The video (courtesy of our tipster @T_Zuck) was distributed to the entrants of a film contest centered on the game, and not only it includes the guidelines to handle the Driveclub brand, but also something a lot more interesting: a brief but lovely explanation of some of the visual effects used to make the game look more real.

Is there a direct link to the video anywhere? I'm on my phone and it's not showing up on that page.

It's up on youtube now

Lots more in the video. First GIF wins my adoration for the next hour.

EDIT: 1st place

After seeing Project Cars its really not that impressive IMO...
Need to see some new direct feed footage. These 720p marketing trailers aren't indicative of the actual visuals.
Just look at the reveal trailer and the actual direct feed footage we got last year.

After seeing Project Cars, its really not that impressive IMO...

the environments though.. it's also running on a $400 machine.

 

[Tsundere]

Gonna make some gifs, there's some nice reflection going on off the textured paint on the cars.

 

[BLACK AMERICAN PSYCHO]

please be 60 fps

[Ora]

Wow this is looking stunning. That snow environment is glorious.

 

[Dibbz]

Looks fantastic but I don't want to wait so long

 

[jello44]

I want this game inside me.

 

[ZeroX03]

Looks great.

Really hope they shook up the gameplay though, played this last year at a show and can't say I was a fan. But if it's free on PS+, who am I to complain?

 

[jet1911]

Like twisting a knife in the wound.

 

[PJV3]

Wow this is looking stunning. That snow environment is glorious.

Yeah, it's a shame you can't park the car and have a wander and a snowball fight, looks great.

That video looks better than pCARs imo.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Wow, please let us play it...

:/

 

[Gaogaogao]

where is the video?

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Looks gorgeous, give us that release date

 

[Arklite]

Looks good, wish they showed off more environments/tracks. Also saw on another screenshot that the drivers get racing suits, and thank god for that. I thought we'd be forced to play as TDU style douchebags

 

[Amir0x]

holy fuck the graphics in motion are insane

if i am playing a game that looks like that in a few months I am going to die with pleasure

 

[Skeff]

Compare it to project cars on a $340 PC with a $60 ds4

It's looking really impressive now though.

 

[Fou-Lu]

Looks way better than project cars.

 

[benny_a]

Project Cars is coming to PS4. We'll have plenty of time to compare it after both are released.

 

[R3TRO]

Looks great, I wish it was releasing soon so I'd have a time consuming game to play on my PS4.

 

[bigboss370]

jaw. dropping.

You are going to be disappointed. It isn't from driveclub. PSM Italy either screwed up or is screwing with us. Forget it ever happened

 

[travisbickle]

how fast do you wanna ggooo!! dun dun dun dun du du du dun

 

[Ultimatepancake]

This is WAY better than PCars
PCars has such low poly models, any good textures and effects are pretty much moot

 

[Guymelef]

Still waiting. No pressure

And we have a winner! Tsundere, you are dead to me.

 

[benzy]

How do you download the vid?

 

[Ora]

Oh and someone needs to gif that Mercedes camera view that's overlooking the car from the front.

 

[Spottiettiedop]

How does it play tho

 

[DieH@rd]

VIDEO IS AWESOME

 

[i-Lo]

So far the game does look stunning.

Here's me hoping that one day they'll also make another entry into the Motorstorm franchise.

 

[Cidd]

SO BOLD

I CAN'T WAIT!

 

[Tsundere]

Still waiting. No pressure

And we have a winner! Tsundere, you are dead to me.

I've got 6 coming right now.. lol

Edit:

3 here...

 

[elfinke]

Good video, great looking visuals. Thanks for sharing.

The marketing brouhaha was both a laugh and a reminder I need to update nextdoors letterhead, instead of whacking off on GAF.

 

[Jacobi]

Looks great. Might be even old material...

 

[Skeff]

Looks great. Might be even old material...

From the way this stuff works it's likely at least a month old build.

 

[Orca]

You just don't see enough 'visceral' racing games.

 

[UpUpDownDown]

The big takeaway from a design standpoint are the imperfections.

Really like that they're focusing on that. They seem to get graphics.

 

[Mohonky]

the environments though.. it's also running on a $400 machine.

Its running on a $400 machine? Well that just means pCars musnt exist then!

Argument gets old. The other product exists irrespective of what its on. I can play pCars on hardware I bought ages ago, so its currently at this point in time, cheaper than if I wanted to play this.

 

[jett]

This seems to be a really old conceptual footage. I doubt there's anything to glance from this. A lot of it wouldn't look out of place next to the PS4 reveal footage, in fact some of it is from there.

 

[dynamitejim]

Wow. The lighting, post-processing, and camera work come together nearly perfectly. The "Go Pro" style shots look especially cool.

 

[alr1ght]

 

[viveks86]

Blah blah blah blah

Argument gets old. Blah blah blah blah

Off topic. Take it somewhere else, please?

Project Cars does´nt look that good outside of incredible manufactured screenshots imo. Driveclub nails 2 things other races don´t, Enviroment and graphical imperfections, it needs to nail the 60fps either at 1080p or 720p upscaled to make it a clear winner of the eye candy.

 

[Rocket_Chips]

So ready for this game
