Is there a way to increase travel speed?

When walking using the world view the speed is very, very slow. I don't mind the in-game days it uses for this, or the random encounters, it just takes very long to go from one point to another.

It would be nice if the devs add an increase speed option - hold shift or something.

There is a car in the game, though it isn't obvious and involves a lot of murder, unless you find a workaround...

Yeah the world speed travel is a bummer, seems dated.

I agree. Speed on the overhead map is just obsecne. Sometime I try to examine my perk tree while Walking

The speed is as it because that's how the game works in the begining, was the same for the Fallout games
The thing is that you are supposed to explore the map but it should not be easy, with the car the game changes a lot and you can even do individual quests
The movement speed is ok, they just need to add more survival elements and more random encounter types

An option to increase the speed of time on the world map wouldn't hurt. You would move faster but in gamne time would also go faster. It would just end up saving player time.

Exactly. I wouldn't mind a small boost to jog speed either.

There wasn't nearly as much backtracking in those games. F1 you pretty much progressed south.

It was a lot easier to get the highwayman in F2 than the car here.
No murder involved.
No level gating for help with your slaughter.
It isn't in an out of the way place.
It's almost like they didn't want you to wander the wastes so slowly for so much of the game?!

The fallout games definitley were not as awkward and clunky as the travel speeds are here. The random encounters in this game are a bit of a bummer as well, I remember encountering low level enemies in Fallout and being able to some experience points and items for bartering. I have only encountered weak insects and tough raiders for the most part in Atom

Battle Speed seems to be in the options now but not for overall game speed.

I just use Cheat Engine to change the game speed. Might tax your processor though, so keep an eye on the temps.

There's a lot of backtracking in the game, I personally don't like the idea of wasting time going back and forth for nothing. QOL changes in-game would be very appreciated by most.

Agree! Very much so!
Like in Total War-games, pressing space should speed up the walking on the strategic map :)

Okey, so now i got the car... and it is going so much faster! Weeeooh!
