Hey I want in!!! Edit: You can include just Jimmy if you want, doesn't have to be the whole avatar!
 
I want in on the hype car. I can't wait for this game. Got about 3-4 hours off tomorrow morning. Going to put so much time into this.

I only want to be on the hype car if the metacritic average tomorrow is above 80.

put me on.
 
This pic is disappointing, I was told there would be 100 observatories in the game and I see way less than that in the corridor.

Preorder cancelled

hey GAF,

How do I start the preloading ? I bought the PS+ upgrade a week ago and got a mail yesterday saying I don't have enough credit on my PSN wallet. I added the credit right after reading it but they haven't charged me yet.

Any light for me ?

Here are two excellent video's taken by someone who went to the Evolution Studio's DriveClub event yesterday. The video is taken off-screen with a camera, but is good quality.

First video shows off the Photo Mode, which looks to be spectacular. Free roaming camera, go anywhere on the track.

Second video shows off weather (rain in this case). The track starts dry and you can see the rain form puddles and the track get slick as the race goes on. The rain with the Sun peaking through the clouds at times is gorgeous.

No wonder people complain about the cars looking like they're floating on the track. The first video shows they clearly are!

So what's the deal with the weather effects in this game. I remember reading where they weren't going to make it at launch. Was that just a rumor?

For those that are buying the T100 or similar, what wheel stand are you getting? I sold my fanatec wheel since no compatibility and the stand went with it

Rushy just responded to me on twitter! It`s amazing how much time he spends on the community support!

Thanks for the update mate.

I wonder if Rushy would clarify if that means an actual lobby system is likely to come with a patch or whether it simply means adding friends/club only versions of the pre-defined events.

The former would be great, especially if the host tools are robust.

The accessibility and longevity of the community as well as the social elements of online racing generally are hugely enhanced by a lobby system that encourages good hosts and gives them the right tools to promote good, fun racing (be that rough and ready or clean as a whistle).

Oh, and since Evolution have said they are adding replays to single-player perhaps if lobbies are added they might consider adding a post multi-player race review system. It would be a fantastic inclusion and a real boon for those dedicated regular lobby hosts out there.

Here's a better idea!

1) Add DRIVECLUB-GAF to your PSN friends list
2) Add everyone who shows up under its friends list
3) Profit!

Superlative!

Thanks le-seb.

I haven't been this excited for a racing game in a long time.

Just loving next gen graphics, can't wait to see this on my tv at home.

Super excited for this one. It's one of the reasons I bought a PS4 in the first place, I've been waiting for so long. Only half a day left!

Me too. Wasn't even going to get one until this week. Wife got me one for Father's Day months ago. The wait has been killing me.

There's only so much Killzone and MotoGP I can play...

AFAIK, if you get such an email, your order is cancelled and you need to order again after refilling. When you go to the store, don't you have the option to purchase the game anymore?

Yes, I`m still asking myself what to make of this tweet. It could mean that a lobby system is coming. But maybe they are just working on punishing the crash kiddies more? I don`t know :( I really hope they are working on private lobbies for great club races. I still don`t understand how such a system isn`t implemented in a game where driving together is the key!
