Instance Maps

One of my greatest excitements has been the addition of maps to instances. I clapped excitedly when I noticed them in Violet Hold. I figured this would have extended to all dungeons, but I was horribly surprised that it meant only WotLK instances. Please please, consider adding maps to the rest of the instances in game. It would greatly add to game enjoyment.

The maps are pretty awesome. Eventually, we intend to add additional maps for the dungeons outside of Northrend.

Out of curiosity, why haven't there been maps in the past? Was it a gameplay choice or a lack of the time required to create them?


It's really do to a lack of time, though very early on when we were first designing the game we felt like giving players a map would take away from the discovery and mystery of crawling through a dungeon.

Wait a minute... aren't you supposed to be crushing dreams?


I've been learning that my very existance crushes dreams.
