Being that this is a racing game, they should have emphasized frame rate over resolution for resource management. 720p/60fps would have been better than 1080p if only at 30fps. Again taking into consideration the game type.

You still need to get the game,especially since it's free with PSN+!

I do plan to get the PSN+ version. It's actually a great way to try before you buy the full version, and at a lower cost to outright buying.
I really think people harping about 60fps in an arcade style racer are being fucking cunts. I mean, it's a fixed system and they can either pump up the visuals or pump up the framerate. Looking back on how many franchises have run 30fps and scored very well on Gamespot and every other website, why wouldn't Driveclub be like that?
None of this fanboy bullshit somehow undoes the fact that PS4 is running games like Call of Duty or any other cross-plat game better and faster than the XBone. None of this crap changes the fact that this game would run below 20FPS on the XBone, either. Some people really need to just shut the **** up. Pound for pound, when you compare what a small dev team like Evolution is getting out of the PS4 to what much bigger guys are getting out of that other machine, people talking that good shit don't have a leg to stand on.
It's so sad that resolution and graphics is more important these days. It's that the dev didn't want to 'compromise'. Racing games are all about performance.

So, Project Gotham Racing was a terrible racing franchise? All of them were 30fps.

I thought you said you weren't a cow, why are you going full retard to somehow prove 30fps is good for a racing game. All you're basically saying is the PS4 is less shit than the Xbox One with graphics. It's still shit though.

Project Gotham Racing was on a machine that was a full generation behind- Evolution could and should have prioritized framerate over resolution. That they did not shows us their misguided understanding of the genre they are developing the game for.

I tried going back to them the other day, they aren't great. But that's just my opinion.

Generation has nothing to do with it. It's a design choice with the game engine.

And I am saying, in context of all the extra power the PS4 gave them, where they could have achieved higher fluidity by taking a minor hit for the graphics, that that design choice was wrong and I will fucking call them out on it. Unlike Project Gotham Racing, which had limited resources to make do with to begin with.

Quite the opposite. I'm not holding a game up to artificial standards for the sake of a console war. Like, you can hold me to this, if GT7 is 30fps then I will be pretty upset about it. It's the kind of game that should properly have a high framerate just like twitch-kill FPSes like CoD or Unreal Tournament.
Feel free to bookmark this or just remember I said it.

So, just because others have done it, it doesn't make it a good choice. I'd say PGR games are a compromise as well. But graphics were a big part of that game, it had to look realistic. The gameplay isn't great though, I don't think the physics and sense of speed is quite there.

Limited resources like what? XBox 360 had more memory available to graphics as well as a slightly more powerful GPU. Plenty of 360 games achieved 60fps. PGR arcade racers were more focused on eye candy than high framerate.

But that's what I'm saying, it shouldn't matter if it's arcade or not. The gameplay of racing games can be effected by frame rate. Some other genres that are slower in nature are okay at 30fps,

Calling people out on fanboy bullshit with fanboy bullshit. A true system warrior...
Pretty sure Motorstorm and The Crew are 30fps. I had no problem with either of them.
Im sure you won't, nor will anyone else in this thread. I think most of the people are giving you guys a hard time because all the fuss playstation fans have made about 60fps. If one wanted to I could get find all the post but that would be a colossal waste of time.
Only issue I have is that they wasted time on a game that will get out shadowed by all the other racers. They should have stuck with Motorstorm to differentiate itself some more and stand out from the other racing games. More interested in seeing what Evolution could pull off with the powerful PS4 in a Motorstorm game. This Drive Club just looks boring. Sony will be cutting some jobs in Evolution when this game doesn't meet the expectations. Motorstorm would have been a safer bet before going with Drive Club. Evolution probably would have met a launch release with a Motorstorm game.
As far as I know, they never actually revealed "player count" per race. They simply changed the size of a "club" or "clan".
Day night cycle yanked.
Actually, no they didn't yank the day night cycle. You can still choose a start time and time lapse.
60fps goal fell short.
60fps was never a goal.
Better luck next time Fox.
I also find it pretty hilarious that lemmings want to talk about a racing game being downgraded because Forza 5 is probably the most downgraded game of next gen - the visuals are barely next gen.
don't know about consoles but all kind of racing games are bad when played at just 30 fps on pc, it has been this way since 1990s cisco racing game or something like that; even 40 fps still bad, above 50 is the minimum for racing games.
considering its leagues ahead of pcars id say its performing fine.
30 fps fine, oh console plebians settling for less every gen. Worst gfx, worst performance, damn must suck gen after gen.
considering pcars cant run at a locked 60fps on a 780ti with any aa at 1080p, id say this is performing quite well for its hardware given it looks a lot better than pcars.
