EverQuest II News - Map System Overhaul for GU 50

Posted by Keith Cross on Nov 04, 2008  | 9 comments in our forums

The EverQuest II official site has been updated with a look at at the game's new map system that will be implemented with game update 50.

With GU 50, we'll see The Shadow Odyssey go live. But that isn't all there will be on November 18th. One of the new features that everyone will get is the new map system!

The map system has been completely reworked and there's a new main screen with a fresh new look. All of the overland maps have been redone as well! The various city scenes are more detailed than ever before.

There's also a new POI (point of interest) directory. It works with outside POI's as well, and this will be beneficial to folks who use add on's such as EQ2Maps. You'll be able to drop custom POI's into your map directory and have them appear. Your POI will also blink on the main map, and set a waypoint while in the same zone.
