Skeeblix Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 So, you guys finally added a compass to stop the complaining about people who couldn't find default camera rotation. Cool. But to me, it seems that pretty much everyone can agree that the compass is the most useless item in the game. It has no real function. At all. Here's an idea that would make it at least have some sort of purpose, restoring some of the actual function of the item (navigation) as a means of unifying the player team's sense of direction. You know how the camera always starts with the character facing north-east? Why not have the start position of the camera be randomized for every player when they connect? This way, everyone's directions are all different, nobody knows where true north is until someone crafts a compass. BOOM! Your useless, crowd-pandering item just became a survival tool again. -drops mic- Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/64458-make-the-compass-at-least-semi-useful/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Letter W Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 also if upon crafting it, it became a part of your hud instead of a held item...

ToastyMcGee Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Yeah, it's kinda useless as of now. It's like one of those items that you only craft when you're insane, but even THAT doesn't give you any sanity.

Serph Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 You know that player who spins the camera all the time and when someone asks for direction he has no idea what to say? That's the only player who gets any benefit from having a compass. Spoiler I am that player...
