🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Pacific Drive supports DLSS and FSR. The Olympic Exclusion Zone’s effects are heavy — turn this on first at 1440p and up.
Volumetric Fog QualityMedium+6% FPS
The Zone’s ever-present mist and anomaly haze — the heaviest setting in the game. High→Medium is a big win in storms.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness on the car and world. Nearly free if it fits your VRAM.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution — your headlights cast dynamic shadows at night, which is where this costs most.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Anomaly particles, electrical arcs and storm debris. Lowering helps exactly when the Zone gets chaotic.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
The Pacific Northwest forests lining every road.
View DistanceHighbaseline
Draw distance down the long forest roads. Lowering causes pop-in ahead of the car.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, grain and the retro screen effects. Cheap to lower.
