Even considering that a number of people will have two accounts associated with this game - I saw this morning that a friend on my list with just 260XP is number 4.7+ million. That shot up a lot since the PS+ version came out.
Hopefully most with the free version will go on to buy the full version and season pass.
 
So... Any word from Evo about their plans for this month? Their FB page only documents the two new sprint tracks, but no word on a free car.
 

I didn't realise how different it looked back during 2013! :embarrassed:

Digging deeper: There seems to be a lot of concept art with the Zenvo ST-1. Wonder why that never worked out? Grid 2 had it.

Go to the games heading then keep clicking the right arrows till you get to the end. There's an Aventador too. I just find all this so interesting! :lol:

I think i'm going to get a PS4 so I can play this and the new NFS in November. I was going to get an xbox for Forza but my wheel won't work with it and tbh it looks fairly average compared to the PC sims I have. So Driveclub looks like pure fun and the graphical porn is something I need to see :D My eyes will be shocked when I go from playing at 100-144fps but whatever NFS is 30fps as well so I will get used to it.

Hopefully not too much of a culture shock for your eyes :) To be honest though, you'll be too busy battling those AI cars and having fun hopefully.

I switched GTA 5 to 30fps from 60 the other day and the first few minutes are pretty brutal but then you just get used to it and don't notice anymore. It's only when you start panning the camera around that you really notice all the motion blur.

Right now Driveclub full game is $14.99 on psn
 
Been noticing today how the photomode UI is more stable than before (less locking up on the brighter shots.) The leaderboards appear to be updating faster too 👍

Great decision. After getting fairly fed up with Project Cars a few weeks ago due to its numerous bugs and glitches, I started thinking about buying an XBone and F6 and ditching PCars and the PS4 (which I love by the way). So glad I didn't though because this game came up on my radar and after a lot of research about it, I purchased DC along with the season pass about two weeks ago.
Since then I haven't looked back, it's the only game I have played since.
It's absolutely brilliant. Keep in mind that DC is a SIMcade title (note my emphasis on the sim part of the description).
This is no Ridge Racer or NFS, there is a depth and nuance to the physics and handling which has pleased me no end and is exactly what I was after. It falls in that happy space between simulation and arcade leaning towards the former imo.

Yeah that's why I'm going with Driveclub over Forza because my wheel won't work with either of them and Forza looks weird playing with a controller. Driveclub is more of an arcade game which is what I want if I'm using a controller instead of my G27. Also I'm a Playstation fanboy and the xbone is the inferior console so I would rather spend a little bit more for a PS4. Might even keep it for a while to play the sony exclusive titles and see if GT7 ever shows up 👍

I play DC since a couple of days and I don't have the feeling I am playing a 30 FPS game. I runs very smoothly. The only regret I have is that I should have bought it sooner :lol:

Same here, except I've never played DC. I'm actually trading in Project CARS for this game, for two reasons: (1) I never play the former anymore, not because of all the glitches and bugs and other things, but because I got bored with it very quickly. And, (2) I made a mistake, in that I should have bought Driveclub instead of Project CARS (admittedly, hype got the better of me and it led to an underwhelming and disappointing experience for me). I'm going to rectify that mistake this week.

EDIT: I have rectified said mistake, as of this edit. I'm already driver level 13 but I need a decent club to join.

Aside from TW3, I've been playing DC, rocket league and PCARS. I'm a big sim racing fan but my god do the former two put PCARS to shame in terms of fun and user friendliness.
The thing is... Compared to PC sims like rFactor, where you are often advised to edit config files outside the game and spend most of your time tweaking settings so that downloaded mod content plays acceptably, pCARS is a breeze.

Everything is relative :)

Agree 100% but that's why I'm a console fan, it's the speed and User friendliness that counts for me. (PCARS is improving though).
 
Guess PD aren't the only ones putting more than one Skyline in their games :sly: (I'm regarding the GTR as a spiritual Skyline)
At least Evolution didn't put more skyline then something different like audi's because that is what PD did to Gran Turismo.

I still maintain that the Skyline proliferation in GT was due to the tuner scene in Japan, with each of the models having it's own fans. Audi's wouldn't get represented in quite the same way with Driveclub as most other motorists hate Audis in the UK - that'd be because the majority of Audi drivers are asses though and not because of the cars
