I understand about the travel...but it is a necessary part of the game. The diamonds are all over as you have found out. Travel makes finding these easier, (unless you have used the 999 diamond trainer option),and at some point we have to decide how much of the game we remove to facilitate reaching the end of the game. I hope I dont come off as judgmental...Im speaking from my own personal experience. I have (in other games) used so many cheats that I blew through a game in just an hour or two....just obsessed with reaching the end of the game I forgot about enjoying the actual "playing" of the Game ! Anyway...just my two cents. jwill58

i just wish they built in a quick travel option like in oblivion or just some faster way to get back to the main town since 90% of the missions involve you going 10 miles away from there and then you get shot at the entire way back.
Fast travel to safe houses would be really nice but that's probably something better accomplished by a mod than a trainer.
And don't get me wrong, I understand the part about finding the diamonds. The thing is, I already have the three weapons that I want and don't feel like looking for diamonds any more! It wouldn't be half as bad if I would encounter something new and interesting while I'm out driving around. The missions have all of the fun stuff and I want to have fun!
Yeah yeah I follow the railroads and keep the the middle of the desert. But for some reason there's always a few people with the rage virus driving around out there to ruin my fun.
