DriveClub Being Streamed Early by Twitch User

You know it is not wrong to have console allegiances. I mean thats his/her priority but to feel the need to come to another thread and constantly downplay another console's game is pretty sad. I dont know why people do it. I dont want to name names in this thread but usually the clear suspect is someone who does not find a redeeming quality in any game released exclusive on another console. Some of them are there in this very thread and I usually ignore them but sometimes it is just sad that they are so obsessed about their console of choice that they almost get some kick out of finding faults and trashing other exclusive games.

It's gaming guys. Its a hobby and not a serious business. It is supposed to be about fun.

You could say this about a lot of games not just Drive Club or Playstation
 
More gifs inbound.

Woooow! Omg. This is amazing. Is that based off a real tunnel, or is it just fictional?
 
It's as I suspected really. There's a lot of tracks with mountains and trees, but not much else. I was hoping for some city tracks, and a bit more variety in general really.

Yeah, you couldn't tell one track from another regardless of which country they were in. How awful.
 
Apologies if its already been answered a million times but did anyone manage to record the stream before the twitch account got closed?

I'm already 100% sold on the game I just need something to tide me over until launch day ;)

Here you go, courtesy of Loudninja:

nvm, it got closed down :3

LMAO at the XBO hardcore dudes coming in to rain on DC'S parade...

It's sad how blatant they are lol

Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. The "how awful" at the end kind of hints at it being sarcastic.

It has nothing to do with whether you can tell which country you are in anyway, it is simply that a lot of the tracks consist of mountains and trees. I would just like to see more varied locations. Who the hell wouldn't like to see a city track with that engine? It would look amazing.

I kind of have a feeling though that a city track would be complicated and quite difficult to do with that engine. A lot of glass would mean reflections fucking everywhere, for instance.

Still, I would just like to see more tracks that are vastly different from one another, that's all.
 
Does anyone know if on the tracks where there are piles of snow, if the snow reacts if you crash into it or if it is simply a solid object with painted on snow textures? I expect the latter, but am hoping for the former.

They ARE vastly different.
 
Oh man that title music ... so goood!

PS: Insanely short loading times. They took a lot of shit when MS came out with long ass loading times. Remember those car selection screens from MS...ugghh! Bravo Evo for fixing one of the worse things about last gen.

wow the menu music is really awesome

i like it
 
Um for the record, I think DriveClub looked great but after seeing the stream, there was quite a lot of concerns I have that I didn't before. That's pretty normal.



This DriveClub stream came out the same day as the Forza Horizon 2 demo, which is quite great btw, so people are naturally posting their comparisons.
There is a specific thread for that though. I'm sure i seen it around on Gaf. I enjoy the Horizon 2 demo thread. Love reading the impressions from everyone and nary a mention of Driveclub over there. Yet in here its almost on every page and i'm sure you know what that leads to.
 
Simple as this... Forza Horizon 2 is doing nothing extraordinary and honestly could very well run on the 360, Driveclub on the other could never run on the PS3.

Edit: Don't want to contribute to thread derail.

Oh please. Most tracks take place around mountainous regions. The roads are different, the shrubs and species of trees are obviously different, but they are still mountainous regions. A city track for instance I would define as 'vastly different'.

I would like to see some city tracks. okay?
 
In this year of disappointment, there is nothing I'd like more than for this game to be great.

Yea, I need this to be amazing. The indies have been great and outside of D3:RoS/TLoU:R/I:SS there hasn't been much else for me personally. DC looks like something I'd spend hours on.

I'm hoping it leads to bans because it's getting ridiculous at this point.

You can want city tracks without citing the reason to be because the tracks look samey. Perhaps it's because I'm a walker but they all look completely different to me and have their own unique character.
 
It looks pretty nice to me. Obviously the stream makes it looks worse than it should look in person. /shrug

So cool to see the VW Golf GTI in there. I'm driving a Golf Mk 7 in real life (the 150 HP model, not a GTI), it's a great car and I'm interested how accurately they modeled it, especially the interiors.

I'm with you on this.
 
It's clearly sub 720p stream here, so not quite sure how you can judge the graphics like that.

Maybe because while poorer resolution and bitrate hides textures and things like that, it certainly doesn't hide the rest of the stuff that make up the visual appeal, like atmosphere and lighting and AO and how everything blends together and makes it look so realistic.

I just bought a 2015 golf on Saturday.

Love it.
