There are days I wish I was better at Driving games... But I really suck.

DC really looks amazing, and the amount of content added across the months has been pretty great it seems.

Sounds fantastic.

Are the expansions free? Usually the paid ones have 4+ cars, noticed the one listed only has 2.

THAT TRAILER


My GOD. That trailer deserves it's own thread. Why hasn't Evolution made a spiritual successor to Blur using the Drive Club engine and the existing cars? PLEASE EVOLUTION PLS.
 
Sounds great. Can't wait for the handling assist options (yay for actual drifting).

I didn't know all of the tracks would be in the same city. That's a little disappointing, I would have loved cities like New York, Tokyo, London (for that PGR feel) to have been included, but oh well.

Hnnngh, that trailer. R34 looks beastly.
 
This can't be free. It's free? Well regardless, hoping there's a season 2. I very much enjoyed Driveclub during its first year out. Would definitely like the game to get new content continuously rather than a sequel.

Best wishes.

One of this generations best games, no question for me.

I'm ok with not having a Drive Club 2. I think the current model of working content into the game has been excellent. I don't just mean for free either. I bought the base game, the season pass and I intend on buying Bikes, and if they sell a "Season 2" season pass with another 2 years of content I'd buy that day one as well.

My question is how they make enough money off the current model.
 
Sorry, I haven't really kept up withthe updates, but is this new content still covered under the season pass?

I pretty sure the "Bikes" was seperate from th pass, right?
