Never been so excited for a game on a system I don't own lol I have it pre-ordered and can't wait to pick it up (MotorStorm Pacific Rift was so boss). I could get PS4 with it as well but don't want to hurt wife's feelings cause I know she has a PS4 for me as a gift (it's in her closet, I've seen it haha), not sure when I'll get it though lol

Just tell her that someone sent you a game and you wish you had a way to play it.

Question for the gear guys.... Is there a racing wheel that is PS4/X1 compatible that will allow me use it with DriveClub and Forza Horizon 2?

Why are you reading my tag instead of the title of my post?
What about blizzards at night on that road? Jesus.
I've been in zero visibility fog before. You can't see. How do you drive? At 20mph. This game already has footage that's actually scared me before with the speed. The next generation of horror games for me is going to be VR + Zero visibility racing.

Is there any way that you guys can buy me a ps4 + driveclub? PM me pls.

Driveclub is the most photorealistic driving game I've seen since gaming. The project cars stuff is awesome too and at 60fps. But hell if this isn't just jaw dropping every time.




Have they modeled the undercarriage suspension?

I have no idea how GT7 is going to trump this, but.. my body is ready.

the only visually off putting thing about DC is that due to the suns position sometimes the cars shadow is completely hidden by the car itself, and it looks like the car is not really placed on the track.. you see it a lot here. I get why it looks like that but it still looks weird.
 
Have they annouced the first DLC pack?

In terms of which cars will be in it? Nope, but this is the schedule

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.
It's taking shape people!

Has fog been confirmed? How about morning mist?
 
Looking at the native gamersryde videos the anti-aliasing is very good, with a few exceptions which catch the eye: (these are 4x expansions of native captures)

Wires are a challenge, no doubt.

As for the car, the high contrast boundary between rear window and roof is perhaps because it is deemed to be "in focus" and not subject to any temporal blur or focus blur it appears to be entirely without anti-aliasing. It is the most constantly visible "jaggy" that some people are going to obsess over. That same pixel staircase is not elsewhere on the car body.

Anyway, the video looks fantastic! you can certainly find sparkling elsewhere in certain track-side elements at certain times, but its very very minor.

Jesus Christ be careful with that! I almost cut myself scrolling through the page.

Interesting that it seems to use a blur-based DoF instead of a more modern bokeh DoF. You'd think with all of the amazing graphic effects in the game, that one would have been a shoo-in.

That's just a really ugly implementation of DOF.

Going to preorder tonight... this is the most exciting game for me this year. My only gripe is that I don't have a wheel for it (just got a G27), which is almost a killer blow, but i'll play it with the controller like I always have.

The PS plus version (as long as its not an excessive download) will tide me over for a few days until the full retail version gets to my door.

I can't even imagine the graphical improvement Driveclub 2 is going to have... lets have it in Hong Kong with tropical typhoons, Nepal with heavy ice blizzards, Florida with crazy hurricanes. I want to see Africa as well.

Oh I'll be getting the US version but I'm on AU PSN, is that going to be a problem? Will I be able to buy the DLC? I do have a US account, but its my secondary one.

This is the only game that can pull me away from Destiny. Hoping I can end as a Level 29/30 Guardian before this game comes out.
 
I seriously cannot wait for this, and I'm not even into racing games. The graphics and the sole idea that this might be a PGR (the only racing series I've been able to enjoy these racent years) spiritual successor have me sold on DriveClub.

Just watched all the Gamersyde videos on my Kuro plasma tv, wow what a difference from my iMac.. looks even more amazing than before.

If you have access to play these on a good tv.. do it. Hard to explain.. its not just the larger screen.. the video quality has way more pop to it.
 
I came pretty close to pre-ordering the game tonight, in the store looking at its page and everything, but the prospect of the PS+ demo got me to decide against it. I probably would have pulled the trigger if that chunk of the game weren't going to be available to try out. I'm pretty much the worst possible consumer for them in this situation.

Must be reviewers or game devs/testers. What level are you at now?

15 but I'm taking it slow.

It's gonna be hard to establish a set look for your club early on. Club design unlocks keep getting more varied and cooler.

I'm shooting for that retro, polygonal look of the wipeout decals for AG systems. But I'm a little limited right now so I'll just lay off the looks and keep racing.

I definitely want to play a new racing game on next gen, but seriously torn between Driveclub and Forza Horizon 2.

I like Driveclub because it definitely seems "next gen" to me and not hamstrung by being crossplatform. But, I also want Forza Horizon 2 because I loved the open world feel in the first game.

Help me!
