DRIVECLUB: 30 minutes of new Beta footage

All of the loading seems really fast. From the stream yesterday you could see that restarting a race happens instantly, going from a race to the menus takes about two seconds, and loading a track takes around five seconds. I've never seen a racing game load as fast as DC.
Evolution should take charge of the PS4 OS.
 
Same. Just because I've had steak before doesn't mean I need chicken next time - I'll never turn down another good steak!

Edit: i realize this is a poor metaphor i'm just hungry right now :(

Anyway, OT. I finally found a way to see the video. Damn, the change on the road after the snow starts is amazing; and i love how the control of the car seems to change due the wet road.
 
HOLY SHIT!

Doesn't looks like a dense snowstorm though. That's a shame. Was hoping we'd see something that literally makes it impossible to see a foot in front you...

Just at the end when he switches to dash view the snow looks a lot more prominent. Hopefully you'll be able to turn up the snow density!
 
did the devs say driving under different weather conditions changes the feel of the car? or is it just a visual effect

They've said that it will impact your driving. One of the rain videos even appeared to show a dry line forming as more cars drove over a specific area.
 
It's the same thing that happens in the Order 1886 threads people are "Concerned."

OMG. The Order 1886 review thread is going to be a massacre. I'll probably be avoiding
GAF that entire week lol

DC looks amazing despite the off-screen footage. Gameplay looks excellent as well.

Funny thing is I expect it will review very well and people will still cry foul.

Also I just watched the snow video....... I am ONLY playing this game in cockpit or hood cam mode holy mother of god. Looks amazing and after seeing their outline for it I will be getting the season Pass day 1.
 
There needs to be more variety than just mindlessly pelting away on a fake empty circular track with some pretty vistas.

It makes sense in an F1 game - that's a sport. But DC is an arcade racer that had zero constraints during its inception. Wish devs didn't blindly chase after the elusive PGR4. It worked then. It won't cut it now.

So if you want those things then stick to the other racing games that are coming out like The Crew, Project Racing and FH2.
I can't remember people complaining that Forza 5 was Linear, Sterile, boring etc?
 
I'll be preordering this bad boy tonight when I get home. $49.99 is awesome. I'll probably get the season pass too.
 
Haha, Raptor was a funny guy. Too bad he was banned.

RIP in peace.

Eh? The guy who wanted stuff shoved up his ass?

Why was he banned?

I really want it to review well. The premise is intriguing!

And yes, the hood cam is extremely well implemented in DC. Very immersive when coupled with the amazing audio.
 
Ummm...something does not look right here. Why are the snow particles just in front of the car and the rest of the area is clear (top of the car, behind the car). Maybe they are still working on the weather system and its not final.

It's just the way the VFX is handled in this game, tailor made for gameplay cameras, not so much for replay or photo mode. An entire world filled with particles would be...impossible to do.

That's basicly what you see when they pause the vid and move the camera, right?

I dont know what you will be able to adjust in the game, but I know Rushy mentioned that they were able to turn the snow up to white out conditions it was so thick. Obviously, that wouldn't make for a fun Racing Game, however, half that density could be AWESOME!
 
...no? You see a small cube filled with snow in front of the car. MGS2 did the same thing but with rain.

I'm almost certain that you are wrong here. If that is really the case, then photo mode would make no sense with weather turned on. This simply has to do with ambient light vs head lights and how a camera captures that. They will render whatever the camera can see.

This picture kind of shows that - sorry for the small size it was the first one I could find.

EDIT:

A better version. If the streetlights were gone you wouldn't even really be able to see the snow outside of the headlights
