2talltim Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 I download it and got through the intro but there isn't much stuff around me since I live in the stix. Maybe next week on vacation I can mess with it some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anden Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Submit your own portals. Churches, landmarks, fire stations, and town signs are the easiest to get. Once you get rolling shit gets addicting. Excellent game for just being out and about on your bike. You should check the Ingress website map there are more portals than your phone shows by a long shot.Wife and I have turned our village into a nice little farm. Damn need to get out and play again now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxus Christ! Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Ok hacked my first portal while walking the dog. Cool game, will have to check it later when I do errands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anden Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Specifically not fire stations. That's in the rules. Nor schools.They have firehouses all over the game. Schools are definatly a no go we tried. But some stadiums and playgrounds make it. Historical markers make it in I know Ingress had changed quite a bit in the last year I just don't spend a lot of time playing any more.

Interesting, the rules specifically say they'll reject firehouses because they don't want people hanging around them and possibly be in the way.

magley64 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Interesting, the rules specifically say they'll reject firehouses because they don't want people hanging around them and possibly be in the way.Fire departments were among the first portals Google auto loaded when this game was in beta. They've probably thought better of it since the game is building in popularity. Edited November 7, 2014 by magley64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxus Christ! Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 How do I submit a portal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Ok figured out how to submit and I looked at the map on the web site. There are a lot of portals near me that are on the map but don't show up on my scanner...what to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh1234 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) I'm usually up for a new game, what's this!? edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingress_(game) Edited November 7, 2014 by Josh1234 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banditj13 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 I play... we have a few of us here at work that play on the resistance team... Ok figured out how to submit and I looked at the map on the web site. There are a lot of portals near me that are on the map but don't show up on my scanner...what to do?The scanner map is limited in range, where as the intel map allows a broader range search... could be that the "close to you" is outside the range of the scanner map.

Gixxus Christ! Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 No I mean I looked up a portal that was on the Intel map, then drove there and it wasn't on the scanner. I was on top of it and it didn't show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slingingchic Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 No I mean I looked up a portal that was on the Intel map, then drove there and it wasn't on the scanner. I was on top of it and it didn't show up.Did the arrows come up showing where the portals are? Maybe the app needs updated? I haven't played since getting iPhone. Looks like I will have to install and start dominating Sidney...90210 again. I've been sitting at level 8, time to level that shit up. You'll be able to link down to here eventually. This game involves road trips too... We've met some cool people along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxus Christ! Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 Signal is fine, forced sync. Still nothing. I did however submit the black people church around the corner from my house and got my dog in the frame...so now he's famous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxus Christ! Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Tim there's a guide for rural players online...I skimmed it and it really sounded good, you just gotta go around and submit portals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
