Mission Days Update – Niantic Has Listened to Agents

We heard a lot of discussion about the change in Mission Days in a previous post, where Niantic announced they were going to lose the scanner for the events in lieu of a paper map.  The conjecture was that it was a limitation in the scanner or other means to catch spoofers.  Overwhelmingly, Agents came […]

How to NOT Get Banned

Niantic released a statement today reminding Agents that buying in-game items is a big NO NO.  Matter of fact, it can get you banned. For – eveeer.  So don’t do it. Not only that but just remember that every time you buy something from a 3rd party dealer, you are encouraging them to spam channels […]

Prime Scanner at Epiphany Night

Some agents are getting notifications about the Ingress Prime Scanner possibly making an appearance at Epiphany Night.  How the notification is worded, “Under the watchful eye of the NIA”, seems to suggest that this will be another demo type viewing such as they’ve done in the past.  We can assume that there will be plenty […]

OPR Fights back!

Just saw an email that is being passed around.  Thanks to Agent @gnaggi who submitted this in our Telegram channel today.   But it appears that bad submissions to the OPR are being met with emails warning the offenders of possible bans if they continue to try and add crappy portal candidates to the network.  It is […]

TS-MORPHEUS Media Drop

Do you know what it is? I thought it was a player made thing with how it was being portrayed around the net.  UNTIL, at the Kagoshima, Japan Mission day, Morpheus Media started being hacked.  Multiple media are now dropping in multiple cities.  What do they mean?  Do you know the way? Currently, we are […]

Ingress, Building AR Maps for Niantic

A slew of articles came out this week after Reuters interviewed John Hanke where he discusses Niantic’s use of their games to start mapping spaces for the virtual world.  These AR maps would start in areas like parks and plazas, which I assume could be due to the fact that cars mapping the roads can’t get […]

NL-1331e Swag Pack & Addons

I love this crap. Biocards, pins, stickers. I think it’s the marketer in me, or maybe just the hoarder. I can’t wait for NL-1331 to start making it’s way around the US again so I can partake and meet some more agents. If you are in Europe, keep an eye out for the NL-1331 schedule […]

Niantic wants to know what agents think about Ingress

Recently Niantic sent out a survey to some agents with 12 or so pages of questions.  From various topics of what you want to see in Prime.  What is important to you.  Possible new xfac events coming in the future.  Will you be playing in 5 years and what would get you playing more.  That’s just […]
