about map blips
#1
Anyone who's played GTA IV before will know that blips (llike burger shots) will appear on your map once you've used or been in the place. I figured it'd be nice to have something similar in LVP. For example, the bomb shop currently appears as a blue dot on your map once you get close enough, this means everyone can spot it in no-time. if people actually have to find it, it'd be like hunting for props, and I think alot of people would agree that hunting for props is a fun thing to do :D

This could also be sued for finding props you've bought before, so they appear as green house-icons once you get close enough. that saves you some time looking for it when you know it's around you somewhere.



how do you guys think about this? :)

I was forced to reply, but Richard says I should be lazy and not say anything useful so yea.. _O-

(Actually, I don't know. I think it would be more work that it's worth. Once you know where a prop is, you should be able to find it again in no time. :P And then consider the write output for something like that.. having to save each little piece of known prop.. it may seem small but then consider the load of players on LVP.. Might get resource intensive for a feature I just don't think many would use. But it does sound fun!)

But it's already like that? I mean, if you go ingame and go to the large map, you won't see the bomb shop icon. But, if you have been there already, you will see it.

He mostly meant it for properties.
