I will admit, I was a bit disappointed to hear that fast travel will be eventually be implemented in this game. One of the reasons I started to like Kenshi so much is because it didn't make things easy on you; but the fact that fast travel will be included has led to a little disappointment for me, because it just makes running around in the grand open wilderness completely unnecessary.
As a result, I propose to the development team to not allow fast travel in Hardcore mode.
Normal mode can still have fast travel, for those who like it soft. But the players who want a challenge should actually have a challenge. If given the option, one must use it, and that is why I propose limiting it from hardcore mode. See, even though I hate fast travel, I'm going to use it if it's available because I won't need to dedicate more time to travel. But, if it isn't there, then I have no choice but to play the game the hard way. The hardcore way.
So... yeah. No fast travel in hardcore mode
