So after fighting ...i decided TO STOP AND LOOK AT THE PURCHASE SCREEN FOR THE BIKE ADD ON. Says 10/29/15.....so i assume us in NA cannot download till then.

Kinda lame considering during the Conference he didn't say crap about Euro only....cool for you guys....but they could said for euro only... and NA on the 29th. Went from HELL YEA to 2DAYS.....ARRRGGGGHHHH

It's on the US store. https://store.playstation.com/#!/en...sion/cid=UP9000-CUSA00093_00-XXXXXXXXXDCBIKES

 

[nib95]

Awesome shots dude. So you don't get bike vs car races, just bike versus bike? I'd prefer the latter.

 

[danowat]

How many bikes?

Buying asap

12.

 

[CHC]

Ugh, I used to ride like that on roads...now it gives me the chills.

haha.... me too, a few years ago. I had a Ducati 748S and I TORE it up just like those guys. In hindsight it was completely stupid, but man... what a thrill. It's weird how once you get comfortable riding like you're in a race, it really doesn't feel dangerous at all.

 

[Summer Haze]

Awesome shots dude. So is this a complete standalone? You don't get bike vs car races, just bike versus bike? I'd prefer the latter.

Thanks, and yeah it's the the latter.

 

[Falchion]

That's cool but I'll be waiting until it's on sale since I just got the season pass a few weeks ago.

 

[nib95]

Thanks, and yeah it's the the latter.

Cool. For a second I thought it was a standalone purchase that still intertwined with the main campaign. Good to know it's completely separate.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Can we do this?

Deciding factor in if I boot it up or not...

 

[Super_Cobra]

So stand alone game? I only have the ps+ version of drive club and although I don't play it, I would love to have the bike expansion.

Thats funny cuz I had a '99 748 back in the day too, lol. I have a 1098 now but I keep it a bit more sane on the roads.

 

[Mr. PlayStation]

Awesome shots, I've sent you a couple of challenges!

 

[Freeman]

Noice! This was very clever take that reviewers.

Then you have incredible discipline, truly. The problem is just that these aren't machines meant to putter around at 50MPH on - they come into their element at like at least 80 MPH and up, so it's just so hard to help yourself.

But anyway - ride safely and enjoy yourself. That's a great bike.

 

[TheDangerMan]

Thinking about grabbing this - does it support private lobbies or is that not in yet?

 

[NullPointer]

Does this integrate smoothly within the existing DC, or do DC owners have to run it as a separate game?

Or, to put it differently, is this standalone ala Infamous: First Light, or integrated+stand alone like Killzone: Shadowfall's Intercept co-op mode?

Its well integrated into existing DC - you select the Drive option, then presented with DriveClub or DriveClub Bikes - then under the bikes menu you have the same layout as for cars - i.e. tour, single event, random event, challenges, multiplayer.

Its got new accolades that are integrated with the existing ones, and of course all fame still goes to you and your club, and progress on bikes also contributes to location, etc accolades as well.

 

[Stevey]

Surely this should be called Rideclub?

 

[Arturo]

I got driveclub in the month of release on disc and bought the season pass but the expansion at 14.99 is unavailable for me because i dont own driveclub? does it need me to own it digitally?

I'm having the same problem. I'll be bummed if this isn't an error.

I also have the physical version and the season pass and just bought it at the discounted price. EU here. It looks like a problem with the US store.

 

[OccamsLightsaber]

If anyone's interested in my stream. https://youtu.be/Lz6iAF6iYiA

 

[DangerMouse]

Was looking for this in my images folder

Bikes are integrated just as how it was done in Burnout Paradise, except you can't have bikes vs car races. Someone correct me if i am wrong

Perfection.

 

[v1ncelis]

Bought! Now waiting for update. PSN and it's glorious download speeds never gets old.

 

[Mr. PlayStation]

Perfection.

Null if you enjoyed the core game, and if you happen to enjoy bikes in real life, then you're for sure to get the thrill out of riding these bikes in the expansion.

 

[double jump]

I should have brought this instead of zombie trilogy today. DC ain't my favorite racer but those bikes look awesome.

 

[djjinx2]

DRIVECLUB Bikes - Norway Snow - No HUD

Wipeout!

 

[lcap]

Guys, how do I buy this expansion? I have the disc version and it says it's not available for purchase.

 

[Mokubba]

It has a platinum trophy

Aiming for the plat. Hopefully it's not too hard.
Took care of the Challenge Accepted trophy before it started bugging me.

Loving it so far.

 

[Primethius]

Loving the bikes. God, they feel super intense.

Easiest buy ever.

 

[Darien]

Loving it!

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Guys, how do I buy this expansion? I have the disc version and it says it's not available for purchase.

Evolution says they're working with SCEA to fix the issue.

 

[Wolfe]

I honestly watched the video expecting bicycles, you know.....bikes. Instead, what I got was motorcycles. Not the same thing. I hate it when people use the word "bikes" when what they really mean is "motorcycles". Use a different word.....like "mikes".

If you honestly thought it was about bicycles in a car racing game, that's on you

As someone that rides a motorcycle/motorbike/bike I agree that it can be confusing at times.

 

[seabass0]

Could someone list the Makes/Models of the 12 bikes?

 

[Shaneus]

Just wondering... what are the pricing tiers for this? I see there's the full standalone, there's the add-on price, but is there a special PS+ subscribers price too? I'd think if we bought the full game digitally and have an active PS+ sub, there'd be an additional discount.

Can we do this?

Deciding factor in if I boot it up or not...

I just found a brand new trailer Evo must've knocked up for the bikes addition to DC!

 

[Mr. PlayStation]

Could someone list the Makes/Models of the 12 bikes?

You have the BMW bike that Sir Tom Cruise rides at insane speeds by himself in Mission Impossible rogue Nation, you've got Kawasaki's Ninja, Hondas,Ducatis, Yamaha R1 and even an MV F4 Augusta!

 

[Mr. PlayStation]

Could someone list the Makes/Models of the 12 bikes?

Oh and I forgot there's that KTM and Bimota bikes

 

[seabass0]

Thanks!

 

[AgentOtaku]

Okay, cool then

 

[King Gilga]

I hope it's not sports bikes only, they ugly.

 

[NullPointer]

I hope it's not sports bikes only, they ugly.

A speeder bike or swoop would make for some nice variety ;p

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

I hope it's not sports bikes only, they ugly.

Vespas haven't been confirmed yet (fingers crossed).

 

[Dommel]

Multi player is actually less chaotic as there's not that much contact compared to other cars spinning you out.

Small manageable bumps here and there, that's about it.

 

[Curufinwe]

How many new tracks?

 

[JP]

Pretty sure that bikes will play a big part in the new season pass over the next year or so. I wonder if we'll get mixed vehicle races at some point?

 

[Dommel]

How many new tracks?

Zero

 

[Akibared]

Holy shit I'm downloading this right now!

 

[XANDER CAGE]

How does this handle crashes? This looks awesome but I hate bike racing games where you can just bump everything.

 

[Edag88]

It's on the US store. https://store.playstation.com/#!/en...sion/cid=UP9000-CUSA00093_00-XXXXXXXXXDCBIKES

This says not available for purchase. You can get the $20 stand alone, but I can't seem to get the $15 expansion. What gives?

 

[DCS]

Can you get bikes & cars in the same race?

 

[Hedrush]

You just get reset when you crash, you can scrape along barriers, but if you hit them too hard you get reset.

No
