How many fast travel points are there in the DLC? ONe thing that annoyed me about Zombie Island was that it always put you at the very beginning of the island, making it very annoying to get back to where you were with the quests.

Does the Secret Armory have more than one fast travel point? I would expect it to because of its size, but I haven't heard anything about such a topic.

Unfortunatly no. i was slightly annoying in the Zombie island, but even more annoying now. Every time you enter the game, you start back at T Bone junction, often having to traverse long car sections to get wherever you want to go. Its really annoying tbh, hurting an otherwise great DLC (other than the lack of main game scaling to 61, which also hurts the dlc a TON). Every time to enter the game, you have to spend 5-20 minutes going to where you left offf last time, depending where you were.

So no, there are none. And yes, as its bigger than Dr Neds (by a lot) its a much bigger problem

What were they thinking? They should really put more New-U posts in the DLC.

agreed, i dont mind travelling to and from a destination 1 or 2 times, but to constantly have to do it (and usually a longer journey) every time you want to return to t-bone junction or have to quit the game, gets VERY tedious

Wow, I bought the DLC and played a bit, and the lack of fast travel is not good at all. The quests are detracted from by the extremely large distances between locations without a quick way to move across the map, which mares an otherwise extremely well done piece of DLC.

I havn't bought the dlc yet cause I am still a bit behind on borderlands but this news is pretty dissapointing. My only real gripe about Zombie Island was the lack of fast travel and now I come to find the new dlc is even worse as far as that goes. I really don't understand why they would do that, I don't know any gamer who would welcome lack of fast travel so what the hell are they thinking? Is this still a must purchase or does this problem detract from the game that much?

I think this is the essential piece of DLC at this point, but you'll either have to play it in long bursts or do all the quests you have at one end of the area to not get peeved about the fast travel.
