    the nested towns need more visibility. adding the list of nested town to the info mouse over of overland towns (like the number of vendors, etc) would help.

    for bonus points, find a way to zone into a nested town from this list. i understand the need to limit the number of towns on the map and the "exclusiveness" of having map access. but, there are some really great nested towns that most players will never see.

    for super mega bonus points, give nested town more "reach" when connecting to overland towns. the more connections they have the more likely someone will be to find them. i strongly feel there should be some benefit that nested towns have over overland ones.

    Yes I agree. This is really a must have.

    That's a very nice idea. It would help (new and old) players while exploring the player-made communities :)

    Waste of resources IMO (at least for now) I'm not sure how many of them there are but 50 of them move in E2

    Great idea and I think that it would be quite simple to do.

    +1 Absolutely makes sense and is needed. Relatively minimal work to implement I would expect.

    I say list the nested towns, but do not show all that information. Some Towns have a ton of nested towns.

    As for adding the direct click, I think that would erase the exclusiveness of the Overworld access, and generally not fair to those that got them for that purpose.

    until your comment, i had't really consider providing easier access as unfair to anyone. it gives me a bit more to consider. thanks for the additional perspective.

    Great idea :D
    I would like to add a similar idea: Add nested adventure zones to the list of entrances for a given overworld zone.
    However, in this case, the entrance to the nested adventure zone would be discoverable.
    For example, if you have never found Elysium Mine inside Twins foot hills, then the overworld entrance would not show Elysium mines.
    If you have found Elysium mines, then every time you enter twins foothills, Elysium mines would appear on the Overworld Entrance list - so that you could enter Elysium mines directly from the over world.
    If this was done for all nested adventure zones, it would dramatically reduce the # of loading screens (although it might contribute to the world feeling empty since you will see less avatar's running through these zones).
