Driveclub more details

Bought this when the game was on sale recently with Season Pass 1, so much content for £7.50 that I paid.

If anyone is still looking to join a Club then let me know :)

One of the developers has confirmed that Driveclub VR has been made by the same team that made the original game.

Not sure if that means development was wrapped up on this before Sony shut Evolution down, or if it implies that Sony subsequently contracted it out to Codemasters and they continued working on it there.

Either way really looking forward to this. Just need Project Cars to confirm that their VR stuff is still coming.
 
I remember the anger of day1. My online mates and I are all super excited for the 1st big ps4 racer, something to take over from all the epic online sessions we had when we had ps3 and gt5.
All we were met with was the contacting server message. No game play, online not working. It was a massive massive letdown. Nothing improved for 2 weeks and I then sold the game.
It's terrible for people to lose their jobs, but this company were a total disgrace, so it's no surprise they have been shutdown.

While I agree that the launch was a disaster, it does not make the company a total disgrace. Sometimes developers need more time to complete their vision of a game, sometimes they get that time, sometimes they don't for whatever reasons or are forced to meet a deadline etc.

Often games are released in a bad state and they remain in a bad state. Very few developers continue to support the game months and months after release and turn it into a completely different game. This game was delayed but obviously needed even more time.

The game it ended up being was extremely good and you have to hand that to the developers. It's a shame they were shutdown as it was a very talented team.

I think it's a superb game I just find it to hard to progress. Some of the races I loose by huge amounts. It needs an super easy I'm crap at games mode so I can progress without having to win....... :D

Ive found this a little annoying too, just how variable the races are.

In some sections you can go from a rediculously easy race where even blindfolded you can beat everyone to some stupidly powerful car in the driving rain where its impossible to get higher than 8th in the next race (and with only one choice of car it just becomes annoying)

Difficulty difference between "easy" and "standard" is not really anything in comparison (there may be 10-15s difference in a 4 minute race for example)

The really frustrating thing for me is the "clean run" laps, where you either smash people out the way to get to the front asap and try and race away in the distance while doing a clean lap later in the race (if the race is long enough to do this) or lose one lap by hanging right at the back for the first lap to get the clean lap done first but find you are 30s or whatever behind the leader already before you start racing. If you try and race "normally" you get side swiped by CPU cars etc every single time no matter what you do

It be good to tell us exactly what races you mean so we can give out some advice - throw me a friend request and you can compare times so that might give you an idea...

Very little in DC cant be surmounted with practise, stuff like the Elite levels demands it.

DriveClub's final update is also its most generous


DriveClub looks to have received its final update and it's a scorcher, folding in some 15 new tracks from the recently released DriveClub VR for free.

The urban tracks follow on from an update back in February this year that introduced DriveClub's first city-based track which bought it one step closer to the hallowed Project Gotham Racing. Since then, Sony closed Evolution Studios, with many of the staff seeking refuge at a new team that's part of Codemasters.

The new urban tracks featured in DriveClub VR, though the limited visuals of that particular game - a necessity in order for it to hit the frame-rate required for a decent VR experience - meant they weren't seen at their best. Weighing in at some 5.75GB, the new update - as spotted by TeamVVV - is as generous in file size and content as many big expansions.

Also included in the changelog for DriveClub is a short message seemingly from the sadly departed Evolution Studios. "Thanks for your support," it reads. "Thanks for your commitment. Farewell."

Will Sony return to DriveClub for a PS4 Pro update, perhaps bringing 60fps to the racer? The message suggests not, and after the game's chequered past perhaps Sony is finally moving on from a racer that was once the face of the PlayStation 4. If that's the case then it's only right to say a fond farewell to DriveClub, a game that evolved into one of the finest arcade driving experiences in years.

Hi all (slight necro...) my son is getting into this now and would like to unlock the Bikes DLC. Does anyone know a way to do this (anywhere that might still sell working codes) now that the servers have been taken offline and it can’t be had on PS Store?
