Is there a map with LAT/LONG available?

Actually not without landmarks of which there are VERY few of.

Also you act as if YOUR opinion is fact...it's not...it's an opinion. Others are entitled to theirs same as you.

I never stated mine as fact...the ONLY fact is that I'm not the only one to feel a map is needed because AGAIN there would not be third party maps...you can't dispute it as third party maps are a FACT.

If you don't need one very well and good for you!!

And why is the idea of an in game map so upsetting to you? It's not like it will hurt or impede YOUR gameplay at all for someone else to use an ingame map? If anything, same as a third party map...said person using an ingame map is vulnerable ti attack while using it. So where's the problem?

Also games where you play as an animal is NOT an excuse to not have a map as many games with such DO have them.

I have to agree with Shot'em. I find that navigating through the map with only your experience feels very rewarding. Also, you seem to be 10x more upset about this than everyone else. May your dinos thrive and ai spawns be plentiful.

Huh?! I'm not upset at all? Where did I ever say I was upset?

I'm just saying there are MANY that would benefit from an in game map and its not like it will hurt anyone to have it.

It was your capitalization and accusatory tone that made me think that you were upset. Then gain, I'm not you and I wouldn't know.

Oh sorry....I use caps to stress points nit to holler or anything...my apologies if seemed harsh or accusatory...honestly was NOT my intent. 😀

In any case whenever map is implemented developers will implement as THEY see fit.

Just as am honestly surprised at the negativity of some whenever someone such as myself suggestions maps for all factions because
1) third party maps do show that there is a need/want of a map
2) the presence of any map (third party OR in game doesn't hurt or impede those that don't use...only helps those that do make use of it.

Soo...have made my point and am willing to let the issue lie as is and again my apologies if upset anyone as honestly didn't mean to come across harshly or accusatory.

Night all REALLY REALLY tired today lol 💤💤💤💤💤

it is VERY hard to gauge someone elses tone when reading text - it's because of this that mistaken intentions happen 95% of the time because those reading it are influenced by how they are feeling [if your in an aggressive or sad or upset mood, you'll read anything like it's a personal attack against you/your intellegence - vice versa is true if you are relaxed or happy; you can't take offensive comments seriously because you don't read it that way in your 'mental voice' unless said poster uses swear words alot ]

but back to map
i'm going to admit that maps are useful and more then likely will be appreciated by over half the playerbase simply basing it an my own experiance
i needed a map to navigate V3 and i needed it for atleast 6 months before i started to memorize the landscape and then i never touched it again
so those that can find their way without one aren't really being negativly impacted by those of us that need a helping hand with Spiro's claustraphobiotic-foilage-face-slapping-simulator that is it's map XD
and as a map will be bound to the M key, it shouldn't really be a bother to those that don't want to use it; just don't push the button *shrugs*

but i do like the idea of a map that unlocks as you move about, it'd promote exploration more XD

You don't need Land Marks when you have basic Coordinates.

My opinion is that players don't need a map. The entire history of The Isle is my evidence, as people eventually learn the Map and having a visual aid is just a convenience. You can have your opinions against that.

Pay attention to this next quote because it's coming from your earlier comment:

Escrito originalmente por beebee73:

WRONG...as part of said player base I DO need a map...when said map is sooo huge and things all look TOO similar said map is the ONLY way to even get a HINT as to where you are.

Again, the player base are NOT
actual wild animals and there NEEDS to be a way to simulate this. I proposed a VERY good system to n which ALL factions humans AND dinos can have maps but is NOT the same map.

All of this is you stating Your Opinion As Fact.

And you don't either.

Same reason I think AI shouldn't replace the playerbase so that carni players never have to kill anybody: too convenient. You should learn to play the game via being invested in the game, watching the environment and reacting to it. Information about your playable, other playables, and the environment should come to you as second hand information. Something you have the potential to remember and forget, and not made easier to retain just because you have a side map. The problem, is that you aren't learning. You're not learning, because you're not putting forth the effort. If you were, you would've figured out how to use your GPS which basically functions like a limited map system...so seeing as that is already in game, what's the problem?

That goes both ways. Not an Excuse To Not. Not an Excuse To Do.

Me pointing out that we're an animal game is me using The Isle's natural theme, which is that you-the player-are a piece of the ecosystem. You are lost, and only by adapting will you stop being lost.

If anything this thread has shown that many players are against maps and that's perfectly reasonable, generally no opinion is a fact but knowing the developers themselves were against giving dinosaurs maps I'd say we are not likely to get any.
Don't forget humans will be in the game too and they wont have scent, night vision, a built in compass and a way to defend themselves, all they will have is a map and I think this really goes to show how entitled some of the dinosaur players are (even though humans are not even in the game yet).
You are given the ability to sniff food and water from far away, a built in compass and (in the future) nightvision, the very least you can do is use your eyes and memory to navigate the map instead of being given free navigation too, just learn the map people, many people in this thread have already shown its possible and even without a map you can smell water and food from far away giving you your basic needs, sure a map would help making it easier but you'll just form your own mental map eventually and then it will be that much easier.

No maps for dinos. Figure it out for yourself, that's part of the fun.
