More thoughts on maps

My hat goes off to all the talented people at Tiny Speck and their wonderful designs.  I've really enjoyed the game, but one thing has been bugging me.  The map.

Now, I understand that there is a lot of work involved with the map, and it can be quite the complex design problem.  Conducting a search I found a couple long-dead threads that offered much hope to the map enthusiast in me: here and here

I'd like to know if there is any further update or progress on these points.  I had a few ideas about the maps, but it seems that Soopa-Fresh had already been working on some similar ideas before I even entered testing.

Should we expect to see zoomability? meta-data? unique Giant symbols? unique Vendor symbols/shorthand? as mentioned in the above threads.

In addition, I'd like to see a subway station indicator on the street where a station is located.  Perhaps the indicator could link the subway map in addition to the link in the top left corner of the map.

  • @Homsar - not to worry, they just created the super cool terrain maps and have bunches of changes in store that haven't been implemented as of yet, including new icons for the vendors and giants and getting the landmarks on them. Now if you people would just stop breaking things maybe they will time to do that .... jk :)
