vwlphb Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Hey everyone! I've been playing Ingress for the past few months, and it's great. It's put out by NiaticLabs, an internal startup at Google. Basically it's a location based augmented reality game, kind of like a giant global capture the flag between the Enlightened and the Resistance. You try to capture portals, create fields, and destroy portals of the other team.The best part of this game is that it is GPS based, so you actually have to go to the place. Already it has motivated me to take a more winding path or go out for an extra walk to get to that one portal the other team has claimed. I always find that game or achievement based motivations work better for me than just telling myself to go out for a walk. I wanted to see if anyone else on the site is playing. If it sounds cool to you, and you have an Android device (tough luck iphone users), I'm happy to send you an invite to join. I currently have eight available. And you should join the Enlightened, because we're awesome. Quote Link to comment

DELETED Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 this area doesnt seem to have many players. i like the game, but playing by myself kind of sucks. anyone else in a low-activity area?

Kan Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 This sounds great. I'll be in the resistance probably. I highly doubt there are players in my woods though XD. °~° Quote °¬° Link to comment

thiscolincampbell Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 "Blue Jersey" resistance here! My main problem is that when I go biking or running, I have to choose between running Ingress or Runkeeper, because trying to have both going crashes my phone. Maybe if I had TWO phones....... Hm.

saroufall Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 I've been playing for a little while. Doesn't seem to be that many players in my area yet. Resistance ftw!
