The woes of not living in the city…

Noticed that there were two level four raids at the parks in my neighborhood. Drove out to both of them and didn't see a single soul there to help me take them down!

I guess I could have burned my raid pass to see if they were spoofers there, but that's just not sound logic. There should be an easier way to see if other people are in the lobby with you before using your one pass.

Wholeheartedly agree with being able to see if others are there to queue or if they already finished the raid. Using a feature to count on spoofers is counter productive to our end game

I agree. You should get to see the raid lobby prior to using your pass.

Rural players and non major cites isn't on niantic to do list , simple as that
That is your issue and many other players

Similar situation for me one week ago. Since then I have started a facebook raid group for our town, aggressively posted about it in national PoGo groups, told everybody with a phone catching pokemon about it, advertised every level 3 and 4 raid in the town over the last few days and the result has been no less than THREE succesful level 4 raids within the last 24 hours. A few days ago I thought even one succesful level 4 raid was impossible in my town. Turns out that people don't really show up unless they know that others are showing up, so empty level 4 raids becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy until somebody does something about it.

FYI it's my understanding with the update you can spend the raid pass to enter the lobby but will get it back if you leave before the timer expires. Needs to be fact checked though
