"Fast Travel Failed" - Persistent Bug even in the Open World

  • What is your character name in New World: FarmoKiwi

  • What server/world did you experience your issue on: Abaton

  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: Not able to Fast Travel. Every time i try to fast travel from Open World to Houses, it says “Fast Travel Failed”. Same it applies when i try from towns/shrines to fast travel elsewhere. I’m forced to die every time if i want to fast travel.

  • Is this a bug or an exploit: annoying bug

  • (if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: not able to move throughout the map as i’m supposed to

  • (if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: No, i’m logging off because i cannot tolerate to run through the entire map

  • (if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced:

  • What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: i have no idea. I was fast travelling through shrines and houses and got the glitch “Fast travel failed” after immediately trying to fast travel again once i reached my house. Since then, it kept going. I always, always get the bug of “Fast Travel Failed” when i try to fast travel after i used the “House recall”. But this time the bug persisted even in the Open World not just once as always and was applied to everything, even open shrine travels (and yes, it always gives me the first time i try to fast travel after a house or Inn recall the bug “Fast Travel Failed”)

  • When did this happen? Tonight, CET midnight between 13th and 14th of July 2022

This happened to me today. Fast travel would fail instantly, instead of after the few seconds the animation takes. Dying fixed it, like you said, so thanks. I hope this gets patched soon.

EDIT: I just realised the two times it has happened it was right after talking to my faction vendor (covenant) in Mountainhome Outpost (Shattered Mountains). Maybe that’s why?

Thank you for reporting this issue, it looks like others have experienced this as well. I will forward your report to the Dev team!

EDIT: fast travel is working again after AFK disconnect

This is getting worse - can’t recall to any home, recall to inn, nor fast travel to any location - town, shrine, event - keeps giving error fast travel failed

I have this happen to me constantly and it’s usually after I’m returning back to the open world from doing an OPR. It’s like my feet are under the surface when I load back in. I have to log out and clear temporary files to clear the bug. That always fixes it until it happens again.

Thank you for the additional information! I am so sorry that this bug is getting worse. :disappointed:

@PrinceFin - it’s great to know that there is a temporary workaround for this bug, but I’m sorry that you have this issue as well! We appreciate the information.

for additional info - for me has nothing to do with OPR - has to do with flagging pvp

I just had this… For me, it makes the game unplayable.

To give info: i havent done flagging, i havent done opr, i havent been in an instance. I hope this helps

You dont have to clear temp files or anything, just log out for 3 minutes and then log back in to reset your character state. This has been a bug for quite some time, you better get used to it and see it as part of the game you bought for real money, I highly doubt they will be able to fix it.

Second time this has happened to me now. Just logged off for well over 5 minutes to fix and it didn’t help, I immediately got stuck in the loop of fast travel failing AGAIN.

Seems to only ever happen to me when I log off for the night at mountainhome outpost.

This happens to me fairly regularly for whatever reason in mountainhome. I haven’t noticed a connection to porting in from an instance as I rarely get pulled in and usually pull others however, for whatever reason I’ve only had this happen if I try to port out of mountain home an donce it happens the only fix as staited log out, repair files, then it works.

any fix for this ? relog didnt help

tried unstuck option, doesn’t work

tried to respawn, doesn’t work…

@Aenwyn
@Luxendra
what is this ??

This is a top priority issue we’re currently working on! Not ideal, but if this occurs, logging off and staying offline for 3+ minutes should allow for Fast Travel to work again when you log back in.

correct.

This is happening for months! That’s how you guys deal with “top priority issue”.

If I had those SLA to fix issue at my job, I wouldn’t have a job. You guys are really something else.

this is a generic copy paste reply

This is game breaking with merges. Logging out on orefena often results in waitin 10 minutes in que.

I would suggest queing release of online space. Allow a player a grace period to log back in and skip the que back into their original spot. Like 5 minutes.

Technically speaking this would only make the first person wait the buffer after that true open space would open at the same rate as it does now.

I had this problem happen when my character has more than 1 piece of freedom perk armor on. if i take off gear I can travel with out any issues

Happend right now to me too in CoS.
