Every game I play that has a minimap has one of two options which you cannot pick from: Smooth, or choppy.

 

Smooth - looks like it is moving with your character at a constant speed. (Higher FPS)

 

Choppy - looks like it moves in a block-like manner. This being it moves only with your character only every like 5 steps instead of every step.

 

Question: Which of these qualities do you guys use for your minimap?

From looking at the teaser video, it looks like the game will have a "smooth" minimap(which is good because choppy just doesn't feel right).

You right, I can see that. Now if the map is dynamic.... <3

I like that the orientation of the mini-map remains the same with North always pointing up and direction indicated by the center icon. Rotating maps with a static center icon take longer to surmise. Also can't wait to see the full size map, eventually, aside from the map shown in the original teaser trailer.

This is my signature, there are many like it but this one is mine.
