wolfstriked 143 Posted July 12, 2012 I am now constantly tabbing out to view online maps.The reason is that I suck if I play the game realistically but do well when I use online maps.I have done circle after circle,ending up back at coast after an hour due to there being no realism when navigating in game.Some player posted yesterday that they navigate with the clouds.Come on now,someone explain how thats possible?The reason why you can't navigate properly is that the draw distance is set very low.So many times I see moutains in the distance and think I am headed the right way only to be back on coast 5 minutes later.So please at least give us a map to start with.Its still a task to open up a map and try to navigate without a compass.

wolfstriked 143 Posted July 12, 2012 Well consider me enlightened.Its genuis to make them move east to west but stupid to not inform the masses.Can you explain the shadow part though.LOL I guess I am just not the mountain man type,being from NYC and all. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miragenz 71 Posted July 12, 2012 I don't really mind either way, but since everyone alt tabs anyways, the map isnt that valuable, just convinient. Might aswell add it to the basic pack, but there are also reasons not to do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bender Rodriguz 8 Posted July 12, 2012 Im really good with never eating soggy waffles and most the time I have no problem with knowing which way is what. You have to remeber where the sun is and where the water is to your location. I know when you get way out there it gets hard. Don't use the hills as a land mark. Only use the roads and towns mostly farms because they are less common to find you location. Im also against spawning with a map or compass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfstriked 143 Posted July 12, 2012 What if you can't find Cherno.I have backtracked so many times I thought I was losing my mind.WTF is that the same dam cabin again!!!I am now using online maps as everyone else does but that sucks.Just feel that since most will resort to this that its just better to put the map in.

TeaLeaf 5 Posted July 12, 2012 Out of game maps are just better. I don't give a crap what happens in regards to the in-game one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
