I agree, in every Sony thread, I see him trolling. It's starting to get annoying.

A DRIVECLUB update from Evolution Studios - 30fps/1080p, was delayed for dynamic menu
- Thread starter bombshell
- Start date
Me too. But that's been their main focus from the start, so I guess we have to accept this game is not for us.

Criterion's Autolog is probably the most praised feature in racing games last gen. It's built entirely around constantly recording records. Whether it be your longest jump through a billboard, fastest time or highest top speed through a certain section of a track. It's always keeping track of what you and other players in the world are doing. And since racing is built around times and scores in the first place, it actually lends itself to the genre incredibly well.
Nope. I'm guessing you didn't read the OP at all actually.

Anecdotal, but I was surprised to see how many people actually liked this thing in my circle of known people. They loved to "dethrone" their friends from the leaderboard, and also seeing the stats updated very fast and easily. I'm not into that stuff, but the studio sure knows what they are doing, the market for this social stuff is growing I think.
Edit: Don't know if I was clear, but a lot of people that I know like these social things.
No different from the Sony trolls in Xbox threads. They're starting to get annoying too.
I liked it in Burnout I just feel like it's getting old and I hate the constant pop-ups about what other peoples times are and whatnot. It also makes more sense in an open-world racer I feel than a circuit racer.
I think they've already confirmed that you can turn off all that stuff in this game.

Stop being so positive, it's not very becoming of you, We must demand 60fps for everything of else it's just completely unplayable... :/

I'd agree with you, IF the other vital aspects of the game like tracks, cars, graphics, audio and so on hadn't been worked on at all since the delay. But that's definitely not the case, so pre-order not cancelled.

No it's up to sony to allow the driver and then the developer to implement it. Microsoft is the reason g27 doesn't work in forza as they wont support the driver.
I don't think it was delayed for the menu. Shu said the whole game was being redone from square one.

Autolog originated in Hot Pursuit which basically takes place on "tracks". You select a track from a menu and then you're dumped into the race. No driving around to find the races. I'd argue that it worked best in that game because of that. It's the NFS that I really put a good amount of time in trying to beat leaderboard times.
Logitech has already acknowledged that it's on them. If they make drivers for the PS4 then we'll get support. If they don't then we're screwed. Simple as that.
I agree, it needs to stop. Especially the stealth trolling.

Seems the thread title has been updated.
The social side of the game was always meant to be big so the menus should be a pretty important aspect to the game.

Noob do you even have a PS4 or X1?
Or maybe developers think, we've done racing games largely the same way for decades, let's try something a little different. Let's take advantage of the tech we have now to expand the experience.
You certainly know how to be overly bitter in just every post I see from you.
I'm holding off till the end of the year and building a PC in June.

Thank god they delayed for the menu and tablet. I would of thought it would be to get it running at a blasting 60fps.

I hope it's a really smooth/easy experience for everyone then. A socially connected racer needs to be on its A game when it comes to the social part

Well hopefully Evolution is onto something that will make team aspects worth something. I can't downplay their efforts without seeing the yields.
Leaderboards and social media stuff has always been lost on me, but if they find some way to make it compelling and interesting, then I'm all for it. I don't have the opportunity to play with my friends at the same time. If they could make being on a club rewarding regardless of those circumstances, I'm a happy camper. I still like engaging with my friends, even if we can't be on at the same time.

Just what I was thinking. It's going to be really fun competing.

Welp, that's kind of a punch in the gut for those expecting 60fps. I was sure they'd offer an option for it. Seems fine tho, but as someone who doesn't get hard over 60fps, I guess my opinion is not that valuable, especially in racing thread.

So will the Logitech wheels we already have work or not? I can't understand what exactly they meant to say.
It seems to contradict this: http://www.simdriving.net/news/all-ps3-compatible-wheels-to-work-on-ps4

So I suppose I didn't voice my opinion about the game in my post? Hmm...
My point is, basing an argument on entitlement over a product that you are still receiving strikes me as being petty. Accusing the developer of incompetence of said product without facts to support that claim makes you appear disingenuous. I understand why you are unhappy with the game being delayed, but perhaps patience and maturity are called for in this situation?

Logitech dosen't make wheels anymore, so is it safe to guess that even if sony supported the driver (which might happen) it still would not work because of logitech?

I can't recall you actually playing any game outside of the Nintendo threads. I hope I'm wrong cause this would just seem to be a tremendous waste of time for someone.

That post sounds like a cop-out. Hopefully Gran Turismo 7 will support the Logitech G27, as it seems I'll have to hold out for that. Because I can't really justify having such a badass peripheral, but using a pad for a racing game, and I also can't justify having multiple wheels in my tiny apartment.
Edit: I really hope Logitech pulls through.

Pleasantly surprised to see the Zonda R in since I remember Rushy saying that the initial launch would focus on street legal cars

It's not just a simple menu. It's collecting all kinds of data, formatting it, determining all sorts of context from the results, etc.
60 would have been nice, as an extra cherry on top. But 1080p 30fps goodness will be enjoyable. The future is so bright for the PS4.

Just stop with this non-sense...no one is forcing 60fps crowd to buy this game if you don't like 30fps. Just give it up and find some other racer that fits your criteria. The devs are doing their best to bring a great racing game and know what they need to do to accomplish their vision. Some of us love all the eye candy at locked 30fps. Let us enjoy. Enough of this 60fps begging and crying.
Really excited for more media. I hope they show full race Soony.

I know right.
Gran Turismo prior to 4 was 30fps, Forza Horizon, Project Gotham, Motorstorm, Need for Speed.
There are a ton of racers past and current that were 30fps. Seems plenty of people were able to hop in and enjoy the title.
I'd rather move onto something more substantial then talking about framerate atm. As long as it is a smooth, steady framerate that doesnt fluctuate, that is perfect.
People seem to forget we are year 1 into this system. This is a teams first experience with the hardware. They want to push the visual fidelity this time around. The next time around they will have had the engine around for awhile and will be able to spend 6 months of development time just tweaking this beautiful engine and pushing the hardware as much as they can with new techniques to squeeze some more life out of it, which could push it to 60fps next time around.
First gen folks, first gen. Fucking RELAX

This is a deal breaker.
Not too happy on having only 6 car races as well.

No doubt. You should look at noobasuar's post history.
The clubs have the 6 members limitation not the races. The races can be 6 vs. 6.
