Anyone tried this with a T500RS wheel yet?

 

[mrklaw]

Bought this for 89 pounds. Hope is any good.

Honestly I'd be tempted to return it and get a T100 for £5 less than that. Has proper FFB too. If you bought mail order you have 7 days to return it without needing a reason (distance selling regulations)

 

[Rafy]

I just got word that we'll be getting the review copies tomorrow as they just got them this morning themselves (in my region at least)

 

[TomShoe]

DriveClub is #48 on Amazon. It's making me nervous.

 

[mreddie]

So an update file was just released.

Likely the AMG GT?

 

[FireSol]

Kyle form PSU striming right now http://www.twitch.tv/psulive

 

[viveks86]

Likely the AMG GT?

[Kyleoty]

Ahh man Thats not good

They show in stock as soon as they are, in stock. You might get lucky and they ship early, but standard for them to show 'in stock' ahead of release, it said in stock over the weekend.

I've just found this..

I asked last night but I'll ask again, does anyone want to jump right into a few MP races right off the bat at midnight? No warming up, just dive in? I'm PST so let me know if you're down.

If the servers survive, sure I'm down. Add me on PSN - zeroskater18 and just include a message so I know it's you

I'm MST but I'll be up for a little bit.

 

[williamracine]

Anyone know when the embargo is lifted ? easter time

Was taken aback by the sound from his system. Sounds really good for a youtube video. The sound deadening effect feels so right!

Will do! Now let's get a few more!

Oh wow. So AMG GT is day 1 DLC after all. Also Rushy had said recently that they had improved the lighting model in tunnels. Guess that made it through

This game is going to be a digital buy for A LOT of buyers

 

[DidntKnowJack]

DriveClub is #48 on Amazon. It's making me nervous.

I don't know. I think a lot of people are going to play the PS Plus Edition, and the people getting the full game may be opting for the cheaper digital version on PSN.

 

[Seventy70]

thanks

It looks like there's a lot of input lag, but the uploader said its perfect. Hopefully its true.

 

[Konosuke]

Performance improvements eh? Someone check if they added more AA.

 

[djplaeskool]

With the PS+ edition and discounted upgrade, DC was destined to be a big digital game.
Retail sales are more or less guaranteed to be nothing to write home about.

 

[AndyD]

I don't know. I think a lot of people are going to play the PS Plus Edition, and the people getting the full game may be opting for the cheaper digital version on PSN.

Indeed. If the Plus discount existed for hardcopies you would see it higher, but a lot of people surely opted for the digital upgrade.

 

[Kyleoty]

I've got a T500RS. I'll post my impressions tomorrow...

I have one too. Im hoping to use the share button on a controller if not I will eventually get a T300

 

[bananafactory]

The sales for this game will be impossible to judge unless Sony releases data. The PS+ discount means that probably half the sales will be digital, and the fact it's free on PS+ is going to cut into a lot of purchases anyway.

 

[Guymelef]

DriveClub is #48 on Amazon. It's making me nervous.

I NEVER buy digital games at launch when it has retail version, but with DRIVECLUB and PS+ offer I made an exception.

 

[wickfut]

It looks like there's a lot of input lag, but the uploaded said its perfect. Hopefully its true.

I've noticed this a lot with PC driving games, the lag seems to be for the wheel/arm animations only.

 

[Konosuke]

The What's New section is filled with "User X is now friends with 10 people." Dat Hype.

 

[viveks86]

Performance improvements eh? Someone check if they added more AA.

Those are in 1.01, which everyone already has.

 

[nikos]

It's safe to stream right?

 

[LookAtMeGo]

IIRC, Rushy said earlier in this thread or another Driveclub thread that the tunnel lighting would look better after the patch.

This is my exact situation also

Same here.

[Jafku]

Gamefly just shipped out Driveclub for me.

 

[BouncyFrag]

Downloading at 31% and counting. I just got a ps4 and damn it's download speeds are great.
*remembers installing/downloading GTV and updates...shudders*

 

[LaserBuddha]

It's safe to stream right?

I'm under the impression that Sony isnt going to punish anyone for streaming a game once physical copies have shipped, and thus it can legitimately obtained. It would be a big debacle otherwise to punish a paying customer who likely isnt even aware of street dates, but maybe im naive.

 

[Proxy]

DriveClub is #48 on Amazon. It's making me nervous.

Racing games aren't exactly a big genre in North America.

 

[Konosuke]

Those are in 1.01, which everyone already has.

I wonder what they improved then.

 

[rnaud]

Downloaded yesterday, waiting for tonight to unlock, yay.

 

[sneaky77]

The T100 Wheel works with the ps4?

 

[El-Pistolero]

I am surprised at the lack of impressions overall. You bastards better put down the controller and get on sharing your experience with the game!

 

[Always-honest]

I NEVER buy digital games at launch when it has retail version, but with DRIVECLUB and PS+ offer I made an exception.

Same here. too good of a deal. It's never a good deal. But this is a great deal.

 

[viveks86]

The T100 Wheel works with the ps4?

Yes

 

[bananafactory]

The T100 Wheel works with the ps4?

Yup confirmed by Rushy to work with DRIVECLUB. Not guaranteed to work with all PS4 racing games....

 

[sneaky77]

Yes

for $120 that may be worth it

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Is this Driveclub wheel set available in the US??? I WANT ONE!

Its #12 on Amazon UK.
