I have a couple ideas that I think would be beneficial to the world map. The first being a zone outline feature, and the second and primary idea is a zone selection feature.
The outline ideally would just be a subtle outline around the zone your mouse hovers on. This would help distinguish zones as you move your mouse across the map and would aid in getting acquainted with the over all zone layout and familiarity of the map as a whole. This also would tie in with my second suggestion.
When looking at the world map you see two tables of data on the upper left side: Your over all completion of the world, and your completion of the zone you’re currently in. The function of the zone selection feature would be to change the zone displayed under the world completion table. This would allow you to open your map and see the completion of individual zones without needing to actually be in the zone. This way if your sitting in LA and you want to go back and complete any zones you haven’t fully explored yet you can see what zones aren’t complete without traveling all the way there first.
Any thoughts?
