Global conflict under way - Ingress (invites available!)
Ingress
(this is the map at a very high level and local portals do not all show)
Google's Augmented reality game is still in beta and with a fresh set of updates and streamlining the submission process they have granted each player 5 additional invites to the beta. This is still just a game played on the android platform preferably phones with GPS connection. Tablets tethered to phones have been known to work also.
I have 5 invites available and am willing to part with them to 2old2play members or friends and family of 2old2play members. Just send me a PM with a google email address that will be playing.
Recent updates have brought on more attack methods and better defensive units. And the portal submission process for approval has been dropped from 4-6 weeks to around 9 days. So if your area is lacking in portals you can populate an area in no time.
If you are interested in what the game is or what your area looks like for the game, let me know. Or check out the Ingress reports on You tube, http://www.youtube.com/user/ingress
A little outdated, but here is a general idea of what the game is and how to play. This does not address the recent updates.
I play on the enlightened side and am loving the game. I am a level 6 agent and should be level 7 after this weekend. Been playing since January/february this year. If you have any question please feel free to contact me here or over on Google+ or on Google Hangouts.
Games like that always look interesting to me, but I don't play games on my phone much at all. Hopefully the 5 people here you give invites to enjoy it! Which is awesome of you to give.
No invite request from me, but it definitely looks like an interesting game.
Since playing this game I am getting out more and seeing new places, monuments, gardens, cultural centers, statues, interesting places around my area. It is amazing the things that I didnt know existed and all the interesting places in my back yard. Plys getting to know some of the other local players. this is a game really promotes community gaming. We are even planning community/park clean ups. amazing how conscious you get of your sorroundings when you start looking around.
Is this game US only?
Edit: I had an invite I forgot about a while back. I just got the game installed ect.
My Agent name is CProRacing the only issue I have is where I live. The nearest Portal is over 5 mile away. Is this normal?
Sometimes portals are spread out, but you can submit new portals and get some closer to you. The submission process/reviewers really like statues and memorials. Road side attractions and public facilities. Around me in NY we have a million 9-11 memorials and they are all approved with hardly a problem. WW/veteran memorials get accepted all the time. I have seen an influx of "welcome to 'name your city' portals go live as well. Dedication plaques aalso get approved all the time. So submit portals soon and often . o
Cheers fella!
When I got to work the other day I spent all lunch walking around the city as there was a lot of portals ect.
I have now added quite a few around the area I live so hopefully they will go live in a week or two.
Also I have a google plus Hangout group going for in-game codes. The codes once put in the Ingress app give you gear, experiance(AP) points and energy (XM). It is just a simple copy and paste to put them in scanner and if still valid are quite useful.
I get codes from various groups and sources. some of them get burned out pretty quick and others seem to last a long time.
So if you want to get in on the google+ hangout let me know.
