Logging in far from camp

[LadyMaal]

I realized that when I log for the night the next day I am not in the same area. Just now I logged in and need to go to my camp but I think it might take me nearly an hour to get there.

I understand there is a fast travel? Do you have to be a certain level and is it expensive?

You can fast travel at any level.

The price depends on how far you have to go. Example, if you're going from Gaptooth to Saint Denis (across the whole map) it will be over $10 dollars. If you're only going from Gaptooth to Blackwater (half the map) it will be around 5 or more & if you going from Blackwater to Strawberry or the next town over it will be a few dollars.

To buy the fast travel for your camp, you have to be a certain rank. Think you unlock the fast travel at your cam in the 60's rank.

Instead of traveling to your camp you can try to move & pitch your camp closer to you, in the same area you are in. You can bring up your quick menu / select camp / select set camp location / then select the area you are in. Example if you are in Blackwater you can pitch a camp in Great Plains or Tall Trees.

 Sorry not sure what button it is for pc to access the quick menu.

I tried to access fast travel and it said i don't have enough money.

but..... I have gold bars in addition to my $.73. Why won't it take a gold bar and give me change?

Gold & cash are separate currency. You mainly use cash for everything.

Something you can only use cash, like fast travel. Others items you can only use gold, like buying certain clothing items, & some items you can use both, like buying weapons.

I thought gold was used for everything and I got 'change back'   How do I get cash?

Do missions for example story missions and stranger missions. You can also do PVP but something tells me you may struggle at first. Take the easy route learn the game first.
