Just like the regular games then.Well the gameplay has no depth at all. There is nothing that would keep me playing. The Pokegym fights suck. Pokemon catching dosnt involve fights... So... Whats the point in playing this?
So it's a mobile game. Got it.
Along with pachter, called it!!
Sorry but Pokemon or not it's too hot outside.

Good luck with thatSure Hope Nintendo isn't trying to aggressively target them with the NX
No one cares. They just want to drive by with how they called it months ago and Niantic's terrible/Nintendo is doomed/mobile gamers have no attention span/the game was a bad fad/etc..The title makes it sound a lot worse than it is. Look at the graph.
When the remaining 30 million users drop off in 2 months, he will be right.
School starting? Not in Europe, buddy. The drop off is actually in line with school finishing in most of Europe.School started plus the changes to the game driving off some players.
This is literally the graph for every game ever.
Summer break ended and most of the players went back to school as well. fully expect this to be a game that does the most traffic during summer.
Wouldn't they play even more considering they can hang out with their friends at school during breaks as well as after school? That's what happens here at least.
If 30 million active users is dead. Then 99% of all mobile games are dead.

I still play but it has stagnated, there's only so much you can do in the current game, especially when the last couple dozen Pokemon I need are also the more rare ones. The features that are already supposed to be in the game need fixing, and people are waiting for new features to be added. Also it would be great if after a certain level Rattata and Pidgey didn't show up as much, it gets old when a majority of the time that's all that's on screen.
Niantic fucked it up
1. You would still go on to see if there were any good Pokemon spawned around during your breaks.It would really depend on if the schools have Pokestops. The primary schools and highschools near me only have one each, and they're usually far from the areas kids would spend break time.
That said, more updates need to add that other 90% of content they want if they want to plateau their user base above 30 million.
]3. As I posted above school is out for a fair few weeks yet in Europe. They break for summer mid-late July until September in most parts, the USA isn't the world.
Since its launch in early July, Pokemon Go has been downloaded an astounding 134 million times across the world. The augmented reality phenomenon hit No. 1 in app stores across the world as soon as it was released and has caused all kinds of chaos in the physical, digital and financial spheres.
According to Eliran Sapir, CEO of Boston-based market intelligence firm Apptopia, Pokemon Go now has 28 million daily active users, a 20.8% overall retention rate for its entire user base. And that number is tracking down. Pokemon Gos retention base for 30-day users is about 15%. That scale will top very soon, Sapir said in a chat conversation with ARC.
For context, a retention rate of 20% is considered excellent in the apps economy. Pokemon Go may actually be underperforming industry averages in app retention. According to data from Boston-based firm Localytics, high performing games (which have the lowest retention rates in the apps economy) retain 31% of users in the first month, 18% after two months and 11% after three months.
Pokemon Gos retention rates right now are buoyed by users from counties where it has landed more recently. For Pokemon Go it will probably never actually maintain that [rate of engagement] as its downloads are starting to drop and [the international users are] the only thing been keeping it up, Sapir said.
Just like the regular games then.
This is also interesting

I'm sorry, this couldn't be further from th truth. The main games are packed with content and the battle system has loads of depth.
But removing tracking isn't a big deal according to those NeoGAF posters.
Lol okay. They took out the only thing that made the game fun and people stopped playing because ?????At this point, it really isn't. There's no hard, direct correlation between the drop of daily users and the removal of the old tracking feature, only heresy (and the deletion of a whole lot of bots).
