PLEASE make crafting surveys easier for console players.

I’m not asking for an auto assistant to do all our surveys for us, it would just be nice to have something that marks our surveys on the map for us, to bring consoles QOL slightly more in line with PC and all its add ons.
Especially as more people make the switch to PS5, which has resolution issues making it not possible to zoom in as far on the map.
It just feels unfair that console players are stuck having to google survey locations constantly, and get eye strain trying to find the right location on a zoomed out map, when realistically at a certain point it should be marked for us.
I wouldn’t even mind if some achievement like master crafter or something had to be unlocked to receive the perk.

    You console players are the true heroes. I just dont know how you do it. As a PC player, I just cannot fathom living and playing the game without my addons. They should be able to figure out some way to make your lives easier. Or, you can just come over here to the other side of the fence and join us PC players.

    Ditto for treasure maps, they are far worse than surveys.

    While that would be nice, in the end, I just look it up on the Internet.

    It would be nice if the chars could "remember" locations after they picked the survey. Same for treasure maps.

    Or they could just give us the raw resources in a container then and there instead of another small time waster

    I'd like the blue glowy chest passive to also work for treasure map mounds.

    I don’t want this. It would make node harvesting CP buffs pointless, remove the extra bonuses you can get from harvesting nodes (leads, nirncrux etc.) and would plummet the price of mats because they would flood the market. If you want the rewards, do the content. If you don’t like the content, don’t do it. It’s not a waste of time if you want the results.

    I've always thought it would be nice if a marker appears for surveys and maps in your inventory after you've collected the first of each, like how all other locations get an icon when you find them. I might actually do treasure maps then!

    Some of us have played on both and want the console experience instead due to the more equal playing field across the game. I felt like on PC I needed to have the addons since everyone was using them. Where as console everyone has the same tools to use.
    PvP needs more love.

    I’m not spending money on a pc that I don’t need, can’t afford, and don’t have space for, just to play a game I already own but with a slightly better QOL.

    If players want all the perks that PC players have they should play on PC. Dumbing the game down to cater to game boxes has hurt the game in too many ways already.

    First of all, no one is asking for “all the perks” this is a discussion about one single QOL feature.
    Second, how is adding something that PC has to console dumbing it down? Surely that makes PC the most dumbed down since it has addons for everything?
    Would love to know how console players getting a single marker feature for surveys hurts the game at large in any way, shape or form.

    This would be a QoL update that would benefit everyone.

    Probably the most ironic post I've read in 2024.

    Maybe last year as well
