I disagree. More to the point, the lights are not textured (if what the devs said during presentation is true) and I really do not see the quality of reflection being low, at all.

I thought it looked the worst among all games shown, seems like a higher ps3 tier game.

Yes, the guy seemed genuinely excited. Can't make fun of that.
Lots of grain in the pic. mh.
yeah, most def... most people not liking it dont care at all about car games... people have been requesting detail from Forza and GT forever... more detail the better.

Just me guessing, but I reckon you'll see one within the next few years. I doubt they'll put a sequel for this out close to GT6.
Evolution expanded their studio too, right?
Like I said in my previous post you must not know what Autovista is. I play every racing sim/game because I love them. If you didn't instantly compare it to Turn 10's own hi-poly cars, then you should probably not comment. You can put a billion polys in a car and still not quite look right. I expect Turn 10's cars, which are in Forza 4, to return in Forza 5...so this should be fun to compare.
(These are "last gen" Autovista and High-poly in race shots) All shots taken in-engine/game. I even took some of these.
This shot I took myself. This is on the 360...one of multiple systems I race on.
I expect "next-gen" to blow this stuff out of the water.
Hopefully you now understand why I said I still think Autovista mode from Turn 10 looks better....or at the worst...equal. Again, I expect DriveClub is not even out of Alpha though.

Model/polygon wise they're at the same level to Forzas AutoVista models (not race models) more or less, lighting and material wise they are not. Overall Drive Club clearly looks better.
Yes, that was my point. I don't think the guy has ever played Forza 4. I was referring to those modes not the mid race models.
Things like "multi reflection lenses" were in Forza 4....in Autovista and photomode in races.
I expect Turn 10 to deliver those Autovista models or better in gameplay this time, so it should be a fun comparison.
Here are some head lights up close in their last sim offering.
I'm also curious as to what the Horizon sequel will be.

I think the visual quality of games like GT5 have had a big impact on opinions like this ...
I've subscribed to the thread for now but I'm still not totally sold ... it's a shame they couldn't just have taken care of PD's online element [and sound recording after watching the trailer again] for GT6 while concentrating on either a new Motorstrom/Wipeout title.
Really excited for this, and as others have noted, Matt's genuine passion for the product really helped sell it. Sony's racers have always been a tier above the rest(imo), and is one of the main reasons I'll be getting a PS4 day 1. The social features are just the icing on the cake - I'm really looking forward to GAF DriceClub.
Speaking of, does anyone have a link to watch this presentation again? I can't find it for the life of me. =(

I expect in-game cars to look the same as photomode shots from current-gen games.
I think what DriveClub got right is that the cars don't feel like they're made of plastic like what we got in Forza and GT.

Evolution Studios. Playground Games.
Polyphony Digital. Turn 10 Studios
Microsoft and Sony first parties directly competing for our time and money can only be a good thing.
Keep the info coming Rushy, very eager to know more about DriveClub.

Exactly. About time we got a proper racing game from Sony besides GT. Polyphony takes so much time that we need something in the middle.
Yeah,I think Evolution should've returned(since they made WRC) to realistic racing games with licensed cars after the first MotorStorm.
Also a 2nd Sony racing IP may put a needed pressure on Polyphony Digital so they wont take forever to make a new GT from now on.
PD can do whatever the hell they want unless this game sells just as much as GT.
This looks nice, but I sure hope it's 60fps. 30fps racers border on being unplayable, for me.
Yamauchi is a true asshole for blocking that.

But what does club racing mean? How do you race as a team? Especially with road cars / hypercars, I'm worried that will mean some silliness, rather than the car culture game that beginning of the announcement had me excited for.
The 'likes' button also has me worried.
However, hurrah for racing games. I am now even more excited for GT6. And, I imagine Project CARS will be headed towards ps4.

Agreed. Make the framerate a priority.
It was reported that they wanted to use the Gran Turismo brand for the title but Kazunori Yamauchi said no.

I hope the game features closed circuit racing through city streets ala PGR. And yes, 60FPS MUST be a priority.

So it's confirmed there is no third person view?

They haven't flat out said that there's no third perosn option, but they're referring to it as "first-person-racing".

I think this is a case where Sony should put its foot down, as the publisher, and tell them it has to have a third person view.
I understand artistic vision, but you shouldn't limit your game's appeal like that. It's just stupid.
I didn't really get what they meant buy clubs but obviously I'm going to get whatever racer is out at launch and the detail in this game looked great.
I was wondering if it was similar to Ridge Racer on Vita where you choose a club (not car make) to begin with and sort of compete against other factions? :S

If this game has it to where you can have your own house. Work on your car at home and meet up and drive with different people around various roads ala cruisin USA. I think they could have a winner. It seems to be more of an enthusiast game.

Interested in this game. Sounds and looks very promising.
Also, want to highlight Matt Southern's excitement and enthusiasm as well. You really see that he and his studio put all their soul and passion to this project. They infect me with this enthusiasm

this game looks great, but....
is anybody else completely bummed that we are getting what appears to be an arcade version of gran turismo instead of a new wipeout or motorstorm? i'm not into cars, but loved those games. this interests me far less. i hope there are some over-the-top racers next-gen and we aren't solely relying on criterion's output.

We all want to have seen wipeout for sure. Motorstorm is still coming surely it's a bit too arcadey to get my full attention as a launch title though so I'm not too bummed about this being first.
really?? i was assuming that evolution was a 1 game studio. could they have a team working on a next-gen motorstorm/wipeout?? i would feel much better if that was the case.

Yes. We have seen a lot of games just like this one recently. In fact, GRID 2 comes out in May, and looks awesome. Semi real racers are not unique. This "team racing" concept doesn't sound exciting either.
How many Motorstorm like games are there right now? Basically none.
I would much prefer Evolution be dedicated to arcade racers, where no limitations are placed on you because of real cars. It's kind of a shame, but I guess Sony felt it couldn't rely on Gran Turismo alone anymore. :/

Driveclub is highly unlikely to be a sim or in the same category as GT/Forza. It looks, and I hope, to be a similar game to PGR.

This looks great but I was hoping for. Fun arcade racer like motorstorm, or put spy hunter in there. I will probably get this game since its next gen but for the most part I've grown very tired of these serious racers where you just race and upgrade cars in all of them.

They should re brand it into a GT side series or something. It looks high quality enough to deserve the GT name.
Something like, Gran Turismo: Drivers Club
Sony gives too much power to their devs.

Ehh, sorry, I didn't mean for launch..just that at least it would be coming down the line..unlike wipeout it seems.

I'd say fair enough if Yamauchi is planning on releasing GT6 early in the life cycle
Otherwise he should get bent. Sony should stop caving in so much to their developers. Especially when the quality of output has dropped off so much from PD
