New difficulty options coincide with the launch of RoadCraft’s first DLC.
RoadCraft proved a surprisingly controversial entry in Saber Interactive’s series of grungy vehicle sims after launching in May. It expanded upon SnowRunner’s logistics simulation with systems like convoy automation and an emphasis on constructing road networks (hence the name). But these bigger features came at the cost of a more simplistic driving model, leaving players who preferred the stern navigational challenge of SnowRunner put out.
Now, though, Saber has released an update to RoadCraft that folds some of that driving complexity back in. Or at least, it gives players the option to reinstate it themselves if they so choose. The update adds a „hard mode“ to RoadCraft in the form of several difficulty modifiers, each of which can be toggled on or off depending on how granular you want the experience to be.
For driving fans, the key additions are limited fuel and „realistic“ gearboxes—the latter of which basically means that RoadCraft now supports manual gear-shifting.
