Spyglass island pop-up

There is a map on the ship that has the name of every island so I dont really see the point of this

Not only is there a map, after a while, you learn to identify islands based on how they look, and the map starts to get memorized the longer you play. You'll get to the point where you'll know exactly what direction to sail for the next island you need to go to.

@europa4033 this was a suggestion for more newer players as myself

...of which I and everyone else used to be too, and also had to learn by constantly going to the map, finding the island, and learning the names and locations of. I used to wish there was a flashcard game I could play to learn the names of the islands.

Personally, I wanted to be able to just go wherever I needed to without using the map. So I learned one island, and then learned the others surrounding it. Once I knew that area well, I'd work on another area, and so on and so forth. This is how I learned.

But let me guess, you can't do that, and you need Rare to program our spyglass to show the names of islands.

QOL argument incoming 😂 it's usually in that order after "poor new players" strategy fails.
