It's amazing to think that around a year ago we hadn't even seen a multiple-car race. Now it comes down to the precision of shadows... Evolution have done an amazing job over the past year.

In fairness, there was also yesterday's controversy about whether a fireworks display would really cause the dashboard illumination to react exactly as it's depicted in the game. Clearly these are game-breaking issues.
 
Shadows or not, or whatever, IMO this is the best looking current gen game and a benchmark for all future racing games.

From power-lines to car shadows, an amazing...evolution.

I mean, listen, we're talking about shadows. Not a game! Not a game! Not a game! We're talking about shadows. Not a game; not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it's my last, not the game, we're talking about shadows, man. I mean, how silly is that? We're talking about shadows. I know I'm supposed to be there, I know I'm supposed to lead by example, I know that. And I'm not shoving it aside like it don't mean anything. I know it's important. I do. I honestly do. But we're talking about shadows, man. What are we talking about? shadows? We're talking about shadows, man! We're talking about shadows! We're talking about shadows... We ain't talking about the game! We're talking about shadows, man!

So i'd like to bring this thread back to everyday normal planet Earth where people enjoy playing Video Games.

I just wanted to say that the speed of this game looks absolutely incredible. I've played a lot of racing games in my day, and something I've noticed is that most games feel slow as hell when you're below 100mph. When I watch DriveClub videos, I can feel my body tensing up when the cars get above 80mph, and it looks freakin ridiculously fast on high speed straight aways.

I don't even own a PS4, but this will probably be the game that makes me flip.

Begone with your 'gaming' related nonsense.

We have srsbzns about shadows to be concerned about.

SHADOWS & DUST!

I think the puffs of dust look off. Not puffy or dusty enough.
 
Can't wait for the weather/photomode patch so that we can debate the geological inaccuracies of weather patterns compared to the locational norm of the areas in the game and the ISO settings of photomode compared to a professional camera set-up.

awesome, did not know this was part of the game.

That's what I thought, heh. So much discussion about.. things, and so little on the actual game :)
How far does the driver creation go?

Do you want to take a bet on someone saying it doesn't snow in India?

I believe you will not be able to select snow for India.

That MP race is quite chaotic. I also picked up something in Joystiq's stream yesterday that I also heard here, there seems to be, at high speeds, a noise. I can't tell if it is increased road noise or wind as you zoom through the air, but a nice touch indeed.

WAT?? what they promised is exactly what we are getting for day 1.. everything else like weather/photo mode/replay was never day 1.
To be fair, it's a little confusing if you're not keeping up with every bit of driveclub news. They've released tons of footage with weather effects pre-launch, so it wouldn't be crazy for someone to assume that there was weather at launch.
 
Are there microtransactions in the Plus edition? I don't really care for extra cars but I would pay 20 bucks to unlock more locations. The environments are the main things drawing me into this game.
 
So I pre-ordered on PSN and Paid for Season Pass

I hope my WiFi connection can hold out until I get a new ISP for a faster wired connection

cannot wait to get into some races. I got the season pass with the hope that other regions are being made but all I see is cars and tracks, does the tracks mean same regions of the world like INDIA and CANADA or can we expect new locations too?

Some of the 11 free tracks will be in the existing countries, but Rushy has confirmed that we are getting a brand new location too among those free tracks. 23 variations all in all.
