DRIVECLUB |OT2| You Can't Rush Evolution
- Thread starter Radec
- Start date
This is what I said when I went to the evo studios to do the koenigsegg one :1 footage, the example I used was F1 games, where it will give a percentage chance of rain but no other info, even then 60% chance often didn't rain or just drizzled then stopped. It was more fun like that I'd say.
Woah, didn't realise so many people wanted this to happen. Have PMd Rushy linking back here as stuff quickly gets lost on here, hope he doesn't mind.
What I thought was something like the 0% to 100% that I mentioned but maybe also including a "Random" selection next to it that you could select so that it changed the percentage for each race, it could make it maybe 12% chance of rain one race, 65% the next and maybe 34% the next. that way you'd never really know what you were going to get in each race.

I like this idea
Oh man, I really like this game. It's just the perfect balance between sim and arcade. In more realistic racers, the sense of speed is usually lacking and the cars feel super understeery(?). Well, that's not the case with Driveclub at all. The sense of speed and grippier cars makes it more immersive and actually more "real" to me, like I'm really driving a fast bad-ass car, not skating around the track with a Lada or something.
Ok, the physics and tire models aren't that accurate I guess but I kinda like it when I'm not fighting the car so much but hitting the right lines.
If I was younger, this game would consume maybe every free hour I have but now, with work and everything, I set my wheel up every now and then and pump up the volume on my headphones and enjoy Driveclub in small chunks. (Well, I have driven some 8000 kilometers still) And I love it.
Thank you, Evolution Studios, Driveclub was my GOTY and the best racing game I have ever played.

Look. Look!!
I said more or less the same thing about the weather controls all the way back at post #12434.
Add me to the list of people in favour of this change. Lol

It really sucks that they didn't bother do add accolades for all the new content they introduced, not that it changes the game but it's a missing detail.

Random but have I ever mentioned that I really like that paint job you run with? Is that the club colours or just your own when you race online?
And you braked too early

^yeah, that would be nice... I use Dynamic usually too but it's usually 1 lap dry for every 2-4 wet (in random order), whereas I would often probably prefer the opposite ratio. really a rather small thing but I'd certainly utilize it often if it was added.

I love this game so freakin' much. I only bought this mid last month in March and I've been playing it ever since. I just finished all the Tour events and got all possible stars. I mostly play online matches, hence why I have only done these tour events now. I'm Level 38 now, but it's going pretty fast now in the tour stuff. What's the XP gap in the 45-50 levels? 500k? 800K?
Anyway, I only got the Lambo DLC so far but I regret it, because I might as well have bought a Season Pass. I just didn't know I would still be playing this game.

I never know how to properly calibrate my TV. I think it looks as it's supposed to now?

Good to finally be writing here, i really should get back to actually playing the damn game too. Online is just so frustrating in public games!
Everybody welcome makikou one of driveclubs fastest players and proof how fast the pad is, ( I still have not forgiving you for beating me on that Evo challenge
ha ) good to have you here mate. Are you getting project cars on PS4 mate? Or you sticking with PC? Haven't seen you online on Driveclub for some time.Everybody welcome makikou one of driveclubs fastest players and proof how fast the pad is, ( I still have not forgiving you for beating me on that Evo challenge
Since i backed the game on PC back in like 2011, it's for PC since they removed the ability to choose your preferred platform :/. I doubt i'll double dip onto it and i've yet to buy a wheel that supports the PS4. I have a Driving Force GT currently.
I've been spending a ton of time driving iRacing, the quality of racing is just simply amazing compared to anything else so that is the main reason why i haven't been on Driveclub.
If i come and play now, i'll embarrass myself because i'd be hella slow again. Takes a week or 2 of intense playing to get back to the decent levels of speed
Hi guys, wanted to drop my first NeoGAF post here in this thread, been lurking for some time and enjoying the Driveclub discussion and my account just got activated over the weekend. Booya!
I've been playing DC solidly since release, mostly the drift challenges, and I'm on a fair bit so if anyone wants some extra competition at drift, feel free to add me (PDogg). I am getting a little quicker and doing more TT'ing so please send me/include me on challenges for either but I don't expect to challenge most of you with my lack of speed.
Regarding the drifting; I am starting to get a little frustrated by the scoring on certain tracks, it's quite buggy with a rising score often pausing during the drift and a few corners, often middle corners in a multi-corner drift zones, regularly score very erratically from one run to the next for no apparent reason. Add that to the abuse of drift zones and clean drifting not been rewarded anywhere near enough/contact with walls not being penalised and it can be rather frustrating.That being said there's still loads of fun to be had and I'm still playing it a lot so I hope to come up against some of you soon

Hmm cant we do that already though?
Not a private match, but if we start 2 sessions filled with 6 players, and we all join the same race it should match us all up right?
Id totally be down for that

Just finished the Japan tour. Slowly catching up on the dlc. Damn my need to do everything in order with max stars!! I also hit level 50! Just the damn 5 challenges that never seems to unlock for me and maxing out rank 5 to go for the platinum!

Welcome! I'll add you for some drifting competition. The scoring is indeed frustating. Yesterday i learned that slamming into a wall is a OK thing to do. Just make the longest & fastest drift possible even if this means ending up in a wall. EVO: fix this shit! Hitting a wall must simply mean that you loose all points.

Good man. I couldn't agree more about the contact, any contact should give you zero for that corner. Drift zones should also only allow 1 drift to score to prevent people stopping half way and reversing slightly to find an angle that allows them a second drift which bumps up their score a load.
It's a real shame because when it works fine the drift events and challenges can be absolutely fantastic fun.

Hope it's OK to ask this here.
Since I bought DC(launch day) I have been getting the same three annoying notifications every few days.
"special mclaren 12c pack cannot download ",
" special ruf rt12r pack cannot download ",
etc.
How do I stop them? Thanks

They should stop when you select them and download the content. I think it's the pre-order stuff that got messed up, just go into notifications and click on them to download.
I assume they'll keep reappearing until you do that.
EDIT
Should explain that I think the issue is that the original content wouldn't download, hence the message, but it was replaced by new items which you get notifications for.

I remember there being a problem with those pre-order cars, and we got new files for them. Have you downloaded those?
If you have, try re-installing the whole game.
There are items for the original locations but nothing for Japan‽
Dafuq, Sony?

Thanks. I've downloaded everything now. I see the problem add ons (the pre-order bonuses) are listed twice though. Pity it's impossible to delete individual downloads as opposed to the whole game. I'd this doesn't work, guess I'm downloading the whole thing again.

I think I'm crazy because I thought the Laferrari was dropping today.
I think it was going to but whatever has been causing delays with this month's updates/tours/car pack has apparently delayed the LaFerrari drop as well. Kie25 mentioned it somewhere on the last page, I believe.
edit: middle of this page.

» Adds the Startline Tour. All new players will now jump into a brand new Tour when they first play the game called Startline.
» The Startline Tour is available for free and features 11 events and 45 objectives. [...].
This one seems interesting. I wonder if I'll also be able to play it? Yes, the first race in the original game was mediocre (no weather, etc), but I actually liked it as it was just a prelude to the whole game.
btw, i thought i posted here a request for Rimac Concept One... However, i checked and it seems i did not. Seems Rushy can read my mind

The Rimac is a gorgeous concept, the F40 is a legend, and new AMERICAN MUSCLE!
Just need the GT350R, GT-R, and new NSX and I can safely forget about all other racers.

Evolution keeping Driveclub on top of its game again and again.
Great idea with the new introduction tour too, first race was a little boring.

Really nice. The Ferrari collection seems to be complete, other new cars (well maybe except for VW) look nice (two muscle-cars <3), other changes are also welcome. The only thing I'm not really looking forward to that much is the buggy tour... maybe I just need to get to used to them (never played Motorstorm).
