In 2013 Sony announced a new and revolutionary racing game to help usher in the PlayStation 4 called Driveclub. This is the story of the racer meant to ride the wave of a new and exciting generation of connected social games but ultimately crashed at the finish line, leading to its studio's collapse and changing how we look at connected games forever.

Despite its troubled development and rough launch period, Driveclub still holds up. It really deserves a PS5 remaster or sequel.

@viniciuseduardobomfim Жыл бұрын

To this day, Driveclub remains an absolute graphics benchmark. No other racing game has better looking weather effects. It's sad that Sony will probably keep this IP in the fridge forever. If it only got remastered for PS5, it's criminal for this game to remain locked at 1080p and 30fps.

Imagine Sony is just this close to having "Forza like" game and Gran Turismo in one single platform, and makes Xbox look undesireable, but oh well, because they have no patient, and would rather chop down the entire studio than getting a big Win. if this game was given 2 more years, developed and managed with care, it will overthrow Forza. Sony had the chance to break through the Forza vs Gran Turismo stallmate, yet they blew it. Xbox literally until this day relying on Forza Horizon as a Crutch, and could crumble easily without it.

@Nero_PR Жыл бұрын

True. Weather effects in racing games even GT, Forza, Assetto Corsa, Iracing, RFactor 2, F1, Grid, Dirt Rally are all super bland compared to what Driveclub was trying to do. Not comparing more profounds aspects like driving physics that are totally different and way more complex in sim games but graphically we've stagnated significantly in the past 5-6 years in the racing genre, especially in lighting department (excluding ray-tracing).

@SapiaNt0mata 7 ай бұрын

you race against 11 other cars, you're locked to 30 fps, 1080p resolution. i'd rather sacrifice weather effects for higher resolution, higher fps, more cars on track.

Also The Crew made by Ubisoft was also focusing heavily on online multiplayer driving that focus on 4v4 racing. And in The Crew 2 they pretty much ditch the idea and focus on RPG farm and lotting system. Kinda weird how it still has 'The Crew' as the name but it doesnt relate to multiplayer racing
