Driveclub PlayStation Plus Edition (Out Now)

Planetside 2 and Driveclub both free* within 48 hours. Sony is the gift that keeps on giving. Great stuff. Driveclub is the real deal

* PS+ required

Planetside, in addition to all Free to Play games on PS4, do not require PlayStation Plus. Driveclub PS Plus Edition obviously does, but you do not need plus to download and play Planetside online.

Just bought the game & the season 1 pass and I love it already after 3-4 races. Now hearing about season 2? consider it day 1 purchase when that comes out.

Fantastic game.

Oh, great! You were the one who asked about comparisons between this and FH2, right? Glad you're enjoying it. Unfortunately the Season 2 stuff is just speculation right now. The current season pass runs until the next major DLC pack (out this month), so it seems likely that, with the PS+ edition out just now, a new set of content will be announced. Nothing official (apart from hints on twitter) has been announced in that regard. If one is announced I'd love to see tracks in a city and tracks in a desert with massive dunes included. Did you buy the single Ferrari? It's not part of the season pass. It is a shortcut basically, as it can be unlocked in the game for free if you play enough of the Ferrari content.

Not yet. But I might once I play more. I figured I get it anyways since they are (IMO) different type of racing games and I think the MP in drive club will be better than Forza Horizon 2.

I'm really enjoying the racing and the graphics are fantastic. The only thing I need learn how to do is drift (not good at it yet). I was going to wait for the PS+ version but wanted to take advantage of the discount it had for the main game..and to support the developer.
 
This isnt any different from normal ps plus free games in that if you dont have platform you can still get access to it by putting it on your download list? I just would like to have another game ahead of time before my ps4 purchase didn't know if this would be any different.

Why is my only option to pay $25 for this? Then there's a message saying "Upgrade to the full version for $40!" in the game's description.

Drifting is all about using the handbrake as far as I can remember

Correct. The only real difference is that the end of the window to claim this is TBA.

I don't understand why I'm excited for the PS+ version coming out tomorrow and I have the game lol. Maybe it's because more people can finally play it, idk.
 
One location is never enough! Especially how gorgeous the other locations are. This game is worth every penny.

Have to agree with you 100% on this one. Sometimes I prefer to actually buy the game rather than wait for it to go free on Games with Gold (xbox) or w/ Playstation +. This game is a good example of that.

I'm happy because its another box ticked on the 'Stuff Sony need to do' list leftover from launch.

Plus hopefully there will be loads of people really enjoying this and the Drivecult can grow.

I'm happy this is now set for release - looking forward to all the new drivers joining us in DC GAF thread

+ now threads about the latest DC update won't be full of 'where's the ps+ version' shit

YESSSSSSS!! I'm just so excited to actually finally play a broom broom game on the PS4, as long as I can get to grips with the handling I'll be grabbing the full version straight away.

It's a challenging game but I'm really glad that more people will be able pick up and enjoy this game.

At this point, the small wish I have, which may seem kind of pointless, is to have a random option on the time/weather/precipitation selection.

Now it will just be, "the games too arcade", "the game is too sim", "the game is too easy", "the game is too hard", "I'm entitled where's the rest of the game", "another game is better than this", same shit from pretty much every game related thread ever.

I'm thinking it might be wise to include a tutorial on how to take a racing line in the OT as it seems those racing lines from other games haven't worked and questions about braking and apexes appear to come up a lot.

IIRC you can do this when setting up conditions in single race mode - at least with weather and precipitation anyway.

I was so, so fortunate to get the game for free (technically). During the annual B2G1 sale at Target, I bought Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor and Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition. I decided for my free game, I'd get Driveclub, especially after seeing the first videos detailing the weather effects.

Yes - corner tutorial would help a lot of new drivers

Dreams do come true!

The game's pretty good, and has one of the most interesting DLC models I've seen (in a good way)

MFW I just spent 25 bucks on the full version 2 days ago.
Don't worry, PS+ edition is a cut down version. only 1/5 locations and 13/50 cars.

You get the hang of it.

I am am saying this as someone that really do not play racers.
 
Good lord these weather effects are just not fair. Some next level stuff.

They can be so realistic to the point where it is both fun and not fun at the same time. Seriously, try heavy snow at night. It is ridiculous. It is glorious. It is impossible.

Edit- I just realized you downloaded the PS+ Edition. The India tracks don't have snow.
 
Been playing this game since day 1 and loving it up until now. The driving model just clicks with me and I love the sound design. It's IMO the best in terms of graphics, sense of speed, engine and environmental/weather sound effects. It's just so immersive with a surround sound headset. I'm glad the Ps plus version is finally releasing and more people will get to experience this great racing game. The photomode is also quite awesome.
 
If you guys enjoy it, don't forget to buy the full version and support this great game! It really is a solid game now, has been updated a lot since release.
