Sega Rally Revo was amazing, I miss it.

What console was it on? The graphics look pretty solid (looks late ps2/early ps3).
All the DC footage so far has given off huge Revo vibes to me. That game was a real looker as well. Shame it flopped.

PS360/pc, it had vibrant colors and the mud felt wet.
It initially launched on 360 (on the same day as Halo 3 - nice one Sega).
An XBLA/PSN version came out a few years later. It was a port of the arcade game, which itself was a heavily cut down / reworked port of the 360 game. Worth playing if you can't get the 360 full retail game, but only a fraction of the content and just basic arcade modes.
Edit: XBLA/PSN game is called Sega Rally Online Arcade.
It's been made by Evo to be their engine for all their PS4 games. They're a racing game studio. Never released a game in a different genre. So I doubt we'd see it used for a FPS or open world adventure game, even if the engine is suited for them.

I really want just 8 more cars.
Four Japanese makes and four US makes.
Lexus LFA, Honda NSX, Toyota Supra Mk. IV, and Nissan GTR for Japanese makes.
And the Saleen S7, Corvette Stingray, SRT Viper, and Ford GT for US makes.
They would all fit in the game as part of the high end exotics / super sports.
I'm hoping of the 38 paid DLC cars and the 9 Free cars, these 8 cars are amongst the list.
If that's too much to ask then hopefully the LFA, GT-R and Ford GT make the cut.
Damn straight. It's an odd statement to make, but the mud in Sega Rally felt the slushiest, muddiest, stickiest that I've ever noticed in a racing game... even up to now.

Considering the fact that they're able to patch in something as significant as rain and snow after launch, I would say it's robust, and the possibilities would be limited only by the imaginations of the devs.
So bring on Motorstorm: Atlantic Rift!
Are you able to tell how fast DriveClub is downloading? Perhaps it is using most of your bandwidth. A 12mb connection will max out at about 1.5 mb/s. The PS3 might have been using less bandwidth allowing you to browse the internet without getting too slugish.

Idk if this has been answered already but is there any customization of the body of the car or tires?
Nope.
There are different implementations of motion blur though. You can see here DC's motion blur takes a pretty heavy effect on the car and makes it muddy looking. The same look is seen in the other screenshots for the trees and such, but it's probably not noticeable in motion.
They'll be in, maybe the new NSX too. Supra? Nah. Maybe the BRZ at best.

Just preordered
I personally wouldn't care much for a BRZ for this type of game. I'd much rather see more super and hyper car variants. New NSX and LF-A would be great adds. I wouldn't mind seeing concept stuff, either (great for arcade racers).
I didn't realise the season pass was already up. I'll have to have a look!Well thanks to this thread and the awesome gifs i just pre ordered the game and season pass. Can't wait

Will we get to see the aurora borealis in Norway?
Yes.

It does seem to have object-based motion blur, but it doesn't seem super high quality, and the motion blur in general seems to create a bunch of weird artifacts (that I don't really think are noticeable in motion). Here's a heavy motion blur from NFS Rivals, which I think has a really nice motion blur implementation:
I don't really want to bring in any comparisons or anything, but I have come to my conclusion that the things Evo sacrificed in the visual department make the game look bad in screenshots, and the things they put priority into make the game look amazing in motion. They have to make priorities, and it pays off in motion.
Yes. If you are lucky

On the one hand I love how Rivals looks for a multi platform game, but in some hard to describe way, I also get a sense that the stylized look is trying too hard. Like it's too dark and night contrast so it looks more like a fan wallpaper.It does seem to have object-based motion blur, but it doesn't seem super high quality, and the motion blur in general seems to create a bunch of weird artifacts (that I don't really think are noticeable in motion).

I am so praying for Underground 3, set in fake LA again or fake Tokyo.
Think I'm gonna enjoy doing the drift challenges a lot. Heard it takes a while to get a hang of it
Drift Challenges are my favourite Challenges!

NFS Rivals is a damn good looking game, IMO.
Maybe we'll get this version of Motorstorm from the faux PS3 reveal "gameplay" debacle:
I'd guess a PS5 might handle graphics that good in r-t, next generation with the help of its inevitably stronger GPU (15~20 Tflops, perhaps?) coupled with 3D stacked RAM / HBM for a lot higher bandwidth than what GDDR5 can offer.

That fireworks at the end absolutely blew me away. The icing on the cake.
Wlf!

While you are here, I must commend you/your team on the UI! Great job!
thankx for the response.
I think this maybe the case.
DriveClub is consistently downloading about 1-1.5mb a second.
I guess even though I have a next gen system, I have last gen Internet for now...lol.

Yeah, in an old build they had even lower quality motion blur that created a dithering effect which was especially noticeable during night races. I'm glad they fixed that at least.

Thank you very much!
I'm glad you like it.
There was also Sega Rally 3 for arcades. It was based on Sega Rally Revo, but ran on PC based hardware more powerful than than 360/PS3. Sega's 'Europa-R' hardware.

SR3 was 60 FPS whereas Revo on 360/PS3 was 30 FPS.
But look at this, Revo on PC, in 3D and triple screen:

Yeah, total bummer about the lack of T00 availability in the states... I'm going to jump in day one, and if the game really sinks in, I will replace the G37 when the T300 us an option.

Yeah, I remember that. That was pretty rough. They've made a huge improvement in that regard.

That is still around after launch. Not tied to preorder.

Once you've started a club, can you change its emblem and livery once you've started?
Yeah, lighting is a little too cinema-ish.. Not realistic, very contrasty.
However, it does some things objectively better than DC visually. It has a higher quality motion blur, better textures, better AF, better AA (especially noticeable at a standstill and with things like power lines), and a bokeh-based DoF rather than DC's cheap blur-based DoF.
But things that make a huge difference in DC's favor is the AMAZING lighting, huge amount of geomtry, and incredible attention to detail.
I would imagine so, you unlock more emblems as you progress.
