I already posted this in wipe thread on general chat, but I think it deserves better.
I didnt see this topic anywhere.

Can we maybe increase run speed just a tad? its painful running around, and I dont  think a slight increase would hurt PVP battles too much, Im guessing thats the primary reason, if people ran the speed they could in the classic fallout you wouldnt be able to click on them
 
2nd please increase world map travel?  that's just painful, watching my dot travel on a map for 18 minutes isnt exactly my idea of fun.  But maybe the bulk of people who play this game are college students? and like to multitask while you study? I dont know

First point is debatable, I don't have any problems with running/walking speed.
Second point: buy a car.

@foonlinecurious:
"It is good as it is."

In my opinion it looks like a chat to a stone-wall to ask for better balance of travel speed. Buy a car or change a game.

[Kilgore]

Hmm. Strange. I wrote 2 times a post that world map speed is good as  it is and doesn't need to be changed, because it's falloutish, and my posts disappear.. Maybe it should be changed then? 

[Nice_Boat]

I also think that the speed is good as it is. Yeah people complain and go make themselves a sammich or alt-tab when travelling, but it's fine as long as it stays in line with the true-hardcore spirit of survivalism which of course implies that travelling is harsh.

[maszrum]

1) wm speed is good as it is
2) buy a car

[Michaelh139]

Agility and Endurance should have effects on running speed.  Really.  But until 3D this cannot be changed I believe.

[foonlinecurious]

Your really comfortable sacrificing game play for realism ( it actually taking a long time to travel from place to place)
?

why not  take one step farther to realism and perma kill your character when you die hardcore style

[Slaver Snipe]

Trolling your own thread? Entertaining. I know that i personally prefer the current WM speed so i can actually care about the difference in having a character with 150% outdoorsman compared to one with 40%, besides just dodging encounters you can tell a rather large difference in speed. Or as posted above, buy a car instead of never getting one like the previous wipe...(or was it the one before that can't remember)

I think worldmap speed only serves one gameplay thing at the moment: preventing striketeams running from town to town in few minutes without cars.
Also striketeams returning after death in less then 5 minutes without cars.

I think there is some room to increase the speed - mostly by improving perks that affect it.  I really doubt we will ever see people zooming about the entire world map in a few seconds again though.

Solar this is the worst players can expect :>

And now some rage:  even now, i keep reeding like "buy a car" "use a train", well i used a train. For example i am doing quest in a town, i go from vc to sf to do quest, if i go random to train station i wait for train on average 3 minutes (6 real minutes is maximum, 0 minimum), then i ride from vc to sf, it takes about 3 minutes (since you need three rides on your way from vc to sf), ok then i reached my destination, i did a quest, or i made a trade with needed alt npc i need to get back, but wait a minute, the train leaves almost as soon as it arrives, so i need to wait 6 real time minutes again, ok finally train arrives, and another 3 minutes journey from sf to vc. You call that a feature? travelling fastest way possible which takes 15 minutes on average if you live in vc and want to do business in sf (and in that 15 minutes you cannot do anything, so these 15 minutes are just 15 minutes of boredom).

What about cars, well fuck cars, if i want to level up for example, i get no encounters with car, ok i can leave car and then walk on foot on my destination where i want to level up, ok i die, i respawn in nowhere and happy journey Jack back to your car with this brand feature of travelling.

And dont say travelling speed is ok, because its not. But to objective i should say that i see some good things as well. Way back then when i played towns had 0 people, ncr had all, now i encounter much much more people in other towns.

[Lexx]

You call that a feature?

Jup.

Of course, if you don't like it, you can instead go by foot too. Nobody is forced to use anything.

[Lizard]

Hmm, wouldn't a person high on Jet run faster than usual across the desert, like, trying to take off in his delirium?

[vedaras]

features should make game fun and entertaining and i dont see any of that in travelling
