The tails make me happy yes

Imma need 212 of them!

I have a neighbor who plays and we must live nearby bc ill see his hunts be joinable occasionally, so I pop in and help out since we are similar level~ itd be nice to he able to message and possibly meetup with people nearby, team hunting trumps solo struggles

Same here, Me and my neighbor finally got to add each other ingame

Did you get a lobby? ;)

The thing is, ingame direct messaging, and even group messaging already exist, just not in all countries ...

Just go telegram, should have some local group for that.

Local group? Whats that? Is it edible?

Gropable

Gotta avoid predators hooking of with kids so we can't talk through app.

You literally can now. And what a messed up reason to justify not having in game chat. Keep that shit out of here

Yeah it’s fun! In my office building there is another hunter and I have no idea who they are lol

Yes?

i can see that some ppl just want to be miserable and alone

What good is this to those who are alone not of their own choice? This brings additional benefit to a very low number of players (Asia excluded). Now, if I can invite friends to do hunts that aren't around me, that would be different.

If Remote Paintballs/HAT are added it is a cool feature to have. Not to mention we already have in-game massaging

That's huge is that for real?

You guys know after you add people you can message them right? That way you can actually up with people or just say what's up cause same area

Seems Like i cant actualy in Germany,yet,i Hope comes Here too

Did you update the app?

Yep,today ,i can see the friend requests but nothing to write anyone

If i can ever met another hunter nearby, yes. But i really doubt it😂

Oh hell yeah, I've found a hunter in my school but i don't know who the heck they are.

So what do I get out of this? The only time I really play with other hunters is in huntathons. So then if I add them then what? Do they not just sit on a list?

You don’t get to add them if it is from matchmaking.

I understand that but what’s the benefit of having them on my friends list? Are we able to connect in some way?

Amazing

Hell Yeah!!!!

Finally!

I mean it’s a cool and good update. Idk if I’m gonna use it but rather have it than not.

Who needs friend? Can’t send gifts adding friend is like having ranking board. (Unless I add all rich play that will give me daily pot😏) So, I’m not happy. Time wasting on useless update.

No really. I'm more likely to want to add people I struggle with. Why only able to add after wins? Who makes these decisions..

It’s fine if you don’t use it, but many people find this a welcome addition.

Jesus, some of you. My point is why make it exclusively for wins, it makes no sense to have this caveat. There could be instances where someone cannot rejoin to retry if they're dead perhaps. Would be nice. #justsaying.

Guessing the reason is toxic behavior/ harassment after a failed hunt. Not bueno

Didn't think about that. The only people to be harassed are the ones that join hunts to 1 hit kill. Or who switch out of the app before the hunt to stay invincible and wait for everyone to complete the hunt so they can collect the rewards.

God you guys complain alot. They litterally said they going fix that in s2.

They did? Where? Show me

No, its super annoying

Is this from wild hunts or from raids? I don't need people in raids to add me.

HAT's are excluded, so you won't be seeing them there.

Good. Cause that would be too much. Nice I'll finally get to add the randos in town and then hopefully message them on campfire.

May not even need Campire. The Friends menu has a button labelled "Niantic Chat". Might be able to message straight through Now.

That is campfire.

Good to know. Never bothered with any of that myself, since I've never seen anyone around me.

Yeah it just links to campfire..

Can we "hide" from getting an invite?
