The only real insider on FW updates for PS4 is this person --> http://www.avforums.com/thr...
"this game isn't even using full blown physics and they chose really high end visuals over running like a proper sim" - Maybe you should go read about their vision for the game it's not trying to be a full blown sim racer. If you want a sim there is Project cars.
"The concept of the two games already sound very similar" - No very difference go and read about them in depth.
In short one is aiming for a full authentic sim experience. The other is trying to have a kind of hybrid between a sim and arcade title with a big social push. And many other differences and similarities but they are two quite different games.

"Am I taking crazy pills here?"
You are. The player gets set the time lapse it will dynamically move through that base on how fast the time lapse is set. Meaning it will go through day and night if you set it fast enough.
"The time of day is accelerated by x60, which is why the video covers from 6pm – 9pm in Chile in just three laps. Accelerating the speed of time is something you can choose to adjust before you race a...
Actually it does the player just gets to set how it works still Forza 5 don't deserve all the bashing back there.
"We allow you to customise the start time and the time compression (time lapse) in every race you set up, so you have lots of flexibility yourself" - So player gets to set it, it's not linked to your actual time zone or controlled by the devs.
Yh your right now re-reading it.
"This is actually a question that comes up quite a bit. Obviously, what we’re currently focussed on is getting the game perfect and building a community around it first, but if there is a call for weather effects, nothing is currently off the cards at this point. The game that you play day 1 on PlayStation 4 is not going to be the same game you play a year down the line because it will have evolved a lot. We’re keeping the development arc...
Haha so true I was quite an offender I admit :p. I have learnt a lot and grown since then.
For people that will be disappointed hope is not completely lost you get half of it ;) -

I get people are disappointed about the news but I don't see why it was overly unexpected giving what they have been saying they are aiming for from the beginning. And it being 30fps from the beginning.
If 60fps is a deal breaker for you in racing games then project cars is happy to feel that void. For people that like what DC is aiming to ach...
As I have always said I wished MS copied the IGC model it would really make me consider paying for gold again because I know the titles will be better.
"The game will only be developed for PC, PS4 and Xbox One - There is no chance of a WiiU or last-gen version." - Yep this looks fake. Activision are not going to be abandoning the install base of X360/PS3 any time soon.
"The setting is going back to the roots of CoD and will be set in a fictional version of The Great War (World War I)." - Doesn't make sense given that the teaser pic we saw had the solider wearing modern gear.
So expect ...
I don't know why people are so upset with 30fps because if it was a deal breaker for people this game shouldn't have been on their radar. There was little hope it was going to be 60fps given how the game looks. And from the trailer yesterday with the in-game section it's improved from the last we saw it.
Project Cars will happily welcome people if 30fps in a racer is a deal breaker for them.
Also add the previous statement No. He said for what they are trying to achieve -
“As we’ve got more familiar with the hardware, and also, looking at what we wanted from the game, we decided that 1080p, 30 frames per second is absolutely the best thing, because what that allows us to do is to deliver the most detailed cars in-race that you will ever have seen."
For what their goal is. It's the best compromise for them.
Edit -
"P-CARS are also 1080p/30fps on PS4/XO, confirmed last week" - No it wasn't I think you're mixing up with the crew.
There are targeting 60fps first -
“Our aim is always for the best gameplay experience possible and if that means 1080p/60fps is achievable without compromising ‘awesome stuff happening whilst racing’ then fantastic. So it’s the target yes, but it’s something every developer has to balance nearer to launch and it’ll be no diff...
Haha nice :p - More soon™...
It was for social features -
"DRIVECLUB will be a truly innovative, socially connected racing game, but the team requires more time in order to deliver on their vision — and I’m fully confident the game will surpass your expectations."

When you have them visuals something has got to give. Not much of a racing fan but for a game like this seeing as it's not trying to be a sim it should ok right?
"It’s allowed us to create some of the biggest tracks you will ever see in a racing game, with the most visually-dense environments, as well as a full global illumination system which allows us to make time of day, where shadows are cast, full-on reflections. It’s allowed us to push all those various areas&q...

"Can't tell if serious" - Cannot tell if you don't know how to use a search engine to look at the definition.
Seriously when will people stop being idiotic. A game cannot be indie if it's published by a publisher.
Also this isn't an indie game since it's published/partially funded by Sony.
I fully bet all this hearsay came from the stupid fusion console rumor from before.
