Pokemon GO - On a Motorcycle!

Love the game so far. Never even thought about using it while riding, it wouldn't even yield fun results. I tried playing in a car (someone else driving) and it just wasn't enjoyable.

I did however repurpose a handlebar reflector on my bicycle into a iphone mount by putting the bracket through the back of a silicone case. Much better riding a bicycle around the neighborhood.

This game will likely put me in shape :lmao:

Most people are killing themselves or getting hurt the same way they would in a car, but playing a game instead of texting.

At least this game is getting kids out of the house rather than sitting at home on their iPads all day - which brings up a whole other issue with pedophiles (Note my previous post and add on to this as well).

That being said, time spent on GTAM is time wasted as well isn't it?

No, because there is useful information posted here sometimes.
There are group rides to attend.
And you are not walking/riding/driving around the city distracted putting yourself and others in danger as you look for a character in your video game.

My subtle implication was that some will argue that motorcycles themselves are for people with way too much time and money

Depends on what you pay for the bike and ins. and where you work...i.e. free parking downtown.

I strongly advise against driving/riding and playing pokemon GO. I drive/ride with waze all the time, and even that has gotten me into some close-calls where i'm looking at the screen and all of the sudden traffic stops in front of me, and i brakd super late.

Pokemon GO while driving/riding, is an accident waiting to happen. I don't think that talking on your phone while looking at the road is a big problem; you don't need two hands on the wheel; but texting/browsing/playing games on your phone is a huge problem.

The number of times I've come to an abrupt stop, and reversed on road just to catch a pokemon; this was at around 2AM as well, but I just realized it wasn't worth it.

Instead I got a tweaked/sideloaded version of pokemon GO on iOS, which allows me to sit on my a.ss and tap and go in whatever direction I want. Within two hours, while sitting in bed i caught over 60 different pokemon including a starter; visited +100 pokestops and leveled up from 4 to 10

I never understood the allure of cheating at games to accomplish things like this. Does it make you more impressive to other players or something?

Last game I saw someone cheat at the guy got banned when the developer caught onto the cheat. The guy about lost his mind since he'd apparently cheated himself into some elite something or other...which to me seems like a joke considering he didn't "earn" anything, he cheated his way there.

Can't say I know diddly squat about Pokemon Go except for the fact that apparently the funeral home around the corner from our house is a Gym and there's always a gaggle of kids sitting in the grass every night now.

On an unrelated note, loading what is very clearly an unofficial hacked or code modified version of an app onto your phone is just asking for your phone being hacked by someone in China/Bangladesh/Russia/etc. If you suddenly find your Facebook account has been hijacked, your email locked out, and your bank account empty a week from now, well, you'd know where to look for the cause.
 
Pokemon?

Jailbreak?

Sideload?

There's a lot of people cheating or spending real money on this game. I live near a park and there's a gymn by my house. They have rare pokemon close to 2000CPs. Not sure how they did it. It's one thing to catch one rare pokemon, but in order to level it up you need to catch a lot of it. They are probably farming these pokemon using the gps hack... I highly doubt these people spend times outdoor and physically going to these places. The game is neat and I'm casually playing it because I grew up watching pokemon. But the reality is you're never going to keep up with the cheaters, or the power gamers who dump real money into it. It's still fun catching pokemon here and there when you're going for a walk, or just sitting in the office with the game running.

After the official release of the game, the distracted driving I've witnessed is unreal.

People driving 80-90km/h while searching/catching pokemon + pokestops....
It's a good time to stay away from Markham...

That being said, I have almost lost interest in the game already. Can barely keep myself playing for more than 15 mins a day... Don't know how people go for hours on this game..

I hope you did sell when I told you :) Nintendo stock is FREE FALLING!
 
Why would the success or failure of this app have a significant influence on Nintendo's stock? This is peanuts for them, financially

If you owned the stock before it surged almost 80%, simply due to the Pokémon craze, now it is falling fast. Would have been good to sell a few days ago
