I assume that most people don’t take notice of the string of numbers on every map’s loading screen. The more astute among us may have realized that they are, in fact, coordinates. As it turns out, each map location translates to a real world place, most of which really make sense given the map design.
Split, for example, is located in Tokyo, Japan according to its coordinates. This makes sense given the map’s architecture and signage.
Interestingly, Haven is located in Bhutan, a nation in Southeast Asia. Bhutan has a large Buddhist population so it makes sense that the map would be a zen garden.
Unsurprisingly, the Range and Ascent are both located near Venice, Italy. Their architecture makes that obvious. We can assume that some kind of cataclysmic non-Euclidian event decimated the city, leaving huge chucks of it suspended in mid-air.
Lastly, we have Bind. It’s located near Tunisia, which makes sense given the architecture and surrounding desert. We can safely assume that it’s some kind of Radianite processing facility.
