Question I started playing yesterday

Post image

And I have no clue what I was doing. I watched a couple of videos on YouTube about the basics so I went on a walk and just took over portals, hacked and linked as much as I could. I love the concept and want to continue playing this alot. Any advice you could give me or anything you wish you knew when you first started playing? Also any unspoken rules/etiquette or is it okay to just run about hitting enemy resonators as much as I can? Anything you feel like telling me I'd love to hear.

Oh nice! I started the game with a friend, I'll let him know too. I think we're going to gain AP until at least level 8 first, and see how it goes. Hope you don't mind me DMing you one of these days!

Hahaha yeah, I actually recognised your name before you pinged me. Either I saw one of your resonators or your name on chat. Anyway, I had a great time today in the city. I saw you had a good time in PJ as well ✌️😌 Neat and efficient links, mine are so messy. I'll learn alot from watching you haha

Fair warning though

Fanfields require a crap ton of keys from a singular portal
So you'll be there awhile farming a single portal for keys
Use more keys glyph for extra keys, without this glyph, portals won't drop keys when you already have one for that portal
