Title: Map Icons
Post by: Kalikedeshi on February 17, 2014, 11:35:07 am
Okay, let me explain.
It took me A WHILE to find where a gun-shop is.
And now I need/want a phone, "Go to electronic shop"

Where is the electronic shop??

So I think, we need more icons in the map to show where the gun shops/electronic shops are.
We may also need that for important places. (clothing shop to get Niko Bellic skin, etc)

If we put icons to every single shop, we wont be able to see the map, only the seas maybe... ^^"

Some things are supposed to be known via roleplays, in my opinion.

Welcome to Argonath btw.

Shops are added by time, as I know location can matter depending between free buildings(Un-Owned) based on player request. Adding icons each time and to each shop(which in this case, there can ne in time, unlimited shops so as you wish, lots of icons) can cause lots of difficulties in map. Also its owner's job to make ppl know it, not server's. You can always ask people where to get something also.

Well, when i was in your position i was told the same, i was told  " electronic shop " , so i started searching for it , i didn't moan about it. What im trying to say here, is make some effort and search the shop by your own ways , we can't give you everything to your hands, we can only guide you. Dont be lazy.

I think, that there should be only one icon added to the map, and that is the icon to my bar.

Actually,it takes time for you to know wheres the places are.I was having no idea when I was newbie in the server and I called for a taxi to show me around.Instead you could just ask for a taxi drive to electronic shop.
