New Pokemon GO routes force players cross the border
Pokemon Go fans have been a chance to explore an unusual route, which requires the presence of a passport to cross the national border and ignoring warning signs. The news about the path that will pass through the customs control point on the border of Canada and the USA caused violent discussions among users.
Pokemon Go developers presented routes mechanics, which allows players to receive additional awards, following a certain path. However, the process of adding was criticized due to the appearance of controversial options, including impossible for passing. Many players expressed dissatisfaction with how such paths in general could be approved, while many other, more convenient, proposed by users, remained unreleased.
As an example, Pokemon GO played one of the complex routes on Reddit, which was called WelCome To US (Welcome to the United States), and to complete it, it is required to go through US customs control on the border of Canada and the USA.
The situation itself raised many questions about how the procedure for approving routes is generally taking place and how adequately it works. Here’s what the players say:
We have only one route in the city where I live and it is literally impossible to use – there is no place for walking along the route, this is the road that passes through the government institution. Then the path passes through the zone where the signs are worth "The entrance is prohibited". I can’t imagine how someone was able to go through this route to create it, or how it was generally approved.
A few days ago a route appeared, which is only a two -minute walk from me. GPS coating in this area is excellent. However, he requires jumping through fences, as in the film "Like cool cops" or on military exercises. It is unlikely that some people in this area may try to do this. Who considers it? Who reviews them, by the way?
