If it works like " teleporting along road unt you hit the obstruction. then you could set an ambush, and you can also hire mercenarys to protect you on your travels!

Wow, thats pretty cool

I'm so excited for something I don't have time to play...

Booked some time off work, guess I'll just put it toward getting my Haven 1.0 affairs in order and play unreal world. Not a huge deal
But I'm definitely made of salt right now

If mechanics/players are same as in haven not gonna happen. Some 1000 uac titan gonna ambush roads 24/7 and make all noobs ragequit.
Also people would abuse this and make death traps that you cant get out and youre basically doomed no matter what stats. Possibilities are endless.

I don't think you'll be able to "stop" someone along the road any more than you can intercept someone in between 2 crossroads in current Haven, just think of the end of the road as the outer crossroad and as you extend the road the crossroad moves.... You will however be able to camp the end of a road same as an xroad. This is my guess anyway.

We actually implemented road-travel just the other day. So far it's very similar to what Potjeh initially proposed, in that milestones simply give you the option to fast-travel to the other end of the road, given that there are no obstacles on the way. If there are, you'll be stopped there. (It's not entirely complete yet however, as we haven't yet decided exactly what to do with travel-weariness.)

Someone want to explain why we're hyped over things that make this game even more time consuming?

I get it, alt spam was a problem. How am I going to play with my friends if I have no means of finding them?

The adolescents and unemployed in the big factions have all the time to become the masters of this world, but those with responsibilities will, like always, be left behind.

Teleportation, while buggy and messy all around, was productive and useful. I hope you planned this well, lorb.

Releases right on my birthday.

I don't know why they didn't simply give paved/road terrain a double or 3x speed bonus. Be you walking, running, carting or horsback riding you would be traveling at 3x speed. other games have it like this and it works great. The concept of "teleporting" along a road just sounds stupid to me, unless there's some sort of graphical treatment of the journey.
