Probably not if you race with GAF members / teams?

A few thousand more pages talking about shadows.
That driving...
Turrible.
It sure can. They have said they are looking to expand the game in the future based on community feedback. They are already bringing photo mode and replay mode as free patches based on feedback.
Isn't the crew a ubi game?
Motorstorm pacific rift is one of my all time fav games on ps3 so this game is in good hands.

Just don't leave your window open.
Oh goddam. i don't want this to happen to my IRL car.
i would be so angry.
Oh boy, I'm guessing everyone will run into assholes like these soon. Nice to see a balance in MP.

It is, I've not seen much hype for it. I was kinda curious for it, the reveal made it look quite good - but having played the beta, I shall politely decline that game.
Are you playing online and can you do single races or tournaments with a number of races in them without having to be part of a club? Or do u have to race in a club all the time? It's just difficult to meet up all the time and race together.

Pretty quick. The first loading was like 30s, but now it's just the average load time.
Niiiiiiiice!
It's confirmed that it unlocks at midnight? I only saw the play at midnight message for Alien Isolation when I was on the PSN store last night.
I'm just sceptical of a lot of ubi soft games as their game design is kinda by the numbers. Not saying driveclub is a revolutionary racing game but I'm liking what I see in these screens and videos a lot.

That's certainly true. I was taken aback a little when the car almost immediately ghosted when he was spun out though.
Thankfully, there seems to be a small window where you can correct the car yourself, but it's pretty aggressive in making sure you don't stray too far from how it wants you to play.
Not a big issue, but some leeway would have been nice.

Sadly not, I'll get my review copy sometime next week
lol, I hope you're playing the game right now, and that all your training will be able to make up for my shitty driving
But I can (and probably will) work on my driving in Motorstorm Apocalypse (does that count?
), although, I'm already in the middle of the second "campaign" and it's getting kinda hard.Always-honest

In the Joystiq stream, they close and relaunch the game here: http://youtu.be/VtaT43vInCY?t=7m30s
Less than 30 seconds to the first menu.

I would assume it would! Is this not the case? Why have a pre load if you can't play it at midnight? Does anyone know the answer? I was just assuming lol
I sure hope so. I just found it odd that Alien Isolation would have the midnight ET message and not Driveclub. Both have the preload message though...

Quickly googling
http://www.playstationlifestyle.net...tion-store-playstation-plus-members/#/slide/1
That site says play at midnight pst
I'd say that I have no clue how people play with views like the in-the-car one. I always go either third person or the one where you're juar hovering over the track and see nothing of your car, depending on the game.
And man, the Cube hate.
I have one in real life and love it to death. I'd be ecstatic if they added it to the game. It would go well with CuteClub that I created last night in the game.mangochutney

It has some really good points. The map is freaking huge, and I mean huge and there are some really nice winding routes between city locations, as well as a few race tracks that you can go on, but you can't 'race' in the proper sense from what I could see.
For me there was just too many numbers flying everywhere, didn't feel very coherent and the whole 'crew' aspect just didn't come across at all, compared to the club aspects of this game, or Horizon.
That either shows how well Evo has pulled off that aspect of the game, or how poorly Ivory Tower have executed it.
I wouldn't say it is comparable to this game at all, DRIVECLUB is far more compelling.
Nice to have another game where you can turn the HUD off completely, or certain elements only, though.
Yes, and that's SO cool!
From cold start to actual racing in less than 2 minutes: THIS is next gen!

It is ridiculous, yep. But Infamous First Light didn't unlock until the middle of Tuesday - not midnight.

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

Tried the multiplayer today and hmm, I can't really judge it right because of how low the player count on there is at the moment, I want full rooms but I keep getting into rooms with only a few people, sometimes one even. However, I am glad to say that the online is REALLY smooth and I had fun, apparently you get shown events that refresh for new ones if what is displayed is not to your liking. Already I have been getting club invites, challenges from people and what not which really kept me engage in going at different things within the game. I think the only disappointment this game has is in the customization, It's very limited however, it can be easily fixed with updates and such.
Also, please Sony release dat DLNA so we could play our custom soundtracks! aside from that, game is a ton of fun and plays great. It looks incredible and I think people should leave the judging to the people who own the game. Trust us when we say it will look INCREDIBLE on your displays, it's the reason why I'm taking a shit ton of pics. I can also confirm that there is no city track, as far as i'm concerned the buildings are just in the background. I'll leave you all with moar pics!

This is going to suck if this is the case with DC. Why not release a first party title at midnight? Derp

Does anyone know if we can pre-load the game tonight at midnight? PSN just says October 5th, but no specific time.

I listened to "how fast do you want to go" in my car on the way to work this morning. It was a bumper to bumper crawl.

So, this might be a dumb question, but, are you forced to be a white guy in this one? Or, rather, is there any driver customization?
Its a small thing, since I know there's no story, but, that's a little problem I have with the Horizon games, that, I'm surprised they didn't change with the second game.

I was blasting "get out of my dreams, get into my car"
True next gen is when Sony brings the suspend/resume feature. #soony

BTW, thanks for adding me Vivek, and others. I look forward to racing with you.
May be your TV, because it is really smooth for me. I'm used to 144Hz and 120 Hz with Lightboost and this is really really smooth for me. Impressed how smooth 30fps can look.
Aaaand btw: I got it, thank you, random shop in Hamburg. If someone wants it and lives near Hamburg, I can give you the name and address.
Now I have to unlock moar cars, even tho it's almost 3am here.
Nice!
