Don't get too excited. The actual game doesn't look nearly as good as the weather suggests.

lol?

trolling on a whole other level!

What next, no soul? 30fps means a worse IQ experience? I've heard it all today.

Is there a way to turn off rain on the camera lense? That's the reason I would get out of cockpit view... so I could see all the wet environment clearly.

EDIT: I shoulda asked this in the weather update thread, doh

 

[NoMoChokeSJ]

Bought!! Was waiting for weather update, price only solidified purchase. With all my recent 3rd party games being PC, it will be nice to have something to play on my PS4.

 

[BoboBrazil]

I'll ask again on the new page. Does anyone know how long this sale will last?

It's a corridor racer! Will not buy until free PS+ version!

The pics in the weather thread convinced to grab this. Shit looks bonkers.

....ok? Let's think through this.

Driveclub PS+ Edition is originally offered as a game available to PS+ subscription members in November of 2013. Driveclub gets delayed. Sony gives those with PS+ subscriptions Contrast as a substitute for the download during November of 2013.

Fast forward eleven months. Sony offers Driveclub PS+ Edition as a bonus (literally, they used the word bonus in the blog post I quoted), in addition to two other games (Spelunky and Dust: The Elysian Trail) for the month of October 2014.

History happens, and we don't get Driveclub PS+ edition in October. We will get it eventually, however.

So instead of getting Driveclub PS+ edition, Spelunky, and Dust, you're getting those three plus Contrast, albeit at a different time than originally planned.

You're getting four games instead of three and you're freaking out about it.

I have not freaked out at any point. Criticizing a shit tier developer is not "freaking out".

So are you calling them shit tier because you didn't get what you want when you wanted, and not in any consideration to the actual quality of the games they worked on and released? What the fuck.

Not only that but an entire studio needs to close because of it.

It takes a shit tier developer to repeatedly promise a game to paying customers on a certain date, not come through, and then provide little to no information on when to expect the content that was part of our paid subscription and influenced console decisions.

I personally didn't want to buy Driveclub at full price (and especially since the game was broken at launch). But I got it on Amazon last week for 30$ and that was well spent.

The game is actually a fantastic arcade racer with great imaginary tracks (Evolution is AWESOME with fictive tracks since Motorstorm series) and the game is full of content and it actually WORK. + lot of free DLC.

Just grab it.

Is there a listing of all the vehicles, tracks, etc.?

Thanks! May have to pick this up.

If you are so concerned about it, which you seems to be since you want the sky to fall on them, the least you can do is ask them for informations you know:

Sadly I don't have a list but there's at least 50 tracks and 50 cars. I don't know if that counts DLC and 2 new free tracks have been added this week with the weather update.

It's crazy enough that people buy a console based on an unreleased game promised to that platform (i.e. PS3 owners who complained about FFXIII going to 360 or The Last Guardian never coming out), but it takes a certain type of crazy if you bought a PS4 because of Driveclub PS+ Edition.

At this point my concern is only with watching then reap what then have brought onto themselves.

The sole reason? Absolutely not. But it was certainly an influence with why I went PS4 over ONE, and my decision to subscribe to Plus as well.

Friend was supposed to give me his copy but he bailed and sold it on ebay so here i am

Last game i bought following the gaf hype was Infamous SS and that was imo as mediocre as it gets

Hoping to be blown away by this one tho, Horizon 2 was amazing but after almost 150 hours i really can't play it anymore for the moment lol a change was required for my racing scene

Same, tons of sales for the magnificent racing game they made, enough to keep the studio up and running and hopefully an eventual part II of the game.

Have ''fun'' doing what you want though. (yeah, I did it again..)

So does this game work now due to fixed servers or has enough people just given up on playing it and reduced the server load?
