Will be watching this progress enthusiastically.
I'm not defending anything. You are however talking crap.
You are right, but I would say that DriveClub in fact looks fantastic because it is locked at 30fps. But this isn't about DriveClub and its not comparing apples with apples.
Like orakle says, DriveClub has been good fun, but this is where real racing is at and the visuals look plenty nice enough to me.
They're not Indy cars and they're not mormally that loose on your couch, no.
In real life however....
Yeah, I've noticed that a fair bit on replay videos.
Don't be a muppet.
This video shows exactly why I'm hyped for this game. No pushing to the front like arcade racers. You stand or fall by your driving ability, end of.
Been doing some rFactor 2 at our local sim driving centre. As a playstation gamer, it's been a real eye opener I can tell you. So glad PS4 is getting a real sim.
The physics look fine. In that view, driving with a controller as is obvious in the clip, you can't realistcally judge them anyway. Real sim enthusiast don't drive in that view. It's way too slow and easier to read the lines, so offers no realism and no real immersion.
Darren at Inside Sim Racing rates them as "proper sim" and that's more than good enough for me.
As someone who loves his karting, that looks really realistic. Can't wait!
And it will let me tailor my T300RS to 180°, the only downfall of DriveClub as far as I'm concerned.
Lol! Funny bubble up
I just want to be able to lose that glare. I have highly light sensitive eyes. It's weird driving flat out fir half the race, then virtually driving blind when the track turns toward the sun. I have to set the time to midday but can't on multiplayer.
I want it realistic, but not dehabilitating!
Gotta love Yorkie, he posts some great and REAL racing. Well worth a subscription. But I think turning off ABS and traction control was part of the problem there. I will be turning off all of the driver assists (steering/braking etc) but I can't imagine realistically turning off ABS in real life? Traction Control perhaps.
Still, looks the business physics wise. Roll on April I say. :)
Looking again, it was definitely a mistake going up the box instead of down. You can quite clearly see the shift up to sixth on the steering wheel a second before frantically trying to downshift but the traction was already gone.
Mishap aside, I wish I could drive my Thrustmaster T300RS like that.
"That particular part of the track there is a sudden drop and he downshifted as he went over it so his rear wheel speed became different than his travel speed as he landed causing wheel spin and his car to lose control."
I think you're right, but it looked like he went in a little too aggressively to begin with and then shifted up a gear (to 6th?) by mistake and the scramble to get back down the box again left him high and dry over the dip?
Just...
"You'll just never beat a nice, traditional controller for playing games."
That may be true for many genres but for anything vehicular, it will be a game changer. I personally want it for Project Cars and the like, but it will work well with flight/tank sims too.
And it's not just these regular vehicle sims that will be transformed. Imagine VR support for No Man's Sky? Could be incredible.
I've got it pre ordered and I definitely won't be cancelling.
I love the Ken Block vids too, but they're staged. Next to nothing in them is unedited. You can always tell by the amount of rubber on the course that there has been numerous attempts. And that's where it doesn't fit with an intended racing simulator. I've got DriveClub for that sort of racing.
Doesn't detract from the mans talent mind.
"Who doesn’t love a bit of drifting action every now and again?"
Got to be honest, I detest it. It's the one thing I've seen touted with this game that really, really puts me off. On gravel? Yes please. On Tarmac? Really?
If I wanted to be Vin Diesel I'd join a gym....
An intelligent comment, bubble for you.

You ain't right in the head mate....
Yawn...
