  • In today's video, I'm going to be playing Geoguessr battle royale for the first time in over a year, and attempting to win games without moving, panning, or zooming. This is no mean feat to achieve, especially when your game is lagging horribly. Enjoy!

      ​@@zi8gzagI would also add that a quick learning of public transport logos, such as the Wiener Linien or the Austrian S Bahn, would help!
      I'm a public transport enthusiast and on some videos I'vr seen, that would definitely give me an edge on country or even region guessing. I'd be glad to help with that if documentation is needed

    I find the new 3D avatar waiting room adds lag on older computers that carries over into the game itself. When I'm in the transparent part of the countdown where we see the next location in the background, I see people locking guesses for countries while I'm still 8 or 9 seconds away from being able to click on anything.
    I know people will just say, "get a new computer". The point is, the computer I'm using (a 2012 Macbook Pro) didn't have any issues with Battle Royale until they introduced the new avatar waiting rooms two or three weeks ago. Turning off animations reduces the lag a little but it's definitely still lagging compared to before.

    I enjoy and get a lot of education from your videos, I just want to express my feelings towards this one.
    "Smurfing" (when you play at a level far below your standard) are in most modern games considered annoying/unenjoyable/irritating for those that encounter smurfers..it's even bannable in some of the bigger games like dota2, as an example. I'm just trying to say that it ruins the experience for those that are at that level, since they probably dont have a chance to win the game.
    The video was really good though =) Keep up the good work!

    That teal van in the Denmark guess is a postal van for the company Post Nord (as is also readable if you strained your eyes), which is quite recognizable. I do think they might operate in other Nordics, though.

  • @frederikvater
    @frederikvater ปีที่แล้ว

    17:15 Pavement is very distinct to Denmark. Also, you´re excused since you aren´t Scandinavian, but the blue lorry saying "PostNord" (PostNorth) is some postal service here in the Nordic countries. Tough to see the letters here in the nmpz round though. :)
