Anyone worried about DriveClub?
- Thread starter SniperHunter
- Start date
We will see. All we know, is some cars and Tracks are missing. They didn´t tell us, how many cars/tracks are in the game/missing. But if you can get all Trophys, it should have clearly more value than any kind of a demo.

I worried this is what evo will be stuck doing now instead of making more Motorstorm.

I understand NFS because it's a crazy racing game, but how can Forza "look way more fun" from the footage we have...because it had a playable demo with 5 cars on track?

Had to be a SniperHunter thread.
They already said the next video will show a proper race.
And graphical problems? lol Yeah, problem being that it looks too good.

Not seen multi car racing on actual hardware from any of the next gen consoles - if there is any could someone give me a link ?
Thinking about it we have not seen decent gameplay console footage on so many games due for release soon.
It is frustrating and a reason why I have ordered consoles only and no games 'yet'....
Heck we don't even know the final resolutions of many up coming games, never mind decent confirmed console footage (I take all E3 footage on equivalent hardware with a pinch of salt.)
Maybe I am being a bit pessimistic ...

exactly my thoughts. i know the gaming public is craving for footage of all the anticipated new titles, but i don't expect evolution or any other studio to have releasing direct feed gameplay videos on a top spot on their to do lists this close to launch. it's four weeks to the ps4 launch, so driveclub should be close to being gold status and i expect new videos soon after reaching that milestone.
You'll be able to play with up to 12 players online in the final version. You don't always have to play solo races.

Well forza has drivertard ai which sounds way better than rubber band ai and it also has 23 other cars on screen...I want to see the ai in dc. I hope dc doesn't have rubber band ai!!!

Well those games are sims so they are pretty boring. I'd take driveclub over them any day simply because it's more arcadey.
Where has it been stated that Driveclub has rubber band AI? What do you mean?
Facts... All Facts.

How am I trolling? I am the biggest playstation fan, I created this thread cause I was playing motorstorm 2 last night. I haven't even played a single forza game...
And all my concerns are legit. They need to show some racing gameplay

You're not gonna get 23 cars on track for DC, it's road racing not F1. But now I understand why parts of the Prague track were wide enough for 3 cars.

I'm worried with the lack of news. 
Yes that's what I was thinking of, he didn't use the words "quick cut", I stupidly put words into his mouth. I wonder if that is why people had a problem with my post.
Wrong. The playable build at the Eurogamer Expo had two cars onscreen, yours and a ghost car, so that's one more than you say

It will get the attention that comes with being a launch title but I'm guessing people will have forgotten about it a year from now.

Im also a little bit worried about the standard race (wit more then one car). Hope they are capable of put everything with that qualitiy at those races.
But the graphics and details are already gorgeous enough to me (maybe just some more polsihment).
Edit:
But its also good to remember that the game is free to play, for PS+ subscribers. Also, it stills looks very well done by what was already presented.

Well I guess that depends on the ability of your friends really! Unless you meant 'Driveatar'
Also not sure where you got the idea of 23 other cars on screen as well....
I have no reason to be concerned about a game I get to basically play for free, I get to play it, and then make my decision as to where my money goes.
If its not up to snuff, then I dont worry about it...if it is, then I dont worry about it. Plenty of games to be played, at launch and beyond.
Trying to decide where to plunk my $60 for a launch FPS is more worrisome, do I trust BF4 to not need 12 patches to be close to right? will COD just be the same thing I've played and sworn off 5 times before? Will KZ finally nail it? (Im leaning KZ).
My gut feeling, Driveclub is pure hotness, eye candy, and fun...they've been quiet, I take that as a good thing. Those who worry build hype.

Whatever the name, it sounds really awesome. Rubber band ai needz to die!!

Umm is your head in the sand? GT6, F5 heck even GT5 and F4 are still kicking then we have game like NFS: MW, GRID,F: Horizon. Between now and next spring there will be a surfeit of better racing games; simulators and arcade racers, all with real brands that would be better choices than DC.To name a few, GT6, F5, NFR: R, The Crew, Asseto Corsa etc.
yeah, sure.

Good move by Sony
I don't know why you automatically think he's bullshitting.
I'm a PS fan and I don't like Killzone, GoW, LittleBigPlanet and InFamous.
Understandable really. This thing is launching in just over a months and we still haven't seen any real decent footage of Driveclub, Killzone or BF4, etc.
It's really getting annoying and damn time that we'll get some quality footage out there that shows more than the one track/vertical slice that have been demo'd over and over again.
Pretty much. Really annoying.
I'm not really invested in DC so I don't really care, but the game seems to get significant improvements with every video released. Launch is awfully close, I don't know when they need to start pressing disks, it can't be too far away now.
I'll be getting the free version with + anyway, so that will be a good way to judge if it's worth a full purchase.

Very true, hadn't even thought of that with it's uploading of ghosts. Was quite a good feature letting you watch how they had approached certain tracks and corners.

No not at all,This is a Launch Game, they will not have the time to keep bringing versions and videos out to satisfy the hunger for the latest tweak/updates etc.
When ever you get near Deadline on a software release you have to ignore all other factors and knuckle down. If anyone has worked in software it always goes like this, the effort/the light goes on, it kind of all clicks, and every day/hour matters at this point.
This is why you will be seeing PC versions shown so much at demo's as they will be a lot older and more stable/this is the development environment so easier to just chuck in a setting and demo something. This will be true of most of the stuff seen Watchdogs/Ryse/Bf4/DriveClub yes even Killzone, don't mistake just because a game is only on a console that any version shown is console it does not work like that.
Everyone needs to calm down, all these games will look as close to as better as the "PC" versions we have seen so far, we only have just over 4 weeks to go!
