this first iteration of the physical map comes with the Explorer pledge. At least, it did before it was expired.
yea cloth map no longer avalible.. for now. they might(should) make it avalible after were out of early Access on the store. but not sure.
When I bought the Collector Pledge, I thought it came with a cloth map. I was asking because I don't see it in the description, anymore.
If you bought your pledge prior to the Winter Expiration event then you have the Cloth Map. https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?page_id=54585 We don't list expired items on the public facing pages. We have an outstanding task in our backlog to list all rewards on the account page but we have not yet gotten to it. Our apologies for any confusion that may be causing you.
It's been a while, so I'm sure I'm on the "cloth map" list. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a "removed" benefit, or that I'd missed something.
AFAIK, there are no "removed" benefits, only expired ones. You cannot obtain a new map anymore, but if you were eligible when you got it, nobody can remove it now. Well, maybe Chris can come and try to prick it from your cold, dead hands...
That's exactly what it would take, too. heh The cloth map, to me, is as much part of the "Ultima" lore as the Avatar mythology; I just can't see playing the game without it.
The Ultima cloth maps always were from excellent quality. I know - and own - some other recent games, which offers a cloth map (Pillars of Eternity, Divinity Original Sin) but these maps are far away from the quality of the Ultima maps. As far as I know Lord British I am sure the Shroud map will also have an excellent quality. Can't wait to hold mine in my hands
My nephew(7 years old) is always digging around in my old toy box when my mom babysits him, and he brings my old toys to my house whenever he thinks he finds something I might still want. He found and delivered a pretty much mint condition original UO cloth map last weekend and I almost had a heart attack.
