Trying to find friends around the map can be really difficult if you're new to the game. I understand there are maps and what not online that aid in this kind of thing, but what do you guys think of a coordinates system? That way, you could just give a newer player your coordinates in order for them to get to you much easier. Is this something you guys would like? If not a coordinates system, what else do you think could be added in order to help with finding specific areas, or friends?
No, you will never need it. Once you play for about two hours, you will really know your way around. Coordinates would make it a whole lot less immersive, less realistic, and too easy. The idea of the game is to be a challenge of survival. Nothing should be added, if you are experienced enough, you can talk to your friends and help to navigate them to you, or attempt to navigate to them.

It would be for new players more than anything, the map can be difficult to use if you're new to the game.
Yeah I agree coordinates might be a bit too much, however an unmarked mini-map would be a nice HUD option.
Its pretty easy to learn the map in a few days or a day but i feel like there should not even be Coordinates System.
And there already is a coordinates system for server admins.

there is but you have to know the cords have fun leaning the cords.
If implemented properly..with lets say a craftable map...coords with fit nicely into the game. Especially if larger maps are added in the future.
play my server then, it has coordinates enabled for everyone: [url]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1340908[/url]
take a lab or 2 around the road, you'll always spawn near a road so you'll know where to meet

Navigating by coordinates is easy. It's like a game of warmer-colder except with numbers.
