I don't understand the hype for this.

Looks o.k., nothing mind blowing to go crazy about.

Like the same thing we seen from higher end racers all throughout last gen, only with higher res PC like textures.

Maybe I need to see a direct feed to be more impressed (but then again, it's 30fps).
Which racing games look better?

PLEASE show me a racing game that looks even close to this with the weather effects, lighting and insane geometry. I want to play it immediately. I have a gaming level PC that can play almost every modern game @ max settings and hit 60fps, so let me know.

It's not one, he said there are multiple games. I have all the platforms too, so we can play multiplayer and have the pick of the litter!

I think The Crew could be a good underdog.

Gotta say, watched some Gamersyde videos and it's not looking bad at all...but going against Driveclub and FH2 is just stupid, could've easily picked that up this month just to play a racer, now it doesn't even cross my mind to buy it, at least not before a huge price cut and in late 2015 as i tend to play racing game for a LONG time

Both are two different Racing games and aimed at different audiences. Driveclub is your more casual racing game while GT is aimed towards car enthusiasts with high levels of realisme.

Don't forget that Sony had Motorstorm, Wipeout and GT last generation.

That driveclub trailer seemed pretty damn realistic to me.


And when I mean first party racers I mean serious racing games, Wipeout and Motorstorm don't really count they are more fantasy (doesn't mean they aren't fun)

The physics seems pretty bad. It's like NFS2 all over again. That technology is ancient.

Also I don't see what's everyone raving about. It doesn't look that magnificent.

I don't understand how anyone can NOT be blown away by the graphics. It literally tricks my brain into thinking it's real footage for a second every time i watch it. No exaggeration.

Man! Apparently it's open season on astonishing looking racing games I must be missing! Since you too have clearly been playing some astounding looking racing games, can you recommend any that even come close to looking like this? I want to play it right now. This is a genuine request bros! I have an amazing gaming PC and love racing games! Tell me what you're playing!

To be fair, you are easily tricked into believing a lot of things. :p

What sucks about that is that I also always ask about these games, but they never reveal them. It's like a secret club that doesn't want to share the best looking games.
 
@M76

Please do show us what does impress you then and name some of these great looking racers you guy think looks and play better. Several people have called you out so please put up or shut up. I've a beefy rig also and would love to play these games NOW so please help. Thanks.

Game looks amazing visually and impressions on gameplay are positive. I don't know how you guys can tell how the game plays by looking instead of playing. I think I'll believe my own eyes and people who have played the game.

Well, it's an arcade game you know

It's like NFS2 all over again

Do you mean an arcade game is similar to another arcade game?

That technology is ancient.

wait what?

Also I don't see what's everyone raving about.

Not the physics, they like what they see in terms of graphics.

It doesn't look that magnificent.

How this does relate to the physics!!?

They won't post examples because there aren't any. Not that actually back up their points anyway. Just baseless posts trying to downplay and diminish. But I'd be happy to be proven wrong! Because hell, I want to see these games from this secret club too!
 

Fox_Mulder

Rockefellers. Skull and Bones. Microsoft. Al Qaeda. A Cabal of Bankers. The melting point of steel. What do these things have in common? Wake up sheeple, the landfill wasn't even REAL!
I think The Crew could be a good underdog.

It could be the definitive open-world racing game. Very ambitious project

From what we've seen I like it more than Horizon 2

It has nothing on GT5, or Shift2, or NFS The Run, or Assetto Corsa, or Beamng, or Spintires, or

No, I mean it's similar to a 17 year old arcade game. Advances don't stop at graphics, you know.
wait what?
The way the car moves in a game, the engine that handles physics it's technology too. And this one raves NFS2, I used the same method in my own dissertation, more than 10 years ago.

Indeed, how?

GTAV, GT5, PGR 3 & 4, Grid 1 & 2, Dirt 2 & 3, pretty much all the recent Need For Speed games.

I mean the graphics aren't that far above the games I mentioned.
Higher LOD backgrounds, high res textures & 1080p withstanding.

There has been so much drive-by shit posting on PS exclusives today. Has this been going on in other threads for exclusives that aren't on PS, too? What is it about DC and TLOUR that attract such specimens?

There's no way you're serious.

Will Ged Talbot the lead designer of the PGR series and Blur is the lead gameplay designer for Driveclub so I have a lot of faith in the physics of this arcade racing game.

People posted Dirt 3 screens shots at max settings awhile ago & it honestly looked better than this.
Drive Club looks like a game that can be done on 360 & PS3 with lower IQ all around, but 100% of the game assets all intact.

I still expecting these massive draw mega distances with tens of thousands of flamingos that the developer keep saying are a one in a generation thing. Haven't seen them.

There were a few good shots of large scale mountains covered with trees, kinda like in the Dirt, GT & PGR, & NFS games only with higher level of detail trees.
That's the closest I been to being impressed by this game.
 
It's hard for me to believe posts like that are genuine. None of those games looks even remotely close to DC in terms of graphics.

How can that be someone's opinion? I know you're supposed to be open minded and accepting of other peoples views...but damn, its just plain wrong.

Stop smoking weed man.

I like how gta v is in this list!

GTA V pretty much shits on all racing games when it comes to car physics, destructibility & all around weather variation. Rain, drizzle fog, snow (use the cheat codes), freezing ice rain, sleet, thunderstorms and visible wind conditions. All real time to boot.

Nothing comes even close.

This is Dirt 3:


This is Dirt 3 even DOWNSAMPLED for you, so I'm even giving it a GREATER leg up.

You can view the gifs in this topic or the gamersyde non-compressed DriveClub videos without the weather to compare. If you believe this looks close all I can say for you is genuinely I think something is broken with your vision.

The way the car moves in a game, the engine that handles physics it's technology too. And this one raves NFS2, I used the same method in my own dissertation, more than 10 years ago.

Can you post a link to your dissertation please? I'd be very interested to read it

I just want to post that I'm here but I'm incapable of replying to that list of games.

I take my GIF response back. I just noticed GTA V in that list.

GTA V

Grand Theft Auto V

DRIVECLUB is being compared to Grand Theft Auto V

I… Uhh.. Hmmm

O_O

You made it too obvious. You were good up until this post. Had me goin' for a second there.

Bravo.

Because you're incapable to understand the post was partly about physics AND partly about graphics?

You do know that 2 of the biggest Sim sites Simpit and Inside Sim Racing states the driving model is closer to Sim than arcade? They actually have nice videos on youtube stating as much, from the E32014. I suggest you give it a view.

Is there such a thing as tripling down on stupidity? If so, you've blown past even that. Wow.


Must be trolling. If not, God help us all. The same goes for that junior posting the same garbage.

Lol, Holy Shit man. GTAV? NFS The Run? Shift Games? What is going on?
