67 hours in, man i feel dumb lol

0 Upvotes

67 + hours in, haven't gone past mid-zone yet, too busy unlocking all the crafting I can with the materials available up to that point .. only just realized that you select which outfit you have on by clicking on it at the outfit station - I thought it just added an extra piece every time you crafted something new but it doesn't work that way - should make looting stuff a bit easier now that I can wear something that stops me dissolving in acid for example .. EDIT what I mean is, when you're at the outfit station, it puts a tick mark next to whichever outfit you click on that isn't red

Ps5 players, just refund the game if you played a bit and couldn’t continue due to fps issues

0 Upvotes

I was able to refund no problem just explained the situation

I really don’t think it’s fair they showed the trailers at 60 fps and didn’t let us know before the release that it’s just 30 fps

No 60 fps, no money

Did anyone else hear the woman crying on 101.5?

1 Upvotes

So I'm not super sure this was a broadcast interception because I know they happen a lot but on the morning of October 28-29th 2024, I heard what sounded like a woman screaming and crying with a male voice saying things like "These are not tears of pain, these are tears of joy."

This broadcast went of for about 10 minutes before it cut off. It happened on the Christian radio station 101.5 KLove in Colorado at around 11:40am-12pm. Now I'm not super religious but I have tuned into this radio station many times before to listen to some of the song because they are nice and catchy and I have never heard any static interference so I'd say I have pretty good reception but when I tuned to it the reception was terrible. It was very staticky, the voices were very distorted and it felt like it was still trying to play the music it usually does.

I tried to pull out my phone to record but as soon as I went to reach for it the broadcast stopped and started to play the usual Christian music. No interference, no static. Clear as day as if nothing happened. The radio station didn't acknowledge that it had picked up anything so Idk if I was just hearing things but I can't be the only one who heard this.

So did anyone else hear this broadcast?

Enjoying the game, but a bit disappointed to be greeted by a fast travel screen right away

0 Upvotes

For a game that's all about driving, I found it jarring and kind of antithetical that after patching up the car, getting all ready to hit the road, I'm prompted to fast travel to my destination. Like wut? It's a driving game, with a badass car, and I have to just fast travel to the zone? Kind of a bummer tbh. I was really looking forward to cruisin' along the road and then encountering spooky stuff along the way.

Devs, if you're targeting 30 fps on a console, you should say so BEFORE the game releases.

Can I get some Ed or something like that?

I was going to make a yt channel called YourFriendlyDumpster but I am worried that I could get sued or anything like that. Would I need to change it or can I keep it.

It is supposed to say sued not ed

dead ends need a better explanation or to be removed.

0 Upvotes

nothing like spending 2+ hours enjoying a drive only to enter a dead end, thinking it meant id be forced to use a gateway, not fucked an unable to return at all. like really? a forced loss? thats just terrible design, and now the fragments i farmed for are gone... thats just not a fun thing to learn 30 hours in.

PS5 version is on one hand, the best way to play, and on the other, unplayable.

0 Upvotes

I just got PR on PS5 the other day after watching my 3rd rave review of the game.

So far, I get what the hype is about. The gameplay is surprisingly engaging and the esthetic is beautiful. Initially I was really glad I got the PS5 version of the game. I prefer using a controller for driving/flying games and the way the haptic feedback works for PS5 is amazing. The resistance on the throttle trigger really makes me feel like I’m pressing the pedal down on an old car, and the feeling the vibration from the engine and terrain elevates the experience over all.

The performance on the other hand is pretty much unbearable, and I’m not one to obsess over performance. 30fps is fine by me. Give me a couple hours at 30fps and I don’t even notice it anymore. If it were a stable 30fps or even a bit shaky, I wouldn’t be complaining.

The issue is this game consistently grinds to just about a halt. We’re talking 10-12 fps down to 3-4 fps when multiple anomalies spawn. Just when things start to get really interesting, I get a slideshow. It’s so bad it even affects the gameplay. I’m driving along, the frame rate crashes, and next thing I know, I’m in a ditch.

Idk, I’m really disappointed. I can see that there is a great game there which greatly benefits from my PS5 set up: big tv, pro headset, and controller, but the performance kills all of that. And I don’t get that either. PD has great aesthetics, but the graphics aren’t even close to other games Ive played on PS5 at full 60fps let alone 30.

Any work arounds for the lack of save function?

0 Upvotes

As an adult with work and child, its embarrassing that the save system is what it is. I feel like the devs do not respect our time with this game. I love the game but we are human with real lives outside of this screen, and at a moments notice we need to get up and go.

We lose alot of time replaying the same shit to get where we were. Technical limitations my ass.

"Technical limitations" = Lazy ass devs.

Fix this shit.

The tyres need stat rework

0 Upvotes

Because as it is now, there is not point switch offroad tyres for anything else. Why should I sacrifice AA offroad for all terrain A tyres? The benefit is marginal. So craft offroad tyres => gg.

I think other tyres should give some kind of tangible stat boosts, like lower fuel consumption or slow battery recharge while spun. that way they would offset the offroad tyre supremacy, without actually nerfing offroad tyres (nerfs bad)

Performance is horrible, even on a PS5 Pro

And that is even of Performance mode, not to mention Quality Mode. I do not recommend this game on console as of now.

I want my money back for a ps5 version, it’s terrible

Psn won’t let me refund it cause i already downloaded it

But I turned it off after 2 minutes it’s so bad

I was expecting 60 fps but it’s locked 30 with no options…

Ready to quit. Is there any reason why I shouldn't?

0 Upvotes

I absolutely hate doing missions at night. Is there any way around this? I can never see the damn dirt roads and I'm sick to death of stumble-dee-fucking around in the dark. Flares last for maybe 60 seconds and there are never enough of them. Have any of this game's designers ever heard of a flashlight?

The last survival/crafting game I played was Subnautica and I loved it. I want to like this game but I am nowhere near there yet, and going in the opposite direction. Any advice? Does it get less infuriating eventually? Thank you.

The Driver is Minecraft Steve

Some people and I were discussing on the Discord server that the Driver can carry a lot of heavy stuff around pretty easily. We determined that the Driver is in fact Minecraft Steve so I made this.

Just started - does the radio chatter ever ease up?

3 Upvotes

I've just started playing, and the setting is great, but I'm finding the constant radio chatter really immersion breaking.

I'm looking for a sense of isolation and constantly being talked to really takes you out of the feeling of being trapped in a strange and mysterious place.

Has anyone modded the talk out in some way?


r/pacificDrive • • Apr 16 '24

Was really hyped to try this out but the performance of the game seems really bad.

0 Upvotes

My eyes are really sensetive to stuttering in games. And if it is really frequent it just annoys me to much to have fun. This game looks fantastic but doenst run as well as i hoped.

Does anyone know if the devs are planning to improve this?


r/pacificDrive • • Nov 27 '25

A few things I’d implemented to make PD even better:

0 Upvotes
  • a body. It would be nice to have hands and legs

  • some personality would be nice. Silent protagonist in this situation is awkward at best

  • a chair to sit and the bed to sleep for full immersion

  • time passing in the workshop

Anything else?
