I just bought this today. Perfect timing
Is that you, Gerstmann?
Handling feels amazing to me. Really satisfied with the game at present.
People have different tastes. I didn't read his review, but what did he not like about the physics? Did he expect something more arcadey considering the game is labeled as Arcade? Cause while it's an arcade game, the physics itself are a bit more towards the sim side, even though the physics aren't as Sim as what GT physics are.

Pretty sure they said it wouldn't make release when they first showed it but prior love to bitch and just can't enjoy a good thing when you get it
Fucking Wowzers! Looks nuts! The handling is just one of the best feelings I've had playing a game of any kind in years. Loads of new content added so those jumping in now...holy moly you're in for an absolute blast of epic proportions! I've got numerous times in the top 50/100 but be nice to get even more gaffers added 8). The challenge mode is just f'n unreal...gives the game unlimited legs really. And now with weather, Christ it's just going to be epic!!! Yes, I like this game 8)

Off topic a little but can you buy DC on PSN yet?
I checked and it still said unavailable.. But then when it had the PS+ exclusive next to it, it said $50.
What's going on?

The fact is everything is working now. So yeah, be interested to see if anyone re-review it...once weather is added, coupled with the latest new events and photo mode, I'd be hoping it would get a few more 8 and 9's. Though for me, it's a 10 all the way.

I played a bit of this game and loved it. Definitely an example of shaky release though, no doubts on that. What I really hope is that it will get some kind of "complete edition" later and I will buy it alongside my PS4.
Ain't a thing wrong with the handling.
The store is just preventing you from buying the full price edition since you're a PS+ member, maybe?
The upgrade edition should be available, and it's basically the full game with the PS+ discount applied.
Just get this one if you can.

Rain droplets on the camera in third-person view makes sense when you think about how it's being viewed:
Sneaky! I see what you did there. Driveclub TV!

He has gone on multiple, nervous rants where he just slams the game. (On their podcast) It comes off strange because nobody else on the podcast has apparently played the game for themselves. I can understand not liking the controls, but he just states that there is no redeeming factor to it at all, and that it is simply a bad game.
That's just weird to me.
I haven't played this game in a while, but wait what?
Did they patch out the mappable controls? I remember being able to set gas brake etc to whatever I wanted when i played it. Started wishing that the ps4 still had pressure sensitive face buttons as I like to use x to accelerate in racing games of past.
Edit: Unless there are some things that can't be changed and I didn't play around with it enough.

Awesome! So wait, are we getting a blog update or is it actually coming out tomorrow?
Sounds like user error.

Had to re-read it, but it's definitely coming out tomorrow along with a post discussing all of the changes.
I do hope all of the previously shown weather types/effects made it in.

I did what?
Blah I messed up what I was trying to get across there, I know GT physics are much more Sim, I meant to have aren't instead of are.
All tracks will feature weather effects, even the old ones, but not all may feature all weather conditions (snow in India is unlikely, for example).

Awesome news! Whoooo!
And the handling is perfect already.

He pretty much called it a gabage game, totally unfun and badly made. Dude hates games, so not surprising.
Coming out, Rushy confirmed it in the OT.Awesome! So wait, are we getting a blog update or is it actually coming out tomorrow?
Sounds like user error.

I'm afraid it appears Jeff has become a grumpy man-boy with age.
DC had the most controller accessible/rewarding handling physics of any racer I've played.
And thunder and lighting.
Oh yes. And I hope we'll get fog too!
I'm completely against this practice. Developers/publishers need to be punished for not releasing products in a "complete" and/or working state instead of being encouraged to do so with re-reviews of their games.
Only now is Driveclub nearing the state it should've been released in in the first place.

This is pretty awesome but I still want the replay mode.
Perhaps now that weather is in the PS+ version won't be too far away. I'm not really interested in driving games so I was more wanting this is a visual showpiece for my PS4, and was happy to wait to play this until the weather effects were in.
Once they delayed the PS+ version, it kind of makes sense to wait until the weather was in (AKA the game was finished), before releasing it.

In hindsight, they should have just delayed the launch until January. I'm sure they wish they did just that.
Yeah, scattered volumetric fog being lit up by your headlights would be amazing.
And that new Norway track should be getting more hype. They're actually putting this bridge in. :O

Cool as I haven't finished Tour Mode and didn't obtain all possible stars yet. Excited for tomorrow
