Conversely, I have been pretty disappointed by portal locations. Near me, there is one sports store, one tyre store, one butt-ugly highrise apartment bulding, a view from the top of that highrise, and a featureless sunset.
At the city center, on the other hand there are at least 5 portals based on pictures of the cathedral from different perspectives...
- shurane 14y agoIs that because of the city you live in? I'm not familiar with Ingress, but can't players also create portals?

To kickstart the game, they obviously just used pictures scraped off flickr or something - how else could they get a good coverage of the whole world (or at least the major cities), which requires at least tens of thousands of portals.
