Livery editor?
God, I hope so.
Most specifically this.

If this is the PS4's Smuggler's Run, I'm in.
Indeed.
Actually, yes.
They initially touted the game as an online, car club with friends kind of game. Never sounded like a single player at all.
So, this is good news.
I remember someone from ES mentioning something about a customization reveal. I take the customization to mean visual only in this game and not performance based?
Seeing how the majority (all?) of the cars are super cars, I don't mind if it was visual only.
Anyway, I still can't believe Sony is putting Driveclub up against Gran Turismo this year...strange decision imo.

I wonder if it will be 30fps with the feel of 60fps. DmC jokes aside, this is a thing that people who have played Forza Horizon seem to report. Could be a decent compromise.
Yep, Horizon pulled that off very well.
Personally, i'm fine with arcade racers being at 30fps. Sim based games however, is a must at 60fps.
I hope so......

From the pics it looks like it.
"between arcade and simulator"
"damage yes but only for visual effect"
"not a simulation based racer"
ok, so this will be an online arcade racer.
everybody says "like horizon", but let me remind you that horizon had the forza physics and handling model to start with (and simplify as needed).
if it manages to play/handle like a next gen horizon, then it will be the best arcade racer until further notice.
if it manages to play like a next gen pgr then again perfect. second best thing. I also read here some time ago that they got one key player from pgr series, so more kudos to that happening.
but, if it will play like a next gen burnout/nfs/whatever simplified arcade game, then different ball game.
definitely very interesting launch game. unless polyphony pulls some next gen gt prologue, the most interesting car game on ps4.
also, I expect 30fps since the info says "visuals as important as gameplay"

Will this game make me orgasm like the guy at the reveal said.
That would be almost unfathomable.

This!
One of the main things I was looking for in this game since it would help distinguish teams.
Also the touchpad would be interesting to use for an editor. Wish it was confirmed in the article....

Now you got me interested! I really thought that this would turn out to be a MMO game.
Not really a fan of these two things though:
I prefer simulation racing games to arcade ones. It still remains to be seen what they mean by this.
And this is not good at all...
I guess I'll just buy a Game of the Year edition if they ever make one, or I'll just wait for the game and the DLC to drop in price.
I'm most likely not getting a Ps4 at launch anyways, so I can wait patiently...

I want to see more! Will be one of the launch games I'm buying.

boo! They're gonna nickle & dime the fuck out of us. It better have a big selection of cars.
The fact that this was even addressed makes me believe there isn't much of a focus on the single player

Really disappointed that we have a boring arcade/sim racer instead of a new MotorStorm.
Maybe it'll impress me as we see more, but right now I'm just sort of apathetic to this game.
MotorStorm would have looked rad with all the mud and fluid physics, could have really put compute to good use and perhaps made a shame of that early PS3 render.

maybe they are just saving it for a second gen title since visuals will be really important for a next-gen motorstorm.

Or how about devs don't use it at all? If it's not better than pressing right or left on the d-pad it's a mistake.
They didn't strip anything out of the retail version they continued to support the retail version with DLC.
Also where did you get this insane $200 estimate? It's $60 and that includes the large rally expansion.
If they stripped the DLC from the game why do they always give free day 1 DLC on all Forza games?
Yep it looks nice but not 30 fps nice.
Shinobi ninja is scary yo.
Came to post this. I really hope this isn't a clue that playing offline is now a added feature

the lighting in this game looks kinda bad, especially compared to some of the shots in the gt5 vs forza thread. also the sky box is too boring
Probably 30fps like PGR.
Looked real to me.
EDIT: Just saw the screens. Lighting downgraded?

This sounds like it's own game... not Forza or PGR.
Doubt it. Just looks like a different environment.
