Need Your Help Internet!

[xnecroelitex]

So I have been looking into creating videos for Destiny upon release, but have also ambitiously started a project that I'm way in over my head in at the moment. I want to collect all the knowledge from the Beta and release a few pre-release tutorials that would make full use of a detailed map. I have thus far taken a picture of the Earth/Cosmodrome and have overplayed it with routes taken from another in-game photo taken during the Beta that showed these routes:

I am now tasked with watching other players YouTube Videos where they explore the Cosmodrome so that I can check it's accuracy. It seems accurate thus far but I am facing a couple problems. One is that there are a few roads missing. Second is I would like to add building outlines in different colors and maybe key landmarks like the old boats and planes for better reference. Anyone here skilled at this sort of thing or has the time to help me out. Without a pull up map in game I feel this map will come in handy when I do my tutorials to help show players exactly where each chest and ghost is located, maybe even regular loot chests, and great farming spots. This is what I have this far.

Let me know if you need anything from me. Expect my progress to be placed in this thread periodically until the game release. Thanks in advanced fellow Guardians!

Also where is the exact spawn point when exploring the cosmodrome. I don't want to guess it must be accurate. I have an idea but if you could help confirm it would help me a lot.

The support of this community disappoints me

My brain just does not work like that.

If I had a hard copy map to work with and a functioning beta I could be of some help but true confession... I invented walking in circles...

I'm not sure it's a matter of "support" or not -

1. We don't know you. Maybe someone helps you out and puts a couple hours into your project and you just drop it?
2. Maybe people ( like me ) don't want to know the exact spot of every location and path and chest?
3. You gave people what? A day? Two? Is that enough time for everyone to see it - let alone respond?
4. This isn't a community of thousands ( yet! ) where a dozen people might be just like you and love this kind of thing.
5. I'm sorry you're disappointed, but this community is actually pretty awesome - but it's because of what people put into it - not try to take from it - that makes it that way.

Feel me?

3 days without so much as a "here is a suggestion" or a "can't help but good luck" was very disappointing. At the very least motivation would have helped because it's no easy task to complete.

Ok then. Sorry no one jumped. Good luck with it.

Sorry I didn't reply. I felt that my "sorry I can't help you" would've been space best left for people who could have helped.

This.

Also,  in regards to the exact spawn point,  if you are looking for an exact and accurate location,  and not conjecture,  the only way you are likely to get that now that the beta is closed and people can't log in to confirm,  is through someone who already has an accurate map created,  and if they already have it,  why would they be looking for another one?

Anyone else could only look at a video captured from the video and compare it to landscape features to take a stab at it,  but this is something you could just as easily do yourself. It just doesn't seem like a request you are likely to get an answer to.

This is exactly correct. I've looked at gameplay and determined what I believe to be the spawn point, but I need a collaborate answer to see if others agree. I haven't put my assumption on the map yet because I don't want people to just say yes that seems right, I need others to check and find out to give me a true confirmation.

The rest of it is the same I've come up with about 20% of the landmarks and buildings thus far but their is a lot left. I still need help.

I may have a bit of time over the next couple days as I'm sick, I might take a look at some beta footage and see where I determine it to be. Any other points of interest you want me to look for while I'm at it?

Everything. All building locations and key landmarks you can distinguish
