Personally I kinda like the whole no fast traveling thing. Kinda like how Dragons Dogma was, even the most minor quest felt like a full on expedition.

But yeah, the saving thing pretty much makes it so I take no risks whatsoever. As in, I'm pretty much permanently holed up in Red Rocket instead of going out to Diamond City for much xp.
I mean, there's a certain appeal to the "your fuckups have actual consequences" thing, but combined with the fuckhuge damage enemies do it just makes me huddle in a corner instead of going out and enjoying the massive open world RPG.

The thing is, you could see the problem with no fast travel in Dragon's Dogma in the endgame when you had to just trek halfway across the gameworld for extended periods of time.

The problem with Fallout 4 is that it's not been designed with no fast travel in mind. It's big and getting to places takes yonks. At first it's fine and dandy but later on it will become grating.

It's why mods that removed fast travel from Fallout 3 gave you fast travel merchants at settlements, from which most quests were easily reachable after a reasonably long hike. Or better yet, Witcher 3's fast travel which gave you a point-to-point fast travel in settlements and some points on the map along with a horsey to get you places quickly-like.

Fallout 2/tactics had working vehicles, would be nice to have corvega/ highwayman/ bike.
But maps/ game engine were not designed with this in mind, so it would be ugly and buggy.

I think I broke codsworth. he is now a protectotron

[NullForceOmega]

I think a motorcycle would be reasonable, maybe a small truck (for moving power armor/salvage.)\

It could be done well it the time and effort were put into it, after all, New Vegas got some very impressive vehicles.

Personally I'd like a horse sized Giddyup Buttercup. Or a cyberhorse. Or just a plain old mutated horse.

Brahmins would be nice too.
You now what? Let me ride Deathclaws into battle. It will be glorious.

Currently working on a BRILLIANT PLAN^TM to get to the Corvega Factory, in power armor, without burning all my cores on the trek there.

Specifically, had dogmeat eat all my cores, so I can SLOOOOOWLY walk out to the nearby bed, then have him regurgitate them for maximum murdering.

[Rolan7]

You can also just fast travel, doesn't use cores.  Unless you're doing the hardcore mode or something.

I don't know if core consumption is increased in survival, but as long as you don't sprint, crouch (usure), jump (also unsure), or use your light you can basically cross the map with a single core.

[Burnt Pies]

Cores are burned by anything that uses action points; VATS, Sprinting, Jetpacking and weapon bashing being the ones I recall off the top of my head

[SOLDIER First]

Jumping and taking damage, too.

Using it for what it's intended.

Survival, yeah.
Anyway, did my plan, but as noted, probably didn't need to. Barely did anything to that core, even using it on the return trip. Had 5 in total too.
