Fog is an amazing and welcome addition to Sea of Thieves. The effect is incredible, eerie and exciting. But there's one major problem. Being immersed in a bank of fog should make navigation extremely challenging, if not impossible. Unfortunately, however, every pirate ship comes equipped with a handy, flawless, state-of-the-art GPS system.
The GPS is fine during normal sailing. I always rationalize this little anachronism by assuming we (pirates) are knowledgeable enough about navigation that we usually know about where we are and where we're going. This is simulated by the magical "GPS" chart table. In the middle of a fog bank, however, with no visual navigational references whatsoever...navigation should not be so easy.
To cut to the chase, I believe our "GPS systems" should also be obscured by fog when we're in the thick of a fog bank, making them ineffective as a means of navigation. As it stands, it's easy to navigate around the world in fog as long as someone's watching the map. Instead, the fog should obscure the map table, if not completely then mostly, covering everything but a tiny window that might show you the name of the island you're about to run aground on but not much else. This would greatly add to the danger and suspense of slogging through the dense fog.
Please consider killing the GPS in fog banks. Thanks.
