The map is almost useless

I had lots of complaints about Control, and the map is certainly one of them. But honestly, they just should have had no map at all, and had the player use the in-game signs. That’s a pretty cool idea, but it seems as if they hedged against it, and then screwed up their hedge.

Honestly, I would've preferred 0 map than what we got.

The map would not be that bad if there wouldn't be so many different levels. Maybe they should've given as a checkpoint mark which indicates at which direction you must go or something. I'm not sure if I would find some of the places without a few youtube videos.

I know the feeling. I gave up on this game 2 years ago because the navigation system was driving me bonkers. Now I'm re-playing the game and am up to episode 7. It's been going relatively well - I'm just following the signs and using fast travel frequently. A guide here and there doesn't hurt either. 

 

I think the game is an easy plat if you have enough patience (~30% platinum achievers) so I hope it will become my 15th Platinum soon.

The lack of waypoints was honestly a big plus for me. You get the sense of actually discovering the layout of the building, instead of your hand being held every step of the way. I mostly ignored the map, and relied more on the signs. Great game.
