Default Map travelling

First of all i'd like to say that I love map travelling but there are some small things that make life incredibly hard for people with slow pc's.

For example:
I'm standing in gate of madness and i want to go to lutgardis conservatory,
1- i map travel out of the torment (30 seconds)
2- i map travel to kaineng (3 minutes)
3- i map travel to Luts (30 seconds)

This has taken me AGES just to travel to a simple location.
Is it that difficult to just make a kind of system which enables u to travel directly? I'm talking about:
(map travel: insert location you want to travel to:............ 'TRAVEL')
and then u can save locations the same way u save templates

So plz sign this so life will be made easier for the people with slow pc's
thx in advance

Or you can upgrade your computer. If it takes that long to load, it's really time for some new hardware, or a brand new system.

Or they could just put all the Town outpost of other regions in the boat travel icon.

I don't mind map traveling as it is. I think it's already very fast and responsive. Play the game at a more relaxed pace--it's only 3 minutes, don't sweat it. Far less if your PC is more up to task with the requirements. I recently had to reinstall GW and now every old outpost or area I go into needs to be loaded. If it takes a little too long, I just minimize the game and read something or look at a webpage.

The great thing about GW is that it's so easy to multi-task while it's running!

Your travel time is effected by how populated the other location is, and by whether or not you have downloaded the information for that location yet.

Most people travel quite fast to a location within just a few seconds!

My advice is to use that code in your exercutable that downloads all contentto your hard drive.
