Waste of money

Brought the interceptor to play and can’t even get the game to start

Problems

Game looks cool, but sign in and sign up do not work. Fix please!

From great to why...

Hello I am a original backer for this game! Bought my inceptor and even bought a second one for a friend to play! They had a tactical world map that was just epic in every way! Then they took out the map and now is just a AR shooter only? You guys had the best idea for this game and then drop it entirely? I really don’t think you have any idea on how much the map made the game what it was :( ! Please I think you really need to bring the tactical map back up and fix the graphics for the first person shooter mode ? I’m really upset about what has happened to the game since you changed it from the original version and wish you could fix it to the way it used to be:(. This way we can play it like it was meant to be played:(

This is awesome

Cool

Supporter and Original backer

When I first started supporting this game it looked amazing, I couldn’t wait to try it an the trailers only increased my desire to play. When it went into bata there where a couple things that made it unique and stand out among the other games that claimed to be like it Pgo or even that game’s forbearer Ingress. First was the release of a top down map style game that you could interact with capturing territory, build defenses, and mine resources that could then be utilized by ones own faction. Second was the fact that once a faction’s “territory/base“ was being contested and if you where in the area you could then pull out your interceptor and defend against the opposing faction.

At least that’s the idea, from here on I don’t know what’s going to happen or if the Devs are even around anymore. Their Discord is still active but It just seems like they have forgotten their creation.

I give this game five stars in the hope that some day the Devs will pick up where they left off.

Original Backer

I was an original backer from when this was in its earliest of days. Like Day 1 backer. And I have been holding out hopes for this game for so long. And yes like alot of people I kept having to wait for delays in whatever was happening with the game or the device. I have my inceptor and I used to have the Dev version of this. I have seen it change alot and I know its still in need of work and not where the devs had seen it when they envisioned it. And the fact of having to use an external device to make more use of the game is awesome, and a draw back at the same time. Its a difficult situation, because I love the scope and forethought and design of the game ideas they had originally. The idea was essentially a massive open laser tag essentially. There was more to it then that but thats how I saw it. And I really want this game to do well and to get to where it should be. Especially considering how much money went into building this game. I do think the biggest issue is the Inceptor device. Its awesome and a great idea, but even Pokemon Go had issues getting the Poke Go Plus out to market AND to get people to use them. I also have given it 5 stars as an optimistic way to hopefully bring up the rating and bring more people in.

Sweet game!

I have waited for a few years for this, I can’t believe it is here and ready to roam!

The game isn’t finished yet but that was well known before shipping started.

Havnt had any issues connecting interceptors.

Have a lot of fun running around with my fiancé shooting it up!

Update feb 2019: still does not have the Tactical map so unless you have people to play with...good luck.

Before the game was released and could use the Tactical map it was great...once they took that away...it went down hill.

WHEN CAN WE GET TO PLAYING THE GAME!

Doesn’t work

The inception stuff will pair sometimes but will always unpair within 30 seconds....

We all went to separate corners of the house and tried multiple times just doesn’t stay paired.

I would not recommend this to anyone complete scam of a product will be sending this back

Cool concept but needs work

The game is a cool idea, but it needs to be updated a lot. It’s very buggy. I try playing with my friends and we couldn’t do anything to fix the “offline radar” problem. There are also problems with iPhone X compatibility as it cuts off in the notch. Please update this game if you can see this.
