Adding West/North/East/etc. to locations during teleport

[Lisotte]

Ideally, the teleport menu would actually be a map with different locations you can click on. >_< It'd be a million times more user friendly.

It'd also be slow as shit to do with a pad.

I think it'd make things waaaayyyy simpler if when you hit the teleport button and you see the list of destinations, it would say the name of what zone the aetheryte's in next to the name of the camp, in parentheses. For example, Bentbranch Meadows (Central Shroud). It would make things much easier, don't even have to open the map at all. Could also use this strategy to solve the aethernet problem; have the name of the zone the destination is, in parentheses next to the destination name.

Then make it an option. >_>; UIs should be as user friendly as possible.

I generally say, "If you don't know where you're goin, stay the f*** home." But I'm usually screaming that at idiots on the road while driving home from work.
Though, it still applies here.
Look at the map first, THEN teleport. Takes 5-10 seconds. No need for SE to waste time and money making a change for something that is working just fine.

Actually, I'm glad you brought that up. There are roads used in North America which have 'North', 'East', 'West', etc. attached to them. Sure, you can look at a map, but it's just as convenient for someone to say:

"Take I-56 North"

rather than having to pull out a map, especially if it's in your area. I don't see how adding these to area names would actually take away anything from the player. I only see positives in adding such a feature, honestly.

Even numbered interstates run east/west.
Odd numbered interstates run north/south.

That whole 5 minutes and like $3 it would take to implement a quality of life improvement that benefits everyone.

I had to teleport to five different locations before finding a specific area and ended up wasting a good bit of gil (well, a good bit in teleportation fees anyway).

Not to against your suggestion, but you should really check the location on the map after your first incorrect teleport. But I more wish they can put the location name in the city Aetheryte teleport, so I know the blue gate in Gridania will lead me to Centre Shroud etc.

[Altena]

I seem to recall them eventually planning to implement a "click on the map to teleport" feature or similar..

This would also be enough.

Whatever happened to people committing a simple list of type <hamlet name - map name> to memory?
Oh right. Computers happened.
