One of our Field Reporters is donating plasma as we speak! In a plasma-only donation, the liquid portion of the donor's blood is separated from the cells. Blood is drawn from one arm and sent through a high-tech machine that collects the plasma. The donor's red blood cells and platelets are then returned to the donor along with some saline.

This type of donation takes longer (about half an hour up to 45 minutes after being hooked up), but is just as important as donating blood! Our Field Reporter will be able to use this time to relax, read or hear music.

Niantic has released Update 2.143.1 to the App Stores!

New in this version is a much appreciated Quality-of-live change: while managing your inventory, instead of keeping the (+) button held down to select all items, you can now use the (-) button when the counter is at 0 to instantly select all items of the selected type! This can be done in both the inventory view as well as the Capsule view.

Tap on the GIF above to see how it works in action if you can't see the entire Scanner screen!

In Budapest, the decisive Anomaly is about to begin, but first it was time for the GORUCK Urban Ops!
The physical challenges tested the power of Enlightened and Resistance champions, but in the end there can be only one winner.

The score of this Challenge was
ENL 4-1 RES
which gives the following points in the series
ENL 5.6 - 1.4 RES

Good job to everyone participating in GORUCK challenges! Seeing you live, giving all your energy for your Faction is amazing!

We are receiving reports that Ingress is currently experiencing server issues with Agents not being able to take any action or being able to log in. We will keep you updated.

Current status: 🟢 Server has recovered (Started 12:15 UTC, Updated as of 13:00 UTC)

@IUENG

Live footage from Budapest where the last Buried Memories XM Anomaly is (or should be) currently ongoing!

The battles have grinded to a halt until Niantic can fix the current issues. There are currently no updates from Niantic directly on the status of the servers and how these problems will affect the score.

Ph. @LiquidSnake19

@IUENG

It has sadly been over half an hour during an Anomaly and Agents are still reporting problems with the game. Niantic has just announced that they are aware of the current issues and are investigating.

@IUENG

While we have not heard anything official from Niantic yet it seems like the problems are fixed and Agents are once again being able to battle! Good luck, Agents!

@IUENG

Niantic has published the details of the score in Budapest!

🔵 Budapest was won by the Resistance with a score of ENL 86.1 - 113.9 RES.

As this event was the final battle in the Buried Memories series, the final score therefore stands at:

ENL 692.4 - 679.2 RES

🟢 That means that the Enlightened have won the Buried Memories Anomaly series! Congratulations, Agents!

We will post the detailed scores of Budapest in a bit!

🔵 The Resistance capture the Buried Memories Anomaly in Budapest, Hungary!

Niantic has acknowledged the server issues during the first two waves, however they believe that no faction gained an advantage during that time that would have swayed the result which is why the points of these two waves will stand after discussion with the Vanguards.

Quote from Niantic:

Note on Budapest: We are aware of the server issues that impacted the Scanner and Intel Map during Waves 1 and 2 of the Buried Memories: Budapest Anomaly. Our servers recovered by Wave 3, and neither Faction gained an advantage in Waves 1 or 2 that could have changed the outcome of the Anomaly Score or overall Anomaly Season. After discussing with Vanguards, we decided not to adjust or discount scores from Waves 1 and 2. We are still investigating the cause of the server issues, and we’re working to resolve them before the next Anomaly Site is activated.
