[headline]DRIVECLUB COMING OCTOBER 7th - 10th[/headline]

 

 

DRIVECLUB is actually coming! No it's true, Sony have released a brand new trailer showing off some truly gorgeous visuals of the cars along with some rather glorious ambient features including a rather sublime Aurora moment. The PS4 launch title coming only 11 months later than planned (:D) will still feature a slightly-trimmed down PS Plus version and damn are we hoping that it has indeed been worth this wait.

 

 

Post #20: Gameplay video

is it me or it look like a FORZA HORIZON Copy ?????

[Eudemon]

More like PGR in spirit. :)

[Camel]

Oooh looks nice. Maybe a little too nice. :hmmm:

 

Might actually give me a use for my PS4 other than being a large paperweight.

[mau92]

So we can say that so far my PS1 and your PS4 are capable of the same things? Interesting :hmmm:

[Ozzmcom]

them sounds though

and isn't FH a TDU copy? lol.

 

It looks good. I don't think it's open world iirc, but the graphics and sounds look like good stuff.

[calster17]

Keeps looking good, but October means it could be fighting with "The Crew" though!

 

Will be good to finally get my hands on it though.

[Eudemon]

It's a nice trio of months after another what with The Crew in September, DRIVECLUB in October and Project CARS in November. And if you consider Forza Horizon 2 could come in Oct/Nov things get interesting!

[Ryzza5]

Looks good but I hope I'm stuck into The Crew by then.

BOOM UPDATE

[Eudemon]

Anyone who can remember the reports about the PS Plus Edition can feel aggrieved at this as the impression they were giving was that it would be more than what it now appears to be, it's not bad for free but from what they were saying last year it's definitely lacking.

[Ryzza5]

Yeah it sounds more like a demo now compared to it's description last year.

 

But I can definitely see the improvement in visuals and sounds and am looking forward to this amazing menu they've created. :)

[Eudemon]

A demo is a bit harsh, maybe more like an 'Exclusive Demo' Disc like you used to get on the magazines. :cheeky:

[Ryzza5]

Yeah that's what I was thinking of. I haven't downloaded a demo in a reallllly long time :lol:

[Ryzza5]

Riiight :oook:

 

Responding to a commenter on the PlayStation EU Blog, who stated the PS+ version sounds "almost as if it's a demo", Rustchynsky revealed that - whilst players would be able to access all of the full DriveClub's gameplay modes, they'd only be able to do so with ten cars.

 

The DriveClub game director also went on to say the PS+ players "can only race in one country (which gives you access to 5 tracks with 11 distinct variants)", with the absent content set to be made available for players to buy separately as if they were DLC or expansion packs.

 

Hang on while I rush out to buy a PS4

Sony Confirms Driveclub Will Support Wheels - IGN

 

 

OH, TY VERY MUCH... THAT'S A HELL OF A SUPPORT THERE THANKS A LOT

 

[Eudemon]

There's word that there's some license agreement or patent or fish supper that should expire at the end of 2014 which could result in support for the 'others'. Mere conjecture though as obviously it cannot be properly confirmed.

[Ryzza5]

Either that or wait for hacks/adapters to enable them (and hope Sony/Microsoft don't release patches that break them).

[Ryzza5]

30 minutes of gameplay from ISR

 

 

Wheel use looks good enough but the weather graphics seemed just a little disappointing compared to trailers.

 

 

Multiplayer race:

 

 

 

Graphics looking better here oddly enough:

 

[hassan1995]

It looks so bland and dull, :mhmm:

Wtf is up with the shifting animations in the r8 they're horrible :lol:

[Ozzmcom]

biggest meh I'll give after project cars probably

[Camel]

Hmmm, doesn't look as good as the earlier trailers showed.

 

And why is it that a game with all Euro cars in it is released in the US first. And since when is the UK not part of Europe?

uk usually gets a separate release date because it is a huge market and publishers do not want to stress game servers too much. (At least that's what I was told by my friend who's in the industry)
