Best pure racer I've played in years. That's even without the online components.

It worked for me, maybe you chose a track where you already set a time.

Can confirm. It's tight.
Seems people still want to get it on disc

Hmm, got those instructions off playstationtrophies, and it worked first time I tried it. =\
I agree with this.

One would assume server provisioning is Sony's responsibility, but in terms of what is deployed to them, that would be Evo's doing.

I like it a lot so far and I'm not even into racing games.

Some spectators. Look how the light beams cast shadow on people when you are close to fence and little and a little further from the fence :
I like Billy Balloon Pits best.

Yeah, I have had that happen also.
I've noticed in the faster cars, the AI wrecks itself quite often, pretty funny to see.

Dude... so I was in first place on an India event the AI does a PIT maneuver on me and my car hits a side wall slope causing it to fly in the air and does at least 5 360s in the air before crashing onto the top of the hood and slide down the road a good 100ft for my car to only to keep getting slammed by all the AIs passing me. My car resets of course but on the hood instead of on its wheels.
I wish I knew how to work the share feature properly because it was crazy.

No need for that, he has a valid complaint.

Why are reflections all squiggly? They don't even look low-res, just distorted.
Time trial course from the main menu, and not from the tour events, right?

Kind of boring in the first bunch of cups. I turned the music on and that was even worst. Point to point tracks are boring straight corridors. I agree with de "soul-less narrative".
I felt impressed for the graphics only the first 30 minutes. Some light conditions are very annoying
On the other hand, great sense of speed, tight handling.

If you haven't played the lottery today yet, then you wanna do that my friend. I was connected quite a few times, once almost for 3 consecutive hours!

Dodgy paintwork/polish job on the cars (I don't know)
I haven't had chance to play today, being concentrating on Uni work while the servers have been on the fritz, and I'm missing it. I see those screengrabs of Canada and I just want to race.
I'm at work tomorrow though, can't set my head buzzing this close to bedtime. It's probably going to be Sunday before I get a sniff of the game, hopefully it will all be working by then.

I love how the rear-lights of the car ahead of me (night-time) light up my cock and dash. I've never seen that before. Definitely getting the season pass for this game. Voting with my wallet.

Lol. People on the FB page are legit saying they paid $50 for a year of PS plus just to get the PS+ edition of Driveclub.
Why wouldn't you just buy the full game? Or just buy a month of plus for the free version?

An update: called 1-855-999-7669, spent about 3 minutes on hold before connecting, and after 5 minutes of talking the guy said he will give me a refund even though PSN sales are all final. It will take 3-5 business days to process and go back into my PSN wallet.
So pretty painless, good game but I can't support a game that launches with completely broken multiplayer support. I don't blame the devs, maybe they bit off more than they knew how to handle or something, but Sony should have done a bigger public beta test and helped them at launch for what is supposed to be their big AAA driving game.
I'm 0/2 for PSN digital preorders so far. Destiny was a huge bust, pre-ordered PS3 version wanting to play PS3 & PS4 at launch and had to wait almost a full day to get PS4 version and the game has been underwhelming. Driveclub is, well, Driveclub.
heh cock

I can get their frustration. I want to play the ps+ edition badly but I'm not hung up on making a big deal about it.
Sony/Evo blew it through
Pretty damn good. First race is kinda 'eh'. Then things start to heat up.
-Unreal sense of speed (and I only have hatchbacks haha)
-Lighting is phenomenal. Yes you get blinded sometimes. Welcome to the real world.
-Exciting scenery/locations
-Mostly beautiful graphics. Once you start driving though everything is beautiful.
Once I noticed I was barreling down a narrow indian street with the sunset at 120mph, I was hooked.
Get better at it then. Nailing a perfect drift = sogood.gif
Agreed...game is fun as (whatever you think is a lot of fun )
Its fun to just hot lapthe tracks, right now i dont even miss the multiplayer
Edit; i will eventually

Yeah, I had to hold down the power button for a few seconds to reboot my PS4 yesterday when it was halfway trying to connect to the servers.
Just connected for the first time!
Disconnected 5 minutes later
I did the trophy in a tour event time trial.

Yes this racing game gives me also the sense of speed. Like real speed when you getting a faster car. Just the whole atmosphere is amazing and also the engine sound oh lawd in 5.1 it's amazing.

I haven't even been doing real races. Just time trials, learning the tracks, chasing my ghost, trying out different time/weather variants. 5+ hours of that stuff and not even bored, that's how addicting the driving is.
