You know they used to have a Fog of War (what you call hidden until discovered) but got rid of it for broadband issues or something like that. The lack of good maps in the game is why so many people use
EQ2Maps. Yes, it's shameful that one has to use 3rd party apps but apparently the devs are good with it that way.
You know, in 2004, this idea - lack of broadband - might've been "normal". Seems like a pretty lazy answer in 2024, where one can run far more advanced apps & programs off one's *phone* today than one could do on their desktop computer twenty years ago. The internet has come a long way - their using "broadband issues" as an excuse in 2024 sounds like they're running the game servers off a hamster wheel!
Again ... WoW & other games work their maps this way. I don't see any of them complaining about map "bandwidth" when it comes to providing even the simplest of maps for their players. I'm not asking to have dungeon maps labeled with every single point of interest. I'm asking why we can't have the *simplest* of maps in dungeons. The fog/clouding of maps would only apply to dungeons, since that's where the dev seems to think the "thrill of discovery" comes from, not the open zone maps, which are already totally viewable as soon as you enter those zones.
