Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced locks fast travel behind an early story checkpoint, so you cannot use it right away.
Fast travel in Black Flag Resynced unlocks after you finish This Tyro Captain mission in Sequence 3. Once that story mission is done, you can use the world map to jump to synced viewpoints, the Jackdaw, and other unlocked locations much faster.
What’s This Tyro Captain mission in AC Black Flag Resynced
This Tyro Captain is the mission that closes out Sequence 3 in AC Black Flag Resynced. It’s a major turning point in the early game. By the time you reach it, Edward already has the Jackdaw and a quartermaster.
Edward and the crew sail to Abaco Island in this mission so they can gather the resources they need to keep moving forward. Once you land, investigate the abandoned camp, track down the problem on the island, and hunt the ocelots that are causing it. This quest also introduces an important upgrade loop. After you skin the ocelots, Edward can craft a Pistol Holster, and Adewale rewards him with a second pistol afterward.
How to use fast travel in AC Black Flag Resynced
To use fast travel in AC Black Flag Resynced, you need to open the world map and highlight a location you have already unlocked. The main fast travel targets are synchronized viewpoints that turn yellow after you climb and sync them.
After highlighting the destination, hold the correct input to travel there. On the controller, that is Triangle on PlayStation or Y on Xbox. PC players need to press the Space button.
What are the best places to fast travel to
The most useful fast travel points are synchronized viewpoints, because they give you a clean way to jump across the map without sailing every time. Your ship, the Jackdaw, is also a useful fast travel target, which helps when you want to return to your vessel quickly.
Named locations and certain discovered areas can be fast traveled to once unlocked. If you want the map to become easier to navigate, sync viewpoints whenever you pass one. That gives you a wider network of travel points and saves a lot of time later in the game.
It’s also smart to grab nearby viewpoints while you are already on the island where the story sends you. In the meantime, make sure to check how to find Blackbeard’s Treasure Chest and get the Pirate Captain Outfit in Black Flag Resynced.
