Not as arcade as need for speed but not as sim-like as project cars.
Somewhere in the middle but I'd say it was slightly more sim like than arcadey....

I loved it though and bought the season pass which is well worth the investment if you get it on a sale.

Not to mention a truck-load of trophies in the DLCs which are all fairly achievable with practice.

​It's much more fun than the last GT, which has become very stale. The game is nothing like the original release day reviews, it is like night and day. Hands down the best looking racer on the PS4. You won't believe the weather effects.

AWESOME Game! Cannot recommend enough

Same here. Box was filthy and broken. I threw away the box it was so bad, and replaced it with a disc box. Fortunately the disc itself cleaned up almost like new though.

Received the game, not very impressed with the disc and box they were filthy. Cleaned it up and it works fine but shouldn't really have to do that when it's from a supposedly decent company, you would think they'd clean it up a bit!

Thank you

Yes but when your driving along and crash and your hitting something that isn't there like a bush that's like a wall is bad. Why not finish the game properly they spent that much on effects like driving in the rain. You might get 2 hours game play out of this crap.

No you don't! It has a-synchornous multiplayer elements that don't need PS+, PS+ is only needed for live head to head racing. You can set challenges and stuff for other players without needing PS+

Would I need a Ps+ subscription to play this guy's?

Out of stock

The truth is, unlike most games nowadays (especially RPGs and SIM racers) you can't cheat the system/difficulty by grinding for hours to get better cars and then beat your opponents.

In this game, you have to master the course through rigorous trial and error sometimes, and there's no rewind feature and blue/red lines to tell you when to accelerate and when to brake. This game is based on pure skill, hence Evolution Studios is dead and buried.

Now if you don't mind me, I am going to boot up Forza/GT, because boy I feel like a good gamer with those games! :wink:

Yes you've always been able to customise the appearance of the car, albeit the way to do it was rather hidden. You unlocked different designs through your career and the season pass adds lots of extra unlockable ones as well. One of the last updates added special reward paints as well.

It's not a car collecting game like Gran Turismo or Forza Motorsport, you can't upgrade or modify the cars in any way, and it doesn't have the more limited upgrades that you get in Need For Speed either.

DriveClub was intended to a be a "social" racer, with the focus on driving and having fun and challenging friends/rivals, rather than the focus being on the cars themselves.

You can actually do that. :confused:

I was so disappointed when I found out that I can't drive outside of the tracks to visit the beautiful sceneries and possibly take my cars for a nice swim in those areas.

I bought and played for a bit but the fact you can't make a car ur own like build it up n change colour etc is a bit crappy. but then the last car game I enjoyed was one of the old need for speed undergrounds

thanks rimz..reading these made me go to CEX and buy a copy for 8quid!

Grainger Games are notoriously crap. Avoid.

Well, I would have ordered this if they hadn't of cancelled my PS4 order last week ☹️️

Very very good racing game. All the realism but with the boringness of Sims taken out.

Worst game ever, graphics top notch but game crap, I bought it for £15 and traded it in for about £4 . You hit invisible walls , track has invisible barriers round the edge. Would even bother spending £6.99. The price shows how bad the game play is.

It's a decent driving game as they go. The different cars and drive-trains have their own personality. It's a game that actually rewards feathering the throttle around corners when you have more power than grip.

Accelerating straight to full throttle in some cars punishes you and puts you in a skid. There are cars with less power that don't have that problem as well.

It's not Gran Turismo, but what it does do, it does well. I actually got hella bored of GT5 (last one I played), found the driving more fun in this. I am partial to collecting cars and lots of tweaking though, which is where Driveclub is a bit more restrictive. Also the whole DLC cars in the menus can **** off. I bought a product, not an advert.

Quick question. It seems the Season Pass adds a lot to this. Is it compatible though?

It says it is for "Driveclub Full Game for Playstation Plus". Is that the same as the disc version?

not as boring as gran turismo is it?

Thanks OP :smiley: I was holding out to get the VR one, but at this price there's no harm getting both :smiley:

the last driving game i really enjoyed was burnout paradise on the ps3. spent many an hour glitching :smiley:

​Seriously. I bet you don't even have a PS4.

Seems a good price. Tempted but was just too arcadey last time i tried it.

£7 in store if people can't wait. Just got a PS4 so is it worth a try?

Was looking at this in Cex (£8 there) recently and nearly bought it. Wish I had having seen these comments.

After reading the comments on here i have gone for this.

It got terrible reviews, much like Rory Mcilroy golf but that is far better due to more polish.

Hoping for something along those lines, heat added.

Just to echo over comments the game was a mess at launch but over time they made it a great game. Strongly recommend the season pass as well, vastly expands the single player experience and adds a lot more variety and supports stuff they added later like the weather effects.

Thanks OP, ordered. Heat added

My kids are 5 and 7 - is this too difficult for them?

Seen cheaper as digital download straight from PS store, would wait if you really wanted but fairly bad game so highly advise not to buy; cold.

It's a wonderful game; if they had been given an extra 6 months to polish it would have swept up numerous awards. Sadly it launched before it was ready and it pretty much killed it off before it got out of the blocks.

Worth every penny, as is the DLC.

Working my way through the DLC packs now, picked up the complete package on PSN for £7~ a few months ago.

This is how you handle paid DLC, developers. High-quantity yet still high-quality.

Even without the season pass, you're getting plenty of content for your money!

Bought the game when it was bundled with the Season Pass on the PS Store for £7.99 a while back and thought it was well worth it. Certainly good value under a tenner

Is it arcadey? this gens been lacking a decent Arcade racer so far

Best racer out there on PS4. Incredible game. At £6.99 this is a must buy. Get the bikes expansion too while you're at it, totally worth it

any racing games that are split screen on ps4 ?

And if you are new to Grainger, you get a 10% code (lasts a week) to use on next order, so could then perhaps order the other offers they have on, for example Star Wars Battlefront and Tom Clancy's The Division, making them £8.99 and £11.69 respectively.

Code only good for used games, so no good for FIFA17 for example.

AWESOME Game! Cannot recommend enough

Ordered a copy, thanks

​Just had a go on it and it's good...obviously will need to put the time and effort in :stuck_out_tongue:

It needed some serious fixing up! I never played it when it launched, but it's fantastic now. I have the Bikes DLC and the Season Pass too.

can you play local multiplayer on this?

Oh ok, thanks, will check it all out later on! Was fortunate to have purchased a PS4 during the mad frenzy last week :laughing:

think you still have to go into the store and 'purchase' some of the free DLC, it doesn't all appear as updates.

don't forget all the track DLC and some car DLC is free

Cheers, ordered. Heat :sunglasses:

Does this include add the dlc link bikes etc?

I would highly doubt it at that price
