Read the whole thread....people are making lists and maps based off these coordinates. They can and are being used for pinpoint navigation. Even the best of navigators of this time period could not get such pinpoint location/navigation. It needs to be removed as soon as possible. Really shakes my confidence in this games community that more are not against this.....

You clearly dont understand what this is about. Having an ingame bug report function is great! Im all for it. The issue is having the coordinates visable to players......do you really not see the difference there? I do have a way knowing roughly how many are using this...its called paying attention. No less than 4 threads on Steam forums either asking for or sharing coordinate based data. There is also several google docs being passed around mapping coordinates. Im guessing your one of the tryhards using this system for navigation...only logical reason for having issues with this post.

There is absolutly no reason why those coordinates should be visable to players. They can be included in the report without being seen by the player. And after a month no official response of anykind. Gonna have to take that as a sign that Devs are ok with players using this system for navigation.... Also, the tools ingame are fit for purpose. Yes, it would be nice to have some more (period correct) tools for mapping and navigation. This does not in anyway justify the large amount of players using these co-ords for navigation. Yall have fun with the tryhards using dev sanctioned GPS...im done

So everyone is really ok with a gps system ingame that rivals military systems as far as mapping accuracy goes? What a waste....

I would suggest anyone who cares about the sim value of this game also boycott playing until this issue is at the LEAST addressed by the developers.

Done with this game till there is some kind of response to this. Will be leaving a negative review till this is rectified. Have had same topic on steam forums for over a month with no official reply. And yall had to approve this thread, so I know someone official has seen this. I have to, based on this, assume the devs are ok with players using the coordinate system for navigation.

What debates? Real men do just fine with compass+sun/landmarks... All others (read: pathetic tryhards) are using map coordinates and player made lists/maps based on the coords. Im not playing till that is removed....

The map coordinates need to be removed from player view in the bug report pop-up. This is a HUGE oversight!!! Whats the point of even having a compass ingame if you give every player easy access to a GPS system thats accurate down tot he meter? There is even posts starting to pop up on Steam forums where players are asking for the co-ords of towns n such. Google docs available for anyone to download giving co-ords. Even some full on maps beign worked on. Honestly if any Tryhard can get to the meter accurate co-ords at the push of a button Im about done with this game. One of the MAJOR draws for me (and many others Ive spoken to) is hardcoreish/sim value of the game. Would love to here an official response to this.
