TheWraithPlayer Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Finding maps in a gas station is a piece of cake IRL, why can't we have at least town maps available. It would be much easier (at least for me) to find where I'm going with and in game map instead of having to pause and exit and then go to a website online. Any comments/question/concerns, please reply. Thanks for reading. Jericoshost and Unghin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necromatic_Corgi Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I have seen this suggested a lot lately and all I can say is...I need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PZ Mania Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 It is a pretty good idea as long as the map doesn't change at all. (Such as people breaking down houses and building new ones.) Also there should not be any indicator that shows where any players are. The map should be like the one in real life. Another interesting idea would be using nails to mark areas on the map, or using pencils/pens to mark certain areas. This marked map could also be dropped/traded for others to look at too. This feature could also bring in new interesting features in multiplayer - such as using maps to host treasure hunt events, or using it as plans/blueprints for a large group built fortresses.

A map is needed mostly to mark looted houes, Z-mobs, stashes of food and water, burnt structures. Could be useful for multiplayer, to share locations of hidden bags (if needed).

Keshash Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 It was clear that maps will be in game since day 1 of Spiffo. Look: Spiffos? Check! Backpacks? Check! Question marks? Check! Logs? Check! Ability to sit? Half-check! Maps? Necromatic_Corgi and Kuren 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you have a point on the sign thing, they'd need to ad those, even if it went like this Street1 Street2 Street3 It wouldn't be very interesting, but it would help me a lot just to have that.

I think It is good idea to get map for landmarking! You get map, take pencil and start makes notes on this map. Yes, we can recieve map in overlay, but we can forget about looted/unlooted houses - that will be very useful, especially in WP. And just imagine what can happen if sombody find map with mark: "Is there any trap? Any safehouse? Any places full of loot?" - so intrigue! But I think that scale of the map will be about state, I don't know how actual townscale maps in USA. I hope that in future PZ map will grow up to HUGEMEGABIGPZMAP and I will move to Florida!

This can be like it is in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. : you can find a map (maybe doodle-like shitty map, drawn on some random sheet of paper? or even a text discription) on survivers's dead body or get a map from an NPC as a thankyou for some favour. The map that has a mark like "bag full of tools, too heavy to drag through Z's mobs" or "20 bottles of whiskey, builing X, second floor, under a sink" Edited September 6, 2016 by GOGOblin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
