I agree also, you wouldn't believe how difficult it is when you are a new player and no one will stop to help you to find somewhere and unless you are lucky enough to get into a guild quickly, then you can get very lost which has happened to me so many times. The only way you can learn about the other town like ojaveda or the fortress is by getting another player to take you there and i have found that most players have their own way of getting to the other towns, so you can get very confused when you go by yourself.
I know they have a generic map you can buy to mark places or do something with it, but I have never understood how to use it and i haven't found anywhere that explains how to use it. I understand that the game is about learning things for yourself, but when you tell us to ask others in the game for help, what's the difference in asking them for help and asking the forum for help, you are still telling us where to go or what to do, so what's the use to tell us you can't help us. I feel the games more about working it out alone without any care from admin.
They are so busy to keep the server running correctly without any problems, that they don't care or have the time to help us when we need it and when they do help it's very rare to get a sensible answer that you understand. I am sure a lot of people can relate to what I am saying as to all the questions I have asked, like where do I find a character, I get told sorry we can't help you with that, ask someone for help in the game, which if i am mistaken is the same way of asking you.
The other problem is that 90% or more of the people in the game have things to do, they don't have all the time in the world to keep taking new players to this place and that place when they are trying to finish a quest. The answer is simple and so is the action behind it, make us a map of the towns at least so we know where things are. I know you can get a town map of hydlaa from the librarian, but that is practically a sketch and it doesn't tell where north is, or things like the winch or arena.
When I ask for help to find a place I get told to go through the north gate, but which is the north gate, nothing tells you where it is and that map of hydlaa only has pictures of around 5 buildings like the temple etc, it doesn't show you the gates or where important places are like major characters. In essence, it should have all the above.
