The dashboard clock moves in real game time. Insane.

Such a shame the G27 doesn't work on PS4...
The clouds!
The trees!
The dashboards!
The god-tier lighting, which is insanely good - there are periods in all 5 of the vids where it's soooo close to photorealistic.
The sound...I can't...
And...watching this on my TV, the way God & Rushy & Evo intended...the power lines...I had to keep looking at them to see jagged, and while they're there, compared with my PC monitor they were much reduced.
Wanting this game so bad, October can't come soon enough.

Holy shit! He slows down in this video and you can hear birds chirping!
Yeah, ok I get the game looks exciting and all, but birds chirping have been in racing games since 1996

How does this game continue to blow me away? Every time I get used to how awesome it looks, new GIFs surface and blow my mind all over again.
I mean, HOLY FUCK!
I mean, HOLY FUCK!
I wonder how all of those nay-sayers are feeling now, after trolling those low-quality beta screenshots the other day? Gotta love that crow.

Well if that's the case you're in the wrong thread. Try finding the motorstorm thread somewhere, I'm sure you will enjoy it much better : )

Yup until the next terrible screenshot/s appears, 1st-2nd page guarantee, you will see "concerns" about #DRIVECLUB.
Driving into the storm clouds. Just imagine that in the rain.
Oh yessss. That sky. Outstanding.

I have the biggest grin on my face watching those gameplay videos in the OP.
Not only are the visuals amazing, but the racing actually looks fun too. The sense of speed and the track design is just perfect.

That looke very exciting to play. Visuals need no more gushing over, though its such a shame the weather won't make it day one. As an overall visual package with the weather included day one, i think would of been such an incredible thing. I do wonder how the weather is going to be incorporated into the events? Just another variable? Dedicated weather related events?
People keep mentioning the environments in this GIF.
What about the driver's fingers cramping off the steering wheel, relaying the intense concentration the turn is currently demanding? That is insane. Those are the kind of details that force me to attempt to get into the developer's head and wonder what possessed them to even make such a detail a priority. I haven't had this level of stimulation watching a video game in a long-ass time.
This kind of detail and polish seems to be a lost art in the modern industry; with its constrained development cycles and inflated budgets and all. Looking at these GIFs takes me back to the first time I played Goldeneye on the N64. I really don't think most developers/publishers realize how much these nuances add to the experience.
Too bad I don't like driving games.

That's just the driver changing gears using the paddles (you can see the revs getting down after the shift).

What's the best way to capture GIFs from YouTube videos, guys?

Driveclub videos gets me every god damn time i must have watched DC gameplay videos hundreds of time but everytime i see a new one it leaves in shock at how good looking this game is then it hits me even harder when i remember this is only a 1st gen software it will only get better i just can't comprehend that lol so thank you Sony, Cerny and all Playstation's 1st & 2nd party studios for making these amazing games.

I am terrible at racing games so I just buy them to drive around and look at the pretty graphics while listening to tunes. This will meet my needs well.

The closer we get to the release, the more the fact that I won't be able to play it with my old Logitech FF wheel sinks in, such a shame ;(

Thanks, but the quality isn't very good with that method. I think I'll stick with Giffffr.
Thanks again
----------------------
That view, though:
Not really, the driver is just getting ready to up shift using the paddles. Great animation tho.

Looks crazy good.
I'm willing to admit I've been very doubtful of how the final product would look.

That was pretty hilarious, a couple of low compressed screenshots, then BOOM, the game was downgraded, it was never going to look good, bullshots, etc.
It's amazing how fast some people are to jump on Driveclub, but when you get good media, like the videos here, they are nowhere to be found....

I think by more realistic he meant more serious than NFS because yeah this game is far from sim-style and that a good thing its hybrid

Seeing as they're volumetric clouds simulating real life, I guess you could say nature has the best artists - Evo have the technical skills to bring that into a game, and it's awesome.

Sweet mother of GOD. That looks Absolutley terrific. My hype just went up sooooo much. Can't wait for this game and the GAF league. Going to be so much fun!
This is from the E3 reveal trailer right?? Surely this can't be beta gameplay

Sounds good, looks alright, but still bumpercars and still dust effects that are just little poofs instead of actual blinding clouds of dust. :\
I dunno, I was kinda hoping we'd get a bit of a better presentation this gen.

It's only the shifting.
Forza 5 has what you describe though. Driver moving his fingers from time to time even when not shifting. It adds to the overall experience no doubt about it.

The dynamic shadows are insane. Look closely on the wall on the left.

this is the best looking game ever. by a country mile. its amazing that the environments are so fully complete AND look nearly CG/real in quality. tons of details with virtually no "videogamey artifacts". to top it off it looks to have maybe the best, most natural lighting ever seen too, which really seals the look together. stunning stuff. wish i had a ps4 just to marvel at this in all its glory.

You want to stop your TV from adding additional sharpening. For some TVs that means sharpness at 0 and in others sharpness at 50. For your TV it sounds like 50=0 so leave it there.
This game is looking very impressive and might get me to put FFXIV aside for a little time (and resub to Plus).
