Title: PokÃ©mon GO
Post by: TiMoN on July 13, 2016, 12:10:59 am: Yes this topic was inevitable.

For those living under a rock, PokÃ©mon GO is a location-based augmented reality mobile game developed by Niantic. The game allows players to capture, battle, and train virtual PokÃ©mon who appear throughout the real world. It makes use of GPS and the camera of compatible devices. Although the game is free-to-play, it supports in-app purchases of additional gameplay items. An optional companion Bluetooth wearable device, the PokÃ©mon Go Plus, is planned for future release and will alert users when a PokÃ©mon is nearby.

Currently it's only available in the US, UK and Australia on both iOS and Android but you can download the Android APK from any site online(Android only, sry iShit) so you can play it anywhere before it officially releases in your country. It's 2 AM but a walk around the neighborhood got me a Bulbasaur and a Cubone. Has anyone tried it yet?

Not necessarily only Android, apple users can also get the game.

Title: Re: PokÃ©mon GO
Post by: Julio. on July 13, 2016, 03:07:39 pm: Not officially out in the UK but most the gyms round by me are populated Level 3 or 4+ at the mo :lol:

Charizard was always my favourite, just because he was so stubborn!

Try it, I thought the same as you but it's kind of addictive once you get going.

Post by: jovanca on July 13, 2016, 03:26:41 pm: Ill take ur pikachu and ill make it my raichu julio. Srsly tho, whole point of the game is to go around looking for pokemons xD?
Title: Re: PokÃ©mon GO
Post by: Julio. on July 13, 2016, 03:31:38 pm: Yeah aha, you evolve them, power them up, catch them... and you can claim gyms etc.

That being said, as a game it's not as feature rich as normal pokemon games, just very addictive, simplistic, and absolutely brilliant :lol:
Title: Re: PokÃ©mon GO
Post by: jovanca on July 13, 2016, 03:32:10 pm: Back in time we didnt need a 'smartphone' to hunt pokemons. Used to run around for 8 hours imagining pokemons and shit, back when i was like 10. And look at the kids now..
Title: Re: PokÃ©mon GO
Post by: Toreto on July 13, 2016, 03:49:22 pm: I got ishit xD and i could download the game on it after switching to new zeland :d
However switching to US didnt work with me showing connection errors.
Title: Re: PokÃ©mon GO
Post by: Cofiliano on July 13, 2016, 04:15:14 pm: Another proof of Argonath being way ahead, we have pokemons running around SAMP since 2010-11.

Post by: Julio. on July 13, 2016, 04:27:34 pm: Might not be released in your country, you have to download the APK.

On iOS, I live in the UK so had to make a US region account lol

10/10 would play again.

Post by: Julio. on July 14, 2016, 05:23:48 pm: Kinda irritating sometimes, game freezes as you're catching Pokemon, or suddenly decides to stop syncing, or freezes mid-gym battle. Apparently it's due to the servers being overloaded...

That being said, it's good when you can get it to work properly, and uh, not wanting to brag or anything, but... I've got a gym all of my own :cowboy: (for the next 10 minutes, there was only a 300CP Pokemon on it) :lol:

Being as a couple of requirements of the game are a GPS and phone signal, these kids really didn't think it through...
