Now why is this one like rad club mentality and Japan was like they've been told to pretend they didn't know a video game was real until they filmed the commercial? Lol
The sun is reflecting directly into the camera from the car, meaning that the camera is where the sun is. If you hold a torch at eye level, you will not see any shadows where you're looking. That's what the sun is doing in that shot, it's just really low.

I have to admit that it took me a while to get used to this, but it is entirely physically accurate - we don't use fake shadows or mask sunlight by ambient occlusion, which often hides this 'effect'.
Under strong lighting conditions and from the right angle there won't be a shadow visible beneath the car. To show this I took a car out into the Evo car park, parked it so the sun was from directly behind and held a camera up in the air at similar angle to the chase camera.
Nothing is faked or baked in this image eitherNumber plates have been obviously obscured though.

Yeah it's just how lighting works. It's weird that some people don't understand this and there is anough shadow in all the footage to see how it changes.
Anyway, thanx for taking the trouble to explain.

No need, we know what inspired the game.
Shortly after some Sony budgetary cut backs all Christmas parties had to take place in studio offices, hiring halls or whatnot was no longer an option.
Late into the night, after the photocopier broke, the only fun left to be had was the age old 'Office Chair Race'.
Two guys retrieved their chairs from their desks, before long they were wheeling up and down the office corridors.
From there on in, the worlds finest corridor racer was born.

WTF WOW! Where is this gif from? This is simply amazing. Cannot wait to download this game and play it.
Haha, let's use it, or we'll be stuck with this.
Any other ideas? lol
Shit no, that's awesome.

I've ran out of reaction GIFs to use when expressing my amazement of DC GIFs. So I'll just say WOWAWEEWA!
Beyond incredible. Shame weather isn't there for launch day!

This is amazing lol. Shame you had to do it, but yea, some people need to understand.
And your point is...?
...Holy crap
Loool what does that prove when it's not the same angle? At the same angle in the video there is shadowing underneath the car present just like in the video.

I love how Rushy actually showed a real life shot and we still have people somehow debating if it's right.
dude. he just proved you completely wrong. stop that.
I've never done day one digital before so I'm not sure about the midnight part, but release day is Tuesday, not Wednesday.
Edit: Whoops, I'm in the wrong region. Sorry.
tuesday in the US, wednesday in EU

Huh, I missed this post.
Um, it may or may not be mature... but I'm curious to know what role (if any) Ged Talbot (ex-Bizarre) had in the game. I know he was lead on PGR3 and PGR4 and the significant comparisons to the PGR series have me curious. Anyone else from Bizarre play a role in creating Driveclub?
Lol that just makes Rushy's pic that much stronger. The lighting hitting the car in that picture is different from the one in game , mainly the lighting hitting directly. Even with real evidence, people still doubt smh.
