DRIVECLUB only features real world licensed cars, so there won't be any MotorStorm-esque boost or nitro system in the game.

And to confirm everything you see is work in progress, so hopefully every new screenshot or video will look better and better as we get closer to launch early next year. We're working hard to add as much polish as we can across the entire game, but I can't talk about features just yet.

And by the way, expect some more clips reasonably soon

Dude... why are here posting if you have a newborn? Spend time with the newborn... unless you're taking a break from the new born.

Regardless... thank you. The game is looking fantastic and fun. Please deliver on the "challenge" mechanics.

Damn, these short but SWEET videos are really getting me more hyped.

Looks wonderful.

Dude, he needs to feed his newborn, remember?

I saw 2, maybe 2.3 cars in that trailer. Please someone tell sniperhunter

To confirm there is no artificial catch-up in DRIVECLUB. The AI can only drive as fast as a human, so there is no cheating what so ever.

In the Kyle video you just saw, just before the clip begins I along with the AI in front make a mistake allowing the AI further behind to catch up down the long straight and fly by.

This is wonderful news! Rubber-band AI was my only major complaint in the Motorstorm series (other than the original Motorstorm having loading times from hell )

 

[uncharted86]

Damn it looks good. It's great to see the AI is aggressive too, I hate the passive AI in GT.

Thank you so much for all the additional information. It is above and beyond what I expect, and the honesty and information that you've provided has definitely made this game a contender.

With each new tidbit, I am closer to pulling the trigger.

 

[bigboss370]

I am not saying this in a bad way at all but we have not so big devs like,Evo,Ready at Dawn,and Suckerpunch making such amazing looking games its pretty crazy.

they're elevating their game...dat #playstationfamily

 

[viveks86]

So the driver is going at a little more than 220 KPH when the first car flies past him like a rocket. What speed would that be???? :O

Can you talk about what AA method you will be using for the game?

I approve of this post.

Drive Club looks really amazing. Worth the delay I say...

 

[Hydrargyrus]

If this, finally, comes at 60fps... well, I think I would have enough for the entire gen

Oh you

Btw rushy i am sorry about laughing about the delay and i am sorry if my thread caused any hardships the day your baby was born. But i knew something.was up ;p

Also all that stuff about crow eating etc was very childish

 

[nowheretorun]

Just noticed how the red car lifts off the ground after overtaking and then lands with a real feel of weight. Astonishing game.

Yeah it's awesome. You can even see a small whiff off smoke which flies straight into the car behind (main car on screen)

 

[AstroNut325]

True... but I would think Sony offers a pretty decent benefits package. At least with the high profile dev houses like Evolution.

 

[viveks86]

LMAO! But seriously, can anyone hazard a guess? Also, what car is that?

True... but I would think Sony offers a pretty decent benefits package. At least with the high profile dev houses like Evolution.

Yeah I'm sure. He is back from paternity leave, right? Would be work as usual from now on. And for game devs, unfortunately, that includes slogging on weekends...

Awww... Even if Rushy doesn't forgive you, I do (not that it matters). Remember I told you that I will take you down in friendly fire on killzone multiplayer? I take that back. Consider yourself redeemed!

 

[Yeah_its_Bob]

Believe in Evo they always show up at the end. Delay was well deserved.

 

[Giant Panda]

Obviously Rushy can't talk about features yet because they're waiting to see if adding in hurricanes for weather is possible in addition to the already implemented snow, rain, hail, tornadoes with dynamic tree breakage, and thunderstorms.

He doesn't want to get our hopes up by saying hurricanes are in, and then not have them make it into the final game.

To me it looks like a Benz from the tail section but the video is too blurry to be exact.

 

[gruenel]

No rubberbanding/nitrous is such good news. Also, dat new vid. Hype is approaching roof levels. Well done Evo.

 

[viveks86]

Guys, I'm not able to stop watching this video. Would really like to see some trolls here try to burst my hype bubble. Please?

During the reveal there was an Arial Atom type car, I forget it's name, but it's a new rival to cars like the Atom, Caterham 7, KTM X-Bow etc.

Will these sorts of cars be in the game, it would be cool to see the suspension working on the undulating stages. You also state hot hatches will be in, will these be cars like the Golf, Focus etc., or higher end models like the AMG Mercedes A45?

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

looks better for sure. game looked pretty ugly in the last build i saw. they need to do one of two things to make this a stunner though, imo. either hit 60fps, or eliminate a lot of the aliasing. if the IQ is razor sharp, 30fps would be ok.

 

[gruenel]

Could be a C63 AMG Black Series from the looks of the spoiler/tail lights/chrome strip on the back of the car, but yeah it's blurry so I'm just guessing.

 

[jacksepticeye]

I'm glad to see the delay is showing some improvements. The lighting looks very nice indeed.

When the first car zooms by, it has that distinct clickedy clack of a roller coaster. Anyone notice that? Could cars sound like that at that speed?

Haven't they done that already?

 

[Tsundere]

That is really impressive. Great work on #DRIVECLUB @Rushy!

 

[viveks86]

For those who didn't notice Rushy's twitter - this Scottish track is called 'The Kyle'

 

[Racer1977]

Could be anything, like hitting the rev limiter, touching the guard rail etc, it's not a pure engine sound.

 

[Zen]

It's not the good laps that bother me. It's no real punishment for fucking up I hated, takes away any of the tension. Also don't know how you deduced from my post that I must suck, but whatever.

Eh fair enough. I found myself blowing a turn and basically having to forego a top 3 finish (on the harder races) but to each their own. I never found the Ruber banding to be too much of an issue.

[orioto]

Btw a gif like that everryday till the release would be great

 

[GHG]

The sound of the Bentley speeding past is godlike. The graphics are stunning. It'll be an audiovisual tour-de-force.

I'll get this game the day it comes out, close the door, dim the lights, turn the surround sound up to 100 and make smooth love to my PS4.

 

[Zekra Dezivad]

gaf always deliver

 

[HawksWinStanley]

I can't believe how good this looks. I'm a huge fan of GT and Forza but I'm more excited for DC than I am for GT6 or F5.

 

[TEH-CJ]

omg I died lmao.

 

[SniperHunter]

Yea this game looks better than both. I do like the cartoony visuals of forza though (the e3 track looked great)


The footage is short but the jump in quality is massive! Evo werent doing.this game any.favours by showing that boring.time trials footage over and over. I wish i had a computet i would love to compare all the builds

 

[TheRealTalker]

the game is just cruising along nicely

good luck guys

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you don't have kids...

@ATorontonian @tduckteam We learned a lot of lessons from MotorStorm, but we've written the AI from the ground up for #DRIVECLUB

Whole video in gif:

Love how there's so much detail in the environments that are way off in the distance. I think I saw a fog layer in the distance.

I'm definitely interested in this now. The delay seems like it's going to be worth the wait.

Thank you so very much for the update Rushy

 

[Windom Earle]

nvm, already clarified.

 

[sneaky77]

Are there going to be longer races or is everything going to be 2-3 laps where you start near the end and you have to bump your way to the front?
