More than anything Evolution Studios needs to fix the Absolutely Horrible AI for all those people who do not wish to play online and those who still can't.

It's one thing that they needed an extra year "to get the online component right"(...)

But forcing players in that online component with an overly aggressive, pit-manouvering, on-rails and "Hand of God/satan" rubberbanding cheating AI is just diabolic!

It feels like they did this just for generating Playstation Plus subscriptions in mind and nothing else.

I seriously cannot believe that so many people have blind allegiance to Sony they are still trying to play this game. It was an average game no point getting around that. And the major features of an average game were not working on launch which is very bad.


No one should be supporting this garbage. There are better PS4 games that you can go buy.

I don't give a damn about the framerate I want to hear about the Gameplay!! Good lord what is wrong with gamers and the industry nowadays?! To hell with story, substance and gameplay. We got so and so resolution and framerate.

@k41m What good is fantastic gameplay when its so choppy its unplayable? Resolution and framerate do matter.....They matter a whole lot, the fact is that PC gamers have been running at 60fps for years and years and years now, all of the sudden next gen consoles release and game devs are going "Well we can't get this game to run in 60fps on the ps4/xbox so just cap the pc version at 30fps too" Its BS.


If you can't tell the difference between 30 and 60fps good for you, the rest of the world can and would love it if they kept producing games without FPS limitations.


now a days if they release a game on PC thats locked at 30fps its going to fail, The evil within is experiencing this now.

@k41m What exactly is wrong with wanting more out of a game? They'll reveal more of the gameplay ans story when they're ready, the game's still in pre-alpha most likely. And framerate has an impact on gameplay, higher fps makes the game more smoother and responsive, what is wrong in wanting that?

@Stebsis @k41m Hate to be that guy but FH2 is 30 frames per second and just about everyone who owns it has a blast every time they turn it on.


Frame rates do not make games fun.

@TroyTrojanGamer @Stebsis @k41m Ok... I never said anything to the contrary. It still doesn't change the fact that higher fps provides smoother and more responsive gameplay

@hippystank @TroyTrojanGamer @Stebsis @k41m Not really in the mood to argue with stupid comparisons this morning but really? How many games on next gen consoles run at 15fps? Locking it at 30 is very desirable for many games and in many cases going to 60 can cause the soap opera effect that makes many people literally sick.


People pay way to much attention to numbers they do not even truly comprehend these days.

@TroyTrojanGamer @hippystank @Stebsis @k41m Please don't start with that "soap opera" bullshit. This is a game, not a tv show. I hate tv and movies at high frame rate because they do look weird and can give me headache, Hobbit did that to me, but you actually play a game, you're involved in the movement and can control it so it's nowhere near the same as watching some tv show. I've never heard of someone getting sick from playing a game at 60fps

@Stebsis Google search it's your friend.


I'm not sure where you have been the past two years but a huge percentage of these games have tons of cut scenes so it's like you are watching a movie. So if you get sick watching movies with a high frame rate and the game has lots of cut scenes like (uncharted or Killzone) it makes some people sick.


But I'm not here to convince you what you need to think. I'm just pointing out there are plenty of amazing games that ran at 30fps and making them 60 would not make the game any better. Just like making something 1080p does not automatically make the gameplay better. It can make it worse most the time.

Driveclub isn't broken, it plays beautifully. It just doesn't go online almost ever, which sucks, but if that's ALL you care about then I feel bad, otherwise the singleplayer is more than enough to keep me busy till online's fixed or I get Bayonetta 2.

@hoyholyhoy You must not be talking about the same Driveclub. The one that I have played has very little features and terrible AI. This game is not even a fraction of what most other racing games usually are.


My biggest issue is how at the Sony PS4 reveal, that guy from Evolution Studios said something about this being the racing game they always wanted to make, which I think means they have very low expectations and ambitions. And a year delay to get the online components working, but when the game comes out, there is no online because its broken.


I have already contacted Sony and am waiting to hear if I am going to get a refund for this "game."

@hoyholyhoy It is fundamentally broken and still is actually. You cannot progress properly in the game without the online component so will you please stop spouting this rubbish as if it's going to make a bad game better.

Driveclub has been universally panned and no amount of hyperbole is gonna fix that. The game is shallow, devoid of any features and displays some of the worst racing AI ever to grace a video game.

You only have to take a look at Driveclubs facebook page to see this game getting absolutely slaughtered by the consumer.

This goes down as one of the worst AAA launch titles out there, along with the likes of Battlefield 4, Diablo 3 and The Sims. Yeah, if that isn't catastrophic, I don't know what is.

Make no mistake, even though you can get a little ways with the single player component (provided that you haven't rage quit with the AI constantly shafting you as you take that perfect corner) you cannot open up other features until the online aspect is functioning correctly.

So yeah, this game IS BROKEN.

I'm too old to bother with multiplayer shooters and there's where FPS and Res would be key. I do remember getting a new comp and card when Quake 2 came out and I was suddenly owning everyone with the rail gun.


But most of my PC or PS4 games it's not an issue. It was for Dark souls in that shanty town area.

"There's a 10 out of 10 review on GameSpot again" Who cares?

Jess is always much better than that.

And that is a very beautiful blouse too.


'High frame rate for shooters or for everything?'

Maybe not. I think the makers of New Order 1886 for the PS4 have a good point with their game that might be true for the new Assassins Creed game too.


Thanks

@SaintsRowLA "I think the makers of New Order 1886 for the PS4 have a good point with their game that might be true for the new Assassins Creed game too." No... just no. Higher frame rate is always better and there's no question about that, making it 30fps doesn't make a GAME more cinematic, it's a f**king game. There's nothing wrong with 30 and it works with some games like turn based genre, but devs shouldn't give some bullshit reasons like it'll look like something on Discovery Channel or is more cinematic

Quality threads as of late when Ps and frame rates make up a significant story base.

@Sam_021 I *think* it was moreso a dig on the consoles, who are always battling each other to tout support of that old standard. BUT, knowing Ubisoft, and how poorly they port games over to PC, there is definitely a finite chance that Ubi might choose to impose new restrictions (or lack of optimizations) on the PC.

Still, if I had to bet, I'd say it's a console-only remark.

Is there a thin, black line running across anybody else's bottom part of the video? Might be my video player on the GS5.

Also, here's my attempt at spelling Paul's last name: Ruschinski. ... Now to see if I was right....
