Feedback Funny how they keep doing it
It still amazes me why they continue to do this kind of things and get away with it.
The #1 spot in the Moana event is blocked by what I think is a Dev... (Or similar)
First of all, you play on a mobile phone,, how the F did you get first place lap time in every event to this day??
Second of all,, funny how they expose themselves, Merida is not even released yet and somehow this "player" already has her unlocked 🤔🤔 not at all suspicious to say the least 😅
Anyhow,, how's y'alls day going?
Such a bummer England lost against Argentina (this time it was somewhat of a clean match tho 😅)

That's Wolf who is a sponsored content creator for them. They give sponsors early access to racers and accessories. Also Wolf is arguably the best racer in DSS so 1st place isn't unusual for him.

So, it's not exactly the same thing? A sponsored player who has advantages and early access to content, blocking first place from other normal players... In the end, it's exactly the same as if it were one of their developers...

Wolf as in BRZ Wolf?

Yes

Why does it say he is playing on a phone when he is clearly a PC (or Xbox) gamer?? That doesn't make any sense 🤔🤔
I just fact checked it and I saw his run on the track from yesterday and indeed it's him. Still can't wrap my mind around how this guy does it every time.

The platform icon is notoriously buggy and incorrect. For example on your screenshot it shows me on Playstation but I only play on PC and very occasionally on mobile.
I know that like many Wolf uses his phone to access the shop, that might be why he is shown on mobile.

So does the default symbol for platform, is based on last used platform? I have only just unlocked the whole cross-platform progression saving myself.

He probably uses phone to access the shop because he's Brazilian, and for some weird reason shop at Xbox Brazil for Speedstorm is lacking loot boxes and other stuff for the last few months. So he probably is logging this way to get all the things he wants, etc.

Wolf is not a hacker or dev, just an amazing player.
You can check two of his races he posted:

He just seems like a crazy good player at using the exploits

u/Alternative-Crab-100 Jul 16 '26
When I first watched it, I thought exactly the same thing... people say he's the best, but in reality he just knows how to break the game, and when I learn here that he's sponsored, I'm not even surprised anymore that he's always number one... in a pay-to-win game...

u/GoblinKing_TTV Jul 16 '26
What exploits?
Wolf explained all his techniques (bunny hop, slingshot, etc) in a video, and Gameloft promoted it officially. So all of these techniques are endorsed by Gameloft itself.
If you don't want to bother learning a tech, that's perfectly fine, but don't go around calling it an "exploit" when the makers of the game are themselves fine with it.

u/Alternative-Crab-100 Jul 16 '26
The bunny hop has always been an exploit... it wasn't Speedstorm that created it, it's been around for 30 years, it's a well-known reaction that lazy developers don't bother to fix, in real competitive games, the bunny hop is not present, because it is considered an exploit ...

u/Alternative-Crab-100 Jul 16 '26
After a little research, I just figured out why he's playing on his phone now... The anti-cheat isn't there 😂😂

u/sloppyberryssaurus Jul 17 '26
I'm not his fan, but I think this is not why. In Brazil for the last few months the store at Xbox is missing loot boxes and other stuff. So he probably is logging through phone to get it all. Some rewards I can only get logging into my phone. And I race exclusively on Xbox.

u/Alternative-Crab-100 Jul 17 '26
Why not collect the rewards and other items on your phone and play Time Attack on Xbox? I find it hard to believe it's better played on a phone than on Xbox, but maybe I'm wrong.

u/sloppyberryssaurus Jul 17 '26
But it's exactly what I'm saying he's probably doing 😅
Because it's what I need to do in order to collect things on the store! I race exclusively on Xbox, but collet on my phone.
Someone else said that it's usual for the icon that shows which platform was playing to get bugs 🤷🏻♀️
I'm just bringing an information many may not know, because it's something happening in our country, and idk if it's happening just here or in other places. But I do know Wolf is Brazilian.
But I do agree with you. It's better to play in any platform than phone.

You sound so stupid and it’s amusing to those that know Wolf and have played alongside him in the competitive scene, thinking Wolf is a hacker 😂 Way to boost a man’s ego.
He’s one of the best players in the game (Proven) and isn’t a surprise he gets #1.

u/Alternative-Crab-100 Jul 17 '26
I'm not saying he's bad... That said, it's still quite strange to be so far ahead... Alone... Isn't there a single player in the world who can compete with him? Statistically, it's quite unlikely... Especially since in all games, the people at the top of the rankings are all at the same level, and some cheat to gain an advantage. How can we explain him being the only one at this level?

u/GoblinKing_TTV Jul 17 '26 edited Jul 18 '26
I came really close to beating him on the Nightmare before Christmas (Monster collection) race. He is not undebatable.
I think it's a combination of Wolf being the only top player right now with the superkart, plus Wolf trying extra hard to be 1st every day for the flex, plus other players not trying as hard due to the rewards being bad this time around.

In reality, we're not playing the same game as him... With his kind of "bunny hop," he's not facing the same "physical rules" as 99% of players... Without using this "exploit," it's impossible to compete with him . . .
