DRIVECLUB: 30 minutes of new Beta footage

The game is looking fantastic as ever, but I can't help but shake the feeling that the steering looks a little too twitchy and not weight enough. Although I also guess I can't guage that from a video, so I'll have to wait and see. Still probably buying day one since I loved Motorstorm so I can trust Evo.
 
Damn, I was actually hyped for Driveclub, but are you telling me its one of those racing games that's exclusively filled with tracks that don't have branching paths?

Yes :(

Boring like Formula 1, DTM, Indycar and all those corridor racing sports.
 
I love that lighter, sort of fluffy snow. The presentation continues to impress, and the handling model has looked tight for the last several showings.
 
The Norway footage looks *almost* like real life, you can still see its a game mainly because of the hud and really dangerous driving, but if you had that on your TV and someone just looked at it, they might think its a real race or a movie.
 
The storm would just be there to hide the pop-in.

I would love that visually, but practically... trying to drive a supercar in those conditions is like trying to drive one through a corn field.

I think it adds a level of risk/reward. Would also make for some very tense races. Just imagine barrelling down a straight and not knowing when the turn is...do you play it safe and slow down or do you keep going and hope you hit the brakes in time nd don't lose multiple positions.
 
Shame i can't see those videos at work. I'm particularly curious about the snowy one.

Also, what does DC have that always bring such post as the "corridor racer" (not on this thread - i get the one in this was a joke - , the others) and stuff like that?
 
Norway footage is impressive. On another note dam rushy clean your driving up! With drive club being so much of a "social" racer thats the kinda player that keeps me well clear of racing online. Bumper car!
 
Thank you for posting these fellow GAFfer.

I honestly can't wait to play this game, it's going to be great. I wish I could play both DC and Horizon 2 but since I do not own a Xbox One then there's no way. Either way, both will be different but a blast to play, I'm sure of it.

Days will be shorter soon and before we know it Autumn and Winter will arrive, then, playing Driveclub all warm with a nice cup of coffee or tea, after a long day will be amazing. Racing during the day or at night with rain and snow will be addicting. Can't wait.

Come on my good people, focus on the good things, it's all about having fun in the end! ;)
 
The gradual build up to full on snow looks incredible.

Rushy also confirmed this is photomode.

The volumetric clouds look insanely good. The repeating texture on the lake is meh but those clouds! And the draw distance! Looks great.

Also all the cars plowing into each other in the turn lol... They're putting drivatars to shame in the aggressive cornering.
 
every video I see is just someone plowing through the ass of a bunch of cars at each corner and getting away with it

It's SP footage. There are penalties for it in MP. If done often, you will get a speed penalty. Other than that, it is an arcade racer so expectations should be set accordingly.

yes, fine, but there should be a deceleration penalty. Most arcade racers have this sorted, even simpler games like Outrun 2.
