Tales Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 Tried the plus edition some. I suck so bad. Dead last every time. But the game looks gorgeous, and I like the idea of driving on Norwegian roads and the price half decent. So I will be upgrading, hoping for the slim chance I will approve. I have seen the Atlanic Road being in the game, but when I quickly googled the list of Norwegian courses it's not listed. Is it in the season pass?
somme Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 I was awful at first, but got better. I'm mostly dead last online still though. But I haven't played a lot of online yet. Hope they add more courses soon. Much prefer those to new cars.
Jimbob Posted July 28, 2015 Posted July 28, 2015 Yeah, hopefully they add a few more tracks to the game. Reading through their twitter, they are adding new music in a future update. New packs are out, Horsepower pack and Unite in Speed Tour pack. Nissan GT-R NISMO. Ferrari LaFerrari FXXK. McLaren P1 GTR. Ferrari FXX Evoluzione. Renault Mégane R.S. 275 Trophy-R. 11 Events to play in single player Tour Mode. Five new trophies 11 new Events
RedShell Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 So what's the dealio with the PS+ version of Drive Club? Is there any point in downloading it if you already have the retail version, does it use the same save file?
James Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 There is less content, it only has the India tracks, its not the full version so I wouldn't even consider downloading it.
RedShell Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 There is less content, it only has the India tracks, its not the full version so I wouldn't even consider downloading it.Ah. I was hoping it could just be used as a way to play the game without needing to put the disc in my PS4.#laziness
Daft Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 And that's why I went digital with Drive Club. Sometimes i just want to be lazy, put Spotify on and drive really fast. Still can't get over how good this game looks. If all the dynamic stuff is standard for the gen after this, I'll be happy.

Still can't get over how good this game looks. If all the dynamic stuff is standard for the gen after this, I'll be happy. I picked up the digital edition of this when it was released. Think it was £35 at launch, which is insane for a brand new digital game. It's been nice seeing how the developers have supported this game since launch. The game is almost completely different to the one that launched. It's infinitely better. I wonder what it would score now if reviewed again. I'd give it a 9.

I've lost so many hours to this wonderful game and hopefully when the private server update comes into play, we can have race nights!
Cookyman Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Yet another update! DriveClub v1.21 Patch NotesNew Supercar awarded for reaching Driver Level 66: The Renault R.S. 01! 12 new 'SPRINT' variations of DRIVECLUB tracks for Time Trial & Challenges: Cayoosh Point, Putre, Munnar, Goshodaira, Holmastad & The Kyle (including unique Sprints for the standard and reverse track versions). 10 more ELITE Driver Levels from 66 to 75. All levels have a new reward. The Rimac Automobili Concept_One and VUHL 05 are better! We've modified the vehicle performance and handling for these 2 cars based on further collaboration with manufacturers and community feedback. Adds support for the Thrustmaster TH8PA manual gear shifter (including sequential shifting and clutch support). Car statistics are now detailed on the vehicle select screen: Drivetrain, Engine Position, Kerb Weight and more. New default order of cars in the garage/vehicle select. Rebalanced the frequency of wet weather and night time events in Random Event. Added Club leaderboards to all Tour events in addition to the standard solo leaderboards. New option when sending a challenge to filter your Friends list to show DRIVECLUB players. Stunning new #PS4share photo added to the loading screen. Includes general improvements for game performance, stability and usability. Support for the Ferrari 488 GTB (coming to PlayStation®Store as a free download).
Jimbob Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Aye, read about this. Nice update. Was reading through their Twitter, people are asking for different tracks and Evolution are listening. They said more tracks are coming soon.
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 I tried that Sprint Mode yesterday. It's actually quite good! Not usually a fan of the time trialy things, but I quite enjoyed doing this. It's just short enough to keep it interesting (and trick you into having another go because you fucked up on the third corner). Game is still awesome. Moar tracks, please.

Cookyman Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 I'll just leave this here... This EU DriveClub Deal Is An Absolute Steal We have no hesitation saying that DriveClub is one of the best games on the PlayStation 4 these days, but if the launch issues put you off then there's never been a better time to pick it up. Sony's currently selling the main game alongside its Season Pass for a mind bogglingly cheap £15.99 on the European PlayStation Store – but only if you're a PlayStation Plus member. To put the offer into context: you'll get almost 100 cars and over 200 events for this criminally low fee. And that's in addition to all of the various updates that Evolution Studios has added for free since launch, including the infamous weather patch and several all-new modes. Even if you're not into racing games, we'd recommend this for the price. Don't delay, buy today, etc
Fierce_LiNk Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 I'll just leave this here... Crazy deal. Might be good for one of the PS4 newcomers like @Ronnie or @Rummy. I went ahead and bought the Season Pass. I've been after it for a while and I can't resist at that price.
Jimbob Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 People whom have been on the wall about Driveclub, get this. £15.99 is one of them deals that sounds too good to be true.
Rummy Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 I've got the PS+ edition d/l'd and installed, yet to play. Will give it a good crack then see what I think.
ipaul Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 Can someone please accept NE club request - my tag is Citizen343
Hero-of-Time Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 The Pan European Game Information board has rated Driveclub Bikes for PlayStation 4 in Europe. The rating is separate from Driveclub‘s, a racing game published by Sony Computer Entertainment and developed by Evolution Studios that came out in October 2014. Perhaps an announcement will be made today?
Fierce_LiNk Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Shouldn't Drive Club bikes technically be Ride Club?
