Lack of drivers

[William_Peck]

I have 328 drivers and trucks.

At this point in the game there are no more drivers available to continue growing.

Question what do I have to do to get more drivers?

PSS thanks for the free trucks

You'll need a mod that adds extra drivers.

Thanks for responding

Is a mod that I use. Increases the total amount of drivers to over 500.

Furry_Freak thanks but it didn't work for me

I only hope the developers will get the number of drivers correct for all garages both issued and planned before the release of the new sectors. Otherwise it will be a waste of time and money to purchase. Thanks for the help

It has never been possible to fill every garage with drivers. And SCS has stated more than once, that there would be a resource impact, especailly for lower-end systems, if that many drivers were introduced into the game.

Thanks for the info I will start over and use the small garages.

then why should they put so many garages in the game which can not be filled by drivers

Don't fill every single garage with drivers. I only put 1 or 2 drivers in each garage. Plenty to go around.

That's a terrible excuse. People with lower end systems don't max out the graphics, but the option exists. If they can't handle the drivers, that's no reason to screw everyone else.

It's not an excuse. It's a fact of computation. The more drivers you hire, the more processing time needs to be given to calculating their progress.

And you're right, people with low-end systems don't max out the graphics, but the graphics settings don't creep up while they play, either.

You're not being screwed.

Hiring more drivers isn't "creeping up". If your FPS starts to drop, you stop hiring drivers. You're acting like it's a memory leak the player has no control over. The amount of drivers should be an option in the menu with a warning about performance impact. Problem solved. You know it, I know it.

Hiring more drivers would definitely have a creeping effect on the processing to be done as you play. And a non-savy player may not understand that it's the driver count pushing their computer harder. Warnings? Like the warnings about cranking up the graphics? Gotcha. ;)

And it's nothing to do with FPS. It has to do with CPU computing, not GPU display.

Not wanting to argue about it, was just letting folks know why it is the way it is.

Instead of trying to fill every single garage with drivers and trucks, just have a few large, full garages strategically placed. Buy other garages as you come across them, but keep them empty (or for storage of personal trucks) and just use them for fast travel. They come in handy for the WoT events where fast travelling is useful if you're pushed for time. Works for me.

DCMT is correct, everything you load on a computer ads up, 20 pictures of the mother in law, 100 icons, all the "un social" media, email, antivirus, Steam, back up, blue teeth, wiFi etc. etc. Then we load a game or two with all the bells & whistles & expect it to perform. more drivers would mean more overheads, a few more for variety could be handled, but a thousand or more, all working?? Yes a dedicated gaming pc built & priced for it could handle same, but then reduce your customers for that game to the hard core & what happens, raise the price or drop the game. Business is business.
