We saved your saves! Pacific Drive Hotfix Version 1.13.1 is available to download now on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S | X.
Version 1.13.1 - Highlights
[p]Today’s hotfix is laser focused on a few issues reported by the community this week! We’ve tackled the save loading issue, an inventory system bug, and some scary crashes caused by rogue garage elements.[/p][p]Before we get into the patch notes themselves, we do want to address a concern around file size that you’ve all expressed to us over the last few weeks, namely how large the update file sizes appear to be on PC and Console whenever a new patch or update to the game happens.[/p][p]To speak on it at a high level, sometimes patching the game involves a re-organization of the files and information that make up the entire game - it’s not possible to just pick and choose which ones are updated, and for safety, it’s easiest to deliver that re-organized structure in the way you’ve been experiencing. A result of this is that the updates themselves appear larger, and take more time to download and install. The good news is that your install size for Pacific Drive won’t increase, outside of content added to the game like the Whispers in the Woods Expansion.[/p]
Bugs and UX Hotfixes
- [p]For our players on PC - we’ve fixed the issue where players could indefinitely hang on loading screens while attempting to load into a saved game or in some loading transitions.[/p][list]
- [p]We’ve fixed this by making adjustments to some build process changes introduced in Version 1.13.0 that were intended for optimization purposes. This has resolved the save game issue, and maintained the improvements made to the overall gameplay experience.[/p][/*]
- [p]This would occur after the “Mysterious Signal” mission, or after the last mission in the DLC[/p][/*]
- [p]This had the chance to permanently break saves if the player’s autosave occurred at the same point as the crash - so we wanted to take care of it quickly.[/p][/*]
