Last one. I need some sleep. I'm going to be dreaming cars

Anyone else notice the Alfa's and the Ariel Atom's front wheels stuck turning left?

 

[Always-honest]

Hover cars confirmed?

Nope.

 

[Auctopus]

Anyone else notice the Alfa's and the Ariel Atom's front wheels stuck turning left?

Yeah, weird.

Check out Quite in MGSV. Subsurface scattering at its best.

Hmmm… Yeah MGS V does skin pretty well.

It is a shame we have not had many impressions from gaffers who have had the chance of playing the latest versions of this game. There are tidbits here and there, but nothing meaty as far as I could tell...

Seanspeed gave these impressions today. Bear in mind that this is from someone who never had positive impressions about the gameplay from his previous play throughs last year. I've noticed him getting into a couple of arguments with gaffers in old DRIVECLUB threads over it.

- DriveClub(PS4) - Wait time about 5 minutes. I mean, it looks good. Really good. But the surprise for me was how it felt. It has good weight to it, its responsive, and while extremely forgiving by my sim racing standards, will still provide a good challenge for most people, I think. The courses are really long as we've seen, and there's good variety as you drive through them, giving you a good sense of 'going somewhere'. Only complaint was absolutely laughable rubberband AI. I totally ripped through the AI and was miles faster than them, but once in the lead, the 2nd place guy suddenly stuck on my tail and then just zoomed by me before the finish in a straight line like it suddenly had an extra 300hp or something. Totally not exaggerating that, either. I honestly laughed out loud when it happened. Still, this game will be great.

After reading this, apart from wondering why everyone seems to think the game has rubber banding while Evo denies it, I have no other worries about the gameplay.

Oops. Double post!

Hnnghh. The vivid colours, the varied vegetation, the reflections on the cars, the natural lighting.

.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

It looks like they've made the powerlines slightly thicker.

 

[Loudninja]

Alright this is the first exclusive racer on the PS4 should be interesting.

 

[Always-honest]

It looks like they've made the powerlines slightly thicker.

Yeah noticed that too. Or is it just that area?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Yeah noticed that too. Or is it just that area?

I've seen it in a few videos/areas now. I would say it's so they can apply AA better.

 

[Always-honest]

Fine with me. Game looks so clean now. And it will look ridiculous with weather.

 

[BloodyJasonMask]

Ugh I hate looking at Driveclub gifs. Mainly because I'm always staring for minutes at a time. Everything about this game looks amazing.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Oh, it's more than fine with me too. I just wanted to point it out.

I mean, for GOD'S sake. Photo-frigin'-realism:

Ha, same here. I'm dreading playing the game...because I don't think I'm going to be doing much of it. I'm just going to be parking up and gawking at the visuals.

 

[Amir0x]

Ha, same here. I'm dreading playing the game...because I don't think I'm going to be doing much of it. I'm just going to be parking up and gawking at the visuals.

Hey bro, that's my job.

1. Start track
2. Go two feet
3. Enter Photo Mode
4. Repeat in every track, every weather condition, every time of day

 

[Callibretto]

After reading this, apart from wondering why everyone seems to think the game has rubber banding while Evo denies it, I have no other worries about the gameplay.

Maybe they had dynamic ai thing where AI got better when they're behind. So it's not a speed boost rubber band thing but they simply get better at catching up to you?

 

[IAmRandom31]

Yeah there is no way Gran Turismo can go with any kind of prebaked anything now. Seeing the cockpit view, that dashboard, this lighting, yeah ... must all be implemented in GT.

Lighting is absolutely phenomenal. Everything looks so damn real.

Can't wait to get this onto my TV, with my surround kicked up, my woofer kicked up to 11 and fly around the tracks. Should be a hell of a time

Cockpit view will be my default view while racing I think. Just too good.

 

[Cubed]

Ha, same here. I'm dreading playing the game...because I don't think I'm going to be doing much of it. I'm just going to be parking up and gawking at the visuals.

That's my plan.

For the first week I own this game it'll be a scenic drive simulator, not a racing game.

 

[Summer Haze]

Pretty much. I imagine it will get to the point where I'll frustrate myself for not actually playing the game, lol.

 

[Red Chocobo]

The lighting in the last few GT games wasn't pre-baked.

 

[garyBig]

I hope we get to see Gamersyde-quality direct-feed footage of the final build before next week's out.

I am not 100% convinced that that is in-game footage...

 

[GribbleGrunger]

That's in game footage.

 

[Summer Haze]

I am not 100% convinced that that is in-game footage...

 

[IAmRandom31]

I am not 100% convinced that that is in-game footage...

Rushy already confirmed it to be gameplay footage.

Just look at the fucking detail on the car coming up on his side in the side view mirror.

Even the side view mirrors have all the detail intact, and all the lighting.

Usually rear/side mirrors look like ass. But not here. LAWD

It truly is unbelievable.

 

[El-Pistolero]

That's in game footage.

That...well, that is something...

 

[Maddox]

Pardon my ignorance, but is this game in anyway being influenced by PGR style racing?

 

[Summer Haze]

DRIVECLUB |OT| I am not 100% convinced that that is in-game footage...

 

[Loudninja]

Yeah.

 

[le-seb]

I'm pretty sure smoke and dust clouds aren't reflected in the mirrors, though.
Could still be perfected!

 

[Summer Haze]

I believe some of the ex-Bizarre devs went to Evo and worked on DC. So yes, it must be.

 

[Xun]

Temptation to buy a PS4 soon is rising fast.

There's not much else out on it yet that appeals to me though, so I really should probably wait till MGS5...

 

[Freeman]

This game shows why we shouldn't be unhappy when a game gets delayed.

This is going to be a great gen, if anything just for the fact that it is the first time we are getting good image quality in 3D games on consoles consistently.

 

[Zukuu]

Is there a good steering wheel for the PS4 already?

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

Yeah I never usually go cockpit view but because it looks so good, I'll be compelled to race that way.

And that's without the weather. Add that hyper realistic rain and snow running down the windscreen and cockpit view will be a pretty spectacular way to play the game.

 

[delSai]

DRIVECLUB |OT| I am not 100% convinced that that is in-game footage...

I like this.

 

[p3tran]

Anyone else notice the Alfa's and the Ariel Atom's front wheels stuck turning left?

thats a weird bug. game has no replay mode, so this is realtime gameplay, right?
and already confirmed to be from final/gold code?

 

[Roarer]

What's up with that hand tho?

 

[Red Chocobo]

What's up with that hand tho?

I think he's getting ready to change gear.

 

[mysteriousmage09]

What's up with that hand tho?

It's attached to a living body and not a mannequin?

 

[Terbinator]

What's up with that hand tho?

Stretching his/her hand after some hard racing?

 

[benny_a]

What's up with that hand tho?

Either he got stung by a bee and has an allergic reaction or he changed gear using a paddle shift.

 

[Jobbs]

I love the lowish lighting settings in this game.

kind of a surreal feeling with this setting.

 

[MidBoss]

Those veins. They probably have Driveclub in them.

 

[Eggbok]

This made me think of Motorstorm so much!

 

[BloodyJasonMask]

Ha, same here. I'm dreading playing the game...because I don't think I'm going to be doing much of it. I'm just going to be parking up and gawking at the visuals.

This may be my problem too. I'm worried that this game may be a hard platinum because of the lack of progress I'm going to encounter.

 

[BruiserBear]

You can also see that happening on the car on front of the player car in this gif.

Notice the little detail in his left mirror, up close and personal with another driver. A lot of games never do this but goddamn this looks sweet.

 

[blastprocessor]

Damn l thought it was a mix of in game and pre-rendered.

 

[Portugeezer]

Oh, it's more than fine with me too. I just wanted to point it out.

I mean, for GOD'S sake. Photo-frigin'-realism:

Ok, they matched the PS4 reveal trailer.
