Pokemon GO! Official Thread - now officially released in the UK!

The Albert is a gym?!

I've used 25mb data over the course of 2 days going outside omw shopping and back etc. It barely uses data ... though do note it uses gps/camera etc ....
just make sure u have full battery b4 heading out.

It's already out in the US and Aus/NZ but the UK release date has been delayed because of server issues. Should be hitting the UK in the next few days or so

Feels so awkward trying to catch Pokemon in the middle of a busy town centre

Because you are not used to do that in the pokemon games, as it was not possible catching pokemons in cities?

It's not that. It's the fact you have to lift up your phone to towards the Pokemon, to others it looks like you're taking a picture. Sometimes the Pokemon is sat there next to a group of people, or in my case some kids, I couldn't really point my camera towards them without looking dodgy

If you turn off AR (camera) you don't need to do that.

You can turn AR off for the city, that's what I do

OMG THANK YOU!!

Time for another "lunch break" I think

I theorise that the max is always the same for the same pokemon.

Worth?

That is an argument. This is another aspect of this game which may improved.

After reading some posted comments, I am still not convinced that Pokemon GO! should be better than the edition games.*

The closest Pokestop to my house is a children's play park. The second closest..... is a children's play park

I've been playing in quite a localised area the last couple of days, between my house and work, which contains 5 gyms, and a similar amount of Pokestops. I've got a day off work tomorrow so I might walk into the town centre and see what the situation's like there.
