Pokemon Go mania drives players into wild outdoors
According to Business Insider, Niantic’s CEO John Hanke and his team are already mapping out the future of Pokemon GO in order to ensure that the game receives a steady stream of content updates created to help the experience maintain its magic. Millions of people have already downloaded the game and are having fun with it, but some are having problems too.

It seems like trainers in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands will have to wait a while longer as “Pokemon GO” is still under maintenance and has confirmed halting its worldwide release.
Are you a Pokemon GO player living in one of these less populated areas? Likely through the use of new items or actions, Hanke suggests that players will be able to shape and add functionality of Pokestops and Gyms by working collaboratively together.
A team of about 60 people worked on “Pokemon Go”, he said.
Forming the base of Pokemon Go’s Pokestops and gyms is the data pool acquired through Ingress. The health of your enemy drops to one health point and any other attacks after that will not affect the enemy’s health.
Despite reports about players getting injured in their pursuit of monsters, Hanke says that safety is the top priority for the team and the goal is to have pedestrian-safe places as Pokestops and gyms.

And certainly, there are many more users who are thinking of switching from Windows Phone just because they’re being left behind every time a new major app is released, so without even wanting to, Niantic’s decision is actually hurting Microsoft’s mobile platform more than anyone has ever imagined. That number becomes even more impressive when you consider that Pokemon GO is on track to beat Twitter’s 3.5% daily usage rate and is now installed on 5% of all Android devices. We’ll have to wait and see. The first version of the game is buggy, but a few updates later, most of the issues will hopefully get resolved.
