Players in Saints Row only need to access the map on their phone, move their icon over the desired destination, then press X/A/LMB to fast travel to a compatible place they’ve already unlocked (depending on platform). After a brief loading screen, the player will then quickly travel there. When you’re not in the middle of a mission, you can pretty much always do this, but it’s nearly never a choice when you are. Fast travel, while not requiring Saints Row money to be used, does require appropriate fast travel sites to be visited, and this is where problems start to appear. We mentioned below are the steps to unlock and use fast travel in Saints Row.
Steps to unlock and use fast travel in Saints Row
Unlock fast travel in Saints Row
Step 1: As you drive around Santo Ileso, your map will quickly become populated with a wide assortment of icons. One of these icons is for the Fast Travel Photo activity – it’s a golden diamond with a subway tram in the center. Step 2: Finding a Fast Travel Photo spot is only the first step in unlocking fast travel. The next step is to whip out your camera (assigned to Up on the directional pad for consoles) and snap a photo. Step 3: Figuring out what to take a picture of is simple. First, open your map. Then, hover over the Fast Travel Photo activity you’re interested in. This will pull up a description on the right side of the screen, along with an image of a unique landmark nearby. In the screenshot above, for example, you’re tasked with snapping an image of the El Dorado sign. Step 4: Take your own photo of the landmark, and you’ll unlock the location as a fast-travel spot. You might have to reposition yourself a few times to center the image in your camera, but the game will give you prompts to let you know if you’re too close, too far away, or if the image is blocked.
