Randomly Generate the Map
This game would have the replayability if the map is randomized. Because once u memorize the single map it has its just easy

with the amount of time something like that would take this game would be in early access for at least another 5 years

Randomly generated maps aren't exactly good at keeping a story pieced together.

A Random gen map 'would' be nice but would be an entirely separate thing to be thought on and best put on the back burner till well after full release.

size of the map is roughly 4X the size of the first game (which wasn't randomly generated either). I think this would be a bit more taxing of a process, but I'm not a dev.

The point made above about not pairing well with keeping a story pieced together I"m definitely in agreement with, though depending on the story type a game like Diablo does generate maps. The difference is those maps are much less in depth than what this island has involved, and we'd likely see a lot more graphics errors around things like waterfalls and streams, and there may also be spots that you'd just get stuck and not be able to jump/climb out of.

Randomly generating the map is in the hard basket, but what is much more achievable and also discussed before is randomly placing where the certain elements are found. i.e. the key cards, the weapons, the shovels etc. which introduces replayability.

Maybe it could be added as a separate mode even which would make players pretty happy they were getting value for money.
