Derpy I suspect that was entirely what they wanted to do at least to start

Sterno

Pokemon GO isn't an RPG

Unionhawk

No

Well

Sterno

That's important to understand when you start complaining about how it's not like the other games

Nzall

Nzall was taken, RealNzall wasn't

user15026

1:56 PM

They wanted a pokemon thing that would get people interested and outside. This worked.

Unionhawk

Anything can be an RPG if you're dedicated enough to the RP part of things

Nzall

so yeah, my Pokémon go name is the same as my Reddit and Twitter accounts

Sterno

Any idiot can tap a screen repeatedly

Kevin van der Velden

@Sterno I mean, it's kinda an RPG?

Private Pansy

@Nzall *registers FakeNzall*

Sterno

1:56 PM

They want the maximum number of idiots playing.

Kevin van der Velden

It certainly has RPG elements

Nzall

@PrivatePansy you can't even write my name right?

user15026

Also they wanted it to grab a wider market, and this is something just about anyone can play because it is so damn simple

Private Pansy

@Nzall shhh, that never happened

Nzall

@PrivatePansy That's better

GnomeSlice

1:57 PM

The name GnomeSlice was taken

user15026

If the server crashes are any indication they have super succeeded

GnomeSlice

in the pokemon thing

Sterno

@KevinvanderVelden You have to lower the bar pretty far to call it that. I mean, sure, "it has things that have stats", but that's about it

And let's be honest... the only two stats that matter are "type" and "CP"

sequoiad

it had the potential to be the ultimate pokemon game... but sadly that potential seems to have been thrown out in favour of shovelling it out the door with minimal actual gameplay.

Nzall

My dad tried it the day it got released. He struggled with how to throw a pokeball

Kevin van der Velden

1:58 PM

It's a bad dungeon looter, if you see the pokemon as equipment

Nzall

he just dragged them over to the pokemon

then he couldn't choose his preferred name and said "dumb game".

GnomeSlice

Its like that facebook basketball game

user15026

@sequoiad I don't think it was ever intended to be that though

Sterno

I think Pokemon fans would be happier if they stopped thinking of it as a Pokemon game and started thinking of it as a Pokemon-skinned game

user15026

This.

GnomeSlice

1:58 PM

I just played out for

Unionhawk

@GnomeSlice Yes

GnomeSlice

it for 3 minutea

s

seems kinda bad

but I can see the appeal i guess

sequoiad

@Ash yeah I know... but still. maybe later it could pave the way for that game

user15026

Kinda bad compared to?

GnomeSlice

Any other game ever

but the travel component is neat

Arperum

1:59 PM

How acceptable is setting your workpc on fire for it being contaminated with candy crush?

GnomeSlice

and i bet it's a lot more accessible than Ingress

sequoiad

@Arperum why are you even hesitating?

Sterno

There are two things that are cool about the game:
1) It gets you out of the house and moving around. You might go visit places in your area you otherwise wouldn't.
2) Because it's so hugely popular, for me at least it's fun to be inside that pop phenomenon while it's going. And it's cool seeing 10 kids running around the park having fun with it.

sequoiad

quick, before it spreads!

GnomeSlice

@Sterno Yeah, that's neat

Sterno

2:00 PM

The gameplay itself is obviously awful.

user15026

@GnomeSlice so far it seems to be, and has gotten more people into it than Ingress did

Arperum

@sequoiad Because the other poeple in this office might not be so accepting.

fredley

Bah, I searched for that but couldn't find the dupe.

user15026

@Sterno it's definitely got issues, because otherwise we wouldn't have a million questions.

user15026

I just get tired of the but it isn't reaaaaaal Pokemon argument

Sterno

2:01 PM

Yeah. I mean, it's true. It's not a real Pokemon game. It's not trying to be. It wasn't advertised as one. Get over it.

Unionhawk

They haven't genetically engineered electric mice, 0/10 not real pokemon

Arperum

All I care about is the stupid hoarding mentality I always run into in games >_> So I want to complete my collection, don't really care about the gyms.

user15026

@Sterno thank you :p

fredley

@Sterno It's 100000 times better than most other popular mobile games though (CoC...)

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum Yes

Sterno

2:03 PM

@fredley That might be true. The only popular mobile game I've played much was whatever the CoC spin-off was, which was kind of fun until you (very early on) run into the paywall

fredley

@Sterno I don't need to be happier. An (extremely well) skinned pokéman game is all I want. Maximum overnostalge.

Nzall

@Arperum just uninstall it using right-click-> uninstall

You're talking about the Windows 10 version right?

Sterno

I do know that I'm pretty sick of collecting pidgeys and ratattas

fredley

@Sterno All the popular (addictive) games seem to be based around tapping things in a time-limited fashion, and you can pay to speed it up. Candy Crush is just bejeweled with this same mechanic.

Sterno

and weedles. So many weedles

Nzall

2:04 PM

@Arperum If your company was any competent, it would distribute a custom image that didn't have Windows Store or any of the presold apps anyway

sequoiad

@Sterno every second one that spawns near me is a Drowzee... getting very sick of them now.

Sterno

@Wipqozn doesn't even have a weedle.

fredley

What I like about Pokémans Go is the mechanic. Yes, Ingress was sorta the same, but by Pokémoon branding it, they've made it have the player-mass necessary to make it actually work.

GnomeSlice

how similar is it

fredley

I've caught 4 weedles today sitting at my desk

GnomeSlice

2:05 PM

Why do you keep catching them

Kevin van der Velden

My work place is a desert devoid of pokemon

Sterno

I like PGO better than Ingress other than the fact that it crashes/glitches/serverdisconnects so often

fredley

@GnomeSlice You have to move to (the same set of) real world places to get points.

Arperum

@Nzall The HD still needs ritual cleansing by fire.

Kevin van der Velden

@GnomeSlice you can send them to a grinder for XP

fredley

2:05 PM

@GnomeSlice To get candies and dust so I can maximise the utility of my lucky eggs

sequoiad

@GnomeSlice need that precious, precious XP

Sterno

Ingress did get me out and show me a bunch of parks in my area I had no idea about, though, which ended up having me take my kids to them. That was cool.

Arperum

@Nzall Not my company. Consultancy job.

fredley

@sequoiad dust more like

Kevin van der Velden

@fredley when do you get those anyway?

Derpy

2:05 PM

@Sterno Don't get me wrong, but I think it may be important for you to understand what I (and probably the others) means by "not like the other games" too. No leveling, no tm, no ability to customize you pokémon via EV training, no ability to chose attacks, no double battles, RANDOM evolution etc. I didn't expect the game to be the same. But while Mistery Dungeon actually feels like Siren No Dungeon with Pokémons, this one doesn't yet feel like a classical Pokémon game.

I can also understand that they wanted to keep it simple like it is not a "Polémon game" but a smartphone Pokémon Game... but then please next time don't build up hype in the preview video for features you still don't have (and maybe you wont ever have) youtube.com/watch?v=2sj2iQyBTQs = > trading, battling against real people and look. The pokemons are shown having levels, not cp

fredley

My top-tier pokémin need dust to level up

@KevinvanderVelden Level 10 is the first I think

sequoiad

yeah thats handy, but i just get enough to get big xp boosts from evolving the things every few hours

Sterno

@Derpy I can understand being upset about misleading advertising. I hadn't seen that.

Nzall

@Arperum Same thing. If the computer provider has any real computer department, it'd provide custom Windows 10 that doesn't have most of the preinstalled bloatware

KutuluMike

@fredley ingress only allowed you to do anything meaningful at the portal spots. PO:GO spawns pokemon everywhere. IMO, that makes it more fun.

Q: Can I discard eggs?

I have a load of 2.0km eggs which I don't really care for cluttering up my inventory. Is there any way to get rid of them without incubating them?

pokemon-go

Sterno

This game definitely feels like they kind of pooped it out and then were massively surprised when people played it.

Kevin van der Velden

@KutuluMike yes

fredley

6 mins ago, by fredley

Bah, I searched for that but couldn't find the dupe.

Arperum

@Nzall Yes. And I have nothing to say about what I get.

fredley

@Sterno Well, the server infrastructure seems that way

Kevin van der Velden

2:07 PM

@fredley bad mod, not knowing every question ever

fredley

The game itself is reasonably polished, they didn't skimp on the models or animations

@KevinvanderVelden I feel terrible. I should hand in my diamond.

Arperum

@KutuluMike the spawnspots are rather specific though. Especially noticeable on areas with barely any pokemon at all.

fredley

I searched for 'discard' and 'throw away' but nothing came up

KutuluMike

@fredley but not pokemon-go egg ?

Arperum

@Derpy How many years did it take to implement all those things into the games?

fredley

2:09 PM

@KutuluMike That too, but it wasn't on the first page of results (therefore it doesn't exist)

Sterno

@fredley Eh. Completely lack of tutorial or any sort of explanation of most things. Egg screen surprisingly hard to find. A bunch of minor bugs (like the tracking not working right... but maybe that's just a server issue too?). It forgetting my preferences every time I relog (so I have to remute sound, etc). Constantly having to reset the app because it freezes or gets in a bad state (also possibly server-related, though)

I mean, yeah, it looks pretty.

Also, no way to mass transfer pokemon or mass delete items

KutuluMike

there is a kind-of tutorial.

fredley

@Sterno Yeah, I think they underestimated popularity, but in order not to they'd have had to expect it to be the most popular, fastest growing app of all time

KutuluMike

but it's far too well hidden

Wipqozn

@Sterno At least I never need to know the frustration of wanting to catch some Pokemon only ti discover the servers are down OH SNAP.

fredley

2:10 PM

@Sterno Yeah this is a pain

Arperum

@Sterno The preferences are the worst.

KutuluMike

there is a "? Tips" option in the menu.

Sterno

And these are problems Ingress had too. it's not like they're brand new problems they couldn't have expected

fredley

@Wipqozn It's when they're half-working, so you can throw a ball at a rare pokemon only for it to crash

Derpy

@Arperum counter question: did the original Pokémon red/blue/green game trailer featured features that the game didn't have like ... megaevolutions?

fredley

2:11 PM

The worst

Sterno

(though, to be fair, the UI is mostly better than ingress)

Wipqozn

@fredley Glorious. I hope this happens to everyone every time.

Arperum

@Derpy Hell if I know. DId they even have a trailer?

fredley

It took we a while to realise you needed to spin pokéstahps

Unionhawk

@Wipqozn Yeah well at least my phone isn't actually a dinosaur

OH SNAP

KutuluMike

2:12 PM

I always forget that GPS works better when you have Wi-Fi on.

Derpy

@Sterno not really upset. Just a little sad. I hoped to battle for a while with friends. So far you can't really. Will wait, maybe they will add it in the future.

Unionhawk

arda

Am currently sitting in a park and playing Pogo with my sister

Sterno

2:14 PM

Niantic's communication is pretty awful too

Arperum

@MBraedley don't try to drop the poekball, swipe it in the direction of the pokemon.

Derpy

@Arperum The point was that your comparison seemed unfair: the original games never claimed to have feature they still didn't have. Pokémon Go in a way "overpromised" features they will hopefully add in the future. My delusion is just that. So far, the game doesn't live up to its trailer.

MBraedley

@Arperum I tried that

KutuluMike

@Derpy maybe it thought it was a movie

Sterno

Anyway, want to go back in time and buy Nintendo stock

fredley

2:14 PM

@Derpy It has a trailer? I thought all it had was hype.

MBraedley

I'll try again when I get home

arda

@Sterno sell it all

user15026

@arda it made me smile.

Arperum

@fredley Also this.

user15026

@fredley looks about right ;)

Derpy

2:16 PM

BTW, just to know. Based on what I saw so far, it seems that the Pokémon spaw rates aren't really based on area but on the "number of people in the area?". Is that really the truth? I have seen videos of people getting nothing for ages while walking in outdoor, country/mountain roads and then getting tons of encounters in the city...

Arperum

@MBraedley server issues maybe. I failed to throw on the starter choice one, after failing three times in some way (still not having a clue what I was doing, I was trying to drop the pokeball on the pokemon) I magically caught it somehow.

user15026

Aww, no pokemon while I was waiting for the bus. Maybe the tattoo shop will have pokemon

Wipqozn

Thanks Bell, I really needed to know that

@KevinvanderVelden sort of. The bisexuwhale with the homosexuwhale colouring

I just wanna see what I can get

Arperum

Closest gym is something like 4-5km I think.

user15026

That's how I have always liked to play Pokemon anyhow

SaintWacko

@Ash Same here. All the gyms are so much more powerful than I am :(

Arperum

@Ash Gyms are not important if you don't care about the competitive aspect, having at least one pokestop somewhat nearish is very convenient, because you can get pokeballs and eggs from it.

fredley

2:25 PM

@KevinvanderVelden woah

Kevin van der Velden

Gyms to park a pokemon in because you can get the currency

fredley

I'm level 11, slowing down to less than one level a day

user15026

@Arperum I have a few within a couple blocks :)

Florian Peschka

@Ash well yeah, I WANT to be like that too. but then again, I also want to play with them, not just collect them

I feel like a MMR system for gyms would help immensely

so even casual players can compete in their bracket so to say

fredley

@KevinvanderVelden Living in busy part of city, I cannot park pokémans anywhere, they all get replaced within hours if not minutes

Kevin van der Velden

2:27 PM

@fredley park them, claim coins

Arperum

@Ash Living in the middle of nowhere has some disadvantages, having a single stop in a miles wide range is one of them.

Kevin van der Velden

(There's a button you can press somewhere hidden on the store page that claims coins, you can do this every 21 hours)

fredley

@KevinvanderVelden Yeah, but then you can't claim any more than 10/day

sequoiad

@fredley yeah that's my problem as well, this gym is a train station and it changes hands every few minutes

fredley

Ideally you go around taking down a load of gyms and try and get to 10 before you claim

This is not possible

@sequoiad All the gyms near me change this frequently

When I place a potatoes in a furnace instead of a cooked potatoe it's a poisonous potatoe. Whenever I place raw chicken, raw beef, of raw porkchops, it cooks into raw mutton. And when I put raw mutton in it, it becomes rotten flesh. Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?

Arperum

Tim Stone

I blame @Unionhawk

But this is excellent news

Unionhawk

Huh what?

fredley

@Arperum I've filled my bag so many times

Unionhawk

Why am I responsible for knowing what got added in Java 7

I've thrown away hundreds of pokébools

Tim Stone

@Unionhawk I mean, someone has to make sure I don't miss out on critical information

Unionhawk

I'm a C# developer

fredley

@TimStone gotta capture them all?

Arperum

@fredley I'm currently at 9 eggs and it's taking forever to hatch them because I can't be arsed to go walk around. ALso time related issues.

Tim Stone

2:39 PM

@fredley Exactly

Kevin van der Velden

I still want to hook my phone up to my robot vacuum

Tim Stone

@Unionhawk I know, and you already had named capture groups, which is why you should have been excited for me and let me know

fredley

@Arperum Stay in a place with patchy GPS reception. As your phone switches between wifi and gps for location, you will 'move'

Tim Stone

Just common sense tbh

Arperum

@fredley It doesn't move at all when I'm at home :(

fredley

2:40 PM

> pokemoms

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum put it in a partially shielded lead box

fredley

@Arperum move somewhere more high rise

Arperum

I'll just deal with it.

Sterno

I'm trying to watch Supergirl again and still finding it very difficult.

Tim Stone

Sterno

I have a TV. That's not a problem.

@TimStone I've walked 10km on my buttocks today

Tim Stone

Your buns must be really toned now

2:43 PM

I should fix my bike(s)

Tim Stone

Netflix confused me by calling Happy Valley a Netflix Original when really they just knicked it from the BBC

fredley

@TimStone Is that any good?

Arperum

@fredley gives it a try for the last hour at work

Tim Stone

@fredley I thought it was, yeah

Unionhawk

Eh, netflix original, netflix exclusive

fredley

2:46 PM

I'm rewatching FMA:B atm cc: @Wipqozn

Arperum

Nope, doesn't move an inch at work either.

Sterno

@TimStone Yes. They do this with lots of things. They're jerks.

user15026

Okay this might be kinda fun. Wandered for 20 min just now and caught 7 Pokemon.

Tim Stone

I went to Walmart last night and there were like 10 Pokemon in the store at once, it was just silly

Wipqozn

@fredley I'm watching through some shows right now with a friend, and afterwards our plan is to do FMA:B, since one of us hasn't seen it yet. MANY TEARS WILL BE SHED.

Sterno

2:52 PM

I keep hearing that Wal-Mart is crazy popular for Pokemon

(mostly rats)

Wipqozn

cc @JasonBerkan ...oh...wait... :(:(:(

user15026

@Wipqozn oh man. That show has a million feels

fredley

@Ash Aaaaaaand you're hooked

Does Pokémon music play in anyone else's head while they're walking around or is it just me?
