In calibrating a TV I've found striking a good balance between contrast and brightness is a huge part of the process, and actually the trickiest. I'd also suggest turning the sharpness way down, but keep in mind this varies from TV to TV so just experiment with it. Also, if your TV uses DNR or other filters, I'd suggest turning them off.
But I'm not an expert. There are guides online about how to properly calibrate your TV.

Well, I managed to connect to the servers tonight for the first time, ever so briefly. I'm in need of a club, so if you're looking for another member feel free to invite me and I'll join as soon as I can connect again.

I've barely done any of the solo content yet, so I've got lots of XP to contribute.

Every game should have fully remappable controls, are we in the stone ages here?
Amazon is a cesspool of fake reviews for everything, they should only allow verified purchases to leave a review. Its about as reliable as metacritic user reviews

Search for Fully Loaded under clubs.
Will do if I can connect again later tonight.

I can't drive anything but my Forza setup these days:
R2 - Throttle
L2 - Brake
Triangle - Camera
Circle - Shift Up
Square - Shift Down
X - eBrake

That Bentley event man...sigh.
That's pretty much what I use. Except I handbrake using square and leave the shoulder buttons/triggers as default. As for an Aussie club, I think I have a spot or two free in one I started... PM me your details and I'll see if there's room for you
Otherwise, check this thread. Only difference between the ones in there and the one I started is that mine's only super-casual, those others seem to be more focused on something a little more formal.NullPointer

Sometimes dirty driving isn't the answer.
Its the question.
And the answer is YES.
When I don't use the steering wheel I'm going with the default button config, but the most important thing is : the motion control.
I can't play any driving game without the motion control. Really.
Ps This game is awesome. I'm really enjoying it, even without the online component (... no comment about that...)

X for handbrake
Square to change view
Triangle gear up
Circle gear down

It's still the worst offender, because even in overcast lighting conditions they made the sun peep through a large cloud opening to blind you.

At least DriveClub has sun tuning by way of selecting time of day.
Suck it, reviewers.
Dev claims weren't that there would be no rubber-banding per se, but that the AI drivers would not be unnaturally sped up beyond the capabilities of the car. Their driving skill still seems to be pegged at a curve to the player.

Maybe they're playing the game with spotty servers, and several features disabled, that apparently has rubber-banding AI, despite dev claims.
They will slow down, yes, and it sometimes seems like they are a little overeager to do so.Is the AI really like this? That sounds like rubber-banding AI to me.

Oh yeah, sspecially in corners lol. I managed to get the mph and 1st place achievements, but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to beat that time tho
100% up and running, or did you just happen to land a game or two?
Of course they would, they want you to subscribe to PS+.

Terrible if true. You've tried joining a club without PS plus?

What do you guys think about the way difficulty is structured in tour event mode? If my assumption is correct, the game increase the ai difficulty as you progress through the events. So by the end of the game, you'll be playing in the highest difficulty level.
I'm not sure I like that. I'm a pretty casual player, when I play games, I usually just play the normal difficulty and beat the games that way. The way this game is setup, I'm not sure I can ever "beat" the game. I'm only in 2nd difficulty level in tour mode and already have problem getting 3 stars. I can't imagine playing in the highest difficulty level.
I wish it's more like wipeout where every difficulty had their own gold requirement in time trial and race.

Oh shit! Have there been any more game updates pushed out that you can tell?
This is awesome news if true!
Nope, I've subbed till 2016. But when they say all online multiplayer (besides F2P) requires a PS+ subscription, I'd expect that to cover Driveclub too.
It sounds like it getting better but still not there yet.

I don't think you ever get to play in the highest difficulty level in tour mode. I have all 225 stars in the game and I tried playing some single races in Legend difficulty, it seems harder to me than any race I drove in tour mode.What do you guys think about the way difficulty is structured in tour event mode?

So, if there are any aussies who want to join a no frills club where I'm not too fussed about whether you actually play online or not(since I don't play much myself), feel free to join my club 'JiveClub'.
Send me a PM and I'll send you an invite when I get home.

I completely dig the difficulty, but it really depends on what you're playing the game for. If it's for mission progression, ticking boxes and moving through the content as quickly as possible, then you may find it unbalanced or too hard. But I think the difficulty is perfect in pushing people to really hone their driving skills for when they (hopefully) inevitably play against others online.What do you guys think about the way difficulty is structured in tour event mode?

I think if it was any easier, then people wouldn't be pushed to retry stages to improve racing lines/techniques.

Good to see a number of Aussies popping up in this thread, too. More the merrier!

The three pre-order cars aren't really cars, but just different special liveries of existing cars already in the game.

But Sony has also made a point that the PS+ multiplayer requirement doesn't count towards asynchronous multiplayer and even ambient matchmaking. So you don't need PS+ to roam around in patrols and run into other players in Destiny - but you do for strikes and crucible. So I'd hope you could at least create and take on challenges, beat other player's ghosts, and accrue points for a club - just no real-time multiplayer events.
Unless thats changed.
