Technical issues break the event Pokémon Go Fest in Chicago.

It's a little unhappy for fans to travel to Chicago's Grant Park to join and buy legendary pokémon, but the excitement has completely disappeared.

The game can not be played due to the technical failure factors that Pokemon gamers are completely elusive to capture everything as desired.

Chief marketing officer Mike Quigley told the crowd that Niantic decided to make a refund and $ 100 in the Pokécoins.This representative adds that it’s a small gesture, but we’re sorry.

However, Niantic will also be expanding the radius where the player must be inside to catch rare Pokémon to cover two miles outside the park in the next 24 hours.

Estimates from Niantic leading into the event pinned the crowd at around 15-20,000 attendees. Within minutes of the first attendees filing into Grant Park, the cell networks got shaky, then every network was down. Pokémon Go itself was having issues.

Some attendees look disgruntled, they chant "FIX YOUR GAME" or "WE CAN NOT PLAY!".

As a result, Niantic has announced that they will be reimbursed to attendees in addition to giving them $ 100 in in-game currency or Pokécoins. Currently, it is not clear if Niantic will automatically refund attendees or only those who request. Niantic says they will send an email with details to the attendees in a short time.

The situation seems to have improved a few hours ago, but perhaps things still have to wait ...
