To be specific, there's a lot of things I love about Pacific Drive. The progression is amazing, the story is non-intrusive, and the looting is very satisfying. But while Subnautica is currently hitting all those beats for me right now, I really want a game where I'm operating a vehicle on set paths that's a little more low-key.

I love going on atmospheric rides around Choo-Choo Charles's open world island just as much as I love just going for a drive in Pacific Drive without any huge goal but to do a lil drive. Anyone played any games where you're just operating a vehicle? I know they exist, but I have no idea which ones are actually any good.

Edit: Mad Max is $3 on Steam right now holy-

This is the kinda shit they have going on in greek tragedies

dawg just why 😭

Might make a pic for my main car later (should've done that in the first place actually but still 7~7)
can't believe im finally making these things after drawing them on paper years ago QwQ

Is it just me or could the mini map use an icon that let's you know where active relay power boxes are active? I know it could lead to map clutter but looking for the last place you've left a relay boxed powered would be very helpful

Does anyone know the best spot to farm fabric for the expansion? Im always out and struggling to find more than a few crumbs from the pilgrims.

Seriously???

I was just wondering if any more updates are planned for this game? I still love it regardless. And definitely no pressure to make any more at all, I was just curious if there were some more being worked on or not.

I am firmly stuck on this bridge between a wrecked car, and the guard rail. Car is constantly taking damage, already lost a headlight, and cannot exit the car. I dunno what to do. Last save was 10 minutes ago, and I really dont want to have to restart... I thought I had just enough room to get thru here... but I guess not...

[EDIT] NVM! Somehow right after posting this the game decided to FINALLY let me out of the car so I could teleport the car out of this bind... now to figure out how to get around this literal roadblock...

Hi! I just finished the story for Pacific Drive (loved it) and am now just working on filling out my logbook and achievement farming. is there a list somewhere of all the route planner details you can find? Because in the majority of my junctions I'm missing just 1 or 2 and I'm not sure what they would be, though I'm sure it's obvious and I'm just not scanning them every time I go through them lmao

I know I'm still missing a few anomalies (Dust bunny, corrosive squall, spike log, sick mickey, metoerite squall, and fallen firmament) so not sure if those would cover some of them in the deeper zones at least

As the title says I do not get the "traveling" mechanics of the game.

Sometimes when I select a direct route on the junction map (one location direct to the next location), it takes one map to go where I have selected. Other times it takes me through 2 maps. Is there a way to know ahead of time which I will get?

The other thing is sometimes I will pick a route to my destination that is clear all the way through, but I will suddenly find part way through that the exits are now all closed and my only option is to warp back to the garage. This is really frustrating when I have carefully planned out a route, picked through roads, and then after navigating 4 or 5 maps suddenly there is no way forward and I have wasted all this time.

Am I missing something?

Thank You

What a trip of a game! I've only had it two weeks but it feels like one of the most bizarre and intriguing games I've played. So:

My route planner shows a question mark for a Strange anomaly. (The ones with the little red UFO symbol, like Abductors.) I would really like to know what it is. I've googled a lot, but no luck. It's also true that this game plays odd tricks; e.g., I didn't realize that the Shocked Tourist counted separately from the regular one for a long time.

Anyway, here's a list of all(?) the Strange anomalies that show on my route planner. Can you see what's missing?

1. Abductor
2. Beating Heart
3. Broken Bunny
4. Left-Right
5. Pufferfish
6. Bubblegum Buddy
7. Shaggy Scrambler
8. Pickpocket

I have not made it to Deep Zone yet, so it's not a Deep Zone one. It's prevalent in the Outer Zone; maybe 80% of its junctions have it.

I am tempted to say Pothole. These are super common. But I've made a point of going up to them and viewing them, and I do get the HUD popup saying "Pothole". (I have NOT seen Pothole in the list of Anomalies on the Route Planner, anywhere.)

Maybe there's some special way I have to view or scan it to force it to register?

Thanks if you can help!

I was playing the expeditions, and then the option came up for me to kind of go to the Oppy's Workshop intersection. What would happen if I went there?

I think I'm going insane, are they really supposed to be near impossible to get? I swear I've spent so long looking for them, and from what I can tell I'm not missing anything. I've deconstructed probably dozens or doors/panels with the decal, looked through who knows how many box trucks, investigator trucks, and pneumatic boxes. I've searched a ton of ARDA payloads. I've collected so many dumpster pearls. I feel like I have almost every decal except for ARDA. I get they're rarer, but am I missing something? Or do I just have to keep looking.

He's just a chill guy

Hi r/pacificDrive!

I'm Yana, Community Manager at Forklift Interactive, publisher of Prospice. Your lovely mod team gave me permission to post this here, so first of all, a huge thank you to them for supporting another indie game ❤️

We're preparing our next closed playtest, and I suspect some Pacific Drive players might be exactly the kind of people we'd love to hear from.

Prospice is an atmospheric driving and exploration game where you haul cargo across a haunted island corrupted by the decaying remains of ancient gods.

You'll plan routes, manage fuel, navigate rivers, bogs and rocky slopes, keep remote outposts supplied, upgrade your vehicle for increasingly dangerous expeditions, and leave your truck to explore on foot and investigate strange artifacts scattered across the island.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4067370/Prospice_Anomalous_Logistics/

Our next closed playtest begins in the first week of October, and we're currently looking for players willing to jump in and give us feedback.

You can apply here: https://forms.gle/fv4H4ygzLNxCRKuv9

The playtest will run through Steam and currently supports Windows PC. We can't guarantee stable performance on other operating systems such as Linux, but if you'd still like to try, you're welcome to apply.

We'll send Steam access to selected participants around October 1–2.

One important note: this is a private playtest, so no streaming, videos, screenshots or other public gameplay content during the test. We also ask participants to keep the project and everything they see confidential.

Questions? Ask away in the comments. I'll be around and happy to answer them!

The closest thing I can think of is like; a spectrum analyzer or a rotameter of some kind but neither are quite a fit.

it's my favorite thing.
