A turf in North Korea????
Forums › General Discussion › A turf in North Korea????-
Check it out I though it wasn't possible sombody actually has capo of Pyongyang!
-
Kim Jong II? I bet he won't let any other players in…
-
I thought you couldn't see it on google maps? Must have randomly placed???
-
That's what I thought I just scanning the country and wondered why only the capital was on the map I zoomed and and bam there's a turf and an official capo of the capital of North Korea
-
Yea I saw that a while ago too
-
The turf was made a month ago.
-
It's odd, cuz even if you're physically in a remote place for real, you can't place turfs away from roads... And there are no roads in NK on google maps, so something's fishy in North Korea...
-
What's his name?
-
Lazarix...

Perhaps I was too subtle: placing legit turfs in North Korea is impossible. There is no google maps coverage of the country, therefore no roads: therefore, no turfs possible. It's like placing a turf in the middle of the ocean. If this is not spoofing, then it is some other form of hack. Either way, it is illegal.

I just tried to lay turf there and it says it's a valid location but to far from my location do I don't think it's a spoof!

Lazarax was actually there. He works for Reuters
-
NICK PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS!!! how is it possible there's no roads mapped there. Does the City maker count as a road?
-
It's still a general area. Google maps program was not expanded to north Korea due to communism and strict border laws so the roads aren't shown. Not anything nick can do about that since the game utilizes google maps

Didn't somebody once do a giant turf art smiley face in north Korea to mock johnny o? I thought I hear something about this.

Tweek is stationed in Korea. He'd know about dropping turf. I could've sworn he did the same thing. Not positive though.
-
North Korea has roads it's just not public information where they are located so u can hop if ur lucky to find a road lol I tapped all around and everything is valid lol

He could have been on a stopover either on his way to or from China. When you actually (rather than virtually) fly, you can lay turf in as many coutries as you have stopovers.YOU wrote:

This is old news he works for Reuters and was in Pyongyang

"Google Places" is where the info comes from, I think pyongyang, north Korea is a valid "google place". It's not really if there is a road or not but if there is something like a address or a town in the google places database near the lat/lgn of where you taped the map

Got this message "valid location Pyongyang but too far from you or your current location"

Good evening people. Just to clarify the whole situation (like I've mentioned to many people who pm me in-game), I work for Reuters and I placed the turf when I was physically there on secondment. We have use of Both a GPS satellite and Internet through satellite which allowed me to place the turf. Yes as you said, there are no roads visible from the map but once you're physically in the location, it allowed me to place it (after a few attempts of trying I will admit).
I hope that clears up any confusion.
By the way, I don't appreciate some of the verbal abuse sent to me in-game by private message. It's not very constructive. -
Thanks for the clarification.
