The clunkiness and sticky moments with the Map on XBox (not got a PS at the moment) definately mars the moment especially for New Players. Various solutions have been bandied about but none really address the issue nor offer a possible long term fix.
So here’s my 50Cents worth:-
Offer a drop down menu in Map Mode or View and enable players to select the Region Map (say Stonefalls) the map opens in the selected area and Voila!
Of course seasoned players can continue as theyve always done, if they so wish.
No more using my iPad with a saved Map Image to figure out where I’m going to next in a Quest. Fixing the sticky map may be an issue, offering an area after selection is a lot easier that finding a recurring bug.
