Bug reports

I am reporting bugs that significantly impact gameplay. I have tried to attach video evidence to each of them for easy playback. ---Bug 1: Duel Session Not Restored After Page Refresh--- Description: Refreshing page in duel drops player to multiplayer->duels . Video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rflunYpSf1m73drJ4rU01b__wI8r24m9/view?usp=sharing (The video contains two parts. The 1st is about the update bug. The 2nd is about the bug with the weird zoom) ---Bug 2: Over-Zoomed Map After Guess Reveal--- Description: When displaying the correct location, the map is zoomed out too much, making it impossible to estimate distances. Video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rflunYpSf1m73drJ4rU01b__wI8r24m9/view?usp=sharing ---Bug 3: Outdated Team Rating Displayed on Search Page--- Description: The search function displays outdated team ratings. For example our team's current live rating: 1304, but search page shows: 1280 Video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n5jC_WxvpA4Vihebs298fvy9NsWM-D4k/view?usp=sharing ---Bug 4: Search UI Persists After Non-Ranked Duel Matchmaking--- Description: In non-ranked team duels, the matchmaking system has a visual/functional desync: the search UI remains visible ("Waiting for team red"), but the game actually starts in the background (opponent found, round begins). Video: (refreshing the page only on 1:50, too lazy to cut) https://drive.google.com/file/d/16Fl82NK9pTkKkUFcMzi2PiPP1J-D0dmj/view?usp=drive_link ---Bug 5: Road Visibility Bug: Major Roads Flicker In/Out During Zoom Levels--- Description: When zooming in/out on the map, certain mid-to-large roads inconsistently appear and disappear at different zoom levels. At zoom level X: Roads are missing (only minor paths visible). At zoom level X+1: Roads suddenly appear (correctly displayed). At zoom level X+2: Roads vanish again. Video: (look at the road Lun-Bayannuur) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KQ022No2ojAN0wpZ2GfS27ZhhNdlukD8/view?usp=sharing ---Bug 6: Overlapping Guess Pins During Answer Reveal – Avatars Clash and Obstruct View--- Description: During the answer reveal phase, player guess pins are frequently oriented in a way that causes avatar images to overlap. The current implementation appears to place pins without considering optimal orientation for visual clarity. It was probably intended that the sharp ends would be directed so that hat prevents avatar images from overlapping each other. see attached screenshot ---Bug 7: Map Zoom Bug In Ranked Duels--- This issue was originally reported over a month ago ( https://www.geoguessr.com/support/bug-reports/p/map-zoom-bug-in-ranked-duels ), yet there has been zero progress on its resolution. I'm including it here again because the complete lack of movement suggests it's being deprioritized or overlooked. For some reason I don't see this bug in myself now, but many of my friends still have it. Technical Specifications: Desktop Windows 10 Pro 22H2 19045.5854 Chrome 137.0.7151.41 1920x1080 Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 Browser extensions: nothing

White roads are very hard to see with the new map style. When using raster map some have a grey outline, but in vector all of them are almost the same colour as the background.

I'm unable to search a specific map with the new community map search engine. 'A Community Netherlands' Is a new map and should come up if i type the name fully right? But it doesn't, it shows other maps like: 'A Balanced Agusan Del Norte' or while sorting on popularity: 'A learnable Meta World - Basics'. Even when filtering is set to 'single country' it shows other maps that have nothing to do with 'A Community Netherlands'. I just wanted to let you know here that there might be some kind of problem with the search engine!

Ranked Duells are absolutely unplayable since the new UI was introduced. It literally has quartered the FPS. Everything is normal FPS, but as soon as an Enemy Player is found, you can see the FPS dropping into Oblivion. The Map-Footage is like 15 FPS at best and the map won't load properly so you don't know where you even place your pin. And you can change whatever settings you want; it doesn't matter. Changing to different browser? Nope. Changing Map type? Same thing. Clear Cache? Nah. And the specs of the pc don't matter. I doubt that an high-end gaming pc will struggle with google maps but at the same time play every game smoothly in 4K. I beg you on behalf of many, please atleast allow an option to switch to previous UI. It is very disgusting going into ranked queue just so your not affected enemy can destroy you, because you play with massive disadvantages. Almost impossible playing with these conditions.

When playing duels none of the guesses show up both while im clicking around and in the post-round "recap". The HP bars is not moving at the same time. First thing that indicates something is the end screen when i won/lost. Edit: The guesses are registering although not visible. I also have the issue of language being locked to local language, although that is a well known bug at this point i assume. Screen Recording of the bug: https://youtu.be/6gCfvmrG_bM

Since the last update, every couple of games one of my guesses doesn't seem to register. In the replay you can see me guessing. And you can see the dotted line to where the location in. It still says I didn't guess. It is getting pretty annoying as it is making me loose ranked games. Already tried all the troubleshooting options.

Hi, In Casual Team Duels, the “Play Again” button no longer appears after a match. This makes it unclear how to continue playing with the same partner. Currently, selecting “Main Menu” brings the team to a screen where they can choose to keep playing — which seems to replace the original function of the “Play Again” button. Is this an intentional change? If not, could you please bring back the “Play Again” button to make the flow clearer? Thanks!

being better than 1250 people while 5767 have played so far means that I am in the top 78.34% and not 21.66%

About once every 10~30 investigations, I run into a replay where the screen is blank. I can't skip the replay, so I have to pick some rating to get to the next reported incident.

EN: This triggers me all the time I play Battle Royale Countries in German. The the text that indicates how much players will be able to stay in the game is wrong in German. Instead of "[X] Leute spielen aber nur ein [X-1] wird siegen." e.g. "5 Leute spielen aber nur ein 4 wird siegen." which translates to "5 people play but only a 4 will win.", it has to be "[X] Leute spielen, aber nur [X-1] werden (/wird if value is 1) siegen." e.g. "5 Leute spielen, aber nur 4 werden siegen." or "2 Leute spielen, aber nur 1 wird siegen." Additionally a comma is missing. DE: Das triggert mich jedes Mal wenn ich Battle Royale Countries spiele. Der Text, der anzeigt, wie viele Spieler in der nächsten Runde noch im Spiel bleiben können ist auf Deutsch falsch. Statt "[X] Leute spielen aber nur ein [X-1] wird siegen." z. B. "5 Leute spielen aber nur ein 4 wird siegen." muss es heißen "[X] Leute spielen, aber nur [X-1] werden (/wird falls 1) siegen." z. B. "5 Leute spielen, aber nur 4 werden siegen." oder "2 Leute spielen, aber nur 1 wird siegen." Außerdem fehlt ein Komma. Vielen Dank für die Bemühungen! Thanks for your time!
