Support NeoGAF

[DOWN]

Well, I can understand that, but stuff like:



disappoints me. I'll decide if I want to buy the game next week or just wait until the weather patch drops and get it then.

People forgetting the PS+ version is free and gets the weather update? Just play that for as long as you want and if you decide to upgrade, great for you.

 

[Loudninja]

You have the weather update?

Weather is many things not just rain or snow.

 

[TimeEffect]

You have the weather update?

He means things like thunder clouds.

Hey, is there wind in this game?

Edit: lol oh yeah, I remember things blowing in the wind. But I meant like super windy conditions/sounds.

 

[DirgeExtinction]

Beta footage? Rapier is posting pics from the Beta?



Jesus. The differences are so blatant.

That top pic is from the beta.

 

[Game4life]

Okay guys. Trust me on this.. This game is TIGHT. In the best way.

Everything is super sleek and streamlined... and that music. I'm doing my best to capture the best music ATM just to give you a sample... But I can't spend all night trying to persuade people on the fence here.

The game is a blast, which is what matters in the end.

The visuals are FANTASTIC. You will not be disappointed. The studio's put an immense amount of love into the cars and tracks and it DEFINITELY shows.

Not only do the cars look brilliant but the vistas and the weather and the lighting ... I just can't.. I can't explain how nice it is. And the music...

Fuck the GIF's that got you impossibly hyped up, fuck the tiny jaggies. That's just the NeoGAF effect.

Go out and buy this game. You won't regret it even if you're not the biggest racing fan. It's THAT good.

EDIT:

Great, just realized that the music gets automatically muted when you capture video. I'm really sorry guys.

Thanks for the update man. I knew this game is going to be amazing!

 

[Portugeezer]

That top pic is from the beta.

Oh, well that is pointless then.

As I stated before, motion blur doesn't magically fix the problem of aliasing.

In the motion screenshot LoudNinja just posted here:

You can very clearly see the aliasing that is not present in the most recent videos.

If you don't think the image quality is different than the videos posted last week, I really don't know what to tell you.

Yea I noticed it looks a bit blurry,maybe it's a bad capturing device.

Beta vs final.

You have the weather update?

the weather update adds dynamic weather, there's still weather right now

 

[Vire]

But why should I take your opinion over Vire's?

Spoiler

/s

I'm not asking you to take my opinion. All I'm saying is I'm disappointed that the videos put out by Sony PR are not indicative of the final quality of the game.

And somehow this is turned around on me as concern trolling or some other bullshit?

Go be mad at Sony for putting out bologna videos, not me.

Pretty much how I felt after spending a few hours with the beta, haha.

You guys are killing me comparing the press supersampled and processed footage with direct beta stills.

Dude, even Rapier said the aliasing is disappointing a few posts up. I have no qualms
with the game play as it looks fantastic, but the visuals are equally important given
how much hype it has generated for the game so far. Visuals are absolutely crucial
for the game.

Not sure why he's dismissing your points given how you've backed them up with actual footage and pics. You've said nothing wrong.

Oh, I was under the impression that the scope of launch day weather included varying levels of cloud cover.

But the graphics are fantastic...Unless they turn automatically to shit when the IQ does not resemble the one featured in the downsampled video. You went into exaggeration mode right away...

Maybe those videos are with the day 1 patch. But who knows really. Seems it wouldn't matter, you're quick to judge.

 

[BiGBoSSMk23]

You have the weather update?

I think I do? In the settings menu right before a race it gives you the "Stormy" option.

Haven't tried it but the clouds and the water droplets were there in Norway.

Anyway, vids almost done.

I hope the motorstorm fans here can appreciate the vistas in Chile.

I got mad vibes of "In this ageless valley, a new breed of warrior has been born..."

He also said the game looks fantastic and is better than the screengrabs.

Backed up with pics of the beta vs. press supersampled trailer footage? Yeah makes sense.

And no, Rapier said:

[EatinOlives]

I was under the impression that Rushy said the footage was not supersampled. Wasn't there some Tweet of his that confirmed the footage to be directly captured? Maybe I'm just imagining things.

You're entitled to your opinion.
I'm just laughing a little because there is someone who actually owns the game saying DriveClub looks absolutely amazing yet we still have people acting like a crime against humanity has been committed.
Pointing out what I believe to be hyperbole is not the same as accusing someone of concern trolling.

 

[Portugeezer]

The day one patch suspense is killing me

I need to know the truth.

 

[Trace]

Any aliasing = shit IQ.

Ignore DF saying it has some of the best IQ on PS4, ignore the fact that it's 1080p with some of the nicest environments ever created.

Nah no rain showers or snow until after launch.

 

[Wynnebeck]

A portion of a beta shot looking worse than a portion of that one video disappoints you?

I'm saying why post a bullshot trailer when people are going to play the game and see that it doesn't look anywhere as good? I'm sorry, but when one of your main claims for the game is the ridiculous graphics, they better look on point. This only confirms that the game graphically is not as good as I had once thought. That in no way makes the game bad by definition, but it does dampen my hype considerably.

When a power line is so far into the distance that it becomes 1 pixel in thickness, how do you stop the stepping effect?

While releasing supersampled footage is misleading, it was deduced by many that it was indeed supersampled.

I think you're overreacting a bit.

Mmm. I think that's very minimal weather, but there is supposed to be heavier rain and snow as shown in videos before

 

[DOWN]

NO. He said he didn't know who produced that preview video, which included some footage of that publication playing final build. We already have seen it confirmed in this thread that the publication edited in some B roll and trailer footage.

Rapier has explained his experience with the game including the visuals. So what more do you want? Should Rushy fall at your feet.

Okay guys. Trust me on this.. This game is TIGHT. In the best way.

Are you saying some tracks have weather, similar to what we've seen from weather videos? Would be cool if weather was done on a few tracks and we got them when they completed each track.

Ah, I missed that. This thread is huge

 

[BloodMoney]

Everytime orochi91 makes a post on gaf, it delays Rapier's new video's by 10 minutes.

 

[Afrikan]

7 days.... yall can't wait 7 days before judging the graphics for yourself?... on your screen? in motion?

7 days.

if you don't have a PS4 and were going to buy the system for Driveclub, I can understand.

if you don't have PS Plus and were going to buy the full game...I can understand.

but if you do have PS Plus... I wouldn't worry too much, or feed some of the usual trolls in these Driveclub threads. Just wait before overreacting.

if Pre-ording/or missing out on it because of screen shots, is the issue for some..then IMO, bet on Evo's credibility on delivering graphics in their games.

Don't know , just showing the AA around the power lines look better than the beta version .

It was a serious question. Is it even achievable?

 

[ron_bato]

Wait.. wut?

Probably for copyright claims. NBA 2k and EA Sports UFC do this so that their licensed music doesn't get shared online.

Ice cold.

Hoping to see more of this, I haven't preordered it yet as I want to try out the PS+ version first, but I really enjoyed what I played of it at PAX.

I got a last one in for psn cause he wants to see the BMW in action. Sorry to say I banged it up pretty fucking bad. It did show some decent damage modelling near the end nevertheless.
