It would be nice to have a quick map shortcut instead of having to run to look at the map to see where you are. even an on-screen map would be nice.
Quick map Option
Hey! Rare keeps one big map on the ship and nowhere else because it helps with immersion. Realistically (and I know this game isn't 100% realistic, but you know what I mean), you wouldn't really be able to pull up a massive map on your HUD and look at where you're going, you'd have to run down to the map room and find out for yourself.
It also helps make crews cooperate, by giving them a reason to communicate (if I'm on the helm and I need a heading, I don't want to run all the way down to the map room, but my crewmate can.
They have said that this was intentional in the past, and why they like the idea, so they're probably planning on keeping it this way.
Could you imagine how much easier it would be to complete the X Marks the Spot maps, if this option were to be implemented?
Lol. No thank you. It spices up the game, to have to have a good sense of direction and memory. A lot of the skillz you need for this game can be quickly learned, and boil down to memory/muscle memory.
