Hardcore fast travel.

[IrishUnicorn]

Hey guys, is there finally something for hardcore mode fast travel? Lack of it does not change the difficulty in any way, it is just tedious after a while.

But it's actually faster to not fast travel. And you get to see and discover more when you're not fast traveling.

I have read that it might be the case with top tier horses, but I don't really have too much time for games, so when I fast travel I can go do something in the kitchen for example, I also enjoyed ambushes few years back, and remember that there were issues meeting large enemy groups without fast travelling, and who doesn't like to smack dozen of enemies at once :)

Fast travel in hardcore doesn't eliminate ambushes. for the most part if you are aware of your surroundings (and awareness is key to every part of this game) you can anticipate ambushes and either avoid them or stop and get off your horse and draw your sword and drink your potions and your Saviour Schnapps and go forward to meet the enemy on your terms, not their. And if you have Mutt he'll warn you ahead of time, as well.

I have heard people say that if you equip Pebbles correctly he/she is perfectly fine for the entire game. I prefer Kanthaka, myself.

Oh well, I'll try to play with a horse only if I won't be able to find anything to remedy it, thanks.

Fast Travel cannot be enabled during hardcore.

There is a cheat that will "teleport" the player, but this may cause bugs.

Yeah, if you don't know the right coordinates you could end up glitched into an unmovable object

Hardcore by definition means no fast travel. Trust me you won't miss it. The map isn't all that large and you'll discover a whole lot more. Just be aware of your surroundings. That giant windmill in the middle of the map is your friend.
