When I re-enter the battlefields, everything I uncovered (the fog of war that I explored) is black again. Is this the way it's supposed to be? It's very annoying, since I have to explore much of the map again to find the next dungeon. I'm talking about the act 2 battlefield. Is there a logic positioning of the dungions like in act 1?

Thanks for any answers.

Not as far as I know. Once you explore an area it should stay that way. As for the lay out, don't know. I did not use the BF after act1.

This happens on my map too. I find that if I scroll the main screen over those blackened areas, however, they are revealed on the map. HTH.

As long as you are in the battlefield area everything will remain clear. When you return to the regular world, and then later return to the battlefield, you will have areas that are blacked out on your map. It isn't the fog that you cleared before, though, and as you move large areas will be rerevealed. This is probably just a quirk in the game.


Don't do today, what you can put off till tomorrow.

Heh, you're actually being too kind. I'm inclined to call it an annoying bug.

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" /> Hi,

I am doing the Act 11 battlefields now. I don't see any paticular order to the entrances. So I have had to walk around looking for the correct entrance that matches the key that I have. It does matter what key you've found though. A higher number key will open the entrances below it's number as well. I number the ones I've finished and obviously write done next to the number. Just a way to keep tract of where I've been. If they're locked I write locked on the map also. Which means I do not have that key yet.
I hope I've helped you a little.

Shelli

It happens to me too. It's a PITA but not a major one. The "fog" rolls back faster the second time around. If your mini map is black, just click it off and back on again in different ways.
