    Request: Party Members as Arrows/Blips on Maps

    Good afternoon! I'm aware Party Members show up in the 3D world view and on the compass (I believe) but it would be very helpful to have them show up as Arrows or Blips.

    Thanks!

    Alas, @padreadamo , that would require real-time updating of the maps - which, due to the size/abilities of our current dev team, will never happen.

    This should have been in the game for some time, it's something "critical" for party/guilds.

    How not? is one of the first things to do when implementing such a system.

    Even cell phone games have this, mainly because the party is usually used with new and lost players, where you practically have to carry them on your lap so they don't get lost.

    But I understand that it must be a lot of work...
    To this day, they haven't "succeeded" in fixing the edges of the maps :rolleyes:

    Because you can see your party member's names from great distances.
