map of world

[Constin]

I was wondering if there is a map of the game, like in the sewer.

No, and there shouldn\'t be.  I think that people should make their own maps, because then they can sell them to one another to promote a player based economy.  Maybe not for tria, but for other favours, other maps, or equipment.


I plan on mapping out the sewer in detail.  The end product will be an attractive jpeg of an old looking map which I can email to people in trade for weapons / information etc.

 Like you can stop those people from redistributing it for free afterwards. Besides, maps are NOT going to be the backbone of a player-based economy, food, weapons and armor will be.

No, I expect them to share it with their friends and guild.  However, guild probably won\'t share it with eachother, and not everybody knows everybody else.  It might be that if I make it, I\'ll only plan on making a single sale, then the burden will be on that individual to make back some of the money by selling it again at a lower price.

The best way to go about doing it would be to sell it to a guild.  They would have the money to spend, and they\'d instantly share it with all their members.

There\'s a cartagopher job that will let the cartagophers make maps then sell them, you\'ll get maps like that.

Yeah... how many months or years might it be until we see that skill in the game though?  I think have some maps handy will help people explore the game faster, be more familiar with the areas of the city and wild, and this is a good thing.  It\'s good because the more familiar people are with the game, the more they can contribute to its developement.

I almost never play the game and I know my way around pretty well anyways.
I think they\'ll add a temp map once the world is bigger(until the cart. jobs ready). But they have more important things to do right now.

Or you can just die and leave the death realm. Its not so hard as long as you don\'t have one of those problems where you cant see and you keep /unstick handy..
