In 7.14 beta 1 on Windows 10:
When using the new Atlas Tool it seems as though towns / cities are only shown if relevant to the map - see example below

Note - this isn't a "zoom level" issue - other towns / villages don't appear even if you zoom in.
I seem to remember the old Atlas working differently allowing other places to appear making it easier to get a "context". But I could be wrong!
Is this how it is supposed to work?
And, if so, how would we - for example - get an overview map of the biblical world at the time of Jesus?
