Does this game support playing with a steering wheel?

Has anyone tried playing this game using a steering wheel?

I own a Logitech G923, I think playing Pacific Drive with a steering wheel must be very immersive!

But I don't know how well the game supports steering wheels and if it supports force feedback.

It doesn't support steering wheels I'm afraid.

That's my biggest concern, and it would be great to be able to support it.

Doubtful it will be supported without a mod. It's probably not supported because there's a decent amount of walking.

So my idea is to switch between gamepad and steering wheel, use the steering wheel when driving, and seamlessly switch to gamepad operation when walking.

[foolexia]

That's a good idea, though it might be a challenge to program in. I'm no expert by any means, it just sounds like a challenge to program.

I'd like to try it out, the concept of Pacific Drive appeals to me, but I'm worried about buying it and finding out he doesn't support the steering wheel, that would make it a lot less fun for me.

Can't really relate as I've never used one. But I can understand not wanting to play a flying game without a flight stick.

The fact they have released a driving game without steering wheel support is absurd.

Fishing North Atlantic supports a wheel. That's how silly this is.

Imagine wanting to drive a car with a steering wheel. The audacity of some people!

You could just use mouse and keyboard for walking and then wheel for driving.

Every driving game I play I navigate menus and such with mouse and then drive with wheel. This game looks super fun but I dont know if I want to get it if it doest have wheel support

I still suspect that it wouldn't be easy to program that in. It's probably more difficult to do a gameplay transition than gameplay to menu.

There are many games which has loads of walking in between actually driving your vehicle and still has support for driving wheels. My summer car, Mon Bazou to name a few. Pacific Drive is made in Unreal 4, driving wheel support is literally a plugin devs can download for free and implement into their game.

Okay, had no idea of that given I've never been involved in making a game. I'm just working off a layman of laymen understanding of things

Yes, while it's possible to play a racing game without a steering wheel, and a flying game without a flight stick, it's much more immersive and gives a better experience to play if you have one, especially if I have the relevant hardware on hand to use, so why not?
