Mountains and valleys are filled with trees, while buildings, walls, fences, and other man-man structures are seen scattered across the landscape far into the distance. The opening pre-race sequences demonstrate this perfectly with the camera panning across locations that are large in scale and intense in detail. If you can't hit a sustained 60fps in a racing game, a locked 30 is a decent alternative and ensures consistency in response. Performance in DriveClub remains at a rock-solid 30fps regardless of how many cars or effects are on-screen. This more conventional approach hasn't limited Evolution Studios' flair for visual exposition, instead allowing for the developer to deliver a level of graphical complexity above that of most other new-generation console racing games - only Forza Horizon 2 provides ample competition. The emphasis here is firmly on re-creating the feeling of working within a collaborative racing team, mastering new courses and cars, sending and participating in challenges online, while unlocking content as you go.

However, beyond these artefacts the results are generally excellent and a cut above most PS4 and Xbox One releases.ĭriveClub avoids the open-world spectacle of Forza Horizon 2 in favour of a more traditional set-up where courses are selected via menus and online interaction is directed to specific areas. Most edges appear clean and smooth giving the title a distinctly super-sampled appearance across many objects, although this level of quality doesn't quite extend across the entire scene.Īs impressive as this sounds, unfortunately there are still some noticeable jaggies around the bodywork of the cars, on fences and some of the walls surrounding the track, where the post-process anti-aliasing algorithm appears to miss quite a few edges at certain angles.
Evolution Studios uses a variety of anti-aliasing passes, including a post-process FXAA, temporal and pixel-based passes, along with further algorithms that work directly on materials themselves.

The result is a game that is beautiful to behold, and considerably more impressive than the shaky builds of 2013.Īs expected, the experience is delivered in native 1080p with some impressive image quality gains courtesy of a complex anti-aliasing system that covers several bases. During this extended development period, Evolution Studios' original goal of 60fps racing gave way to a more realistic 30fps target, using the extra rendering time per frame to create state-of-the-art effects work worthy of the generational leap represented by the PlayStation hardware. LMFAO and you want to compare GT to Forza? It's been done for the last 10 years.and GT was out performed by Forza on each account.It's been a long road for DriveClub, initially slated for release alongside the launch of the PlayStation 4, delayed until early 2014, then pushed back again to Q4 - a decision-making process that yielded genuine dividends based on our experience with the game at E3 and Gamescom. Forza has been rated the highest racing sim since launch for the past 10 years. Driveclub does not and GT is just hundreds of duplicated cars.ĭriveclub will be a great launch title for the PS4.but it won't compare to the likes of Forza.Not even GT has been comparable to to Forza since Forza was first released. Where is Driveclubs tuning and customizing options?įorza already HAS driveclubs as one of the MANY features in the game.so really driveclub is just a fraction of what Forza already has.Īside from that and so much more.Forza has the licenses to put in several hundreds of car manufactured cars that range from all around the world and are actually cars car enthusiasts care about. Tuning and customizing are huge features in forza. Forza will also have a boatload more features over driveclub simply becuase Turn10 have 10 years experience already implementing features while this will be the first iteration of driveclub.ĭamage is also missing in driveclub which can be seen in the vid where we all know Froza are masters of it.
Since Driveclub and Forza are both coming out as a next gen game on next gen systems at launch, then it's a fair comparison.ĭriveclub is just nice looking but not as nice looking as forza. Lvl_up_gamer 3292d ago (Edited 3292d ago )
