Fast travel is a feature to travel instantly to a destination in Fallout , Fallout 2 , Fallout 3 , Fallout Tactics , Fallout: New Vegas , Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 .

Fallout , Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics [ ]

FO2 WorldMap

When stepping on the exit grid in any map, one will enter the world map . If one wants to get anywhere at all, fast traveling is required. Moving across the vast desert takes a varied amount of time based on the terrain; mountains cause slower travel, while deserts are easier to get through.

Driving in a vehicle, such as a Chryslus Motors Highwayman in Fallout 2 or a Brotherhood Hummer in Fallout Tactics , will increase one's fast travel speed, but only as long as there is gas in the tank.

Fallout 3 [ ]

Wasteland Map 1

Fast travel in Fallout 3 involves selecting a discovered location marker from the world map, upon which one can fast travel to. Any fast travel, be it from Raven Rock to Rivet City , or from Vault 101 to Megaton , will take one game hour to complete.

One cannot fast travel to locations that have not been formally discovered, and cannot fast travel while inside a location, while in the air (such as in the middle of a fall), while overencumbered or while in the vicinity of or fighting enemies.

Fallout: New Vegas [ ]

MojaveMapBW

Fast travel in Fallout: New Vegas is identical to that of Fallout 3 except in the time it takes to get to one's destination. The player character may also fast travel while overencumbered using the Long Haul perk. If one travels to a close destination, time passes in increments of 10 minutes, while farther destinations result in increments of hours. Holding a two handed weapon does not affect the time it takes to travel, but sneaking while fast traveling will increase the time it takes. One can only fast travel to locations already discovered and visited prior.

Fallout 4 [ ]

Fo4-pip-map

Fast travel in Fallout 4 is identical to fast travel in Fallout 3 , except that the game time increment during fast travel is dependent on the distance traveled, unless traveling to and from the Institute . Fast travel from opposite corners of the map takes about 14 hours game time at the default timescale of 20. Decreasing the timescale causes the fast travel to take much less game time (about 7 hours at timescale 10). The Sole Survivor can mitigate the traveling time by using the Institute as a jumping platform as it only takes one in-game minute to teleport to and from it. Fast travel (including via the Institute) is impossible while the player is overencumbered (and does not have the fourth rank of the Strong Back perk ) unless using a Vertibird .

There are five locations which allow fast travel to and from an interior location: the Railroad HQ , Home Plate , the Institute , the Mechanist's lair and Vault 88 .

In Survival mode , fast travel is only possible via Vertibird or the Institute. Additionally, while the player can still travel to the Institute from anywhere, the only location to which the player can travel from the Institute is the C.I.T. ruins .

Fallout 76 [ ]

West Virginia map

In Fallout 76 , the player character can fast travel for free to their C.A.M.P , a friend, a party member, or the C.A.M.P. of a party member, along with the following default locations: Vault 76 , Foundation , the Crater , the Whitespring Resort , Fort Atlas , the Rusty Pick , and The Rose Room . The player character can also fast travel -- at the cost of a small sum of bottle caps -- to other discovered locations, or any player C.A.M.P. that is not in their party. This cost is lowered for player characters under level 25 [1] or by equipping the Travel Agent perk. Fast travel can be initiated from both indoor and outdoor locations, unless there are enemies nearby in which case a 15 second timer is initiated and will automatically fast travel after that time, provided the player character doesn't get damaged. The timer is only triggered by proximity to hostiles, the player's combat status ([DANGER] or [CAUTION]) does not inhibit them from fast traveling.

How Does Fast Travel Work In ARK Survival Ascended?

Exploring the expansive world of ARK Survival Ascended is exhilarating for many players. Yet, there are occasions when reaching your destination swiftly becomes a priority, whether due to impatience or gameplay considerations such as safeguarding rare items. 

While fast travel is a common feature in various games, does ARK Survival Ascended offer such an option, and if so, how does it function? This question will be addressed below as we examine the presence of fast travel in ARK Survival Ascended and explore how this mechanic operates in the game.

ARK Survival Ascended Fast Travel: How It Works

As of the current writing, the fast travel system in ARK Survival Ascended is only partially functional. Essentially, players can fast travel between beds they own, but there's a significant drawback – all items are dropped during the fast travel process. Consequently, when spawning at the destination, players find themselves without access to their items and weapons, posing a considerable challenge for many players.

How To Fast Travel Currently only partial

To address this limitation, some players turn to mods that enable full teleportation or fast travel within the game. Among these, the Teleporters mod by seaofblood_xhui stands out, boasting tens of thousands of downloads and establishing itself as the most trusted mod for complete teleportation of both items and dinos in ARK Survival Ascended. While not a vanilla feature, it proves effective for those willing to experiment.

Alternatively, players can opt for flying mounts as an alternative to teleportation or fast travel. The game offers a variety of flying mounts with different speeds, allowing players to choose the dino that best suits their needs. Flying also introduces a range of mechanics to enhance the journey, such as gathering resources, picking up dinos, and discovering previously missed locations.

How To Fast Travel alternatives

Although this alternative doesn't match the convenience and speed of a dedicated fast travel feature, it serves as a decent substitute for now. Developers have hinted at ongoing content updates for the game, leaving the possibility open for a future introduction of a more robust fast travel system. As of now, fast travel remains a partial feature in ARK Survival Ascended. Any changes or updates to this feature will be promptly covered here, so consider bookmarking this article for future reference.

How to fast travel in Nightingale and make Portals

Here's how to fast travel in Nightingale and construct portals

Want to know how to fast travel in Nightingale? Much of Nightingale centres around the free exploration within the different Fae Realms. With so many combinations of Realm Cards available, it's easy to get lost and separated from your home realm, or 'Respite Realm' as it's otherwise called.

Below, we'll take you through how to fast travel in Nightingale as well as provide information on how to uncover Realm maps, place custom waypoints and craft your own Portals. See below for full details.

In this guide:

How fast travel in Nightingale

Other ways to travel quickly around nightingale, how to make a portal in nightingale.

Cover image for YouTube video

Standing next to a glowing Estate Cairn in Nightingale.

One of the most important tools for fast travel in Nightingale is the Estate Cairn . An Estate Cairn is a craftable structure that can be built at any of your settlements with 20 Rocks and 5 Stone Blocks . Once built, interact with your Estate Cairn to set it as a ' Respite ' - this will lock the Cairn in as your respawn point upon death and the location of your main settlement. You can only have one Respite per game across all the realms you visit, and this can be fast-travelled to from the main map.

Although you can build bases in whichever realm you like, the Abeyance Realm is the best option for beginners as it provides a somewhat safer starting zone and also contains Sites of Power structures, needed for plot progression.

If you decide to set a different Estate Cairn as your Respite, ensure you have a Portal with access to your old one so you don't loose access to that realm. More on contrusting Portals below.

Within each realm there will be a Fae tower that you'll need to climb to the top of and defeat waves of enemies to unlock. Once completed, it will highlight all the points of interest on your map to explore. As such it's usually a good rule of thumb to complete these first, to enable easier exploration across the different realms.

Another important way of getting around in Nightingale are the World Beacons . These are essentially custom waypoints that you can put on your map by right-clicking and selecting from a drop-down menu. These will make it a little easier to navigate the various Fae Realms if you haven't unlocked the Fae Tower and revealed the other points of interest on the map first. You can also use Stamps within the same dropdown menu to mark resources on your map that you wish to come back to.

To make running about in Nightingale a bit easier, another key method of traversal is the Umbrella . This can be crafted or looted and assigned to one of your hotkeys via the inventory menu. As well as providing shelter against heat in the Desert, the toughest starting biome in Nightingale , these Mary Poppins-inspired tools can be used to gently glide from heights. Just make sure you keep an eye on your stamina meter , as you will plummet quickly if it runs out before you've safely landed on the ground (though if you are running out of stamina, you can always put it away and open it up again just before hitting the ground to ensure a smooth and safe landing).

You can also use the right-click feature to dodge , which uses up a small portion of your stamina. This swift movement is useful if you find yourself swarmed by enemies and need to get some distance from them quickly.

A description of Portals in Nightingale.

The main ingredient for making a Portal in Nightingale is the Synchronous Lotus . You can find these in Chests at the top level of Fae Towers . As such, it's a good idea to prioritise these to craft more Portals in your Respite Realm.

To craft an initial Crude Portal, you'll also need the following ingredients:

  • Synchronous Lotus x1: Found within chests at the top of Fae Towers
  • Lumber x10: Made at a Saw Table with Wood Bundles
  • Ingot x7: Made at a Smelter from Ore
  • Wire x3: Made at a Brazier from 2 Ingots

Be sure to also focus on completing Sites of Power in the Abeyance Realm. These contain waves of enemies and Fae puzzles that, once completed, will unlock new Major Realm cards . Each Major card will set the destination of the Realm. You can then set the theme by inputting one of three Biome cards: Forest, Swamp or Desert. You can also add a Minor Card, which will apply certain environmental changes to the biome you picked.

Once you unlock new Realm Cards at Sites of Power, you can then create them at an Enchanter's Focus . Once created, put them into a Realm Card Machine next to a Portal.

Don't forget you can also rename Portals by pressing the 'E' key when interacting with them. It's a good idea to name your Portals so you can easily remember which Portal goes to which Realm and save yourself some time checking the machine interface each time.

That rounds off our guide to everything you need to know about fast travel and other traversal methods in Nightingale. For more Nightingale coverage, check out our guide on how to play multiplayer in Nightingale or see our magic wood adventures where the RPS team had a chance to sample Nightingale during a pre-launch playtest.
