"Two minute grace period for sightings/despawn time gone"


#PokemonGO: Hi all,​Perhaps a month or so ago, Niantic made a quiet change which didn't seem to make a whole lot of waves, but one that very very much frustrated me today :/ Namely, earlier you used to get two minutes extra in between a pokemon disappearing from your nearby compared to when it actually despawns; now it just goes away immediately. This means that it can disappear right in front of you without warning.. while this was possible earlier too, such as if the pokemon never shows up on a nearby, it was much less likely.I had a Gible disappear today just as I was about to click on it, and I very very much would have liked to have known that I had less than two minutes left. It would have been my first wild Gible.​Niantic in general has taken away almost every aspect of "hunting" in the game, changing into "wander aimlessly and pray". The two-minute warning was one of the few in-game instances in which you knew you had to hurry, could actually plan a little, etc (however much you can plan in two whole minutes anyway 😂).. and now even that is gone :/Does anyone actually like this change? via /r/TheSilphRoad http://bit.ly/2F7V33H
