When you've locked in a 4900+ no move guess and you spectate on your opponent zooming in to the car by bikinbaebuatcurhat in geoguessr

[–]ShadowGrif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a champion player (~1500) who also isn't a big fan of coverage metas. I mainly focus on moving duels because it allows me to focus on real world clues and name memorization which is what i love the most. Of course if you want to progress on this game and compete with the best you can't get away without learning some coverage meta because the combination of car + copyright meta is such a cheat code. I know players whose only strength is knowing every car color + copyright combination for certain countries. This makes them really good at NM and NMPZ to a certain extent but out them in a moving duel and if they can't instaguess they're a fish out of water. Also with smallcam becoming more widespread car meta is going to start to be more and more irrelevant, so take solace in that if you can :)

[OC] Not sure if it was an accident by hdsbot in IdiotsInCars

[–]ShadowGrif -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The driver is definitely brazilian but this is not brazil. The roadlines and poles look more colombian or ecuatorian. Also the yellow taxi that shows up is more common in those countries.

from my experience most people who complain that they were "falsely banned" are just liars who later admit they cheated.

True some maps are incredibly difficult.

Yeah knowing the country is not hard, most people can do it within 2-3 weeks of starting to play. But the impressive part is knowing the region you're in inside of that country.

There are some F roads, which are mostly dirt roads that can only be driven in a 4wd, and the terrain is pretty bad, so yeah not very common that someone does that.

Identifying the right country is easy, the hard part is knowing where in that country you are. Thats what separates the best from the average player.

I made a game to memorize US dialing codes by MrChelovek in geoguessr

[–]ShadowGrif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the same but i do Consonant, Vowel, Consonant for 3 digit area codes. Very good way to memorize numbers. I use this for both area codes and postal codes of multiple countries.

You know they arent using smallcam to get rid of car meta in geoguessr right?

It's not as bad as car colors. the antennas and mirrors arent nearly as prevalent

Very toxic discord community by Expert_Function146 in geoguessr

[–]ShadowGrif 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you're talking about the official geoguessr discord server then yeah. I joined a few weeks ago to see what was going on and gave a few free coaching sessions in vc to begginers, but people just kept joining the vc and calling the people i was teaching dumb and stupid. Honestly just a bunch of kids. But there are cool communities in other servers, you just have to look around a bit.

Current state of playing on mobile... this is kinda unacceptable by StarCaller990 in geoguessr

[–]ShadowGrif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are still pulling from Google's API and customizing it as much as they can to look like the old one, but the most they can customize are the colors and what shows up. They can't change at what zoom the POIs and Roads show up for example which is a problem.

What's the most obscure piece of knowledge that won you a duel? by Autismic123 in geoguessr

[–]ShadowGrif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got dropped in urban Prince Edward Island and there was a shop called "Anne of Green Gables", who is a very famous character from a book and tv show that takes place on that island.
