How do you prefer to get around the map?

[VariousSynonyms]

After most missions, if I didn't extract by chopper, I just went to the start menu and selected "Return to ACC". It's nice to have a quiet, safe spot to regroup, take care of any base management, listen to tapes, and then be able to drop in directly on the next mission instead of running all over the map. Occasionally I'll fast travel around if there are several side-ops I can take care of at once, or I'll drop in a car if there's no fast travel close by. I also go back to Mother Base fairly often, to shower, punch out my staff, and collect diamonds.

How do you prefer to get around? Do you keep a vehicle around to drive between missions, or have D-Horse as your constant companion? Do you take advantage of the fast travel system? Do you even know the fast travel system exists?

C-Box delivery is the best.

i use the fast travel around motherbase, that's about it. In the overworld i always blow up the AA control and call in the chopper after clearing the AO.

I typically use the horse. But I am slowly but surely starting to get used to the C-Box system and have been collecting invoices.

Pop in the world, do any whatchamacallit mission, set the animal traps, call Pequod.

I don't use fasttravel nor return to ECC because it doesn't collect the prey from my animal traps!

Horse is not my constant companion. D Walker is just as fast and I'm filthy rich in the game so no point of "horsing" around.

Return to ACC, or via horseback. I rarely use vehicles unless I'm not interested in sneaking around or using Stealth Camo, at which point I take a BTR so enemies don't instantly recognise me as I go by, usually.

I started off using D-Horse to go everywhere but eventually the repetitiveness got to me and I started abusing the return to ACC function, especially for Side Ops. It got so bad eventually I just landed in the red zones and blew places to pieces in order to complete the Side Ops located nearby. Learned my lesson pretty quickly not to try to land in the late game "Destroy the blah blah unit" missions though, lol. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ pink helicopters.

I used the cardboard box travel system religiously in Africa. Not so much in Afghanistan though, since the locations they dumped those were usually unfavourable for moving around or staying hidden. It was great for getting to that damn white villa in the jungle in Africa, though.

But yeah mostly I return to ACC and use D-Horse now. D-WALKER too dodgy to use, sometimes it refuses to stop, other times it drifts around like it is drunk.

Also, I'd like to point out how useless the fuel upgrade for the helicopter is. It does not speed up any "enter mission" time, you'll always arrive around 00:16 mission time, even at the highest rank. It pretty much only effects how fast he arrives, the difference between about 00:28 in game minute second things, and 00:11 in game second minute things. For the cost, which goes from 1000 up to 48,000, it's kinda not worth it. Until you've beaten the game and got all the R&D stuff done, anyway. I always kept him on the Rank 3 version that only cost 6000 to summon.
